you have to buy one soundcard since your computer have a soundcard..

Then you have to get a jack -> RCA cable and connect it from the two soundcards to 2 different channels of the mixer..
go to the settings of vdj assign to play each deck from different sound card... and here it is! Voila!

you can mix the 2 songs through djm800

Just that simple!

I ended up saying screw it and not mess with it and just went and got Serato/Virtual Vinyl


2 cdj1000's into serato/vv box which is usb to computer, out of that box into djm800 out of djm800 to efx-1000 out to speakers

i gave it a good long though and unless im using like ableton with it, i really dont see a point of having my DJM-800 midi attached to the computer... all i can see is it causing random glitches to a perfect mixer... if there were extra midi assignable buttons on it that would be another thing.. i wanna pick up a midi touch pad for quick loop buttons and what not
