Numark Mixtrack (Pro) 3
The Numark Mixtrack 3 and Numark Mixtrack Pro 3 are the same controller except that the Pro version has an integrated 4 channel output sound card and costs $50 more. If you use the non-Pro version, you would need a splitter cable or separate audio interface to be able to preview tracks in headphones.
The microphone input on the Pro version is not available to the computer through the controller’s sound card. It is mixed with the main output in hardware, so this controller’s sound card is not suitable for broadcasting or recording the inputs. If you want to use the controller for broadcasting or recording, getting the non-Pro version with a separate audio interface with a microphone input is suggested.
