DVS questions about running 4 turntables w/rekordbox

I'm currently running 2 SL1210 with a djm600 with Rekordbox DVS. I have 4--SL1210's and most of vinyl is old and damaged so I run into problems using all 4 tables. I have a few questions 1. Can I run 4 turntables on a single Rekordbox DVS hardware interface and software interface. Was wondering if I could isolate the 2 stereo channels on the inputs and outputs of the interface and use each set of stereo channels like 2 and assign them to 2 different deck displays on the software? I understand I will lose sound quality using spliters and get a mono output from each turntable but I can work with that on Certain songs. If not next question. 2.Is it possible to purchace another Rekordbox DVS package and run the two seperate Rekordbox DVS hardware and software Simultaneously all on one Laptop running Windows 10? CPU usage or latency should not be a problem because this is a dedicated laptop only contains music files and the Rekordbox software needed for the DVS. And my last question would be my last resort because I love the Rekordbox DVS product I waited for years for Pioneer to come out with one because I trust Pioneer Quality and I do and have done tons of of bookings and every headliner was allways pleased to use Pioneer. 3. Can I run Tractor DVS or Serato DVS Simultaneously with my Rekordbox DVS and the software on a single Laptop running Windows 10? I'm trying to avoid buying Tractor or Serato or Another Laptop. I all ready have 2 laptops but I refuse to use that laptop because I like the ones I'm using for music to be strictly dedicated to my music I don't even go online with them. Thank you for your time.

Hey Christopher,

If you wanted to use 4 turntables for DVS, you'd have to use a hardware interface which supports 4 turntable inputs like the DJM-900NXS2. If you only wanted to use 2 of them for DVS, then there is a larger variety of hardware options. Unfortunately you can't "split" the DVS signal to control two different software decks, stereo signal is required for the input.

What you could do, again, depending on the hardware you're using, is perform an "instant double" to move the song that was on deck 1 to deck 3, then use DVS to control deck 1 while the song plays on deck 3 without control.

You could also use 2 computers and 2 interfaces, routing outputs from each into a mixer. You couldn't use 1 interface for two computers with 4 turntables (again, unless using a device which supported it, like the 900NXS2 above).

If using the DJM-900NXS2, you could use all the listed software, but with other devices (like the Interface2), it would be restricted to rekordbox. You'd need a Club Kit license for Serato, a Core subscription for rekordbox, but only the software license for Traktor.

I'm sure you'll have other questions, so hit me with 'em!
