So i will buy a wireless mouse and use my macbook's keyboard. Now i have the two usb ports free for the vci and a soundcard. Now i have to switch my focus from a firewire to a usb-soundcard. Which usb-soundcard do you guys suggest. It has to be compact and stable.. I don't need very much options, i only use it for traktor pro.

I would suggest the NI range!
Presonus is good, RME rocks like no other but they just don't do small-ish interfaces!

the RME Fireface 400 is pretty small.
(8 inch - 6inch - 1inch) Roughly

NI Audio 2 DJ?
I got an NI Audio Kontrol 1 and love it. Pretty rugged and portable and is set up for using Traktor, either in internal mode or external mode and is great for production too.
Not too pricey either considering.CLUB OF JACKS - RELEASES >>TRAXSOURCE

RME is king but definitely not for a tighter budget

The NI Audio 2 is very low priced and portable, i have to admit the Audio Kontrol 1 also looks very interesting..
Going to check out some reviews about those 2 cards...
Thanx for all the advice!

Get a FireWire 400 6 Circuit to 9 Circuit lead and a power supply (provided by Presonus) and use a Presonus Firebox.

Doesnt matter that the Firebox is FireWire 400.

What about the Echo Audiofire 2? Seems like a good alternative to me
