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 $100 more. If you use the non-Pro version, you would need a splitter cable or separate sound card to be able to preview tracks in headphones.
