Hello,

Welcome on the forum.
The sound card to preview and play needs
- at least 2 independant stereo outputs, so it can be a 4.0, 4.1, 5.1 or 7.1 sound card,
- separate physical outputs, so you must avoid anything called virtual surround 5.1 or 7.1 (virtual surround means stereo virtualised to look like surround).

The sound card I suggest are:
- Sodial USB 5.1 sound cards, very cheap

Or Conrad USB sound card with 7.1 output

and once you have it, here is the sound settings for Djuced

Hello,

Here is a guide to set Hercules Muse Pocket XL LT3 in Mac with Djuced, it works in the same way with another multichannel USB audio card.
