I have SP2 XP and a creative Xfi sound card. I can see that a signal is getting to Scratch Live from my SL1210MK2 decks, but get no sound output. I have tried all of the obvious things and have the latest drivers and software for Scratch and the Xfi card. It as if the sound card isn't picking up the sound input. Has anyone else experienced this and have a fix?

You have to run the output of your mixer into the input of your sound card.
Also make sure you have that input selected in your audio options on your computer.

You don't need a soundcard to use SSL, the sound comes out of your mixer. If you want the sound to come out of your soundcard you will have to do what Zach says above.

nobspangle is right. I'm assuming you want your sound to come out of your computer speakers?
If so than you need to do what I explained above.
