Hello,
You can use Pioneer CDJ-1000 connected to LINE IN in your RMX (check your RMX switch selector is in LINE IN). You may need CD timecodes to each CDJ-1000 to work with VirtualDJ using timecode control.

(last one works for PC configuration too)

Hello smoothy,
I suppose you want to play audio CDs on CDJ100S but not time code CDs since, as you have no scratch mode on CDJ100s, your scratch control on CDJ100S jog dial will not be good.
You can play audio CDs on CDJ100S players and connect the player outputs on Rmx audio inputs (set in line mode), but, in case it saturates, you may have to reduce CDJ100S output volume, with inline volume control as

CDJ100S output level is set at +8dBu, while DJ Console Rmx inputs are made for +4dBu inputs, so it may saturate.
I am not sure CDJ100S players are the best solution for mixing your audio CDs:
- you can control audio CDs in VirtualDJ,
- so I suppose you will get a better control on your audio CDs in playing the audio CDs on your computer CD/DVD player, mix the track in VirtualDJ, and control them on DJ Console Rmx jog wheels.
