TRAKTOR PRO 3 can be used with any MIDI controller. If you want to integrate a controller, you have three options.
I have just gotten a new macbook (mid 2015) with macOS Mojave installed. I upgraded Traktor to Traktor Pro 3 and now traktor wont recognise my Audio 8. I have of course installed Audio 8 drivers from native-instrumenst.com but I cant see the Audio 8. Are there compatibility issues with Mojave+Traktor Pro 3+Audio 8?
PLUG AND PLAY WITH TRAKTOR CONTROLLERS FROM NATIVE INSTRUMENTS
TRAKTOR controllers are designed and engineered in-house just a few steps away from TRAKTOR PRO 3. Native Instruments is the industry’s leading manufacturer for integrated hardware and software sound tools.
Both the software and hardware are designed in tandem with each other, for seamless plug-and-play integration.
Whether you’re a play-anywhere performer, a modular hybrid experimentalist, integrate timecode vinyl, or just need an all-in-one solution, there’s TRAKTOR gear that has you covered.

TRAKTOR-READY CONTROLLERS
We build compatibility for many “TRAKTOR-ready” third-party controllers. This means you can plug in, select your controller in TRAKTOR, and get into the mix right away. ALL TRAKTOR READY CONTROLLERS
MANUAL MIDI INTEGRATION
If you’re using a controller that isn’t “TRAKTOR ready', you can often find pre-configured MIDI mappings (.tsi files) on the manufacturer's website, or by searching the web. If not, you can create your own MIDI map for any controller by using the controller manager in TRAKTOR’s preferences via the MIDI learn mode. MIDI maps can be saved for future use.
