I could use Mixxx' master, but I'd have to use a *third* sound device,
because the two that the VMS2 provides are already used for decks A and B.

I am using the "hardware" master and headphone output right on the
controller for getting the audio signal to amplifier and headphone,
respectively.

Aren't there many controllers like this on the market?

I have just seen
http://mixxx.org/wiki/doku.php/aa_vms4_mixxx_user_guide, which says

- Set the Master output to None
- Set the Headphone output to None
- Set the Deck 1 output to the VMS4 device and Channel 1-2 (may show as
“USB Audio Device” on Windows)
- Set the Deck 2 output to the VMS4 device and Channel 3-4

So Master set to None seems to be the common setting for such kinds of
controllers. That wiki page says how to control samplers using the VMS4,
but it does not tell how to "hear" them.
