In order to have both a main output and a preview channel, your soundcard needs to be configured to use at least 4 channel (2 stereo).
Not knowing the options of your soundcard, I can't really say if there is anything that needs to be configured, but it certainly uses ASIO drivers. Knowing that, you can at least make settings in Virtual DJ as follow:
- Input : None
- Output(s): Headphone
- Soundcard: ASIO Driver
Next will appear 2 menus:
ASIO Driver: Select your soundcard (Alesis xxx)
Output Channels: As VDJ only seems to be able to enumerate the 4 first channels of a soundcard, you will need to decide which output to use for MAIN and headphone preview.

This is where you will need to take a look at your soundcard ASIO settings (more specifially the ASIO buffer size) and make changes until you find what is most appropriate for your computer comfiguration.
As for VDJ, in the PERFORMANCE tab, make sure SAFE MODE is not checked, as this has been noted to create issues with ASIO.
You may also need to make some changes to your computer to improve performances. This guide from the Hercules suport site describes a lot of things you can do :

True, we are in the MAC section...
Regarding skin, you can only add more if your have the Pro version.
