i am using os windows xp service pack 3
my setup is:
input : none
output : headphone to pc
soundcard + usb sound cars : master fistcard/ headphone second card
so, anyone got idea how to solve this problem?
If you already have a multi-channel soundcard (4.1 or 5.1 for example) then that's all you need:
a) Check that your sound card’s speaker mode is set to 4-channel or 5.1-channel, using the sound card's own control panel (Recommended) or through Windows SOUND AND AUDIO PROPERTIES ( Volume tab > Speakers settings)
b) Connect your headphones to the Front connector and speakers to the Rear speakers connector.
c) In VDJ, configure as follow:
- Input : None
- Output(s): Headphone > Master : Rear / headphone: Front
-Soundcard: Your soundcard's name
Thanks DJ Phatso for your solve idea but I'm having a problem that my headphone cable was not long enough to reach the rear output soundcard. Cause I'm put it my pc on the floor.
Why I can't use both soundcard pc with usb while using dj console mp3 E2?
In theory, using multiple soundcard is possible, but sometimes the real world application can be a bit difficult, as some cards with different chip don't necesserally work well together, differences in sampling rate that cannot be changed, delays, etc.
If you want to try, I would suggest installing ASIO4all (www.asio4all.com), which amount other things can "create" a single soundcard out of multiple devices, and provide you with some flexibility of the ASIO driver (changing buffer size and such).
Once installed and configured , the audio settings in VDJ would look something like this:
- Input : None
- Output(s): Headphone > Master : Output 1-2 / headphone: Output 3-4
-Soundcard: ASIO > Asio4all
Keep in mind that for the reasons mentionned previously, this may or may not work.
