i just installed a new sound card, a cheap c-media 5.1 channel i got from ebay, because i was having issues with the on board audio on my computer. well it seems to work fine for 2 channel stuff like fl studio demo i am running, but all goes awry when i try to use virtual dj. vdj was working fine before but now its all screwed up. i cant seem to select an option that im sure was there before to have headphones + speakers, although 4 channel card it showing. asio is also showing and i use that, but the cueing, mixing and fading dont work. when i fade from one side to the next, i still hear it, and sometimes the sound is overdriven on one deck, and the cue headphones dont work at all. yes, i got the latest driver. any idea what to try? i want to use just this on my desktop since i get a nice 12ms latency with asio for all. changing to the regular driver in vdj does not help. hope i can fix this, i guess i can go back to my on board sound, but i was gettin lockups on my computer caused by the sound driver and i needed to replace it. thanks for the help.
im using a dj control steel and a demo of vdj 6
sometimes you just need to step away from the computer for a while to solve a problem. i found the sound cards setup menu and 2 channel was selected. all i had to do was select 4 channel and all was solved. although i cannot seem to get it to work with asio for all v2. i get lots of static that sounds like constant buffer underruns, which is not supposed to be an issue with this. it worked in 2 channel mode!
yes, thats the one. but ill be soon using it with my new ni audio 2 dj and my laptop once i get my daw desk completed.
hello,
make sure you have declared the sound card as 4-channel or 5.1-channel in windows.
in xp, you get it with windows "start button
- settings
- control panel
- sound, speech and audio devices
- sound and audio devices
- volume tab
- click on speakers advanced settings button, and set the sound for 4 speakers or 5.1 speakers.
and once you have declared your sound card in 4-channel or more, then you can run virtualdj, select the sound card as 4-channel and chose 1 stereo output for preview and 1 stereo output as master output.
yes, i have resolved this problem now, thanks for the help.
