i have connected a mp3 player to the input in 1-2...
if i go to the driver software and select advanced>> usb streaming 1-2 + line in 1-2
than i hear the music from my mp3 player...
but the source 1 en 2 buttons have no function....
i cant switch from computer music to mp3 player... 
the source buttons, just like all other buttons, have no hardware specific functions outside of dj softwares, where they are configured to switch the input sources.
the only way to get hear an external source, as youve noticed, is to switch the hardware mix options in the cpl.
thanks for the reply...
i was on a pc with the newest drivers and virtual dj 5.2
and the source button didnt worked..
now i am on a laptop with the cd drivers and virtual dj djc edition.
and the source button works here!!
------- conclusion----
virtual dj 5.2 pro or the newest hercules dj console drivers are the problem!
in order to use the external source in virtual dj , the console needs to be in asio, which is done automatically by the djc edition, but not by the full version. be sure the sound configuration is set as follow:
inputs : none
outputs: headphone
soundcard: dj console rmx
and be sure to check the box "appliyeq on external inputs"
btw, the latest version of vdj is 5.2.1
