    Default How to use headphones with traktor?

    I'm trying to cue with my headphones, however whenever I press/hold cue the audio is still going through my speakers.


    My audio set up is:

    ASIO4ALL v2

    and output routing is:

    Internal

    Output Monitor:
    L - not connected
    R - not connected

    Output Master:
    L - 1: HD Audio output 1
    R - 2: HD Audio output 2

    Output Record:
    L - Not connected
    R - Not connected

    Input routing:
    Input Deck A:

    L(Mono) 1: Hd Audio Front mic input 1
    R 2: HD audio front mic input 2

    and the rest is not connected

    You need a soundcard to hear two tracks buddy. The NI Audio 2 is a great soundcard and reasonably priced.

    A soundcard connected to what? My controller?

    If so, doesn't the denon mc3000 come with a built in soundcard?

    You neen to set up traktor to use your MC3000 as a soundcard. Have you installed the Denon ASIO driver? if not, download it from the denon website, then in traktor change the ASIO4ALL to DENON ASIO, then set monitor output to 3/4, and main output to 1/2.

    There's always the old stereo splitter trick too.

    When I set it to the DENON ASIO, no sound is coming from my speakers nor my headphones when using the cue button. I've installed the ASIO driver.

    I'm using a one outlet speaker, the ones used for desktops etc, not amps or actual speakers. Could this be the problem?

    I'm not sure what you mean by "one outlet" but make sure the speaker is plugged into your controller, not the headphone (or speaker) output on your computer. When you plug in a soundcard or a controller with a soundcard, THAT soundcard becomes the default (or you need to set it as the default manually), and it disables your computers internal soundcard.

    Does this really work? I mean, I know the splitter would be able to connect the headphones and the sound output, but you're still restricted to one output, no?

    For the money, you might as well just break down and get the soundcard. It's a 30 dollar purchase.
