    Default So... I just went to my room to do a mix...

    And then... My headphones don't work.

    I use Traktor Pro 2 with Numark Mixtrack Pro I and the headphones are Sennheiser HD-25 II. I use a pretty shitty SteelSeries USB sound card which looks like this. I also have a sub woofer connected to 2 floor speakers with a little speaker on my desk for a centre speaker. RCA to mini jack comes from the sub woofer in to my sound card.

    I have searched through Google and through the DJTT forums and I haven't found a solution (yet). I have tried ASIO4ALL and sound doesn't even come out from my speakers let alone my headphones. I don't know what other options I have at this current point in time which is why I am asking you guys.

    Cheers Tech Toolers

    plug your speakers directly to the mixtrack pro. or get a "real" audio interface. not something "shitty." for testing purposes to know if your headphones or speakers still works, plug it to something other than your computer. like an mp3 player, stereo, etc.

    Yeah the Mixtrack pro has a headphone socket doesn't it? Unless you got the regular mixtrack, which has no audio interface.

    I'm sorry, what? Yes the cans do work if you mean headphones.

    Not yet, although previously when I used my sound card on my laptop instead of my desktop it worked fine.

    The sound card is for my speakers, not my headphones. I just thought I'd describe my set up. You can view my set up here. IMG_0654[1].jpg

    You mean via the headphone slot? I haven't thought of that thanks. I will get a better audio interface such as NI Audio 2. My headphones definitely work. I use them on my laptop every day.

    I cannot thank you enough! This worked for me! And then used ASIO4ALL. Many thanks dripstep!

    I am now one happy DJ who can spin again.

    The Mixtrack Pro has two stereo outputs for your headphones and speakers, as does the Audio 2. You shouldn't need to use ASIO4ALL, which as you already know is less reliable than using a dedicated multi-output sound card.
