playing music "thru" controller soundcard

[jngggggggg]

Hey guys, does anyone know if it is possible to play music (say directly from itunes) through the soundcard on a digital controller (such as the s4) onto the speakers connected to the controller without using traktor pro2 software?

i bought a pair of krk's and am wishing that i could also utilize them with my desktop (right beside my controller set up which uses my laptop)

basically i wanna be able to play music on my krk's from 2 sources (computer and laptop; where only one has traktor installed).. i cant just connect extra wires to the desktop cause the krks dont accept 3.5mm

thanks

yes, you can also get a phono to 3.5mm cable and hook them up to the krks

Yes you can

Depending on the OS Windows/Mac

on Windows right click on your speaker icon on the task tray right click and select playback devices...then click on master of the S4.


Mac i dont know but there should be similar options on a mac.

I set my mac to use my s4 as my main sound card. Just go into system preferences and click sound and it'll be in there. Simple.

On my S4, I use the RCA inputs switched to LINE and THRU modes.

And to have more inputs with level control, I use this small RCA hub :

The same can be used to compensate the S4's lack of booth-out volume control when connected to one of the outputs BTW.

UPDATE : There is definitely need for the DJTT team to to change the template of the forums so that links to single posts don't appear like if the colors where inverted...

If you turn off the S4, the Mac will auto-default back to the internal sound card.

Works seamlessly.
