i've been doing some research about the controller "dascratch" by stanton...i've seen that some people connect a mixer+ 2 dascratch's.... but could i take the music directly from the computer?and control the change from one song to another with a mixer? lol :o for example 1 toshiba satellite+ 2 dascratch+ 1 dmx09 by numark(or any other!!) wich one could i use? and how?
thanks!!
Dave!!
Id you have a soundcard and 2 dascratch units and a analogue mixer you could have 2 sets of stereo RCA cables run from your soundcard to the back of the mixer.
It would be kinda like plugging two cdj's into a mixer - except instead of the RCA's comming out of the controller they are comming out of your soundcard instead.
You would just need a soundcard with 2x stereo RCA outputs.
so i need a sound card to conect the mixer to the computer and the usb cables from the dascratch's goes to the computer or to the sound card? i have to do something so that the mixer recognize the controllers?????
the usb cables from the dascratch go to the computer.Quote:

If you want to mix 4 channels you will need a soundcard with 4x stereo outs - this is possible using the dascratch units as they can easily control 4 decks.
awesomeee!!!! lol thank you very much!! sorry for the silly questions!! haha i just started with the dijing!! i just bought a vci-100 and i'm thinking of buying this 3 things!! wich mixer should i use? stanton or numark? which one is better?or what other shoul i buy?
If your just starting then master one device at a time i would say - buy slowly over time as your buying decisions will evolve as you learn more and you work out where you want to go.
So if you dont have a multi channel soundcard already pick one of them up and stick with just the VCI for a while.
If you are really dieing for more and want 4 decks i would sooner buy two dascrastch units to go with your vci than i would buy a external mixer.
i'll do that.thank you very much!
Get a mouse, not a mixer.:cool:

There's that movie again. :p
Some prefer regular mixers to MIDI, might sound strange to you. But it's perfectly normal for the other. ;)
actually i prefer Midi that's why i wanted the dascratch's... i've always mixed with midi...and i don't like to use the mouse......:cool:
