NI Traktor DJ Cable

They are making stereo-to-mono splitters. What did you mean?

Has anyone used one of these with the iOS apps? If this, in fact, properly duplicates the stereo signal then why aren't companies like Griffin and NI making these stupid dual-mono splitters?

that is taking the stereo out and making it into 2 stereo lines. It can't be used with iOS devices because they only send 1 stereo out. So basically using that cable would give you a master and headphone on each output. That cable can be used if 2 people want to use headphone at same time.

Does everyone understand the difference between a stereo splitter and a dual mono splitter? That what we're all talking about here:

Stereo splitter - starts of as ONE L+R, and both L+R's get split, then combined TOGETHER again.

------------> L+R
---L+R
------------> L+R

This effectively gives you TWO IDENTICAL (stereo) outputs.

Dual Mono splitter - starts of as ONE L+R, and both L+R's get split, then combined SEPARATELY again:

------------> L+L
---L+R
------------> R+R

This effectively gives you TWO DIFFERENT (Dual Mono) outputs.

There is also a Mono Splitter (not much use to anyone):

Dual Mono splitter - starts of as ONE L+R, and both L+R's get split:

------------> L
---L+R
------------> R

Not great, bcause, you'll only get audio in one speaker, and one side of your headphone. Of course, this is usable, and buying one of these and some additional mono > dual mono cables will do exactly the same job as the Dual Mono splitter. But, you'll have additional connections in your signal path, and some people don't like that! (It doesn't bother me - if I can save a few quid with some "creative cabling" then I will!)

Ahh, derp.
