About To Buy A Vci-100
ok so im about to buy a vci 100 this friday and i cant wait
and i know i need a sound card
I already have a Lexicon Omega
wich is this one here
and im running a dell inspirion 1525 lap top with windows vista 2.13 ghz and 1 gig ram
now my question was well my lexicon omega work with both the vci 100 and the laptop
or do you guys think i should buy a new sound card ?
please let me know thanks
Your soundcard i fine, stick with it until decent USB3 cards come out and you have a lappy that has USB3 on it - should be noted that USB3 is still about a year off.
ok thanks for your help !!
How do you figure that the soundcard is ok? I see only one stereo output and the headphone out. Do you know for a fact that the headphone output is not just a mirror of the main output (wich is often the case)?
wait so do I need a new sound card ?
I should mention that most of by gigs are house parties and weddings
Do you want to cue? Do you want to have good sound quality? Then yes you do
yea cueing is a must
I want good sound quality too but right now I’m on a budget
and that budget would be…?
I’d say about 130 max
and i would have to be able to go buy it at a store cus i need it asap
Well, I can’t help with the buying in the store. The Numark I/O is probably a good place to start, and I’ve seen them around in Guitar Centers and Sam Ash locations.
I’m sure someone else here can speak to it.
The Numark I/o Well I Be Able To Cue With It ?
yes.
So I Wouldnt Be Able To Cue With My Current Sound Card ?
WOULD THIS HAPPEN TO WORK ?
I don’t think that would work, DJFar. The headphone port is only for monitoring, which should mean that it only will play whatever is coming out of the master channel. Therefore you can’t cue.
Just spend the extra $20 at a guitar center on the Numark I/O. The shittier the equipment the shittier everything works.
ok i got cha…ya im gonna go pick up the numark i/0 today thanks guys for your help
