Im stumped ):

So I got my Mixtrack, and my DJ IO, but trying to figure out how to wire it up with rca cables is confusing me. Do I need to buy new speakers? If I want my speakers to play the music, and my headphones to cue up another song, what do I need to do? I have looked at multiple forum posts but can’t find my answer. The speakers I have only have a white RCA cable going from my left speaker to main speaker, and then the little pointy in the picture. When I plug the green thing into my DJ IO it doesn’t sound right and if I choose the DJ IO as ASIO in virtual dj my headphones go to #%$#.

Thanks

first off seems like you would need something like this …

or if you want to use the factory cables,

with this

to plug your speakers to your dj/io
plug your headphones into the other channel

in the dj program go select the dj/io in the settings, then select channel 1 (or whatever you plugged your speakers to) for master.
select channel 2 (or whatever your cans are connected to) and set to cue.

If I wanted to go with a new setup would something like this work? And if so what cables would I need to buy, and i’ll buy them all when I purchase this

if that 5.1 set comes with the three headphone jacks similar to logitechs, you may need only need this.

as i use that to connect my rca cables to the speakers

if it comes with a single headphone jack, then you can use any of the 2 options i stated in the earlier post. option 1, plug your speakers directly into an 1/4" converter and plug that into the dj/io. or option 2, where you get rca cable to headphone adapter along with the female to female converter, so you can use the rca cables that the dj/io came with.

Okay cool, one other thing, my DJ IO suddenly started flashing instead of being solid red, any ideas on why? my headphones arent working in it anymore

maybe reinstall/update drivers? or that it is not in use?

i personally havent used the dj/io, just going off info from using my audio2dj

:sunglasses:

It’s not even being detected now, well this sucks
