newbie. which cables do i need/ setup S4 + audio 2 dj
Hello
i bought the traktor S4 + audio 2DJ from NI
which cable do i need to connect the S4 to the audio 2 dj to use on output A for master and output B for headphones.
i don t really get how to set up this…
do i have to plug the heaphones to the audio 2 dj or to the S4 ?
main question is : how do i setup the S4 + headphones with an Audio 2 DJ from NI and my computer (no ampli, only computer speakers)
the issue i have is : if i connect the s4 only in usb to my computer, i didn t manage to make the headphone works (plugged to S4)
if i select my pc internal soundcard as audio device, i cannot make the headphone works. see here : ImageShack - s4-1.png
same design but with S4 as output master, no sound at all.
if i choose the audio 2 as audio device, the headphone are working but the master output doesn t work.

You need to select the s4 as the sound card, set mixing to ‘internal’ (in preferences) and plug the computer speakers into the S4. You may need to use a converter to go from 3.5mm (computer speakers) to RCA(S4).
Download the Asio4All driver. http://www.asio4all.com/ . Open up the Asio4ALL control panel. You can choose which outputs and inputs you want working with the Asio4all driver. Make sure headphone output on the S4 is active and the speaker output on your PC’s internal soundcard is active. Then open Traktor, choose Asio4All as your soundcard, and configure your output routing in Traktor.
Asio4All driver is not scratch certified, so if you want to run timecode records or cd’s you need to select the S4 driver again.
change the output routings in the preferences first of all so you can monitor off the s4. i would keep the audio 2 and grab an x1. there may be occasions where there isn’t room for the s4 or you cant be F’d taking it with you
Yeah you’re not setting it up correctly. You won’t need to run the two together. However, keep that Audio 2. It’s a great backup sound card. I use an S4 but bring the Audio 2 to every gig.
Well my offer still stands until the end of today, if you want to sell it since you dont need it let me know. I’ll be buying one myself tomorrow otherwise, thanks.
