Ok i just got the numark mixtrack, love it for the price… but… i bought a turtle beach amigo ii sound card well got it free, anyways when i wanna plug in the speakers i plug it into my macbook pro headphone jack, but i put my amigo ii to my usb plug in my headphones i can hear nothing.. even when i switch it makes me use one either speakers or headphones. Im trying to dj so when i hit cue for me to hear the other song it wont play through the headphones but u will hear it on the speakers which makese me look pretty dumb. I dunno if the zalman 5.1 external sound card would work. I have $20 to spend on a soundcard to work… any sugestions?
you need a soundcard that lets you plug the speakers and headphones into it. (cant have the headphones plugged to the SC and speakers to the laptop)
however, i know theres a crappy ‘3d’ sound card thats supposed to work like an extra headphone jack, but through usb. it runs for about $5. ill see if i can find it. im not sure if it will solve your problem though…(ive heard of someone using VDJ with it just fine)
ill post the link if i find it
EDIT: i think the reason it worked with vdj is because vdj supports multiple sound cards. traktor does not
i have the second one, but ive lost it, so i cant give you any info a head of time. only $3 though, and i think the 1st one is the same, but discounted.
well i use my speakers through an auxilary cable.. i can use the ones with the real speaker wires but auxilary port is easier… im trying to make it to the point at which i can cue and mix through my headphones so no one will hear it until i crossfade it in.. because the amigo ii is the headphone and mic thing as well. but i need my speakers to be playing while i try to mix a song in with my headphonese at a certain cue point any idea how i would make that work? im using traktor le
