B-CONTROL DEEJAY BCD2000

5.3 Expanded setup

Even though the B-DJ system can do without external drives and
media, you can expand this controller software setup by adding a
CD player (which you maybe already have) or two turntables. In
this case, you can integrate the analog signal into the software
mixer and process it with all real-time functions of the decks (such
as EQ, cut-off filter, effects, fader, crossfader, VU meters, etc).
Operating external devices is as intuitive as internal mixing.
Fig. 5.2: Expanding the standard setup
In this setup, the standard setup shown in fig. 5.1 is expanded by
adding two turntables and a microphone. The connection to the
computer and the other peripheral devices is the same as in
example 1.
Connect the outputs of the turntables to inputs A and B. To use
input B, set the PHONO/LINE switch to position “PHONO”.
Alternatively, you can connect a CD player to input B. In this
case, the PHONO/LINE switch must be set to “LINE”. Press the
input source button to activate the inputs. You can manage
up to four signal sources at the same time by switching the two
channels between the analog source and the software signal.
The MIC input with its XLR connector allows you to connect a
microphone. The MIC LEVEL control in the MIC INPUT section
determines the volume of the microphone signal. Use the ON AIR
switch to activate the microphone channel. The clip LED illuminates
as soon as the input signal’s level is too high and could possibly
cause audible distortion. If this happens, turn the MIC LEVEL
control to the left until the LED does not light up anymore.
ANALOG INPUT A overrides the microphone channel. When
this button is pressed, you cannot use the microphone.

The USB interface allows you to record and play back four audio
signals at the same time. The signal routing is determined by the
settings of the B-DJ software, the control panel and the button
positions. The signal routing also depends on the selected driver
(ASIO or WDM/MME).

5.4.1 Routing options with ASIO driver

If “B-DJ” is selected in the GLOBAL MODE of the control panel,
you can only select the input signals. The assignment of the
outputs is fixed. Output 1-2 always provides the MASTER OUT
signal, while the stereo headphone mix is assigned to output
3-4. The headphones mix is the same as the master signal, if
