external speakers (or an amplifier) and the cue/headphone signal of the mixer sent
to the connected headphone.
3.2 Audio Sources: Audio Files vs.
External Sources
Both setup scenarios described above use media files (wav, mp3. etc) as the audio
source. These files are loaded into the CROSS DJ players. Start the player to hear
the track.
As well as using media files you can additionally use an external audio source in
croSS. these external audio sources can come from any device that delivers an
audio signal: turntable, cD player, mp3 player such as an ipod™, an effect device
and so on. to be able to use external audio sources your audio interface needs to
be equipped with at least one input that you can connect the external source to.
u-mIX control pro for example provides two stereo inputs that can be used
to connect external devices and to integrate them into your setup. as croSS DJ
is built based on a two deck setup you can use a maximum of two external audio
sources at the same time. the external devices are internally routed to one of the
two croSS DJ players.
The following figure illustrates the signal flow in internal mixing mode when using
external audio sources.

to Player A
In this example a cDJ player is connected to the inputs 1/2 of the audio interface.
the input mode of player a (left part of the mixer panel) has been set to line In.
In this setting the audio coming from the cDJ player is routed into the croSS DJ
mixer and you can use the equalizer, the cue button and the fX from player a to
modify the incoming cD audio. once the audio from the external source is inside
the mixer the rest of the game is identical to using both players with media files:
