4.4 Configuring other Soundcards
If you use any audio interface other than the u-mIX control pro this section will
provide all the information that is necessary to get your soundcard up and running
with croSS DJ.
In general you can use any soundcard with croSS DJ. However, using a soundcard
that has at least two stereo outputs gives the best results and a better experience.
If you wish to integrate external audio sources, like a turntable, cD player, mp3
player etc into your setup, then you will need an audio interface that has one stereo
input for each device you wish to connect.
1 Connect your equipment (audio interface, speakers/amplifier, headphones)
by performing one of the following actions:
•
If you use croSS DJ in internal mixer mode connect the speakers/your
amplifier and your headphones to the corresponding outputs of your au-
dio interface. Some DJ audio interfaces have a designated headphone
output, sometimes you can assign one of the available outputs as the
headphone output. please consult the manual of your audio interface
for more information.
•
If you use croSS DJ in external mixer mode connect each stereo output
of your audio interface to a stereo input of your mixer.
2 If you wish to integrate external audio sources, like a turntable, a cD player
or an mp3 player, into your setup, perform the following actions:
•
connect the components you wish to use to the inputs of your audio
interface.
•
If you are using a turntable that provides a phono level signal and if your
audio interface has a switch to toggle the input between phono and line,
make sure that the switch is set to phono.
