Question about IOn Discover DJ software (Cross LE)

[daniel clark]

Click on properties and see if its a multi channel sc as in my screen shot ,, if its is proceed to look at the web for asio 4all ,, read/install instructions ./manual,, set up to use this multi channel sc installed in your computer ,,
if the sc doesn't have the output as in my screen shot then you will either need to get a simple usb sc and use asio4all to pair/add them to use as a multi chanel sc ,, (not the best option) , or buy a asio compliant multi channel sc ,,
at this fork in the road its best to get some advice ,,

gotta go to work now ,, post any info nessary and

There is only one row which says

LR Analog Jack

so I suppose I need to buy a multichannel sc.

Guys,

I have done some reaserch and I noticed these two sound cards have good reviews.Any of them could fix my problem just fine, but I would appreaciate you could confirm this to me.

Are they ASIO compliant? Any preference between the two sc?

[daniel clark]

will try to post links of the two sc ,,

just curious as to how far are you planning to expand your system and what is your intended outcome as for mixing/dee jaying ,, best to know before suggesting any thing due to overall outcome of what your are trying to accomplish ,

In addition to Daniel regarding what you want to achieve, as the link below shows a soundcard for €5,- ($5) that also might solve your problem (add a second output using ASIO4ALL).

Any output plug will work, however using stereo mini jack is not really standard. Using RCA(=cinch) or (balanced) XLR is.

You can switch from any type to an other by using different plugs, but the less the better. 1 simple thing you can't do with stereo jack is swap L/R.

Cheap soundcard (in Dutch, but likely similar are around)

will also reccomend a less expensive card till you get your bearings and figure out the extent of your endeverous ,, used one myself ,, set up with asio4all ,, can get you started playing , there will be issues with using different sc and the speed differences between the two ,, but still workable

Both handle ASIO. I have been thinking of getting an NI Audio 2 as a compact backup soundcard.

I am just planing to DJ for fun at home, with no intentions to become professional. I just want to create my own sessions to use later when I am driving or doing exercise at the gym.

For this purpose buy a cheap one.

Your internal SC can be the Master (output 1) in stereo.
The usb sc will be for the headphone. Usually for this sc quality is not to important as few headphones can handle more than what a sc can offer. Maybe you need a plug from 1/8 to 1/4 jack, depending on headphone connector.

If in future you run into things that require more investments, you'll always have a backup soundcard.

Using an MP3 player (/smartphone) can in Cross be done by switching on the fly between deck and Line in when connected to the the headphone out of the MP3 player. (i noticed this being advertised with at least one of the two).
