HELP! Setting up MixVibes and external soundcard for cue MAC

Postby Neilgee on 31 Aug 2011, 20:25

Hello,

Sorry it's my first time posting here as I am desperate-- I had no problems running my external soundcard (USB Soundblaster PLAY) on my PC, but the MAC is giving trouble. FIrst of all, Asio is for PC and I cannot find the MAC equivalent...

I am using mixvibes and ION discover DJ...I appreceiate the help since I need to practice for an upcoming party.

Thanks in advance!

Hey,

I checked the page from soundblaster sound cards and I can't find any product there which is MAC compactible. They all developed for Windows platforms.
I also checked a forum for mac users (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=88352) and there they talk about this problem. You can only load the default drivers but these are not helpful because you can't control anything from the channels (like volume and so on).

So you need an alternative soundcard or you have to install Windows via Bootcamp at your mac.
Sorry that I have no better answer for your question. maybe someone knows a solution but otherwise these are the only options you have.

regards
Christian

Thanks for the speedy reply Christian! I read the page you suggested earlier, Thanks. I don't have an issue with the SB drivers though--t worked fine as "plug n play" with my Mac. The real issue is the sound drivers for me to be able to set the cue audio right--

and thats where Aggregate audio comes in.


Thank you Blackbrook! Worked like a charm!

Playig music now! high five me brothas!
