Stereo output to external mixer
Posted: 18 Feb 2017, 23:33
I am new to Cross DJ for Android and am using from a 10" touch screen tablet. I am however not new to being a professional DJ. 25 years and going strong. I am completely blown away by how diverse and functional Cross DJ is. This is not my primary source for playback. Basically using as a hot start backup.
I've read some of the tech tips and watched the popular youtube video for connecting to external mixer via a 3.5mm splitter or y adapter and selecting the mixer option. Very simple but I must be missing something. The video clearly shows simple connections to external mixer with deck 1 and 2 on separate mixer channels and clearly shows the mixer line levels having stereo input/output not mono.
When I try this all I get is mono output through the y connector. Mind you I'm using a stereo y adapter not a stereo splitter converting stereo to mono. I can achieve stereo output if I use the normal setting but that puts deck 1 and 2 combined on one external mixer channel which is ok for a back up I guess. It's always been my understanding that a Y adapter takes a 3.5mm stereo output and thus gives you two separate stereo outs for connectivity to external mixers.

Am I missing something or have this backwards?
Here is the video in question. This is what I want accomplish but in stereo not mono.
