sound cards??

[hbeyer]

I'm not sure if i'm being stupid, but after alot of fiddling around i have finally bought a second usb sound card for headphone cueing, installed a separate driver so it is recognised as a second soundcard by my computer. and now when i go into preferences for Cross DJ it will let me select from a list of soundcards, and it has the option of dual play so i can have the master out of one soundcard and the cue out of the second, but it won't let me select more then one soundcard to use!! even though it clearly recognises i have more then one. the drop down menu for which sound card to use is an either/or option and not both. this seems ridiculous as it means it is physcially impossible to play the master from one output and cue through my headphones in another. making the entire exercise pointless as that is how your supposed to DJ!!! im hoping there is a simple solution as from where im sitting the software looks massively flawed. please help! i just have a laptop with windows 7 and a separate soundsystem running out of the main headphone jack, the idea is to be able to use this set-up in the park for a bit of fun mixing this summer, and so far i have everything i need, except to have the headphone cue come out of a second output channel like it should

two points of intrest for your concerns ,,nah three ,,
info as to set up ie os sound cards wanting to use ,,etc aninfo nessary to see what you have going on ,,
second regerster your software licence key on the fourm ,, user control panel/profile/serial # ,,
third if useing a win os the google asio4all and read the instruction ,, thinking Cross has asio4all , delervied when installed ,, in audio control panel use the drop dowmn menue ,, select asio4all and set up to run your usb sc ,,
if using mac the another senerio to accomplish the same thing ,,aggreating sc cards to gether to use,,
hope this helps ,
dont forget to regerster to get full benifits of the fourm ,,

in the drop down menu on the control panel i have selected the asio4all driver to run through my usb soundcard, no problem. but the Cross software itself will only let me use my primary soundcard(the computers main 3.5mm jack) OR the asio4all soundcard(usb) but not both, and as you can see i need the primary soundcard for my main output and the usb secondary one for separate cueing and the software even has duel stereo showing that i can use two separate soundcards, but the way to select which one is being used by the software is a dropdown menu of which i can only select one at a time. i need both active at once to use dual stereo. basically the software is contradicting itself.

Secondly i will register now

glad /thank you for regerstering
asio 4all ,,reading the instruction wil inform you quicker than words on the fourm ,,, used a usb sc myself early on ,, ,,open the advance user tab in asio 4all control panel ,, you will have to highlight/select the sc and out puts you want to get them running , any on set up will be answered ,, but you have to be familiar with its set up to converse on the fourm your problems with the set up
