Does anybody know how to set up this? I'm trying to use my headphones to prelisten a song. I don't want to use a sound card, but if i need to can anybody tell me the best and compact soundcard i can use. I'm trying to put together a compact and mobile set up.

Use a graphics card then, or printer :D
Seriously, you mean "Prelistening songs with 1 sound card"? You'll have to use a Y split cable, which makes two mono outputs from one stereo. Thus you can connect one mono output to speakers/amplifyer and the secend one to your headphones. In VDJ, select the second (Stereo splitter) option under Sound Cards settings.

graphic card.. looool =)
yes i was using Y split cable... but if you want to mix songs for real, buy another sound card. with only one you won't be able to use some effects and songs won't be playing with original sound.

you don't need an expensive sound card. just buy one (internal or external) and plug into your computer. all settings are in VDJ where you see menu "sound cards". there you have to set 4th picture from the top. and then select to which one are connected headphones and to which one your speakers.

We cannot help, if you don't actually give us some info on what you 'tried'...
Hardware obviously isn't the issue here, because it works with any sound card connected and working on your computer.
1) Is your sondcard connected and working?
2) Are your cables plugged correctly?
3) Did you select the right option in Sound Setup menu?
4) Are you using VDJ with external mixer?
It's very simple:
1st, you need 2 outputs:
1 soundcard with 1 stereo output (so you split it into two mono...) or,
2 soundcards with two stereo outputs or,
1 soundcard with 2 (or more) stereo outputs.
The cable setup goes like this:
1 cable goes to your speakers, 1 to your headphones or,
if you answerd 'yes' under 4): 1 cable to 1 mixer input, other cable to the second input in mixer, while master output (from mixer) goes to the speakers.
The setup in VDJ options depends on how many cards you use and how they are setup. I believe that pictures cannot possibly ilustrate it better than they do. :)
Still having problems?
