Hello:
I jus purchased the full version of the virtual dj.
I have been a professional DJ for many years.
YET for the life of me I cannot get a headphone cue to work.
Here is what I have.
Gateway Laptop with Conextant AMC Audio Soundcard.
I have ONE mini line in
I have ONE mini line out
2 USB ports.
I have a USB headset as well as regular headphones.
I have tried and tried to configure how to hear a cue in the headphones and CANNOT.
If it is a splitter I need, Please explain how this works as it seems a splitter would STILL send the CUE sound to the speakers as well as the Headphones....
I love this program = Bought it
Please walk me through this part.
Thanks!
Theresa

The Splitter works like this
line out goes to stereo splitter which splits the signal into 2 mono signals, one to headphones and one to speakers, you will have to use external speakers not onboard laptop speakers if you use a laptop
Go into soundacard settings and choose the second option with the stereo splitter graphic.
You will only get Mono sound to speakers and headphones but you will be able to cue
To cue in stereo you will need 2 soundcards. or a 4.1 soundcard,
If you have an external mixer you can choose 5th souncard selection, and use your mixer to ue like you normally would.
hope this helps, any more questions feel free to ask.

OK so there is NO way to have a stereo feed going out this way with a headphone cue correct??
Would one of the USB sound cards work?
By the way I registered right before buying and I can't seem to find where to update my profile to show that I am a real user now......
Thanks.

Not with your current setup no. A usb soundcard (maya 44) would work great and allow you to have stereo sound an cue.

You have been so kind. Does it have to be 4.1 or would a 5.1 or even a 7.1 serve the same purpose?
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much!

Well actually any usb soundcard will work. there are settings inside virtual dj to send the cueing channel (in stereo) to headphones and master channel out (stereo) to any second soundcard, so you would be using your soundcard you have now and a usb soundcard
and its no problem helping you thats why i'm here on the forum

It was suggested I use the MAYA44 USB - Analog 4 in 4 out USB Audio Interface To solve the stereo out and stereo headphone cue situation.
HOWEVER I have searched HIGH And LOW and his piece of hard ware is not in stock ANYWHERE.
Could users please suggest other USB audo interfaces that would be fully compatible? And would MORE than 4 in 4 out do the job as well.
I am running a laptop so I need to to be USB.
Thanks you all have been so great!

Yes the maya 44 is no longer made. you can find it at some places. best bet is probably http://www.musiciansfriend.com. i suggest getting the hercules dj console mk2. it is a usb midi controller and soundcard combined. you can find it http://www.americanmusical.com. This is what i will be purchasing

Thank for registering
Before buying a maya 44 (sorry dj gauge, it's not the only way ;-) ), does your usb headset recognize in VDJ? Do you see it listed among the sound card?

My setup does NOT recognize my headphones (USB) as a sound card - it only overides the line outs and cuts off the speakers so is of no use in the mixing via headsets that I want to do.

Dj Gauge:
But the Hercules is much more expensive AND comes bundled with the Virtual Dj program that I already bought? Is there a way to buy this hardware without the added cost of the Virtual Dj program That I have already bought? Seems as if if I have to use this hardware I will have paid twice for virutal dj?
What is the solution?
Thanks!
Theresa
PS and yes everwhere on the net including Musicians friend does not have the Maya in stock.

Sorry Dj_Gauge, I thought. But the idea is interesting for the constructors ;-)
(An USB headset recognized like a soundcard with only one output: terrific !!)
Imagine on a laptop, it woud be useless to buy an external soundcard

Yeah that would be a great idea, I wonder how it send sound thru it with other programs if it doesnt recognize it as a soundcard? and how would it take precedence over you onboard soundcard? interesting issue

Yes very good question. For me it worked like a sound card so...
