djay software + Micro II hardware
Posted: Fri Mar 27, 2015 1:55 am
I'm a relatively new DJ (I started in January), and I've been using the djay software on my Mac along with the Turtle Beach Micro II sound card for pre-cueing, per the advice of my trainer. The problem is that it works when it wants to. I'm not sure if it's an issue with the software or the hardware, which is why I'm asking y'all.
Here's what I'm trying to do. I would like to plug the sound card into my USB port, then plug the speakers into the sound card. Then I'd like to plug my headphones directly into my computer's headphone jack and pre-cue directly through the computer, while playing my music for the dancers through the sound card.
So what do I need to do hardware- and software-wise in order to get my pre-cued track to play through my headphones and my regular output to play through the sound card?
