Two Questions for PCDJ users, or other Laptop guys
Hello,
I have a predicament that hopefully a technically savvy DJ will be able to solve for me. Problem 1: I am using PCDJ as my setup on a laptop, with an Edirol UA-1A external sound device (1 dual RCA input, and 1 dual RCA output). I am using option 6 in PCDJ (I think) for hardware configuration, the one that allows player A to come out sound card 1 (Edirol), and player B to come out sound card 2 (on board), so that I plug each into a different line in on my mixer allowing me to use my crossfader and volume controls on two channels. The problem is, the mixer only has one microphone input, and needing two I want to try and use the mic input from my onboard soundcard. So far I can get the microphone to work, but sending the audio directly to the computer. But I can't get the audio coming in that microphone to come out to my mixer. Any suggestions? Problem 2: I often use Soundforge to record parts of my gigs, including toasts, speeches, and specific songs. Using the Edirol UA-1A's inputs I am splitting the output from my Amp out on the mixer to go to the amp, and the inputs on the UA-1A. I can't seem to get SoundForge to recognize the audio coming in whilst I am using PCDJ, or otherwise. This also brings me back to the problem of not being able to use my Mic input on my laptop to go out to the mixer. I am in the market for a two mic input, 2-3 channel mixer if anyone knows a good one. See my post regarding this issue. Thank you so much for any and all replies. Tim A. |

Re: Two Questions for PCDJ users, or other Laptop guys
as far as i know, you can only get output from the Edirol if the mic is
plugged into that. the mixers are NOT chained in windows and thus if the mic is plugged into the built in soundcard, that's the only place it'll come out of. if i read that post wrong lemme know.
