Cupe Posted January 11, 2012 Author Share Posted January 11, 2012 ok i think i worked out where those plugs go in the mixerjust a sec trying some shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggssell Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 cupe what mixer? also watch out as i think they changed cables up with the release of the new audio 6 and audio 10 and tsp 2.anyways, the other end of the cables should be two going into the phono of the mixer, and two going into the CD/ Line of the mixer. And then make sure your mixer is switched to CD/ line (this is prob the number one mistake made).also make sure whatever you wire up you also select in the preferences in the software Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggssell Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 while we are at it for tips.dont update to the latest drivers or software version, its buggy as fug.using the audio 8 control panel settings, set it to phono as opposed to timecode (apparently this works better?).adjust latency to the best of your system, there is no right and wrong and unless you can cut as fast as q-bert you are not going to notice anything less than 10ms.

SolDios Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 It sounds like it's on thru mode if your hearing that sound. Are the songs loaded into the decks?It needs go like this into your mixerTurntable -> Audio 8 inputAudio 8 output -> mixer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggssell Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 if all you hear is "eeeeee", that usually happens when your mixer is set to phono.make sure you change it to line.i know this usually doesnt comprehend as you are using turntables.but its because the phono signal is going to sound card, but then the output from the sound card back to the mixer is line.and for those wondering why are there cables going into phono then, this is so you can pass thru the sound card when you are not using traktor.(cupe you prob know this but just made it real simple and detailed in case another beginner finds this fred) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eggssell Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 damn i cant find the fred where i helped chev setup his tsp ages ago.anyways im assuming you using the multi cores. now just fo checkingWIRESthe bent L & R RCAs go into the turnies.the other end of the multi-core should say sound card input; and sound card output. these go into the audio 8, making sure you get the inny verus outy right.then the final end of the multicore should be labelled phono mixer; and line mixer. these go into the mixer in the relevant spots.again make sure mixer is on phono; ALSO if there are switches to assign the line input make sure you have chosen the right one (i.e. like mine has a switch for CD when using back plu and AUX when using front plug)SOFTWAREmake sure set to external mixerthen in preferences makes sure yu specify what inputs the decks are plugged into.and also specify the outputs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggssell Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 the music comes out the pc speakers nowbut i have no way of making the music come from the turntables, or be controlled by themit's just eeeeeeyou must not be setup be set up as external, because if you were the music would not come out of your PC.
