@ heman again...
just want to point out one thing... You can also use CD players (DJ players) with timecode CD's, a lot in the same way as you would use turntable + timecode vinyl :)

Posted Tue 15 Nov 05 @ 3:22 pm

Maya is an ASIO-soundcard
Thats what I mean... ASIO have less latency, than regular soundcards (time it takes from when you move the timecode vinyl, til your PC gets the information)
Yes, it can be a bit expencive getting pro dj hardware... :)
You can always start easy.... use software only first.... Maybe add the Hercules controller.
Good for practice,and get you started..
And then get turntables and so, later.... save up for it :)

well what i'm doing is getting the hercules dj console mk2, and using it until i get TT, because the hdjcmk2 is an asio soundcard with 2 sets of stereo inputs and will work with Timecoded vinyl and real turntables

Posted Sat 19 Nov 05 @ 1:09 pm
how mcuh is the maya 44 soundcard in cash

1. Yes you can mix with this one soundcard (Hercules Console or Maya) - Both are 5.1 soundcards, so you have 2 x out, and prelisten possibility to headphone
2. For the 2 cards above , and all other 4.1/5.1 soundcards, you do not need a stereo splitter.
Stereo splitter is a solution for users having one simple stereocard. If so, you can split the one stereo out, to 2 x mono. One for master sound, and one for prelisten.
The price for a good 4.1/5.1 soundcard varies a lot...
Check out :
http://www.hercules.com
http://www.soundblaster.com
etc
Maya is not made anymore, but can still be found around at local shops and webshops.
Try your local computer store, or search http://www.google.com.
If you want to start easy, and not spend a lot of money I would suggest this :
- Buy Hercules console MKII + VDJ
It is a GREAT soundcard, and also an ok midi controller for VDJ
If you later can afford, and want to expand to use timecode vinyls, all you need is:
- 2 x turntable + 2 x timecodevinyl
The turntable/timecode can be connected to the Hercules MKII, in asio mode.
Hope that helps ;)

This is a stereo splitter .... it will split your stereo signal, into 2 x mono signal...
