    Question (FirstPost)Connecting laptop to mixer/CDJs

    How do I connect my Laptop to play music from Virtual DJ, to my mixer/CDJs, to my speakers.

    Equipment
    - Numark NDX 400 x2
    - Numark iM1 2-Channel Mixer

    I've figured it out already. I have a doublee ended AUX, and an adapter to put it in, then put in my adapter to my microphone jack, it works like that, but I can't scratch or slow it down or anything.

    How can I fix this??

    You need an audio interface.

    Everybody is going to have an opinion.
    Just do your thing to the best of your ability and have fun with it.

    Haus is right (as he usually is); you need a 4x4 sound interface (meaning 2 stereo inputs and 2 stereo outputs) AND you need the DVS engine in VDJ... which isn't free.

    Here's what you do: Pitch the laptop and VDJ. Put your mp3s on a pair of thumb drives and mix directly from those NDX-400s. Done.

    Haus isn't a fan of computers. He can barely type. He does drop dope beats, so we listen to him.
