software.

What cables do this?



I am not looking to record live instruments but would a USB sound card
be needed?

RCA output from your Z1 to 1/4 inch jack input on your speakers.

Really your speakers need a balanced input, but unbalanced should work ok.
If you get any hum or are using long cables, get a DI box.


oh .... and Nottingham represent! Beeston in the house!

Yeah I'm looking to eventually get rid of N.I controller.
I'm getting cdjs next week and need to find set up mixer that I can run.

Any suggestions on hooking up laptop and tablet for when I'm just listning to music. I don't mind switching out cables as I don't have a mixer. to work out.

I'm also in the market for buying further kit. Speakers, DJ Mixer, Sound Card etc budget 600-700.
