2x jack out on laptop?

[mikker39]

Hey everyone!

So the question is,

I would like to start DJ'ing a little bit, but for that i need 2x sound out. one to my headphones and the other to the speakers. I actualy have 2x headphones out on my laptop. Is it somehow to possible to route these jacks so as i mentioned? I have looked into ableton settings, but it only gives me 1/2 out. so its only mono, but i would like to achive stereo.

or are there somekind of special drivers for the soundcard?


all the best.!!

you need an external sound card. in my experience m audio fast track pro is perfect at it's price. I also have an old m audio card that was on board but i can't recall the model name.

Would using splitters work?

No, you need two stero channels. This can only be achieved with a multichannel sound card. A splitter only doubles the output for one stero channel.

ok, thank you for the info, i was actualy thinking about it, but wasnt 100% sure. but now i am.

actualy so far iv been using Roland UA-25 ex, and its done a pretty good job so im thinking about to stay with the company and just to change the soundcard. i was looking at the Roland Quad-Capture.

or maybe someone could suggest me something different with the same price tag right now i would get a new one for around 230 euros.

Take a look at the Native Instruments Audio 2 DJ. It has 2x 1/4" stereo outputs.
