How do I route my audio...from CDJ 1000???

Post by DJThis » Mon Feb 27, 2006 7:27 am

Guys...

Please help. I would like to route audio from my Pioneer CDJ 1000 into Ableton Live for two reasons. First, I would like to use the efx on Ableton for the live audio stream from CDJ , and secondly to play some drum loops or synth with the live stream from CDJ...

Provided that I am using a low latency sound card with 1 input and 1 output


Is this possible??? Please help..

Thanks
:D

route the RCA's of the CDJ1000 into the Inputs of your soundcard and then off you go. The fx addition will be easy, just assign a channel to the CDJ1000 music going into Ableton but the syncing will not be made automatically.

Thanks for your input...

I am looking for a midi keyboard to act as a sound card. Would you guys suggest any good one with low lantency? Or any external sound card?

Thanks

Had this discussion a while back and there should be a way of connecting the CDJ using Midi (I'm certain we talked about it having Midi, same as the EFX500) therefore connecting the tempo's of both together. Search the forum, there's a post somewhere on it.

No the cdjs don't have midi. the efx 500 and 1000s do, tho. I just looked it up to make sure and realized that pioneer has revamped the 800s and 1000s to mk2 amd mk3, respectively. They play mp3s now. Glad i waited to buy a second deck.
