Using more than two outputs on Indigo DJ soundcard to mixer

[D Robichaud]

Hi,

Is anybody using more than two outputs in LIVE to a hardware mixer? I've tried the following set up at home using Echo Indigo DJ soundcard and a mixer:

three channel mixer - chan 1 - output 5/6 (mono)
- chan 2 output 3/4 (mono)
- chan 3 output 1/2 (stereo)

I have a Y splitter for the output 3/4 to use virutal output 5/6.

Anybody tried else that before?

I'm actually debatting on using my hardware mixer or using my trigger finger and or BCF2000 controllers. Using a mixer feels more natural and maybe save some resources (CPU), but cuing tracks would require probably another output (that would give me 4 mono instead of two stereo) and I don't have a four channel mixer. On the other hand, midi controllers would give me the ability to record everything I do in LIVE, but It's difficult to configure the way that I want. I've been spending countless hours on trying to find a good dj template that fits my need. Maybe I should look into the DJM-800...

If you're happy with a mono signal, then hey - that might work.

That should allow you to use both your headphone output on your computer, as well as the Echo Indigo DJ's two outputs (for a total of three). It's not guaranteed to work, but it's worth a shot.
