How get best sound quality/levels plugging a midi controller into spare mixer channel Hey folks!! I am playing a garden party at the weekend with a big 1k sound rig. The gear onsite is CDJ-1000 mk IIs and an old DJM-600 mixer. I am Traktor all the way these days, and would want 900/2000s for HID to make it all easy, but as I no longer have my any timecode gear, so shall be using a midi controller with a single RCA out going into a spare channel on the DJM. My concern is about getting a decent sound with comparable volume to the direct inputs of the the CDJs from the controllers internal mixer.... I have had issues in the past doing this, I find when Traktor outputs through an external controller and then into a mixer it adds a FUCK load of bass and some treble. Volume is okish as the mixer has level meters, but it is quality (bass/mid/treble) that is my main concern and I was wondering if anyone has experience, even a set pattern of +/-'s for the low/mid/high on a pioneer mixer give to a 'baseline/neutral' output through the main mixers channel of the Traktor output when the controllers EQs are all set to '0'....... I know the answer will really just be to sound check the fuck out of it in advance, but I thought I would ask for any advice or tips anyway in case someone has had the same issues and discovered a 'sweet spot' for the external mixer EQs! | |
