Need Tips on External Mixing
Need Tips on External Mixing Posted on: 05.09.2013 by Abby Beeny After a while of trying to figure out how I want to upgrade my set up I have come to realize I want to go with external mixing. I have recently read Ean Golden's article on it. I'm still unsure how it actually works. I'm believeing about getting a Traktor Audio 6 but I'm not sure how I would route my Decks through it and how Decks C&D as remix decks would work. I'm just curious of other peoples set ups and how they externally mix.Help is much appreciated! | |

Luciano Hyppolite 11.09.2013 | I have recently bought a audio 8 for much less than the price of the A6 because the timecode did not work well. it was a no brainer for me since I dont use timecodes. Hell of an audio interface, great sound quality, great volume. go for it! |
Latoria Kavulich 10.09.2013 | go for it. 4 is better than 3 |
Abby Beeny 09.09.2013 | I found a Native Instruments Audio 8 for a decent price. Would this be a good sound card to start off with? I believe the audio 8 has been discontinued. It would be great if somebody has some more information on this sound card! |
Hayden Raugh 05.09.2013 | Even the djm 700 second hand is qaulity |
Hellen Mindrup 05.09.2013 | I was just going to say look at some second hand DJM models like 600's, maybe even a nice 500. |
Abby Beeny 05.09.2013 | I did find on kijiji a Pioneer DJM 600 for $300 CDN thou believeing about that now. |
Abby Beeny 05.09.2013 | It might be able to stretch a bit I'm selling some stuff I don't use anymore to hopefully be able to pay for the upgrades I was hoping possible to get something decent second hand to start off. |
Brunilda Kora 06.09.2013 | Avoid the Behringer DJX, mate. ...but if your budget will stretch, I would HIGHLY recommend the Behringer DDM4000. HIGHLY recommend it. |
Abby Beeny 05.09.2013 | This has been a huge help guys thanks! I'm currently debating on what kind of mixer to buy. I'm believeing possibly picking up a used Behringer DJX 900. I was looking at the Gemini PS-828EFX as well. I don't want to exactly break the bank right now but I'm looking for a quality 4 channel mixer. |
Brunilda Kora 05.09.2013 | Good looking out. Jest and the OP should be happy with the turn out in this thread! |
Doreen Schurle 05.09.2013 | To be fair, we're both right. I did a quick check in Traktor before I replied but forgot to switch it to External mixing; internal mixing prevents you from duplicating outputs, external mixing doesn't. |

Latoria Kavulich 05.09.2013 | I use an audio 6, 2 x1's and 4 channel mixer. You route decks A & B into 2 channels on the mixer, and for the remix decks you combine them into one output and use another channel on the mixer. To set up for recording, run the REC OUT or BOOTH from the mixer into an input on the A6, set the appropriate recording settings and you are Ean Golden. |
