Traktor S4 on UStream (or LiveStream). HAS TO BE ANY EASIER WAY!! Posted on: 12.09.2011 by Aracely Mcalvey I'm fucking pulling my hair out, here...there's gotta be a reasonably easy way to make this happen. I've googled every known combination of "traktor s4" +"ustream" +"aggregate device" +"soundflower" +"whateverthehellelseicanbelieveof" to no avail. Is there not a reasonably easy way to get Ustream to read what's coming out of the S4 and into Ustream? I could run an RCA to 3/8" into the mac, but then I wouldn't be able to monitor on my speakers... I've tried setting up an aggregate device but I'm not sure what needs to go into it. FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!! Its the 21st century, the century of having your cake and eating it too....this can't be an exception to that! :eek:
Aracely Mcalvey 13.09.2011	Originally Posted by Paka Ono Keep in mind that those are TRS "tip ring sleeve" balanced outs and not 1/4" outs like you use for headphones. Connect those to your speakers, and the RCA outs to your computer. so go from the 1/4" outs on the S4 to the RCA in in on my speakers, and go from the RCA main outs on the S4 to the 1/8" jack on my macbook? So those two cables should do it, right?
Neville Blackinton 13.09.2011	Originally Posted by Kevening sOfTheRound shitfire, there are two 1/4" outs beside the RCA main outs on the S4, aren't there?! That should work, then, if I wanted to go directly into the macbook! Keep in mind that those are TRS "tip ring sleeve" balanced outs and not 1/4" outs like you use for headphones. Connect those to your speakers, and the RCA outs to your computer.

Aracely Mcalvey 12.09.2011	Originally Posted by photojojo Or you could get this and just keep your speakers on the RCA's and run the 1/4" to the line in on the computer.

That should work, then, if I wanted to go directly into the macbook!
Harley Zitka 12.09.2011	Originally Posted by Kevening sOfTheRound i have external speakers that I monitor on So connect one set of the outputs to your monitors, and then connect the other to the input on your Macbook. It's not difficult.

Aracely Mcalvey 20.09.2011	Got everything set up for this, and it's spinning like a top, now. Thanks for everyone's help! I'll throw a link up to my channel next time I decide to broadcast.
Aracely Mcalvey 16.09.2011	So the dual 1/4" to RCA were out of stock, and they cancelled my order, but that might be a good thing. You all had previously mentioned that the 1/4" plugs need to be TRS (balanced)...but I can't find dual 1/4" TRS to RCA....i'm not even sure they make them. Am I going to damage my S4 if I use dual 1/4" TS to RCA cable in the balanced out?
Aracely Mcalvey 14.09.2011	Thanks for your help, guys! I ordered both off amazon cheaper than Radioshack sells the RCA to 1/8" new.

Leeanna Ayla 12.09.2011	That Hosa 1/4 to 1/8 would be your best bet.
Aracely Mcalvey 12.09.2011	Not much of an output on my main speakers...It's all optical (it's a surround sound system, technically...but it really works for my bedroom, haha). I've basically got the S4 going out and into the AUX in on the speakers....so I'm believeing if I have to do it via hardware, i would need to go out of the S4 via RCA, split it to go into the 3/8" of my macbook, and also into the AUX input of my speakers... just trying to figure out what I need to get a radioshack to make this happen, while simultaneously trying my best not to add to the huge ass bird nest of wires behind my desk...
Leeanna Ayla 12.09.2011	Why don't you connect the speakers to the S4? EDIT: I get it now. you need two of these [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Pyramid-RY6-Male-Female-Adaptor/dp/B0007LCKJQ/ref=sr_1_8?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1315881895&sr =1-8"]Amazon.com: Pyramid RY6 1 Male to 2 Female RCA Adaptor: Electronics@@AMEPARAM@@http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31zQ8AmF43L.@@AMEPARAM@@31zQ8AmF43L[/ame] And then you go to your speakers and your line in on your mac. You can also get two 1/4" to RCA adapters and use the 1/4" outs. Or you could get this and just keep your speakers on the RCA's and run the 1/4" to the line in on the computer.

Harley Zitka 12.09.2011	Get some 1/4 to RCA adapters for your monitors, and then run the RCA output to the input on the Mac. Done!
Leeanna Ayla 12.09.2011	You have to run a line in to the input on your computer. Are you monitoring on the built on speakers?
