CDJ-350, DJM-350 setup, need buying tips Posted on: 16.04.2012 by Maricela Wyres Hey guys, I'm really new to this and am looking to purchase 2 CDJ-350's and DJM-350 today.I just had a question regarding monitors and accessories. Is it possible to hook up to a computer speaker set (Creative L3800)? I know I should probably get some basic studio monitors, but I'm trying to not buy everything all at once and max out my credit card limit. If the computer speakers are a no, then can you give some recommendations on what monitors I should get? Looking for something inexpensive as I am just learning and will be practicing for a while. Also, what cables would I need to connect the mixer to the speakers or the monitors? Look forward to your suggestions! | |

Mimi Mahaffee 17.04.2012 | Yes it's possible. An easy way for you is buying a adapter that looks like this http://www.computercableinc.com/ccin...Cables&id=3138 and you put your 3.5mm which usually goes into your comp to the black end and the white/red into the mixer master output (djm 350). You are on the right way to get better speakers, it will be worth it for sure. I'm crying all the time i see people with 4000 dollar mixertables and 50 dollar speakers. If I were you i'd look for used cdj 400s instead of the cdj 350, then you will save enough money for a decent pair of speakers, like the yamaha HM80. The 350 is nothing that i recommend.. the jogwheel is pure shit compared to other stuff. |
Deeanna Gripshover 17.04.2012 | Hello mate, Welcome to the community
. I'm presuming your computer speakers will have a 3.5mm jack so to connect them to your mixer you'll need one of these http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000I23TTE plugged straight into your master out. Hope that helps. |
