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!

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.

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.
