Serato as an Audio Interface??
Serato as an Audio Interface?? Posted on: 23.05.2008 by Mike FlowWolf Hi sorry if it is a dumb question, can you use serato as an audio interface? i wanted similar setup to ean golden, i prefer mixing on the actual mixer, so the dedicated headphone jack is not important (pretty sure serato doesnt have one) can you plug serato in , and select the two outputs on traktor to serato, then into your mixer? and what does ASIO drivers mean? thanks | |

| Ryan Morales 25.05.2008 | I own an Audio Kontrol 1, its great (does pretty much everything I want now perfectly, MIDI controls are nice + it looks awesome), But its got 2 distinct downsides: 1. Its only got 1 Stereo Input and 2 Stereo Outs, as Ean said you really want something with more outputs (3+) for DJing, and probably more inputs also, as it will be better in the long run. 2. The inputs are Line in, so if you did want to connect a turntable into it you would need to get a phono-preamp like I have done (not a biggie, only $40-50, just means more gear /cables). I recommend the Saffire LE, or the NI Audio 8, which are a bit more expensive but IMO def worth it. |
| Mike FlowWolf 25.05.2008 | yeah i got one serato box...ok im going to invest in and Audio Kontrol, done the research and seems like the best option! thanks guys |
| remy deroche 24.05.2008 | i have 2 serato boxes(don't ask) and i have tried the asio drivers, http://scratchlive.net/community
/discuss...ssion_id=38253 save yourself some time and frustration and just go out and get a soundcard. its nice to know that the ssl box can do a half ass job as a soundcard from '95, but there just is no comparison to actual soundcards of today. if you want to take alook at the frustration of others, just search the scratchlive.net community .... http://scratchlive.net/community /search/?q=ASIO+drivers+ good luck to ya. |
| 24.05.2008 | do you already have a Serato box? if so, I could understand re-using it but if not then buy a good sound card with 3 stereo pairs of outputs. |
| Mike FlowWolf 23.05.2008 | ok thanks for that tip? why is it recomended to have a serparate audio interface? not worrying about dedicated headphones jacks... is latency good, and is it responsive? |
