  2. Awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! new firmware for for dns3700, hybrib mode will be for me. still will need a DVS thou, cant wait to see it )
  3. Hercules RMX, its a mid Range Midi Controller lol LOL Ahhh yes, never used it, ive got the m-audio xponent for my mobile setup
  4. Thanks for the warm welcome every1
  5. Nah down in Brisvegas ATM, not much here for me as far as djin, so once im fully set up lookin to move down to sydney or melbourne
  6. Hiya Raptor, yea gots all good, short as audio leads and my dj rig is a 17" lappy with core2duo 2.4ghz, 4gb ram, dedicated 512mb gf8800gt and specialy bought HDD for djin. works great with my mobile setup (xponent and traktor). the lappy is just for djin and i have stripped down windows to the bare minimum needed for rinning my gear. works great. you r right its not the sound card itself (as long as it supports ASIO), it is the amound of data format changes (eg. DACs, ADCs, USB, ect) along the way from you interaction device (decks) to you speakers), every change will reduce sound quality and increase latency. if i knew that the dns3700s were going to be so much trouble i wouldnt have got them and bought an audio 8 and used my sl1200s insted. but i have decided to keep them and attempt to make a setup even better then the standard ADC DAC time code vinyl setup. Cheers
  7. Hiya DJaz, yea i agree.... VDJ is not as good as Traktor, i want to try and stick with Traktor. im have never been a fan of macs and the price is fare to much in my opinion but osx allows device aggregation which allows you to use more then one audio device at a time, windows seems to have trouble addressing more then one. there are work arounds for windows but every one i have had expirience with either doesnt work properly or is really buggy Cheers dude
  8. Hiya, Im Andy AKA LiGhTeN PrOJeCt, never realy networked in the DJ comunity, always kept to my self and taught myself everything, lookin to make a few connections. Was resident DJ for hamilton island for a few years (300 head club) and have done a lot other big gigs. long story short: i sold most of my stuff (fridge, microwave, washing machine, furniture, ect,ect) and left the island and a couple high payin jobs for this awesome chick (model\make up artist)and i was going to dedicate myself to fulltime production/DJin and try n make a livin of that but......... she didn't end up delivering all she promised (place to stay, room for studio ect, ect, till i got on my feet) and she went all weird within the first week. this really messed with my head that i could be that stupid and i had sold all my stuff and spent all my cash movin down and in with her, so i was financially messed up to. anyway that stuffed me up for the last few months, but i'm over that now and gettin my new setup worked out so i can start performing/producing again. love to help any of u out and really appreciate any help you can give me. cheers LP
  9. ok, so im a dj looking to move to the digital(dark) side, been having a lot of trouble trying to get my gear the way i want it. my first priority is ultra low latency, so when i touch the vinyl on the deck the sound coming out of my speakers is as close to using real vinyl decks as possible (latency wise). i purchased a pair of decks (dennon dns 3700) each had their own sound card built inside which controls internal midi in/out for the spinning plater ,buttons and lights ect, and the sound output of the decks via spdif/digital or Stereo analogue RCA. i use the spdif as i believe it will provide better sound and lower latency, because it doesn't require DAC conversion (tell me if i'm wrong). i want the DAC done in my genelec speakers. the idea using these decks was to limit latency by having everything done in the decks rather then having a time code disk or vinyl and an external usb sound card which would lead to more conversion latency. IE: timecode disk to ADC to usb to computer/software to usb to DAC to mixer and finaly ADC of the digital/spdif out of my mixer. ok now that all sounds great but i have been having several problems. my software of choice is Traktor, but Traktor doesn't natively support the dns 3700 and even though i can bodgy up a midi map the spinning platter still doesn't work properly AND on top of that even if i use different software (virtualdj) i cant get 2 decks to simultaneously work properly under windows. so i have changed my plan. 1- change from pc to mac : macs allow you to use two decks/sound devices simultaneously 2- change sofware to virtualdj: so i can use the spinning platters (but i do love traktor) and if im still not happty with the spinning platter situation under virtual dj 3- go back to Traktor and use timcode disks with 1/2 internal PciE sound card/s with 2 digital/Spdif ins and 2 digital/spdif outs : this will lower the latency by eliminating the usb connection latency, improve sound and lower latency by using only digital audio. IE: Timcode to digital audio to computer/software to digital audio to mixer/speakers My questions are 1- is there any incorrect assumptions in my statement 2- any help getting any of my earlier or latter setup ideas working properly 3- what sound card/s should i use with the mac given that im using standard rca conectors for digital audio transmision i have done hours and hours of research on all of this but the research required is getting broader and deeper also i forked out a lot of cash for gear that doesnt work the way i want by being misled by manufacturers or misunderstanding manufacturer info so i want to know all i can before i spend any more money. that said i'm going to get a couple apple macs and the DJM 800 has always been a super solid backbone of my gear. Thankyou for any help
