Setup Questions

Post by Beef » Mon Apr 02, 2007 12:57 am

Hi....I'm pretty new to this whole thing and would apprciate some advice on my setup, I have the following :

PC running XP SP1
M-Audio 2496
1 x technics 1210
1x Pioneer DJM 500
AMP
Monitor speakers
CDJ 100

....question is do I need anything else to run Ms Pinky....do I need a pre-amp or DAC? I'm a little confused...Thanks :shock:

A phono preamp is recommended because the inputs to the 2496 apparently need line-level signals...

And since it's got just two inputs and two outputs, that's enough for just one turntable.

I'd actually recommend that if you're going to get into the whole digital turntable thing that you invest in an M-Audio Conectiv.... It will give you easy, direct turntable connections (no preamps required) for two decks, and 4 outs as well.
