Aug 10, 2017 Searched the web for the answer but to no success. I was on the phone to they guy from the DJ SHOP in Southampton but it seems like its a problem with the Virtual DJ software. ( I can hear the sound coming from my speakers when watching a YouTube video ) I am using the Numark Party Mix card. I have tried all the inputs. Could someone please help?

  1. Click on the finder or the apple Icon and highlight the system preferences tab.
  2. Double click on the system Preferences tab and then double click on the Sound icon.
  3. Make sure only your MAC's internal sound card is selected, or your preferred external audio interface is selected here.

Before you double-check the soundcard assignments, make sure to do the following:

  • Push up all faders to about halfway, just enough to make sure there will be audio passing through.
  • Set the crossfader in the center. If it's pushed off to the side, you will only hear one channel.
  • Set the Master Gain, Cue Mix, and Cue Gain knobs in the center, or 12 o'clock.
  • Be sure to drag/load a song onto a deck in Virtual DJ and press the play button on that deck.

Virtual Dj 8 No Sound Card Error

While some laptops have internal surround sound cards and/or speakers, most only have a single headphone output. The simplest option is to add a basic stereo USB soundcard or audio interface for your headphones, such as the Numark DJ I/O.

  1. If you are using an external USB soundcard, assign the Audio Settings as follows:
    • Output: Speaker + Headphone
    • Card: Two Soundcards
    • Outputs: Headphones (Master : First card / Headphones : Second card)
  2. In the Outputs section, choose the following:
    • In the first drop-down list, choose your laptop's built-in sound card.
    • In the second drop-down, choose your external USB sound card.
  3. Click Apply to complete.

Mono with a Y splitter cable:

You can use a single sound card and the mono separated option in VirtualDJ's sound setup, however, this will only give you MONO sound. You will need a Y-splitter cable to split the left/right channels. Plug the splitter cable into your sound card's headphone socket. Then plug your amplified speakers into the left output socket and your headphones into the right.

  1. In the Audio Settings tab, choose the following:
    • Output: Speaker + Headphone
    • Card: Stereo to Mono Splitter
    • Master: Set to your soundcard - Chan 1 (mono)
    • Headphones: Set to your soundcard - Chan 2 (mono)
  2. Click Apply to complete.
