Once the Audio Setup is created select the multi-channel USB soundcard from the soundcard field instead. If this is the case, use COMPUTER AUDIO from the HARDWARE Options. Not all cards will be detected in the HARDWARE options by VirtualDJ, but can still be used. Select SEPARATE DECKS from the OUTPUT options and the multi-Channel soundcard to be used from the HARDWARE options. In the case where set-up is not obvious, consult the appropriate documentation for the soundcard and/or the mixer to ensure the proper connections are made.

Headphone and speaker connections will be made at the appropriate places on the mixer itself. Connect outputs 3 & 4 of the external soundcard to Inputs 3 & 4 of the mixer. 2 DECKS Connect Outputs 1 & 2 of the external soundcard to Inputs 1 & 2 of the analog mixer. An Analog Mixer or Pro Infinity License is required to use this audio configuration. With the audio routing done exclusively through the external mixer, the internal mixer of VirtualDJ (Volume faders, EQ, Crossfader ,PFL) will remain untouched as there is no way for an analog mixer to send a digital signal back to the software. Settings - Audio Setup EXTERNAL MIXER In order to use an external (analog) mixer, a Soundcard with a minimum of 2 stereo outputs is required since each VirtualDJ deck configured for external mixer use requires a dedicated stereo channel.
