Q
CM200USB DJ Mixer
Q: What are the USB ports for?
A: They are for playing audio from your computer into your mixer and/or for
recording audio from your mixer into your computer. You can simultaneously play
two streams into the mixer and record two streams from your mixer (being able to
record and play back at the same time is known as "full duplex").
Q: Why use USB rather than the computer's built-in sound card?
A: Most laptops and desktops come with a single minimal quality built-in sound card
which is unsuitable for live use. The CM200USB gives you a digital connection from
your computer to your mixer, so the sound quality is excellent.
Q: Why are there two USB ports?
A: This is so that you can play two audio streams from your computer into your
mixer, or play streams from two separate computers. If you only have one USB port
available on your computer or laptop, you can purchase a USB1.1 hub very
inexpensively.
Q: Is this a computer control surface?
A: The mixing controls on the CM200USB do not control software on your computer.
The mixer receives streaming audio from your computer, and the mixing controls
work on that audio in real time. This is better than a control surface, since the
latency (response time) is much lower than if the mixing was done inside your
computer.
Q: Will it work with a Mac?
A: Yes, the CM200USB will work with Mac or PC.
FA
Q: What kinds of drivers are needed?
A: The CM200USB works with your computer's native USB drivers. No installation
discs are necessary. It's plug-and-play.
Q: Are ASIO drivers available?
A: Third-party ASIO drivers are available. However, since the mixing controls are
operating on the audio in real time, the response to your mixing moves will be
instantaneous. When you use this mixer with your compu ter, it's no different from
using this mixer with an analog source. So, when you move the crossfader on the
CM200USB , the delay will be much less than if you move a crossfader on a
computer mixing surface, regardless of what kind of drivers it uses.
Q: What software is included?
A: We currently include a demo version of Alcatech BPM Studio, which is a DJ
program for playing music files. We will include additional software titles in t he
future. The CM200USB will work with virtually any Mac or PC software program that
supports dual sound cards.
