CDJ800 with mp3?

been reading through the manuel but it doesnt mention the exact cable required to link the cdj up to the computer (if this is possible).

so i was wonderng if anybody has theirs linked up to the computer, if so, what cables are required?

also if you cant then how do you get the use out of the mp3 capabilities?

thanks

First, there is no way to hookup a cdj to a computer. It is not possible. Second, if you want to use mp3s, you must have a cdj-800mk2 and make an mp3 cd.

You cant "hook up the Cdj to your computer"

The Mp3 compability means you can burn bunch of mp3s on a CD (not making it an audio CD) and it will play them. You can fit more songs if you burn it as data.

You can control MP3s on your pc with your CDJ by using Serato, FS or Torq or something.

Good luck
