Cueing on a regular mixer with 2 PCs
View this Thread in Original format

If I was going to mix 2 songs that are playing on different computers and both computers are hooked up to a mixer.

I have a Behringer 1604A (Yes I know , not good but cheap) and its not a DJ mixer. I read the manual and not sure if its possible or not. To set one channel to send signal to headphones and other one just to play on speakers so I can beatmatch and then mix together by adding volume.

So basically 2 computers are plugged in the mixer (same as having 2 turntables) on different channels obviously. But Im not sure if my mixer has the functions of previewing and then adding volume and mixing in speakers. Thanks

If you want to mix properly (beatmatching) your going to need dj software, just do a search on the forums for things like Traktor, PCDJ, DssDJ and Virtual DJ.
I dont see why you wouldnt be able to mix aslong as you can cue.

Oh

Well I got Traktor 3 on both machines, I dont have dual souncard thats why im trying to mix in 2 PCs. I like the process of beatmatching in the Headphones and then adding volume to the monitors

yup, this should be possible. just hit mute on the channel you want to cue in your headphones. this'll route the channel to your alt 3-4 bus instead of the main speakers. there should be a button that you can press to route the alt 3-4 bus to headphones. hope this helps.
