Maddogg6 will become famous soon enoughMaddogg6 will become famous soon enough

Its manual specs out a DirectSound WDM compatable soundcard - which means any KX supported card would work - but....

Are SBLives still sold? - Search these forums for SBLive bugs - I think I recall something about that somewhere, but many refer to their card as an SBXXXX (Mine being a SB0350 = Audigy2 ZS) - so that search may not get all results.

Maybe someone can recommend card(s) to avoid.? Id bet that would be a smaller list than cards that will work..??

vibra cards will not work with kX, just so you know
some audigy 2 value cards have issues with kX - please check the relevant threads
but the live card you have there should work just fine , as will the audigy ES (not LS)

i'd recommend taking the a2v if you can get it to work, other wise the ES card is a pretty decent one (i have one as my secondary card right now)

finally,

i had spent almost 24 hrs for my setup, searching other users' problem with anything related in this forum working out like configuring in DSP.

as my idea, my headphone is getting crazy. my headphone doesn't give me the way i want to work like a real dj headphone which is PHILIPS SBC HP200. the beats from my headphone is like surrounding or sub-woffer beat. so it is good for the movie or giming user.

so i'm here again with a question that
"What is the best headphone for kx project (for dj user)?".

seem like i need to save money again for headphone on next. (

thank you

PCDJ Red, Red VRm and FX

PCDJ Red 5.3 (Old Version) Red VRM and FX VRM all work fine using KX supported Cards.
I have 2 Machines.
Machine 1 Runs RPCDJ Red 5.3 and has a SB Live Plat 5.1 and is set up to use PCDJ with a Real Mixing Desk. Player A routed to front out and player b routed to rear out.
The Other Machine is running PCDJ Red VRM (basically the same as FX but with less funtions)
The sound board is a Augility 2 ZS and the same sort of setup is used.
Player A to front out and Player B to Rear Out
Now as far as I know PCDJ Red, Red VRM and FX are desinged more for people hat want to use a Real mixing desk but thay all have a software mixer built into the software.
Thay also suport auto play (My 2nd machine sits in a clothing store playing music all day)
So any 10K* card supported by KX will work.
But depending on how you wish to use pcdj you must set PCD and the KX DSP correctly.
On my systems I have Connected the FXBus6/7 to Front Out and FXBus8/9 to Rear Out
Then sellected the correct Sound Cards in PCDJ eg KX Wave 6/7 and KX Wave 8/9
Connected a Real Mixer and hay I am DJing :-)
