how to use 2 different soundcards for master & headphones? Want to use a Dante Setup

Hy,

 

atm im playing on my mobile gigs on a ddj100 and like to use my dante virtual soundcard for the main out since i have a full dante enabled pa. of Course it's no Problem to choose the dante virtual soundcard for the Output but then i have no Chance to use the headphones on the ddj 1000. how to solve this? in vdj for example it's no Problem to choose different soundcards for different Outputs.

On my nxs2 rig im playing via spdif to dante converter to Keep the signalchain full digital without unecessary d/a a/d  conversions but how to solve this on controllers?

 

thx for your help in advance!

thx for your answer pulse, i know the asio bidge driver very well, thats not really a solution because latency is gettin worse :-/

Ha - always the PC causing the problem. ;)

On Mac you could use a variety of options to effectively double the outputs, so you could use the DDJ in its normal configuration for headphone and master output, then spy on the master output and route it to the other desired output (be it software or hardware).

Unfortunately Windows doesn't have the same flexibility as the ASIO drivers aren't as forgiving as Core Audio.

Which software did you try using on the Mac? There are more options, and many are really quite low latency... Loopback, AudioHijack, Jack (JackRouter), or even creating a multiple-output device with the system Audio devices.

we are working with several audio Routing Drivers on win and mac in our studio.  latency at least doubles thats unavoidable by design of such routing/bridging solutions no matter if you're on win or mac the Problem stays the same.

Well yeah, any time you hand signal through another step, there is some increase, but some systems are better than others.

If you're trying to get the lowest possible latency, my recommendation would be to use a multi-output scenario where the signal is sent to both the DDJ and the Dante driver simultaneously. This would allow you to send from rekordbox to the master and headphones as expected, but the master would then be duplicated to the Dante driver, and any latency added would be minimal, with a greater latency introduced through audio delay from the speaker outputs than there would be from the drivers themselves.
