DDJ T1 Headphone Monitoring

Purchased a DDJ T1 a few weeks back, absolutely love it ... but struggling to monitor using headphones, presumably it's something through the settings in traktor that needs to be rectified, but I'm really unsure, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Are they not working? Low volume? Try running setup wizard again. Then try another set of head phones if all else fails

Hey, there is nothing wrong with traktor itself ... + i have a brand new pair of HDJ 500s, so i am unsure to the problem

would it be something to do with the fact I'm running the master from the built in output on my macbook as opposed to the DDJ itself?

More than likely. There is no way to set two different audio sources. Set the master to left channel and monitor/cue to right channel just as a test.

I just did as I thought ... used a cable to hook the DDJ up to the monitors for master and then went into preferences to find that it now would enable me to monitor through headphones! ... peculiar however that you can't monitor when using the built in, it's quite a hassle to change cables over and what not. Perhaps there's a driver to download that enables this. Thanks for your help nonetheless :)

Also, not using the wall-power will result in a lower volume headphone monitoring.

@S B > Yes; you should use the external power supply whenever possible.

Hi I just bought my ddj t1 and I am not able to monitor using my headphones. I can only hear music through my headphones when i turn up the volume on my channel. This makes it impoosible for me to beatmatch. What settings do i have to do in traktor 2 to make it possible for me to monitor with my headphones?
