Not dead project

Hello, 2012 !!

I know... it's now the end of the year and I haven't written anything since 2011.
Not because I didn't work on this project, but because I have maturing ideas and making different plans.
So.. I decided to make many changes and move forward to bring this project out of the studio. How?

Since I bought the Docking station for the laptop, I believed the machine would work with it, but unfortunately, there was too much delay between the sound backgrounds and the drums, and the beat was running out on the 8th bar.
If you lost this chapter, read here:

What to do !? If I can not use the Drums of the machine, I will not use but I will not drop this project and abandon everything only because the drums are going out of synch, so I decided to not use the drums of the machine and this will let me with only the background sounds wish now... are complete tracks made on Ableton projected to be overdub with the sounds of the kaossilator into a mixer ;)

I have many ideas, but I am writing this now to let you know that this project has only just begun.

Next, I have 108 new tracks (backgrounds) to work on in Ableton and set up to upload into the machine. From there, I will return to leave more information. Until then,
Keep it experimental and ... mental ;)


Chapter 10 - Connections

WAVDJ Connections

Here is where the problems begin in the first place.
The wavdj works with an ancient software program, and the connections are designed to work with old PCs.
So, here is the first problematic connection I talk about...




This one, connect the WAVDJ to the mouse connection in the PC Some of the new PCs don't have this connection anymore.
I bought an adapter for this, but was there a problem there where it started? The machine didn't work correctly!
If you've been reading this blog from the beginning, you know I have to change the WAV DJ from my music PC to my older home PC for this to work.

Here are more connections...




This is where the wavdj connects for sound on the back. All of this must be associated with the PC or machine, and the sound will not come out as it should.
All these are the standard PC connections, and they have to be all connected to the PC sound card or will not work correctly.

And on the side...


The user connections are:

1- line in (here is where I connect the Kaossilator)
2- Audio output (where I connect the output cable to my Amplifier)
3- Mic input (I don't use it for now, but it can be helpful later to connect something else)
4- Audio output (I try to connect the headphones on this one, but the sound volume is cut off !)
5- Mic input (The mixer has space for just 1 mic , I don't know why I have 2 mic inputs... )

Now it's all connected and working fine ;) uffff....
