Pre-Cueing with Headphones

Preview and prepare the next song through headphones: By enabling djay's Split Output mode you can cue songs through headphones independently from the mix that goes through the main speakers for live DJing.

All you need is the Griffin DJ Cable, designed exclusively for djay. The master output will be sent to the left channel and the cue output to the right channel (which is always the opposite turntable to the one audible through the master channel). You will get a binaural signal for master and pre-cueing, so you will hear sound on both speakers connected to the master channel and in both ears of the headphones connected to the pre-cueing channel.

For more control and output options, djay additionally supports multi-route audio on iOS 6.
