Audio multi-channel guide
To use your headphones with your MIDI controller, you must use the option “headphones preview with multi-channel soundcard”. But it is possible that only 1 stereo output is detected instead of 2 outputs. In this case, follow the instructions below.
Contrary to other DJ software which can have direct access to the audio hardware, YouDJ relies on the browser audio capabilities, WebAudio and HTML5. The browser uses the audio settings of the operating system.
Audio configuration needed on Windows 11
Click on “Search” in the Windows 11 menu bar, type mmsys.cpl, and press Enter on your keyboard.
After the sound settings are opened, select your speakers and click Configure.
Choose Quadraphonic or 5.1 Surround from the list, then click Next.
Check Center, Subwoofer and Side pair, probably already checked, then click Next a few times to finish the configuration.
Finally, reload the DJ app!
Audio configuration needed on macOS
Go to Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup, or search for “Audio MIDI Setup”.
Select the MIDI audio soundcard on the left, right-click, and select Use this device for sound output.
Click on Configure Speakers..., the button on the bottom right, and select Quadraphonic, or 5.1, instead of Stereo.
Finally, reload the DJ app!
Audio configuration needed on Windows 7, 8 and 10
All the output channels of the MIDI soundcard should be enabled by default, so you should have nothing to do. If by any chance not all outputs are detected, follow the instructions for Windows 11 above.
Audio configuration needed on ChromeOS
In the latest version of ChromeOS, all the output channels of the soundcard should be enabled by default, so you have nothing to do. On the oldest version of ChromeOS, multi-channel soundcards are not supported.
