I only have a normal sound card in my laptop so I designed a cable to connect with the mixer and works perfectly.
Get a normal RCA cable cut in the middle joint the 2 red leads and also the 2 black leads seperatly, you now have RIGHT and LEFT channels, at the other end solder a plug for you sound card output, then connect the RIGHT leads on 1 channel of your mixer the other LEFT leads to 2 channel on the mixer, go to configuration of the VDJ sound card and choose SPEAKER/HEADPHONES.
You should now be able to monitor any song in one of the channel while the other one it's playing to the public (EASY) and very cheap.
Use only LEFT channel as main output, if you have a DJ CONSOLE without sound card use the faders to switch between songs and the monitoring buttons for pre monitoring.
Maybe it looks complicated but it's very very easy it's a question of practice.
Just one smmal problem, you dont get a STEREO effect but that's not a problem try it out.
GOOD MIXING
