sam broadcaster questions

hey i have sam broadcaster 2 is ok but i have sum questions that i hope u can solve

1) can u get more players u really need 3 players
2) my sam likes to cut some seconds of a song anybody know how to solve that it changes with the song that u load up and it does this on both players
3) any body run this on two screens does the 2nd screen have anything more on it


thanks seedy21

1. By player do you mean decks, and no you can only have two decks
2. It shows that it cuts the first few seconds of the song but when you actually play the song it doesn't cut any of it.
2. I run it on 1 screen, its easier. To add and remove things onto one page click window and tick it if you want it on that page and if you dont make sure it is unticked.

thanks just have one question thou

do they do any keypads for sam ?????


thanks seedy21

Like play a jingle over a song?
We use the sound FX window.

ahhhh i neaver thought of that. do any of your djs use a mixer or do u all just plug a mic in use the software ????

Well if you want to be fancyish you can use a mixer. The easiest thing to do is plug it in and use it. You tend to learn most of it after you get a bit of experience with using it :)

1) No you cannot get more than two decks

2) You can change the settings of how fast the song changes by using "DJ Control"

3) I run it all on the one screen i have my main priority's on desktop A such as Deck A, Deck B, DJ Control, Playlist, Queue, Voice FX, History, Sound Fx and most importantly Encoders. Everything else goes in a different window as i don't really need it.
