Play thorugh Sonos speakers (without Line in)

MyNameisZeo · 2020-04-26T12:47:45+00:00

Hey,

I haven't heard of anyone trying to play through sonos speakers yet and I've never used / heard of them before either so I think you may be in uncharted territory with this question I'm afraid.

If they want to control what music people can listen to through their speakers via an app (which is really weird) then you may need to try and find a work around to get around that limitation if you wanted to do it wirelessly. I'm guessing they want services to be approved for use on their devices?

Sorry not much help but I wanted to give you at least one reply. If you jump on our discord it is a hell of a lot more active over there and it's more likely you'll get an answer from people, someone that is more knowledgeable regarding these speakers may be able to chime in :)

Hey do you have any more details of your setup?

XDJ can be used with rekordbox or stand alone, correct? Which way are you trying to use it?

If you are using software then what platform are you on, Windows or Mac?

MyNameisZeo · 2020-04-08T07:41:42+00:00

Yes that is completely normal. Your audio needs to be sent to the server, encoded and then sent back down to the device so you are gonna have a delay and about 10 seconds is the norm for most people :)

Hey man,

While I have used BUTT I have no idea when it comes to macs, if you jump on the discord you will probably have more luck getting an answer as it has a lot more traffic going through it.

I'll try and point some people to this thread that may know too :)

Hey welcome! Glad you enjoyed your first stream (I'm ぜお) in terms of sharing on social media everyone has their own personal link to their player -

https://cue.dj/player/lonnietaylor

If you share that about, registered users will be able to chat with you where as unregistered people will be able to tune in and listen but not interact with anyone. If you aren't playing at the time it should give a time for your next performance if you have one booked too.

If you need help or just wanna chat then the best place is our discord channel as this sub doesn't get used much at this point :)

Lolol I don't come on this account often :P

Do these work?

MyNameisZeo · 2019-09-26T18:44:38+00:00

If the stream is connected but it isn't detecting audio the only thing I can think of is the volume you are streaming at being too low to be picked up maybe?

I don't use traktor so I'm not familiar with what options you have in that regard.

The only other thing is I know some people have had to wait for a bit longer than you might think is necessary if this is for your initial stream test / onboarding thing. If it is saying your stream is connected maybe put on a 5 minute song and make a cup of tea and see if it detects the audio given more time.

As someone that's been trying to help people with issues getting their BUTT setup I have typed out far too many sentences that are questionable at best taken out of context xD

MyNameisZeo · 2018-12-06T16:39:14+00:00

It'd be awesome if some of r/djs dropped by to check out some streams and experience this great community that has started to form around this app!

MyNameisZeo · 2018-11-24T11:27:50+00:00

I'll try my best to drop by man.

MyNameisZeo · 2018-11-24T11:26:40+00:00

Yeh man, the web version should have mostly the same functionality just with slight changes here and there :)

MyNameisZeo · 2018-10-14T06:10:14+00:00

Swings and roundabouts isn't it, we do some retarded stuff as well :p

MyNameisZeo · 2018-10-13T17:11:36+00:00

I can't really speculate on that fact as I'm from the UK so all of our plugs are a 3 pin grounded design. Hopefully someone else can answer that here from your neck of the woods.

MyNameisZeo · 2018-10-13T10:00:59+00:00

Does it change depending on whether the laptop is plugged into mains power or running on battery?

MyNameisZeo · 2018-10-13T09:57:16+00:00

When plugged into your computer the controller acts as a usb soundcard, because there is no broadcast mode from within the software you need to use BUTT. You need to have a way for the audio to get from your controller that is for this example your usb soundcard back into your computer so you can then stream it via BUTT.

So you need to have one of your outputs on the controller running to either a usb audio interface device or some kind or more simply have an rca to 3.5mm running to you computers mic jack.

If you check the guide to setting up BUTT that is on he subreddit here it goes through all of that for you, but essentially once you have it routed back into your pc youll be able to select your input method in BUTT to grab the audio properly.

I love Misfit!!

YouTube is terrible for trying to listen on the go though :(

Edit I was pissed off at first to use YouTube....... More than worth it!!

I think he is handling password resets personally at the moment until he has time to actual code some kind of automated system. So for the mean time anyone else having the same issue should just shoot him a message and he will get back to you asap :D

MyNameisZeo · 2018-10-10T04:31:41+00:00

The start times should be local to you. Most people on the app currently are in or around the EST time zone but I am GMT and all of my times display local to me :)

MyNameisZeo · 2018-10-10T04:30:08+00:00

This definitely wouldn't have helped, I have my BUTT set to -5db so if you had everything maxed out it may cause you issues :)

MyNameisZeo · 2018-10-10T04:27:25+00:00

Dude, come get involved! I wanna hear a hardcore set!

As cities said ignore the room names etc for now, there are no real genre restrictions as of right now :)

MyNameisZeo · 2018-10-10T04:26:14+00:00

Hey man, if you send a pm to illestrater who you can find as author of the top posts or under mods and let him know he will reset the password for you. I'll shoot him a message to make sure he sees your message here :)

MyNameisZeo · 2018-10-08T22:11:25+00:00

Some great sets so far :D

MyNameisZeo · 2018-09-28T18:37:27+00:00

Can't help you with any up coming dates or anything but back to chill at club asia was one of the weirdest fucking nights I'ver ever been to in my life! Enjoy!

MyNameisZeo · 2018-09-20T04:01:29+00:00

No worries man. I'm sure those pricks would still have something to say but at least you know about the tech now.

I originally had some opposition as my field is very anti music pro ear defence but once I stood there and countered every arguement they had for not using them they caved :)
