I have Audioengine 5 speakers already. If I buy this Dingsboom will I be able to plug it into the speakers and access FM stations? Do I need to plug it into my Mac computer? Does it also receive over the FM air band stations? How is it different from...

I don't think that will work. These are receivers for specific transmitters that AE sells separately. If you have an AE transmitter at your computer, you could transmit things like ITUNES music or Internet audio throughout your house. You'd receive the signal with these then connect your amplier or amplified speaker to the mini jack on the W3R.

I have it hooked up thru MIDI (not USB) as there are no USB ports on this. I'm using the DD-65 to play the sounds from my computer. No lag. Works great.

I use my on my desktop. It was easy to install (plug it in) and the sound is good but I do not know what other things the speakers can work on. Sorry.

So, I deleted my earlier post. Getting 2 audio sources to play simultaneously is actually pretty easy. The mixamp has a line in for spdif (optical) and your typical aux 3.5mm jack. I hooked my computer via spdif and my TV via aux. You'll get both AND be able to toggle the balance with the right earcup game/VoIP switch. (I initially thought it didn't work, as I was 100% to my computer source, hence my deleted answer. Don't make my mistake). I would recommend the spdif from your console and aux from your computer, you'll get better in game sound. The balance feature is really nice, and it is tailored to your exact needs.

Hi, I am not sure what you are asking. You don't plug your phone to sound card (PC) do you? But you can plug your phone or out put from your PC to this then to your amp. It is not as good as BBE, but it costs half the price and the sound is good enough, you don't want your music to sound too "artificial". I think this works like an EQ with some compressions and expansions effects. It is very easy to use, you don't need a manual to learn to use it, For the price, it worth every pennies. I have it for over 3 years and it is still just like new.

You will need to hook this up to a sound generator. This could be a computer, drum machine, or keyboard. Anything that has midi. This unit send the signal from the triggered source to the sound generator then to the speaker system You have one missing link. Then you will get it to work.

if i unplug the headphones the fm signals remains, this model doesn't have a speaker you'll need wired headphones or pc speaker to listen, kind of low aoutput volume this way. The sbh52 has speaker.

The USB EWI is a midi controller and connects to the couputer through a USB cable, so you need a USB port. It also draws its power thru the USB port. It comes with Garritan software that generates the sounds for the different instruments. Has LOTS of sounds and they are excellent! It helps to have a good quality sound card, but is not necessary. You can upgrade your computer sounds and speakers later if you want. Most modern computers have plenty of processing speed. The software runs under Windows so you need that. I run mine on a desktop computer with a SoundBlaster card and speakers. I also run it on a laptop with a Soundblaster plug in. The instrument sounds range from very good to excellent. My favorites sounds are the clarinets, flutes, and violins. The brass instruments are quite good as well. There are some good online sites to get help. ewiusb dot com is very good and you can google "Bernie Kenerson" for lessons. He will give live lessons via Skype and is an outstanding EWI musician. I had Bells' Palsy for two years and was unable to play my clarinet and saxophones because half of my face was paralyzed. I COULD play my EWI though and used it in my church orchestra. I ran it with my laptop and plugged the sound into the sound system and no one could tell the difference between my EWI and my clarinet. There are also additional sound libraries you can get later to expand your number of available instruments.

Let me give you an overview of how this works: This mixer is not a "soundcard" type device, rather it is a simple mixer that will hook up to your computer using the digital USB port. It allows for external sources (music players, microphones, guitars, etc.) to be routed to your computer's USB port as a STEREO ONLY (left & right audio channels) input device. Using USB for an input will give you a cleaner audio signal that using old analog cables (RCA, 1/4", etc.) This mixer is not controlled by the computer, but there are audio parameters that you can adjust on your PC computer. If you go to START&gt;CONTROL PANEL&gt;SOUND there you can find the global audio settings for the computer. After installation you "may" find some additional settings such as Overall Volume, Left or Right Panning, Input Levels and Output Levels as well as what devices are available. This mixer is not a multi-track recording mixer/soundcard, but you can record up to 2 independent channels (left and right) at once, and using recording software such as Cakewalk, Magix Music, Adobe, etc. you can build up a recording using two tracks at a time. This is a great little mixer to start with for uses that do not require advanced audio engineering demands.

I'm was also checking these speakers out for my Mac setup. Currently, I have the old iMac 17", which has no optical output... so according to the good folks here, this would be dissapointing. But I just checked on the Mac minis, and they are optical (input and output), so I think it's time for an upgrade! Looks like Apple are switching all their machines to have a combo mini optical/headphone port. A Good Thing.

I have this mic and would like to try that on my laptop. since it only has one plug (not two) - where exactly should I plug it in? I don't want to wreck it...What applications do you use it for? I really would like to see if it will work with dragon naturally speaking version 11.5

Me too. Looking for a FM transmitter for my 2nd Generation Shuffle. Wish we could get some answers here.

Comrade Trotsky: I just bought this device from Amazon last week - it's an M1001 (Roku doesn't sell the M1000's any more). It works flawlessly. My router [Linksys WRT300N using WPA2 (Personal)] and my SoundBridge are separated by ~ 50 ft., and transmission has to go through several walls. Nonetheless, my SoundBridge almost never cuts out - I would say maybe two or three times (or less) in an eight-hour period. Recovery is automatic, and takes perhaps two seconds. The M1001 now ships with v. 3.0 software, which add several features to the display, as well as realiability (or so I'm told). Tip: Don't use the "standard" music servers out there (Windows, iTunes, etc.). Get Jamcast from Software Development instead (www.sdstechnologies.com - it's free). Jamcast will let you play ANY music-file format on your SoundBridge (including DRM), plus, it allows you to stream Pandora to your SoundBridge - something no other music server can do! PS - When I mentioned drop-outs above, I was referring strictly to using the M1001 as an internet radio. Consequently, the drop-outs MIGHT be the fault of the internet-radio provider. For example, when using Jamcast to receive Pandora, my SoundBridge NEVER cuts out!

Will it be audible (assuming every instrument has a source of amplification)? Yes. Will it sound good and satisfy you? Probably not. In a band situation such as this, I do not recommend this product. You will probably want separate channels for each instrument and a few for the drums alone so that you can mix in a balanced manner. As this only has one input, you would need a microphone that could hear everything in a detailed and balanced way. Good luck finding a single mic that can do that. There are many better options than this for a band application. One that pops to mind (not the only option) is a live sound mixer with outputs to a CD recorder or something of the like.

The question should be directed to Audioengine. I only know that it performs well with my Nakamichi. Sorry I can't be of technical help.
