Thanks

Either a hardware synthesizer, something like a DECTalk, Doubletalk,
etc. or a second dedicated soundcard.
With the hardware synth, a used one with a serial to usb adapter will
do nicely usually and with a soundcard, any cheap cardfor US$20 or
less will do for speech output.

I am a Wedding DJ and compare and at the moment I use conventional
Pioneer DJ twin CD players and also a specialist Denon DJ HDC2500
hard drive controller. The Hard Drive Controller is just about
manageable as I know most of my music and in many cases I just have
to type a particular search string and I know it will find the track
I need, I can then quickly check that I am on the right track by
using headphones. Problem is I don't always know if I have the
track and also if I do have it it could be a fair way down a
specific folder.[you can only search the first path and then its
manual using a viewing window] i.e. Walk of Life would be a fair way
down the Dire Straits folder. I am able to search for the Dire
Straits folder but then there is no facility to do a search string
within that folder. This means that sometimes I have to rely on
someone being there to tell me what is displayed in the viewing window.
I want to try using a laptop to replay some tracks, at the moment
I'm not that bothered about using any specialist mixing software
although I understand that OTTS DJ is compatible with Jaws. For now
I would be quite happy being able to use a standard folder such as
My Music and playing directly out from there using Windows Media
Player or alike.
My mixer has multiple lines so I intend to keep my CD players and
the HDC and just use a laptop for when I need to do a search.
I need to know if it is possible to keep the JAWS output separate
away from the actual music output in order that JAWS is not heard
through the PA system.and if so how?
I wondered about a multi channel sound card such as a Gigaport or
even using the built-in sound card and also another basic sound card
as well, one for the music and the other for JAWS, my other concern
is could I get a high enough output from JAWS so it can be heard via
headphones in a noisy environment. I haven't bought the laptop yet
either so if there is a laptop out there that has the facility to do
this without any additional sound cards that would be interesting too.
Many thanks in advance for any help and advice
Andy
