Respect The Clave
So here's the thing.
I'm trying to use the 'headphone' output(using patch cables) of my laptop to 'drive' my pair of JBL 3 Series powered speakers(they only have 1/4 line level and xlr input connectors). Of course, the volume is way too low and I know I have an 'impedance' mismatch, because the output volume into a set of headphones is great.
What I don't want to do is to 'go backwards', play and mix everything through headphones(again) and retire the powered speakers(into the closet). And since we're also on a budget I can't just throw benjamin's at it either and create a rack full of stuff since I work on an IKEA table.
We're going to start using the copy of Ableton Light we got for free when I recently bought the Focusrite Scarlette Solo unit.
There's probably a simple solution, but I haven't found it yet.
Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem and what was their solution?
Thanks in advance
