Griffin DJ Cable Splits Output Between Headphones and Speakers

Griffin’s DJ Cable is little more than a fancy splitter
Griffin’s DJ Cable lets you split the output from Algoriddim’s award-winning Djay app so that you can cue and mix like a real disk jockey. The y-shaped cable plugs into the headphone socket of your iPhone, iPad or Mac and sends the master and cue outputs down different wires. And unlike expensive USB sound devices to add a second output (to a Mac at least), it costs just $20.
A bargain, right? Well, not quite. The cable is little more than a splitter that takes the stereo output from the app and turns it into two mono signals. Given that the software to do this is built in to the app itself, you could use any old stereo to mono splitter to do the job.
Then again, Griffin gear is usually pretty well made (apart from its first-gen inline mic and remote adapter for the iPhone, of which I broke two within weeks), so it should last a little longer than generic splitters. The last thing you want when you’re in the middle of a set, even if it’s just in your bedroom, is to have a cable break on you.
Available now for $20. the Algoriddim Djay app is $10.
