  Scratch Live 2.0 Features for the Sixty-Eight

  • Support for two DJs at once.

  DJ handover is easy with two USB ports. Easily switch between two laptops without interrupting the music. e.g., DJ A can be playing out channels 1 and 2, and then hand off those channels one at a time to DJ B.

  Two DJs can perform in parallel on the same mixer: Two DJs connect, configure which channels they output in software, and then DJ side by-side off the same mixer. eg., DJ A can play out channels 1 and 2, and DJ B can play out channels 3 and 4 at the same time.

  • Control of Scratch Live from the hardware control strips.

  A plug-and-play preset is included which performs standard functions (Library Navigation, Cues, Loops).

  Customizable presets for advanced users who will be able to switch groups, so the control strips become open-assignable like a MIDI controller, allowing custom functions and mapping.

  • Record your separate PGM inputs, FlexFX USB Send, Aux Inputs or Main Mix: all possible record sources.

  • SP-6 Sample player output assign to mixer channels.

  Additional output options are added to the SP-6 Sample Player, allowing a user to choose channels 1-4 or the FlexFX Return as the output. This allows three decks coming out of channels 1-3 and having the SP-6 coming out of channel 4.

  • Control and insertion of Software FX using the FlexFX USB Insert.

  • Record your mix to disk with pre-fader audio and fader automation recorded.

  This option allows a user to record not only audio, but fader automation. This can then be imported into a DAW for editing.

  Ableton Bridge support with the first release, with more to be added later.
