Connections
1.
Connect your turntables (or CD players
) to
INPUTS 1
and
2
of the Scratch LIVE
hardware.
2.
Connect the
LINE OUTPUTS
of the Scratch
LIVE hardware to the Line Inputs on
your DJ mixer, check that those inputs are
switched to line level.
3.
Connect the
USB
cable from the Scratch
LIVE hardware to your Mac or PC.
Optional extra connections
•
If you are using turntables, connect their
ground wires to the ground post of your
mixer.
•
Connect the
THRU OUTPUTS
of the
Scratch LIVE hardware to the mixer’s
phono inputs when using turntables; con-
nect these to the mixer’s line inputs when
using CD players. This allows you to bypass
Scratch LIVE to play normal records or
CDs.
•
Connect a dynamic microphone to the
MIC
INPUT
of the Scratch LIVE hardware to
scratch your own mic recordings as if they
are on vinyl.
•
Connect a ¼" to ¼" cable from the
MIC
THRU
jack on the Scratch LIVE hardware
to the microphone input on your DJ mixer
to allow normal use of the microphone,
independent of Scratch LIVE. (Note: power
is required, either from the USB port or an
external 9VDC power supply. See manual
for details.)
