Because the Sixty-Eight was connected prior
to installing Scratch Live, no extra hardware
installation is required.
NOTE: Select the custom install option to
change the installation location of Scratch Live.
ADDITIONAL WINDOWS DRIVERS
Vista & Windows 7 install the driver for all USB
ports at once. Windows XP treats each USB port
individually. You might like to install the Drivers
for the Sixty-Eight on all of your USB ports.
Connect your Sixty-Eight to a USB port.
Windows will again attempt to install the drivers
via the hardware wizard. Cancel and close the
hardware wizard.
With your hardware still connected, run the
Scratch Live driver updater. This is usually
located in:
C: > Program Files > Serato > driver_updater32.exe
or for Vista and 7 64-bit systems:
C: > Program Files (x86) > Serato > driver_
updater64.exe.
Repeat this process for each of your USB ports.
TIP: The driver updater can install drivers for
different types of Scratch Live hardware, not
just the Sixty-Eight. For example, if you play
at a club that uses a TTM 57SL mixer, just
connect the mixer and run through the driver
updater as above.
STARTING THE SOFTWARE
Close all other programs on your Mac or PC.
When you load Scratch Live for the first time,
you will see the screen shown above.
INSTALLING MORE THAN ONE VERSION
Installing a new version will by default overwrite
any previous version you had installed, however
it is easy to have more than one version of
Scratch Live installed if you wish.
Mac users
: before installing, find the Scratch Live
application (by default it is in the Applications
folder), and rename it - for example Scratch
Live 2.0.0. When you install the new version,
the old application will not be overwritten, and
you can choose which version you want to run
by going into the folder and double clicking
on the application. You can also do this if you
have already installed the latest version - just
rename the application (eg. to Scratch Live
2.1.1), and then reinstall the earlier version.
Windows Users
: before installing, find the
Scratch Live executable (by default it is in
C:\Program files\Serato\ScratchLIVE), and
rename it - for example Scratch Live 2.0.0.exe.
When you install the new version, the old
executable will not be overwritten, and you
can choose which version you want to run by
going into the folder and double-clicking the
executable. You can also do this if you have
already installed the latest version — just
rename the executable (eg. to Scratch Live
2.1.1.exe), and then reinstall the earlier version.
FIRMWARE CHECk
On occasion new firmware updates are
included within Scratch Live software updates.
After updating, run Scratch Live and click the
Hardware tab in the Setup screen to see if
new firmware is installable.
SEE “UPDATING
FIRMWARE” ON PAGE 38.
If you’re using the TTM 57SL and/or Sixty-
Eight mixers at various clubs, you may come
across one that has a newer version of firmware
installed. With the newer firmware, the mixer will
still be usable with older Scratch Live versions,
but certain features may not work as expected.
To avoid this situation, make sure you always
have the latest version of Scratch Live installed.
USING THE TOOL TIPS
Click on the
?
icon to enable tool tips. Tool tips
provide a handy way to learn the various features
of Scratch Live. Move the mouse over a section
of the screen to bring up a context-sensitive
tool tip. Holding the mouse over the
?
button
with tool tips turned on will show you a list of
all keyboard shortcuts. Tool tips are available in
several languages. Scratch Live will display the
tool tips in the language that your computer is
set to. If your language is not available, the tool
tips will be displayed in English.
