TIP: Use the keyboard shortcut CTRL + E to edit
text. Hold down the ctrl key and move with the
arrow keys to change to a different field while
staying in edit mode. When you have more
than one track selected, editing tags changes
all the tracks in your selection.
TIP: The second column in the library is the
label color for that track. Click it to bring up a
color palette, and customize the virtual deck
for that track.
NOTE: Tracks that are read-only have a locked
icon.
ALBUM ART
MP3 files can contain album art. To display this
album art, click the SHOW ALBUM ART button.
There are many third party applications available
for adding album art to MP3s.
LIBRARY AUTO-BACKUP
ITCH will a create folder on your hard disk called
Serato where it stores your library database,
crate information and other information it needs.
The Serato folder is located in the My Music
folder on Windows and in the Music folder on
Mac.
ITCH will also create a Serato folder on any
external drive that you have added files from into
the library.
When you first exit ITCH you will be prompted
to backup your library. This creates a copy of the
Serato folder on your system drive and on any
connected external drives containing a Serato
folder. The backup folder is called SeratoBackup.
After the initial backup, you will be prompted to
backup again if the last backup on that drive is
older than a week or if no backup exists. ITCH
will only keep ONE backup at a time, so each
time you backup ITCH will overwrite the previous
backup.
NOTE: If you have a previous version of ITCH or
Scratch Live installed the library folder will be
called ScratchLIVE not Serato.
LIBRARY MANAGEMENT
RESCAN ID3 TAGS
The Rescan ID3 tags button is found in the Files
panel and re-reads file tags for the entire library.
Use this function if you have edited or modified
file tags in other software.
TIP : Rescanning the tags is a handy way
to identify any files that can’t be found, for
example, if the files have been re-named or
moved. These tracks are then shown as red in
the library pane, with a question mark icon in
the status column.
RELOCATE LOST FILES
The Relocate Lost Files button is located in the
file panel. If you’ve moved the location of files
which are already in your library, they will show
up as not found and be displayed in red. Drag
and drop a folder from Finder (Mac) or Explorer
(Windows) onto the relocate lost files button to
search it, and any sub-folders, for files currently
marked as not found in your library. Doing this
will update the database with their new location.
NOTE: Clicking the relocate lost files button
will search all attached drives for missing files
and can take some time.
SCRATCH LIVE COMPATIBILITY
ITCH uses the same library as Serato Scratch
Live. If you are an existing Scratch Live user
all your music, loops and cue points will be
available in ITCH. If you create a library in ITCH
and then install Scratch Live the music loops and
cues from ITCH will automatically be available
in Scratch Live. Any changes made in either
program will be written to the library so if you
have existing cue and loop points, be aware of
this when moving between systems
14. History
Pressing the HISTORY button on the Denon
DJ DN-HC5000 opens History panel. This is a
complete log of all the tracks you have played
(in sessions) and allows you to export your ITCH
session information as a data file. Each session
is catalogued by date and time. Using the drop
down arrow, you can navigate to and view
detailed information of any previous sessions.
There are columns for the period (i.e., date of
session), name of track and artist name.
In addition, these other categories listed below
will give you more detailed information about
your sessions:
Start Time -
When viewing a track row, the start
time of the track is displayed. When viewing
a session row, the start time of the session is
displayed with the date (in real time value).
End Time -
When viewing a track row, the end
time of the track is displayed. When viewing
a session row, the end time of the session is
displayed with the date (in real time value).
Playtime -
When viewing a track row, the
total played time of the track is displayed (i.e.,
00:03:00). When viewing a session row, the total
elapsed time of the session is displayed with
date (i.e., 10/09/08 01:38:16).
Deck -
The virtual deck the track was played on
will be displayed under the deck column. In the
track row, either left or right is displayed. The
offline player will be listed as offline.
Notes - Use this field to list particular information
about your tracks and each session (i.e.,note
how you transitioned from one track to another).
Start Session / End Session - To start or end a
session, click the corresponding button. Insert
Track - If you wish to add information for tracks
not played in ITCH intoyour session (e.g., if you
played one of your favorite vinyl or cd), select the
track you want to insert after and click the insert
track button. Double click the inserted track fields
and edit your information accordingly. (Note that
when exporting an m3u playlist [see exporting
below] “inserted tracks” will not be present.)
Export - You can export each session as a data
file using the export button. Select a session,
then choose your preferred file format, and click
export. There are three possible export formats:
• text - to create a simple text file with your
session information contained within.
• csv - to create a file for use in spreadsheet
software.
• m3u - to create a playlist file, which can be
imported into media players. Note that an m3u
does not contain audio itself, it only points to the
location of your audio files. (Inserted tracks within
sessions will not be included in an m3u playlist.)
TIP: To make a new ITCH crate containing
your session information, select a session and
drag it to the + plus crate button. (This will
automatically name the crate with the session
date).
