RANE SIXTY-ONE FOR SERATO SCRATCH LIVE • QUICK START 2.4

SIXTY-ONE QUICK START

INSTALL

SCRATCH LIVE

WELCOME

Before using your Sixty-One, at least read

this short booklet for the basics, even if you

are already familiar with Scratch Live. Read the

complete manual to get the best investment

from your new Sixty-One.

Before installing, visit serato.com to be sure you

have the latest Scratch Live software update.

Check here for known compatibility issues with

certain computers or operating systems. Check

back regularly for updates, advice and tips. If

you are new to installing software, read this

section rst.

1. At serato.com, click DOWNLOADS. Then

click SCRATCH LIVE.

2. See if the version online is higher than the

disc you have.

a. If it is the same, proceed to the Mac or

Windows installation in this Quick Start.

b. If it is higher, click the download link.

Launch the installer you just downloaded

from serato.com.

3. Follow the on-screen instructions. Once the

installation is complete, Scratch Live appears

in the Start Menu under All Programs > Serato

> Scratch Live.

Because the Sixty-One was connected prior

to installing Scratch Live, no extra hardware

installation is required.

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-One on all of your USB ports.

Connect your Sixty-One 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 Win7 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-One. 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.

3. Do you want to open or save this ﬁle? Click

Save, and navigate to an easy place to nd it,

such as your desktop. When using Windows

Explorer, click Browse Folders in the lower

left corner and select Desktop.

4. When the download is complete, click Open.

a. For Mac, just double click the Scratch Live

Installer and it will install.

b. For Windows XP, opening this downloaded

le (double-clicking) should uncompress it.

A dialog will ask where you want the les:

choose Desktop. Note: if nothing happens

when you double-click the downloaded

le, you will need to install an unzip utility

to uncompress the le. Type “unzip” into a

search engine for several options.

MAC INSTALLATION

Insert the Software Installation CD and double-

click the installer icon. Mac users need only

connect the one of the Sixty-One mixer’s USB

ports after installing the software. No extra

hardware installation is required.

WINDOWS INSTALLATION

It is important that Windows users install the

Sixty-One drivers as well as the Scratch Live

software. The easiest way to do this is to allow

the Scratch Live installer to do all the work.

1. Connect your Sixty-One’s USB to your

computer before you insert your installation

CD. When you rst connect it, Windows will

attempt to install the drivers via the hardware

wizard. Cancel and close the hardware wizard.

2. Insert the Software Installation CD-ROM.

Make sure your Sixty-One is connected rst. If

a window doesn’t open automatically, browse

to the CD drive. Run setup.exe.
