RANE SL4 FOR SERATO SCRATCH LIVE • OPERATOR’S MANUAL 2.5.0

Two

Computer

Connection

The SL4 allows two computers running

Scratch Live to connect to the mixer

simultaneously. This allows two DJs to

play at the same time and for easy DJ

handover.

Connect both computers to the two

USB ports on the SL4. In Scratch Live on

each computer, select a USB Source for

each Virtual Deck. For any Virtual Decks

on either computer that aren’t to be used,

set the USB Source to None.

NOTE: If you can’t select a particular

USB source for a Deck, make sure it is

not already set on another computer or

Virtual Deck.

Each USB Source can only be set to one

Virtual Deck on one computer at a time.

When two computers are connected, you

can use up to four USB sources in total.

DJ Handover

Swapping between two DJs both using

Scratch Live is easier than ever! With a

computer already connected to the SL4

and playing, do the following:

1. Connect the second computer to the

unused USB port on the SL4.

2 a. Using four control sources:

Select a USB Source for a Virtual Deck

that is not already being used on the

rst computer. If the rst DJ is using all

four USB sources, politely ask them to

free up at least one channel for you to

take over. See “USB Sources & Analog

Inputs” on page 13.

2 b. Using two control sources:

Unassign the USB Source for the

non-playing Virtual Deck on Computer

A. Then have Computer B assign that

same USB Source to one of its Virtual

Decks. See “USB Sources & Analog

Inputs” on page 13.

3. Play a track on this Deck and mix it in

when ready—you’ll now have audio from

both computers in the mix.

4. Fade out the audio playing from the rst

computer to the audio playing from the

second computer.

5. When only audio from the second

computer is left in the mix, remove the

rst computer.

6. Assign USB sources for the remaining

Virtual Decks on the second computer

and continue DJing.
