Windows

It is important that Windows users install

the SL4 drivers as well as the Scratch Live

software. The easiest way is to allow the

Scratch Live installer to do all the work.

1. Connect your SL4 before you insert

your installation CD. When you rst

connect, Windows will attempt to install

the drivers via the hardware wizard.

Cancel and close the hardware wizard.

2. Insert the Software Installation CD.

Make sure your SL4 is connected rst.

If a window doesn’t open automatically,

browse to the CD drive. Run setup.

exe. Or, 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 SL4 was connected prior to

installing Scratch Live, no extra hardware

installation is required.

Additional Windows ASIO Drivers

Once Scratch Live is installed, any

additional hardware that is connected

will be recognized and the drivers will be

automatically installed.

Rane Device Drivers

The Scratch Live installer includes drivers

that allow the SL4 to act as a 10-in 10-

out external USB sound card for use

with third-party software applications

supporting Core Audio (Mac) and ASIO

(PC). These drivers allow multiple

programs to share the SL4 at the same

time. The SL4’s inputs and outputs may

be selected in the audio settings of other

applications when Scratch Live is not

open. The SL4 has two independent USB

ports, allowing simultaneous connection

of two computers. You can run Scratch

Live using Serato drivers on one port

while running other ASIO or Core Audio

software on the other. Driver updates

are also available to download from the

product’s page at rane.com. See “USB

Drivers” In the manual.

Each Virtual Deck in Scratch Live has a

unique input / output source, which you

can change to suit your DJ setup.

Starting with two turntables or CD

players, select these as your “Primary

Decks.” In a multi-deck setup, this denes

the sources that you will play the majority

of your tracks

from. Select your

Primary Decks in the

Hardware tab of the

Setup screen. See

“Select Primary

Decks” in the

manual.

To set a USB

Source in Scratch Live, click the

dropdown box above the Virtual Deck.

Change your Display Mode to

Classic Vertical mode if you don’t

see the dropdown above the Deck. We

recommend learning Scratch Live with

just two Decks. See “Display Modes” In

the manual.

Start with the Left Deck, select

“Channel 1.” This Deck is now controlled

by the turntable / CD player plugged into

Input 1 on the SL4, and the audio from

Scratch Live will be sent to Output 1.

On the Right Deck select “Channel 2.”

This Deck is now controlled by the

turntable / CDJ plugged into Input 2 on

the SL4, and the audio from Scratch Live

will be sent to Output 2.

Changing the Display to 4-Deck

Stack Mode allows you to see

and assign all four Decks at once. Your

Primary Decks will have a white border

around them. Repeat the above steps for

the remaining two Decks.
