Setting up your turntables and mixer
1. Set the tone arms to the specific recommendations of the cartridge used, such that the needle never
leaves the record, but not heavy enough that it heats up significantly. Both produce poor tracking.
2. If the track plays backwards, you have connected the inputs from your turntables the wrong way
around. Left=white, Right=red.
3. Grounding is extremely important when using Scratch
LIVE. Make sure you have good connections
from the ground wires of your turntables to the grounding post of your DJ mixer. All DJ mixers with
turntable inputs have built in grounding points for this purpose. If you do not ground your turntables
properly, the control signal will be noisy and the tracking of the record position will be erratic.
Tip: We recommend Shure M44-7 needles for use with Scratch
LIVE, due to their high output volume,
excellent tracking and low record wear.
Setting up your CD players
Your CD players do not need any adjustment. Connect the output of your CD players to Inputs 1
and 2 of the Scratch
LIVE hardware, and set the Input to Line Level in the Scratch LIVE setup.
