Mixing With One Deck using Serato Scratch Live's Input Reverse Function

[DJZobe]

just got to play with sl4 today, they took out the reverse input toggle button at the top...it's just a shortcut command now i believe, ctrl- shift- / for mac...not sure bout for pc...

@DJZobe - That is a bind. At least the shortcur key is still there, but there is nothing like a "switch" to flick!

[JoeSchmoe131]

There's an easier way of switching decks without doubling.. Set one side to "absolute" or "relative" (let's say left side) and the other to "internal" on Serato(right). Load a song on side with the table(left) and start playing. While it's playing, click on the left/right crossover button at the top of Serato. This switches the left side of Serato to "internal" and the right side to "absolute" or "relative" as you had it set before. Your table will be now available for use as the "right" side.

@JoeSchmoe131: Thanks JoeSchmoe, that is another very valid method.

It is good that this thread has shown that there are at least three ways of mixing with only one deck should one go down when you are playing out, if you don't like the method I have shown.

your not proud of that mixer. I can tell.

[dibley1973]

@hueysweeney:

My word, does it show? Tee-hee!

I now have a Behringer DDM400. A (very) budget mixer, but loads of functions.

or just drag the other track into the right deck 

[FieserBauer]

yeah a good pissibility to get even more whack... why not buying traktor and sync your tracks without turntables...

next step: we got "ready to play" partymixes in da club... BUT WHERE IS THE DJ???

;) not against you mate! its cool to see so many music lovers :)

DEF effect... you beat me to the question lol it IS much easier what he doing is way harder and time consuming lol

[theDEFeffect]

isnt easier to just use the instant doubles mode?

[dibley1973]

As per my reply to "armanix510", below...

[prasiatenko]

Hi! Nice vid. I have one question. Can you do this using midi, like one cdj 400?

[dibley1973]

I have no idea, sorry! :o)

Can any one else help?

[Maxsdiscos]

Yes, basic MIDI is guaranteed to work.

Not sure about native though (full mapping), some controllers are, and some aren't.

It varies between software and hardware devices.

@prasiatenko i am 86 % sure u can

[LifeOfDubstep]

@prasiatenko im 100% sure you can because iv done it. you can also do it in traktor by starting one song on the deck, then grag the same track into deck 2 and they will be exactly the same

[watsgoodawg]

Thanks man!

[dibley1973]

I'm glad this has been of use to you. :o)

[minnesotadj1]

Now I am able to to that with ease! Thanks for posting this!

[armanix510]

instant doubles is a lot easier, dragging it over to the right deck so you stay on the left the whole time.

[dibley1973]

That is probably a fair comment. but it is always nice to have more than one solution to a problem.
