Could you use this thing to scratch in ableton? Because if so, I'd defnitely snag one.

[SCSystem]

As of now Ableton does not offer waveform control. They would need to implement that feature and also make it MIDI mapable.

[ProjectSmammi]

So you can essentially hook up a lot of the center touchpad stuff to any sorts of effects in software, right? Like, it's possible to hook it up to all sorts of vsts and software effects and the like?

[SCSystem]

Yes,

You can use the controller as an effects trigger be they VST or built in effects as long as the program allows Midi mapping to that area of the program.

do u need to have a mixer? or can it just be set up to the laptop. and also do you need 2 of them

[SCSystem]

In some cases, you can use one or two 3ds without a mixer and mix using the "upfaders" (the gain controls). Some people won't like working like this, though, so a mixer would be good in that case. It all depends on your style of mixing.

richard devine is such a pimp.

[PegasusRPG]

Get a USB hub, dude. Plug that into your laptop, then your devices into that.

[AKanyon]

y u no ... sorry, i would love to have more lights on it, like, Launchpad is totally spoiled me, now i need more lights on devices...

Personally this is crap, I'd rather have the feeling of actually using Actual turntable and feel the record playing

@nem0nic Thanks! The setup is simpler than I thought. So basically:  Scs3d to Laptop to USB Audio interface to Headphones + Speakers But how does one switch between the headphones for previews and the master with the audio interface? (i.e how does it work?) Thanks again!

[nem0nic]

@BassSeekr Any off the shelf USB audio interface with 2 stereo outputs should be good to go. Behringer has a couple cheap interfaces that will do the trick for next to nothing. Native instruments also has the Audio DJ 2 interface, which is solid and east to carry.

I've decided to dj as a hobby. I looked into this product all day and it just fascinated me! It came in the mail just yesterday. I played around with it in Mixxx and it was really enjoyable. I plan to take this hobby one step further and get a better DJ program, like Traktor Duo. But, seeing as the Stanton scs3d has a USB interface, what hardware and how would I connect this unit so that I may preview a mix, sample, etc through my headphones without putting it through the master? Thanks.

[75tim192l4]

i have 1 question with the mixer, and 2 vinyl/cdj things work just like a normal set of decks? like exacly the same?

thanks very much

you can get external USB hubs that allow you to have more than 2 USB ports. Or if you went with the Stanton SCS.3M Mixer, it uses 1 USB port while providing 4 others, acting as a small hub of sorts.
