opticon Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 I own the pioneer 350 set and i'm currently borrowing the CDJ 2000's and 900NXS. My mate I borrowed the gear off reckons that you shouldn't need a Rane SL to use any of it with Serato Scratch Live. I'm running a Windows 7 laptop so that 'may' be the issue if that's true.Can anyone say yes/no to needing a Rane SL for Serato? Quote
Mitch Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Serato Scratch is designed to be used with either their rane mixers, or the serato sound cards (sl1,2,3 and 4). So to use scratch i believe you'll need one of these.As far as serato itch, its only for approved midi controllers. Quote
wazza Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 mitch-fudd is right you need serato hardware to run scratch live....you plug the cdj 350, cdj 850, cdj 900 & the 2000 into your laptop by USB& you plug the Rane/serato hardware into the laptop by USB.... for the audio outputs ,you go output ( RCA ) from the Rane /serato outputs into your mixer...you dont use the RCA outputs from the cdj if you want to use serato Quote
Skank Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 there ay be a problem if you are trying to run each divice through usb intead of throught the actual sl soundcard Quote
Mitch Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 My understanding is that you can use pioneer cdjs that are supported for HID in serato like this (sorry for crap paint skills): Quote
Gandy Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 u need to connect your cdjs to your mixer as well Quote
Mitch Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Woops, that was a bit dumb on my part. But yer you get the idea Quote
lloydc Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 u need to connect your cdjs to your mixer as wellno you don't, not in hid mode... watch this. Quote

tommykesh Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 My understanding is that you can use pioneer cdjs that are supported for HID in serato like this (sorry for crap paint skills):Um no, you connect the CDJ's to the Serato Box, not the computer Quote
Mitch Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 tommykesh this is for hid mode via usb though, not standard timecode setup Quote
lloydc Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 tommykesh this is for hid mode via usb though, not standard timecode setup^thisDiagram is correct for HID mode *ONLY* Quote
