New Performance Tools in FREE Scratch Live 1.9 Update
The Serato Scratch Live 1.9 free upgrade places an array of features at a DJ’s fingertips. Major new features include SP-6 Sample Player, LiveFeed, native MEP-7000 support, Loop Roll, enhanced History and support for Video-SL 1.1
The new SP-6 Sample Player adds six extra audio players that can be triggered with the computer keyboard or a MIDI controller, turning compatible Rane hardware into a high-performance sampler.
Brand new in Scratch Live 1.9 is LiveFeed, which takes live external audio and places it directly on a Scratch Live virtual deck—all in real time. The DJ has instant control of live external audio with vinyl, CD or MIDI.
Loop Roll adds a new stutter effect, which can also be used in conjunction with the new LiveFeed feature.
The History function now keeps a comprehensive record of every track played, during every gig. That is a real time saver for professional DJs who need to log their sessions.
Album Art is also added to the virtual deck in Scratch Live, assisting with rapid song identification.
Scratch Live 1.9 also adds offline video playback, in conjunction with the Video-SL 1.1 plug-in. This feature lets Serato Video-SL users manage effects, cue and loop points for their videos without hardware connected.
Video-SL 1.1 adds support for the Rane SL 1 and Rane MP 4. MIDI support has been added for the Pioneer MEP-7000 as a Scratch Live control surface. Control CDs are not required, and song data is shown directly on the MEP-7000’s displays.
A public beta of Scratch Live 1.9 is available now.
