Some great videos here guys, take time to check them out!
From Konix:
The first one I have done is instant doubles. After reading this and several other forums, I've found many people don't know how to use 1 turntable with SSL or the instant doubles feature, or let alone even know it exists or what it does. So, here it is broken down...

Hi all, I am in the process of making several video tutorials and how tos with ScratchLIVE, and also "help" videos to some of the most "common" SSL problems (i.e. "noob" RTFM problems) to save me the time of having to repeat the same thing over and over every week in the Help forum.The first one I have done is instant doubles.

How to record your mix (this gets asked pretty much daily in the Help forums)www.youtube.com view
DJ G-NUTZ
4:32 AM 10 December 2008
Hey Konix I use the serato program to record my live mixes. I use a rca cable with the earphone plug at the end. The rca part goes into the ttm56 mixer master output then the earphone pluggin part to the interface mic input. Then I use rca cable form mixer aux output to amp input to hear what im mixing.
In the serato software change record option to mic. just make sure your mic gain is a zero on the interface. The mixes never sound like ish either. I just do a lil editing with another program like normalizing, hiss reduce, convert to mp3 etc..

Konix
11:57 PM 26 December 2008
Yes, just rename your ScratchLIVE folder in your Music folder on the internal drive to something like "ScratchLIVE_old" and this wil prevent SSL from loading all your crates from the internal drive's songs. Start SSL with your external plugged in and if you did everything correctly it will only load the crates with the songs from the external drive. Try loading a few songs up, if they load, you're good.

Since everyone wants to try 1.9 but doesn't want to get rid of 1.8, a lot of people have been asking about running multiple versions of SSL on their computer. I wanted to make a video to show someone, but I figured I'd ask the Serato Tutor first. The instructions are posted by the Serato team in the beta, but I don't think everyone understands.
Personally, on Windows I modify my desktop shortcut to point to the C:\Program Files\Serato\ScratchLIVE folder and rename the .exe files in there. On Mac, I just put the .app files on my desktop with the version numbers.

Hey Konix,
might be a good idea to make a video on how to utilize the new set/play list export?
Ie:
how to export them (txt,csv,m3u), how to use them in a spread sheet, how to import a m3u playlist to a media player (iTunes, Media Monkey etc) for syncing your set list to an mp3 player.
I guess you've covered some of it already.
Its fairly obvious, but some might have missed this great new feature.

Hey Konix or anyone else for that matter.
I followed your tutorial on how to backup all tracks, crates, etc on an external but it doesn't exactly work for me. I think the reason is because of the way make my crates:
I use itunes to import all of my music. I make a playlist in itunes (which then shows up in SL). I then open up SL and make a SL crate. After that I highlight and drag all songs from the itunes playlist into the SL crate. Once all my songs are in there I can then make subcrates, etc...I then go into itunes and delte the original playlist that I created. So in the end I have a bunch of SL crates, no itunes playlists even though everything is reading through itunes.
Now when I plug in my external to another computer/or same computer, all of my crates and everything show up, but all my music has the pink question mark showing there are no files found. Any thoughts?

corrupt database. rename it to something else.then reload serato and let it read all your tags.and all your files will show up correct.
depending how many files you have it might take a little while.
hope this helps.

The pink question mark means that specific file can't be found. If it can't find the song, first figure out where you are looking (use the location field). Then figure out where your file is. There's more to it, but once you understand the foundation of how it works and what the error messages mean, you can work your way to a solution. Just relate it to real world stuff... like records. Basically, you have a bunch of empty record sleeves and no vinyl. Find your vinyl.

Right click the file (in iTunes), select "Get Info," go to the artwork tab, and if you see multiple pics, click and highlight and delete the ones you don't want. Then the correct one should show in SSL.

You could try going into your _scratchlive folder and renaming the "database" file into "database_old" and let serato load up every track again.

To run 2 (or more) versions of SSL, rename the current one on your computer (add 1.8.3 or something) then when downloading the new one it will not replace the current one.
if you want more than 2, just keep changing the names.

go into SSL settings, make sure read iTunes libary is not checked. if not all of your songs appear, open the folder where your songs are located, and drag them to your all folder. this should not cause duplicates (as far as i'm aware, or have experienced)

Mr.Konix, i appreciate you posting this video. I'm still a lil lost cause i use itunes within SSL for my songs. When i open up the music folder on my mac i only see an itunes folder and a scratchlive folder. It appears that all of my songs are in itunes. so my question is how do i move the songs over to an external to mimick my created ssl crates when all of the songs are stored in itunes. I'm starting to get very nervous that i could lose all of my music if something goes wrong with my internal hd or the laptop itself. I woke up in the middle of the night sweating and hyperventilating from a bad nightmare that i lost all of my music. I sincerely appreciate any help on this matter.

Konix, does your last vid apply to cdjs also? Also just want to dsay thanks for your help with the vids over the years. Great Job.
Konix
7:05 PM 4 August 2009
Yes you still need to calibrate with CDJs, but instead of putting the needle on the record you just pause the CD.
Konix
7:07 PM 4 August 2009
However I will say calibration is probably not as important (but still important enough) with CDJs as it is with turntables, due to the nature of CD players being all digital and turntables being analog. You don't have to worry about needles/vibrations/ground wires, etc.
djbabyboy

Thanks, the reason i ask is because i have played both ways and can't tell the different, but for now on out i will calibrate.

Konix - I just got into the MAC world. I seen your vid on moving crates/songs/ect from a PC to an external drive. I would rather keep it there for mobility purposes anyway, but do you have a vid on connecting my new MAC to the external drive with PC data and using my old crates/songs/stuff?
Thanks dude! Your real life solutions are great. I know youve answered my questions for so many people.

If all your crates are already on the external drive, then you don't have to do anything...maybe. If the drive is formatted Windows NTFS, then you won't be able to save/change/edit/delete/modify anything on the ext drive when connected to the Mac, as Macs cannot write* to NTFS drives, only read. If the ext drive is FAT32, then it's ready to go on the Mac and you don't have to do anything.
*It's possible for Macs to write to NTFS drives via third party programs/drives like MacFUSE and NTFS-3G, but I really don't recommend these.

Konix, I have a new mac and watched your video on moving songs to an external, works great btw. On the Internal HD, everytime I save the ScratchLIVE folder to ScratchLIVE_old, the mac will create a new ScratchLIVE folder? Does this make sense? It does the same thing if I delete it, makes a new one? On my external drive, my folder is named _ScratchLIVE_ just as you described in your video. Got any suggestions? I dont have the latest Leopard OS just FYI. Thanks.

your mac is reading both External and Internal drives. Try unpluggin the usb from the external drive, then open up SSL again and you should see only your internal files.
I think that's what your asking? (no expert)

So I just upgraded my mac to SNOW LEOPARD Everything seemed to be working the same until i added new music to my HD and then I hit my scratch tools command short cut to sync my HD folders with my serato crates and all the sudden I have duplicate songs (not crates ) but songs in my entire library.... what happened ?

I dont have the latest Leopard OS just FYI. Thanks.That is normal. There always has to be a ScratchLIVE folder in your Music folder. This is the "main" one SSL uses to store most of it's stuff, like the history, crash log, overview builder log, MIDI settings, recorded sets, Whitelabel files, etc. These aren't stored in the external drive _ScratchLIVE_ folders. So if you delete the ScratchLIVE folder in the Music folder, SSL will just make a new one on next load.
The purpose of renaming/deleting it is just to prevent SSL from loading the crates/subcrates from the Internal drive.

Yes you still need to calibrate with CDJs, but instead of putting the needle on the record you just pause the CD.I tried to calibrate with my CDJ 800's today and I did exactly what the video said except when Konix put the needle on the record I pushed pause on my CDJ...
Step 1: Play a track in internal mode at volume which will be used (club volume)
Step 2: Click setup put my CDJ's on pause
Step 3: Click the estimate button
Now when I click or hold the estimate button while the CDJ is paused the bar moves all the way to the left -72db.. If I click the or hold the estimate button down while the CDJ is playing.. it movies the bar all the way to the right -24db
when the CDJ is paused the top right corner doesnt bounce around and stays at 0.0 and the bottom right corner says 0%..
when the CDJ is playing it shows the pitch % at which the CDJ is at and it shows 100%.
but i dont understand why it goes to -24db when playing or -72db when paused?
shouldn't it be in the middle as per Konix's video?
www.youtube.com view
thx
Konix
1:50 PM 15 October 2009
With CDJs it's a little different. Calibrating isn't as important (but still important enough) with CDJs as it is with turntables, since CDJs are digital and don't have a lot the "analogue" problems associated with turntables that cause a lot of the noise issues (ground wires, needles, vibration, etc.). If you're getting -72dB with CDJs, then great. As long as you don't get any "ghost" movements on the virtual decks and/or digital grumbling when the player is stopped, then you're good.
DJ Infiniti
4:04 AM 21 October 2009
hey Konix.. i get ghost movements when my setting is at -72db which is what it calibrates at when my cdjs are paused and the volume is turned up on internal mode.. i tried doing it manually and possibly putting it in the middle around 47db.. but the only time i dont get ghost movements is when its -24db..
just so we're talking about the same thing.. ghost movement refers to the waveform moving slightly even when the cdj is paused?
i have SL3

I have my LPD8 mapped through the Scratchlive midi tab (pre 2.0, but same as you would assign any midi function in Scratchlive) but this does not allow "scene" changes through the controller itself. I have been doing that by using saved midi modes inside the scratchlive setup area (setup, midi, create mode then save). Only problem is then when you want to change midi modes you need to touch your laptop.
I will be having a go on 2.0 beta tonight so i will know more soon.

@ Konix -
Just played around with the Live Playlist thing as show in Part 3, seemed to work just like in the video, information was sent BUT I can't see where it went, I guess it is supposed to be attached to my Profile, but I don't see a option to enable it.
Is the website not enabled yet to post and view the Live Playlist thing yet. Didn't really do a detailed search but saw a hint saying that in the 2.0 Public Beta section.
Seems like a cool idea, if somebody could make a Twitter or Facebook Plug-in that would grab and re-post that info, it would be a great "live from the club" promotion tool. It would crush the hoopla over the Twitter - Native Instruments Richie Hawtin thing from a while back.

also, do the images embed in to the file, or do they need to be saved to a folder if you transport the library around?

peace of advice for people, if you pull art work from discog click on the record and then drag that picture, not the one that first comes up, actually clicking on the record and dragging and dropping that one give's you a clearer album cover.

That's intentional. The video is about the X1, not the effects. If I had the music louder, than you wouldn't be able to hear me, or I'd have to practically yell. Plus, it's not a direct feed of the audio, I basically just turned my headphones up and recorded it along with my voice through my built in mic.
When I do my FX videos, I will use direct audio feeds and will make sure it's nice and clear for y'all.

Can you help me solve this problem. I tried dragging the crate from the external into the scratchLIVE folder on the internal, but it did not work.
Any suggestions?

I have A noob question that i am sure I saw somewhere in your videos Can you post the link for the video on you to make a universal column for all crates. For examople. If i click on all music and I set up my columns with song, artist, bpm album etc and I click on another crate these settings are different and I have to set up the columns for each crate. Im sure there is a right click or command click to fix this and keep all crates under a universal order system
thanks

That's what the custom crates column option does in the setup menu, don't check that option and all your crates should have the same column order/format.

In your video you mentioned that "relative encoder" for the knob. Can you explain the differences? I guess knobs, buttons and sliders are all different?

Great work as always with the videos Konix!
How about sheding some light about the "advanced" file functions in 2.0 ?
I've tried it with some ALAC files, and found that my genre tags were erased/reverted to older version after moving. This while moving files between different locations on internal drive.

Hi Konix, first of all, thank you for all the videos you did!
I just got me an Traktor Kontrol x1, then I watched your videos and still had a hard time to map that thing, like I want it....but I made it.
Anyway, I've got one more question: how do I assign pitch bend to a button? Because all I know is the letter on the keyboard that does the job, but I don't see any button on the screen like other functions I assign to knobs and buttons on my controller.

You have to switch to Internal mode to see the pitch bend buttons, they are the + and - buttons under the pitch slider (they used to be the << and >> buttons prior to 1.9). Map them in Internal mode, then you can use them in Relative mode.

Now I could use a midi to do this but really would like to do it with the 57..... I don't think it's in the list. but just asking in case I am missing something...

Konix,
Thanks for the great videos. I have a few questions on Scratch Live. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm trying to MIDI Map the DN-S3700 and I've ran into problems.
Is it true that you cannot...
* Cannot Clear a Cue Point in MIDI (I don't know what the guys in New Zealand were thinking)
* Cannot assign 1 button to divide or multiply a loop (It has to be a knob)
* Cannot MIDI assign any button to expand/extract the Crates (This is essential for file browsing)
* Cannot MIDI assign any button to Instant Double the 3rd and 4th deck (You can only do this with a mouse)
* Cannot MIDI assign any button to Instant Double to or from the Sampler (Again, by mouse only)

I'm pretty sure all of those are true except for expanding/collapsing crates, that's what the "Left" and "Right" buttons do in the library MIDI assign area (in addition to scrolling left/right in the tracklist area). "Right" expands the crate structure, "Left" collapses the crates.
J.J.
5:26 PM 25 August 2010
Thank you. I will try it out. Like native support on my DN-HC4500, I wish you could assign 1 BACK button to switch to the crate view, and expand/collapse while in a Crate. Another push button to switch to the track view, and load to a deck while in the Track View.
I know you can use a button to SHIFT in the xml. Hold 1 MIDI button down and you can assign all the other buttons to do another command. But can you assign 1 button to do a layer SHIFT, so you don't have to hold that button down?

Konix, I've MIDI mapped the Left and Right buttons but they don't work. I've even tried holding down ALT+Click and it lets me assign it. However, unlike Ctrl+Left Arrow on the keyboard, it still doesn't let me expand/collapse the crates.

Thank you for the support Konix. Samuel from Serato Support responded to my help.
"Can you disable Video-SL in the plug-ins section of the setup screen? It looks like if you have this enabled it tries to do a video crossfade."
I disabled the Video-SL in the plug-ins section and the 'Left' (collapse) and 'Right' (expand) now work.
However, I do use video. Is there any way to have it expand/collapse the crates versus a video crossfade? My Sixty-Eight crossfader is already tide to the video crossfade.
Is there any way to design a MIDI command to do the exact same thing as the BACK button on the Sixty-Eight mixer or even the DN-HC4500 19" controller? The way it works on both of them is the BACK button goes from tracks to crates. While in the crates, the BACK button now expands/collapses the crates. Another button switches focus from the crates to the tracks and while in the tracks, it loads the song.

Are you having any problems with the sync program Jensen? It doesn't matter where the folder is that contains your music, it can be anywhere. As for the ScratchLIVE and ScratchLIVEBackup folders, the Backup folder is just that, a backup copy of the ScratchLIVE folder. Scratch Live makes this folder on exit once a week, so in case you accidentally delete a crate, or anything bad happens to your SSL database, you have a recent backup to fall back to.

It's just every time I use it, it adds 3 crates to my SSL, that are unnecessary:
scratchlive, scratchlive backup and ... all I do is deleting them and I'm good to go.
But, I think I'm doing something wrong and I want to avoid tha extra step of creating and deleting those crates.

Well, it will make a crate for every folder in the main parent folder you specify. If you're syncing your main My Music folder, which contains the ScratchLIVE and ScratchLIVEBackup folders, then it's going to make a crate for those folders.
Maybe you can make a suggestion to the author of the program to make it so if you specify your My Music folder it excludes the ScratchLIVE/Backup folders as crates...serato.com

Hey Konix,I did just buy a new Mac and I am new to the Mac world...I'm wondering if you have a Video on how to transfer fro PC to Mac. I use Itunes for all my Music and obviously I need to transfer all crates and such. Btw I'm using 2.2 now if that matters and my Mac is a new 2010 MBP.
Thanks!
Konix made some vids about transferring.

if you play on two decks only, then wouldn't it be easier to do the follwing:
the two turntables go into channel 1 and 2 inputs.
channel 1 and 2 outputs go back into channel 3 and 4 inputs of the same SL-4 box
channel 3 and 4 outputs then go into the mixer.
DJ A selects decks 1 and 2 as primary.
DJ B selects decks 3 and 4 as primary.
now DJ B sets both his decks to "thru"
now DJ a can play.
to switch, DJ A switches a deck to "thru" in his scratchlive,
then dj B turns his thru off and he can play on that deck.
and when they both switch to "thru", they can play vinyl.
advantage: just one (MIDI MAPPABLE!!) button per DJ instead of a (NOT MIDI MAPPABLE!) drop-down menu.

well i see now - what i just proposed is more for "back to back" playing than for a dj - switch / takeover.

Great new tool/program to sync folders to crates/subcrates in Scratch Live or Itchwww.youtube.com view www.youtube.com view
This one's a bit interesting. Most of you are probably already familiar with nik's Scratch Tools program. This new program is similar to Scratch Tools, but only does one thing...sync folders to crates/subcrates. But this program is, no offense nik, not nearly as difficult/confusing as Scratch Tools.
You probably haven't seen the original thread as it was posted in the Itch forum, but for those that want to read more... serato.com
Konix i have a few questions about this program before i try it and screw evrything up.lol
1) It is supposed to mirror my hard drive, but what if i already have subcrates in scratchlive?
2) Do i need to make my subcrates in my hard drive?
3) Will it work with video files?
4) With video i have to edit all my video id3 tags within scratchlive, will it keep all the work ive done already or will i have to do it all over?

^If you don't have subfolders in your music library on your hard drive and you'll run this programm, then it will syncronize your one and only folder where you store all your music in with your crate in SSL.
The program does sync folders and crates you have on your hard drive and in SSL. If you have a crate xy in SSL but this is not a folder in your music library, the program won't touch it and it will be still in your SSL after running this program.

Hey Konix...... I know you have something similar to what i'm about to ask for but i think it can be useful because i just had to do it and it was not hard but it did take a lil experimentation.
Can you make a video for folks that need to combine two _SERATO_ folders into one.
EX... if you have music in both internal and external and you want to move all into one ( all to external or all to internal).

De-select then re-select FX1 & FX2 from each channel and it should start working again. At least that's what I did & it worked. I guess it's a bug.

jup, it is a bug
for the beat multiplier. you can use a midi controller, that works. only GUI clicking does not.

any idea what caused the FX to not work? Did you just happen to come accross that?
Konix
9:07 PM 5 January 2012
I'm no programer, but it just seems to be a GUI bug at its core. The FX clearly do work, however, something in the code isn't registering the deck 1/deck 2 buttons as being active until deselected and reselected, or you deselect/reselect the FX plugin in the setup menu.
But, Serato already confirmed this fixed for the next version.
