i have 57sl but couldnt use serato box at club

znice 9:38 PM - 2 March, 2010
i shoulda known i prob need to download separate software/drivers to use a serato box but figured i would be fine having the software for the 57sl. (i went to play out and got errors so i had to save tracks to a thumbdrive and upload to a fellow djs computer)

can i download the software free to use a box located in the clubs?

help!

i ran into the same problem,but in reverse.i first bought an sl1 box and installed th software in my computer,not too long after i bought a ttm57sl.i downloaded the program,but for some reason now i cant scratch or anything.when i put a song on the right or left deck it just plays and i can take the serato cd out and it will keep on playing.its almost as though i cant use the mixer or the turntables the music is playing when i load it in all the modes.what am i doing wrong?what do i need to do?

On the back of the 57 theres some little switches that allow you to change the line/phone for each chanel. Were they set Appropriately? That might have been the problem.
