Hello,

1. There is no description on how to use the Mic in the manual? How can I use the Mic?

2. Is there away to change channel inputs? I prefer to use channel 1 (on 1) and channel 2 (on 4) (and of course 3- on 2 and 4 on 3). How can I achieve this.
3. Am I able to only view channels 1 & 2 (2 decks). I'm not 4 deck kinda user. I prefer my setup clean and simple.

Thanks,

Urban Kris

If you are using ITCH the answer I believe is NO. Now, in other software like Traktor, the answer is yes. Hopefully the Serato team make this available as a future feature in the setup menu.

to use the mic, make sure the channel switch at the back on the mixer is set to mic.

then set channel 4 to "thru" (shift + cue on channel 4) this should get the mic to work

as for question 2, there is another thread asking for this, i think it is added to feature requests but not sure how long till it happens.

Can you only use channel 4 for the Mic? Why does it have to go through a channel and can't be routed to the main outs with the front volume control like on the 4D.

Hi Urban_Kris.

This was the way it was designed, I guess it was simpler that it was done like this (ie. cheaper for users).

As for having only 1+2 decks showing or selecting which deck is which, as cnewton says these are feature requests. Thanks for adding your voice in for them :D
