Am i right in tinkin i cant play mo den one song on each side of a record (unless i record one long ass track wid da correct needle droppin points fo each new beat?)
If i want a new track to play i gotta use da computer skreen to change track? This means da one song will be played on both sides of records n e where and everywhere? i cant lift up da needle and skip it to da next groove and play a totaly new song?
basikilly - i cant cue mo den one track on da same record?
can someone xplain da set (markers) option? Da numbas and colors allows me to do what exactly?

InspecDa-J: Use the que section on the 10 minute side to que the next track. That way you can play as many tracks as you want without ever touching the computer. It's all in the manual, which you can download from the Rane site if you don't have SSL yet.

Use of the prepare bin is optional. It is like putting several records up next to the turntable as you find them in your crate. If you are searching through your songs and you find a track you want to play, but not right away, you can throw it into prepare as a quick place to find it later. If you just want to load your next song, just load it with the keystroke (ctrl-left/right), or by dragging the song to the player, or by using the vinyl wheel (explained below).
I have no idea what you are saying.

The "bonus track" on the ten minute side is magic. You put the needle in the last "minute" of the record and then the movements of your record are translated into a moving selection on your screen. It turns your turntable into a big black iPod.

on point two, it sounds like the issue we already discussed.... IF im understanding you correctly, are you saying that one one channel, you are only getting sound out of one side with ssl, but with regular wax on that table, you get both channels? if so, we discussed it and most people said that it is a rare issue that fixes if you reboot..... I could be misunderstanding you too though

Holla
AJ - Da last minute only works for one selection? Den it freezes n goes into int. mode and yo gotta return to skreen?
djpetey - I tink yo right bout a fault wid da speaker ting - it worx now so coe..
Whats da best usb buffer size fo latency n how do yo find out da latency? Whats best?
I dont understand da SET tings still.. ? K so makin a SET point in a record will just help visualy? Whats da advantages? I most probably use it when i get a laptop in front of me if dats da case - am i wrong?
Dats it fo now.. thnx yo e z now

yea, the set thing is just so you can mark points that you want to go back to later on... makes it easier to find them again
the smaller the usb buffer the better the latency... but also the more processing power it takes. so depending on how fast your computer is, you can set the buffer smaller and smaller

It sounds like you're putting the needle in the gap before the last part of the record. The software only switches to internal mode somewhere in the 10 seconds of widely spaced groves before the magic part. Try dropping the needle into the middle of the last band of tightly spaced grooves, in other words a little later in the record.

I play da beat nicely
den i lift da needle and place it while da otha deck plays a beat. I place da needle on da last minute on da 10 minute side and it responds with da computer and i pick a new beat -
Once dis beat ends and i place da needle onto da last minute (becuase its da only part of da record fo me dat responds to da SSL screen record track choosin)
Soon as da needle touches da last minute it goes into int. and deres no beat selection just mission to desk
wogwarn
thnx

And you definitely try to put it in the *middle* of the last minute, not the start?


Josh
1:35 AM - 20 August, 2004
Ok so you're saying that it works fine once, but only once and from then on it always goes into internal mode when you put you needle into the vinyl select section of the record?
