software and hardware solution for bridging the analog world of vinyl and the digital world of computer audio files. Using regular turntables or CD players, you can scratch and mix files from your Mac or Windows XP computer's CD or hard drive, add in a live mic input for scratching, and even bypass to standard vinyl if you wish. Scratch LIVE is the complete digital solution for the vinyl junkie -- take your entire collection wherever you go and leave your precious vinyl at home!Rane Scratch LIVE includes the SL 1 interface to connect one or two standard vinyl or CD turntables to your computer. This extremely rugged, portable, high quality, bus-powered USB interface features two switchable phono or line inputs, a microphone input, two line outputs, and pass-through outputs for the phono/line and mic.The Scratch LIVE software gives you everything a DJ needs and then some. Its visual waveform display makes it so easy to match beats, you can do it without even hearing the tracks. Scratch LIVE offers Absolute Mode to faithfully reproduce movement of vinyl control records, including stops, starts, scratching, needle dropping, rubbing, backspins, powerdowns and other turntablist techniques. Or use the Relative Mode to disable needle dropping to ignore record skips, but still allow scratching. Scratch LIVE allows you to save your digital tracks in virtual \"crates\" to make finding the right tracks easy. Plus, Scratch LIVE can handle MP3, AIFF, WAV, OGG, and CD audio.The included 12\" vinyl records each have a Serato exclusive and unique control signal which allows Scratch LIVE to track the motion of the record, simulating the same movement with digital audio. Due to Serato's proprietary control scheme, the result is a feel and sound indistinguishable from playing vinyl. As a producer and DJ, the track you finished today can be played on a real turntable tonight. You'll never have to cut a dubplate again!Features :?Runs natively on Windows XP and Mac OS X?Supported File formats: Fixed and Variable Bit Rate MP3, AIFF, WAV, OGG, CD Audio and direct from the mic input?Play and scratch tracks direct from CD and CD-ROM?Record from the mic input and immediately scratch as if it was on vinyl?Absolute Mode: faithfully reproduce movement of vinyl control records, including stops, starts, scratching, needle dropping, rubbing, backspins, powerdowns and other turntablist techniques?Relative Mode: disable needle dropping to ignore record skips, but still allow scratching?Internal Mode: play songs without vinyl control, enabled automatically when end of vinyl groove is reached?Digital \"crates\" for quick access to your favorite collections?Full iTunes integration, Windows and Mac?Browse music collection by Artist, Album, Tempo (BPM) or Genre, with optional album art display?Instant full text search of ID3 tags, matches partial search terms; Edit ID3 tags with full Unicode support?Adjustable gain per song file?Drag and drop importing of tracks, no preprocessing required?Add whole directories of music files on the fly: tags are read in background, no performance interruptions?Single key song loading.

Advantages: Holds the record/Loud output/Long life/Easy to put onto cartridge Disadvantages: None that I can think of
...and this happens in some clubs.
This is extreemly imortant because since the Ortofon "scratch" styluses hold so well, you can put less weight on the the turntable arm; keeping the stylus on the record.
This means you won't wear out the record as easily
(less weight on the turntable arm = less wear on the record)
Also, if you put too much weight on the arm, the sound quality will diminish.
As I'm sure you know, turning the base of the arm clockwise and counter-clockwise makes the arm go up and down.
I would recommend setting it near the bottom (at home) and in the middle
(in clubs)
Sound:
Again, high output... Good quality sound/wide EQ range/clear
Final note:
However, I do NOT use these styluses anymore.
If you are not using Serato (DJ sofware) by now, you must be living under a rock...
Ortofon has a new "digital" needle...
