15.FLASH START BUTTONS (6):
These button are used to store your samples and cue points. Only a sample or a cue point can be stored
in to each of these three banks. When a sample is store in to these banks you may use the sample starting
point as a cue point. The FLASH BUTTONS instantly recall and play any of your stored samples or cue
points without interrupting music playback. When in sample mode (see "Using the Built-In Sampler" on
page 15) during playback, pressing any of the FLASH BUTTON that has a sample stored in it and your
sample will immediately begin to play without interruption of music. If the unit is sample mode and the
drive is in pause, pressing any of the FLASH BUTTON that has a sample stored in it will immediately
begin to play the sample.
16.CHANGING THE TIME DISPLAY (49 & 50)/TIME BAR (51):
DURING NORMAL PLAYBACK, pressing the TIME BUTTON (25), will change the
time display information (49, 50, 56, & 57) in the LCD see figure 35. The following is
a break down of the time settings and their definitions:
1) ELAPSED (57) - This describes the time in the LCD (49, 50, &52) as the current
TRACKS Elapse running time.
2) REMAIN (56) - This describes the time in the LCD (49, 50, &52) as the current
TRACKS remaining running time.
3) TOTAL REMAIN (56) - This describes the time in the LCD (49, 50, &52) as
the disc total remaining running time.
TIME BAR INDICATOR - Details the time defined in the TIME METER (49 & 50) as a
visual bar icon. As with the TIME METER (49 & 50) this bar is also dependent on the
selected time function [TOTAL REMAIN (56), REMAIN (56) OR ELAPSE (57)]. This
bar will begin to flash when a track is ending regardless
of which time function you
are in. Use the flashing bar as a visual reminder that a track is ending.
17. FLIP-FLOP™
This feature is kind of “auto pilot”. When you are using two Pro Scratch 1™ players and an American DJ
“Q” Deck™ mixer, you can have one player begin playback when the other ends. You can “Flip Flop™” single
tracks, the entire disc, or a combination of the two.
To FLIP-FLOP™ single tracks:
1) Connect your system as described in the set up section on page 4.
2) Set your American DJ “Q” Deck™ mixer’s crossfader to the center position.
3) Set your two Pro Scratch 1™ to playback in single mode, SINGLE (43) should be indicated in the LCD
DISPLAY (1).
4) Load your two Pro Scratch 1™ with audio disc.
5) After they have both cued, press the PLAY/PAUSE BUTTON (15) on one of your drive to begin playback.
6) After the first player’s single track has ended the second player’s track will immediately begin playback.
7) FLIP FLOP™ will continue until you stop it or power is interrupted.
To Flip Flop entire CDs:
Be sure your drives are both in continuous play mode, make sure SINGLE MODE (43) does not appear in
the LCD DISPLAY'S (1) of both players. Follow all directions for single track FLIP FLOP™ above. When one
player’s disc ends the other player will immediately begin playback.
Note: You may combine FLIP FLOP™ single and continuously playback modes by selecting either single
or continuous playback on your units.
Connecting your Pro Scratch 1™ to an American DJ “Q” Deck™ mixer for “Flip Flop™” control: Be sure to
connect 1/8” mini plugs from the control connection on the rear your Pro Scratch 1 to the 1/8” control jack on
the rear of American DJ “Q” series mixer. That’s it, you’ll be set for FLIP FLOP™
