#DECKADANCE VS SERATO DRIVER#

Windows users will have access to theĪSIO4ALL universal soundcard driver included in the Deckadance installation. Options available in this menu depend on the soundcard devices connected to your computer. This is your Soundcard or audio interface device labeled by the name of the Select a soundcard - From the Audio Interface field, select a driver (see the screenshot above).NOTE: If you have a 'surround-sound' (5.1 or 7.1) audio interface, you can use the rear speaker outputs as a second audio out for headphones for example. Headphones (Monitor), 4 stereo channels from decks A, B, C & DĪnd an Auxiliary output to a sampler, recorder or some other device. External mixing - In this configuration you have the option to configure 6 stereo audio outputs.Headphones (Monitor) and Main outputs (Speakers/Mixing desk). Internal mixing - In this configuration you can select 2 stereo audio outputs.Your ability to use the options below will depend on the number of outputs your audio interface has: OUTPUTS - Select audio output configuration for internal or external audio mixing.The number of outputs available depends entirely on the Audio Device (soundcard, mixer or audio interface) you are using. Input decks + mic - You can have any combination of Vinyl or CDJ decks to a total of 4.Input decks - You can have any combination of Vinyl or CDJ decks to a total of 4.

If you think you can sing, check with friends first! Your mother's opinion does not count. You will either be announcing or singing. Mic - Using a single microphone input.

No inputs - Using only Deckadance internal decks.

Your ability to use the options below will depend on the number of inputs your audio interface has:

INPUTS - Select audio input configuration.

The number of inputs available depends entirely on the Audio Device (soundcard, mixer or audio interface) you are using.

Windows: If your audio interface does not have native ASIO drivers we recommend using

show this device's control panel - Opens the soundcard driver interface.

DVS - For DVS 'scratching' we suggest that you disable the master tempo engine and reduce the latency as low as possible around (88 samples for an average computer and soundcard.

We also recommend multiples of this latency in case longer latencies

Elastique - When Elastique master tempo engine is active, a minimum suggested latency is 128 samples.

Generally - For most DJ work there is no need to set a latency below 256 samples (~5 ms 44.1 kHz).

The ideal buffer is the smallest your computer can manage without causing glitches. Hearing/seeing the result is at least equal to this setting (in ms). As the latency is increased the delay between moving a MIDI/interface control and

Latency - This is a working buffer (breathing space) used to avoid CPU overload.

44100 Hz (44.1 kHz) is most common although some interfaces use 48000 Hz (48 kHz).

Sample rate - Select the play-back frequency of your audio interface.

Are you ready to test? Make sure no one has been fiddling with the amplifier volume controls!

Test - Tests the Left and Right channels.

#DECKADANCE VS SERATO PC#

PC users: We recommend using the ASIO4ALL driver if you don't have specific hardware in mind. device - Selects your soundcard/audio & driver.PC: ASIO or Direct Sound (ASIO recommenced). Audio device type - Select the audio driver type.The options that show in the INPUT/OUTPUT drop down menus above depend on the audio interface/s connected to your computer.

#DECKADANCE VS SERATO MAC#

Windows users can use ASIO4ALL while OSX, Mac users can use the Aggregate DeviceĮditor. NOTE: With the ability to use of 5 pairs of audio inputs and 6 pairs of outputs, you may find it useful to aggregate the inputs/outputs from several audio interfaces in Deckadance. Surround-sound audio interfaces, for example, will have a pair of rear-speaker outputs that can be used for the Monitor mix. NOTE: In order to set a separate headphone (Cue) mix, you need to have an audio interface with, at least, two pairs of stereo outputs, one for the Monitor (headphone mix) and oneįor the Master (main mix). it is strongly recommended that you select an ASIO driver (ASIO4ALL for example) as Deckadance will run more smoothly with ASIO. Inputs are used to accept control signals from vinyl/CDJs and from microphones for PA (Public Address). In order to get the best out of Deckadance, you may need to take some time to familiarize yourself with the Audio options.ĭeckadance uses both audio inputs and outputs.

NOTE: Audio Settings are accessed from the Tool Bar. To open the Setup Function Window, click on the preferences icon located on the tool-bar at the top of the main interface.
