Numark Scratch [9/52] Operation

Operation

Pad Modes

Each deck has four pads, which are always in one of three modes: Cue,

Sample, or Roll. Press the Pad Mode button to change the pad mode.

The corresponding Pad Mode Indicator will light up to display which

mode is selected.

Cue

In Cue Mode, each pad assigns a hot cue point or returns the track to that hot cue point.

To assign a hot cue point, press an unlit Pad at the desired point in your track. The pad will

light up when it is assigned.

Note: If you load a track in your software that already has hot cue points saved, the

corresponding pads will automatically be lit and assigned those hot cue points.

To jump to a hot cue point, press a lit Pad.

To delete an assigned hot cue point, press Shift and the corresponding pad.

Sample

In Sample Mode, the pads will control the sampler in the software. The pads each trigger a

sample at a specified volume (you can assign the sample and its volume in the software).

To assign a sample, first highlight the desired sample in your library. Then hold Shift and

press an unlit pad corresponding to an empty sampler slot in the software. The sampler slot

volume can be adjusted in Serato DJ Pro.

To play a sample, press a lit pad. The pad will flash as the sample plays.

To stop playback of a sample, press Shift and the corresponding Pad while it plays.

Roll

In Roll Mode, each pad triggers a momentary loop roll. Releasing the pad stops the loop roll

and resumes normal playback where the playhead would be if you had not triggered the loop

roll (as if the track had been playing forward the whole time).

To trigger a loop roll, press and hold any Pad.

The length of the loop will be based on which of the four pads you press (leftmost for the

shortest loop; rightmost for the longest loop).

You can change which loop lengths are available in your DJ software, and the Performance

Pads on Scratch will adjust accordingly.
