SP-6 ‘Play From’ Selector

Use this
selector
to choose where the track will play from.
You can choose to play a track from the
start of the file, any one of the cue points,
or any one of the loop in points.
When this is set to play from start, or
play from a cue point, the track will play
right through until stopped. When a loop
is selected, the track will play until the
loop out point, unless you have “track
repeat” on, in which case the track will
loop using the in and out points of the
selected loop.
The number of options will be
dependent on the number of cue points
and loops already set in your track. i.e
if the track loaded has no cue points
and loops set, then only “start” will be
available as a “Play From” option.

TIP: To set or adjust cue and loop
information for a track, load it to a
Virtual Deck, make your adjustments,
then load it back into the sample slot.

SP-6 Track Overviews

Displays an
overview
of the
track loaded to each sample slot. The
waveform, play head position, cue points
and selected loops will all be visible.

SP-6 Slot Volumes

Each
individual
sample
slot has a
separate volume slider and gain control.

Volume Sliders - Use the volume slider to
mix and make temporary adjustments to
the volume of the sample you are playing.
You can use these sliders like you use the
line faders or up faders on your DJ mixer,
fading from full volume right through to
completely silent.

Gain Knobs - In addition to the volume
slider there is an additional gain knob for
each slot. These allow you to fine tune
the maximum gain volume of the loaded
sample. The gain adjustment will also be
written to the track’s ID3 tag, meaning that
it will be the same everytime you load it.

SP-6 Output Selector

Use the output selector to
choose where you wish to
have the SP-6 output to.

L outputs through the left channel
M outputs through both channels (mix)
R outputs through the right channel

There is also a master sample
player Gain knob to adjust the
overall SP-6 volume.

Individual Output Selectors

By default
each
sample slot will be set to Master, mirroring
the SP-6 master output setting. You
can however, use the individual output
selector buttons to override the master
output setting.

To send an individual slot to a different
output from the master, deselect the
master option by clicking on the master
button for the corresponding slot.
This will unlink the sample slot from the
master sample player output selection,
allowing you to choose the L, M, R output
for each slot. These output routings will be
saved when you close down Scratch Live,
so the next time you launch Scratch Live,
your preferred settings will remain the
same.

SP-6 Sample Banks

The SP-6 has four separate
sample banks, labeled A, B,
C and D. To switch between
the different banks click on the A, B, C
or D buttons. Each bank will save the
individual sample and sample slot settings
you last used, allowing you to prepare
banks for easy recall at a later stage.
Sample Bank A will load as the default.

SP-6 Mute Buttons

Use the mute buttons to mute the
audio output for each of the SP-6’s
sample slots. Click on the mute button
to mute the audio output, click the mute
button again to turn the audio back on.
You can also ctrl-click on the mute
buttons to mute the outputs momentarily,
meaning that the audio will only be muted
for as long as you hold your mouse click.

TIP: You can MIDI assign these buttons,
allowing you to create a virtual kill
switch for the sample slot. To MIDI
assign momentary mute, hold ctrl and
click on the mute button before tapping
your MIDI controller.

SP-6 MIDI

All features of the SP-6 are MIDI
assignable. The SP-6 window must be
opened first before enabling MIDI assign
mode.
