1. Introduction 1.1 Welcome to the SCS.1d! Thank you for purchasing SCS.1d! The SCS.1d (Stanton Control System 1 deck) is the premier deck control surface for laptop DJs, remixers, VJs, and producers. Before we begin, there are a few important issues we would like to bring to your attention. There is a software component to this hardware. It is called DaRouter. DaRouter is a kind of “MIDI processor” that allows the use of presets. These presets can be application specific mappings, or

1.2 Overview The SCS.1d was designed for high‐precision software control. Thanks to its straightforward interface and intuitive ergonomics, the SCS.1d provides a host of top‐notch features at your fingertips, such as high‐torque 10” motorized platter, 100mm motorized pitch fader, velocity‐sensitive pads, assignable encoder sections, and much more… The SCS.1d (deck) and the SCS.1m are the main components of the SC System 1; Stanton‘s most advanced digital control system for the professi

2. Connecting the SCS.1 2.1 Connecting to Your Computer Step 1: Locate the included power cable and adapter (24V) and connect it to the SCS.1d and to your power source. (Figure 2.1) Note If you own both the SCS.1m and the SCS.1d, the power adapters look very similar. Looking at the output voltage will tell you which is for which component, (e.g., 12V for the SCS.1m, and 24V for the SCS.1d). There is also a label on each of the power cords to specify which product they are to be u

2.2 Connecting to the SCS.1d to the SCS.1m All of the SCS.1 controllers have two FireWire ports on them, so devices can be chained together if needed. So when connecting a single SCS.1d to the SCS.1m, you would go from the unused FireWire port on the SCS.1m (Figure 2.4), (the other port is connected to your computer) to an open port on the SCS.1d. (Figure 2.5) Figure 2.4 Figure 2.5 Likewise, if you’re connecting two SCS.1d’s to a

3. SCS.1d Description In this chapter, we will briefly describe the top panel of the SCS.1d. It’s important to understand that the SCS.1d is a traditional DJ turntable / CD player “analogy” in a control surface. This means that while the SCS.1d looks like a DJ turntable / CD player, at its core, it is really a control surface that sends and receives control data to and from a computer. As a control surface, the SCS.1d’s functionality is completely derived from the host application (sof

3.2 Encoder Section This section consists of four rotary push encoders, each with an LED encoder ring to indicate the value of the encoder, and an LCD “scribble strip” that can be used to indicate the functionality of each encoder. Encoders are used to control variable parameters such as effect levels. Encoders do not physically stop when you turn them; instead the LED encoder rings indicate the position of the control you are adjusting. 3.3 Trigger Section The trigger

3.4 Platter / Global Section This section controls the assignment of the platter as well as global functionality. The DECK SELECT button will allow you toggle virtual decks on screen. In this way when you switch virtual decks, the SCS.1d will also change its state to match the on screen deck. By using one physical SCS.1d you can control multiple virtual decks. The VINYL, CONTROL and BROWSE buttons all modify the motorized jogwheel’s functionality within the application. The motor

3.5 Pitch Section The pitch section represents a traditional pitch control found on a CD player or turntable. However, the key difference is that the pitch control is motorized to support functionality such as auto‐sync in an application and updating position when switching virtual decks. It’s important to not stop the motorized fader while it’s moving to prevent damage. The RESET button will center the pitch slider to 0% automatically. The RANGE button

3.7 Preset Switcher Section The preset switcher section controls switching of presets on the SCS.1d. Presets are generally related towards switching presets for the encoder section, trigger section or pitch slider. Presets are groups of controls with functionality focused towards doing a single task. For instance, a loop preset will contain all the controls needed to create, move and modify a loop. Preset configuration and functionality are highly dependent on the applic

4. SCS.1 Software Installation Before installing the SCS1 software (DaRouter and drivers) make sure you follow these guidelines: 1) Windows: Do NOT connect the SCS.1 controller(s) until prompted by the driver installer. 2) Windows: When intending to use multiple SCS.1 controllers at once (mixer + decks) make sure you connect ALL the devices during the driver installer. 3) Always check the Stanton website (listed below) for the latest drivers and firmware. To fully maximize SCS.1 capa
