1. Introduction 1.1 Welcome to the SCS.1m! Thank you for purchasing SCS.1m! The SCS.1m (Stanton Control System 1 mixer) is the premier mixer control surface/audio interface 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

1.2 Overview Designed in an intuitive DJ mixer, the SCS.1m features four channel strips with faders, assignable encoder section, EQ controls, high-precision metering, a responsive crossfader, a straightforward Cue/Monitoring section, a unique footswitch input, and much more… The SCS.1m and the SCS.1d (deck) are the main components of the SC System 1; the first truly professional DJ control system. You can use the SCS.1m as standalone or in conjunction with the SCS.1d, not only to expand y

2. Connecting the SCS.1m 2.1 Connecting to Your Computer Step 1: Locate the included power cable and adapter (12V) and connect it to the SCS.1m 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

2.3 Connecting to the SCS.1d 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 2.5), (the other port is connected to your computer) to an open port on the SCS.1d. (Figure 2.6) Figure 2.5 Figure 2.6 Likewise, if you’re connecting two SCS.1ds to a SCS.1m, then you would g

3. SCS.1m Description In this chapter, we will briefly describe the Top, Front, and Back SCS.1m panels. It’s important to understand that the SCS.1m is a traditional DJ mixer “analogy” in a control surface. This means that while the SCS.1m looks like a DJ mixer, at its core, it is really a control surface. As a control surface, the SCS.1m’s functionality is completely derived from the host application (software) that it is controlling. The SCS.1m also utilizes presets in DaRouter to d

3.1.1 Channel Strip The button at the top of the strip might be mapped to functionalities like deck or channel focus, a shift modifier, etc. Five rotary encoders in the top section of the channel strip can be mapped to traditional mixer functions like gain, EQ, and panning. (Figure 3.2) The A and B buttons in the lower section of the strip can be used to toggle modifiers, assign the strip to the crossfader, etc. The CHANNEL FADER would usually be mapped to deck or channel volume.

3.1.3 Crossfader Section The CROSSFADER is traditionally used to fade between songs playing in different channels. (Figure 3.4) You might also consider mapping the CROSSFADER to non-traditional functionalities, like effects parameters, filters, or setting selections (like scrolling through effects). Figure 3.4 3.1.4 Master Section The Master Section controls various SCS.1m outputs. (Figure 3.5) The ZONE knob is meant to be mapped to an Aux out, like a

3.1.5 Browser Section This area of the SCS.1m would typically be mapped to browser-type functionality, whether that is scrolling through your library in Traktor, or selecting scenes in Ableton Live. (Figure 3.6) The three buttons at the top of the section can be used to select and activate banks or directory trees. The large push encoder can be used to scroll through and select songs, scenes, or directory trees. It would also allow the user to scrub through songs and/or cue them.

3.2 Front Panel In this panel, you will be able to connect your headphones. Stanton has included a headphone extender cable as the headphone jack is recessed into the panel to prevent accidentally damaging the headphone jack. Stanton has designed the headphone output to be extremely powerful and loud; it is important to remember that you must control the level of this output in your host application or assign it to the headphone knob on the front panel for volume control. ALWAYS have th

3.3 Rear Panel In 2.2 “Connecting to audio components,” we gave you an iconic representation of what could be connected to the SCS.1m. Here, we will briefly describe the Rear panel. (Figure 3.8) Figure 3.8 1. Power Switch: Turns the SCS.1m ON or OFF. 2. DC IN: Input connection for the included power supply. While the power is switched OFF, plug the power supply into the mixer first, and then plug it into the outlet. 3. FireWire Jacks: Sends audio and MIDI to and from

4. SCS.1m Software Installation To fully maximize SCS.1m capabilities and take advantage of its great features, some software needs to be installed with it. In fact, the SCS.1m Software Installation process differs greatly between Mac and PC computers. - On a Mac, the SCS.1m is Core Audio compliant, which means that the OS will recognize the SCS.1m without needing to install a driver. However, on a Mac you will need to install DaRouter for proper MIDI functionality. - In Windows, an
