1. button 31 Using the SC System 3 for Generic MIDI Control 6 Using the SC System 3 for Generic MIDI Control In addition to the Virtual DJ LE specific operation the SC System 3 can be used as a powerful MIDI controller solution for any MIDI compatible application by selecting a different preset If you are not using Virtual DJ LE please check the Stanton website and forums to see if there is a specific DaRouter preset available for your favorite application The SCS 3d and SCS 3m work slightly different in respect to how they can be used generically The SCS 3m has standalone preset functionality built into the hardware whereas the SCS 3d always requires DaRouter to be running Likewise when all 3 components are going to be used together DaRouter must be running Now let s go over how to configure the SCS 3m and SCS 3d as standalone and the SC System 3 as a whole for Generic MIDI Control 6 1 SCS 3m Standalone Configuration The SCS 3m works in three modes Automatic mode for standard MIDI use cases Application Feedback mode for applications with MIDI output and Flat mode for running DaRouter presets In Automatic and Application Feedback modes all the deck mode switching is handled by the SCS 3m for easy MIDI learning In Automatic mode the SCS 3m controls all of its own LEDs In Application Feedback mode the SCS 3m processes MIDI output from your application to keep LEDs in sync between the application and one or m2. Figure 3 8 The sliders on the SCS 3m are touch sensitive virtual faders Moving your finger across one is like moving a fader or turning a knob Sounds pretty simple and it is However there is another aspect to the sliders that is not obvious and that is their multi touch capability Note Throughout the manual we will use the HOLD and the TAP icon to help you icon understand the multi touch feature To do a multi touch press and hold one point on a slider and then tap a different location Figure 3 9 Figure 3 9 Using multi touch on different sliders can produce some very interesting results The faders can also be used as relative controls allowing for very fine control of parameters with a total range greater than the length of the slider 10 EQ FX Mode Switches 3 2 3 EQ FX Mode Switches between EQ controls and FX controls Allows for 4 buttons and 4 sliders per deck When switching modes the latest values for that mode will be displayed Figure 3 10 stanton These buttons will toggle the Slider Section and Button Section Figure 3 10 3 2 4 Channel Fader The Channel Fader is always assigned to control each channel s volume even when you are in EQ FX mode With StanTouch technology it is easy to do quick kills or gradual fades using this touch strip Like the other SCS 3m sliders the Channel Fader lets you know its value with the LED strip next to it and it will remember

S 3m Let s begin by comparing the different control groups on the SCS 3m to their counterparts on a traditional mixer 3 1 1 Channel Pan The Channel Pan control allows you to move the audio on that channel left or right in the stereo field This can be used as an effect or to compensate for problems either in the loaded track or the main speakers NOTE In Virtual DJ these faders are used to control the FILTER or first FX parameter depending on mode Figure 3 1 Figure 3 1 3 1 2 EQ Section An EQ allows you to manipulate different frequencies On the SCS 3m the EQ section is separated into 3 sliders Each slider corresponds to a frequency range Low Mid and High You can use the EQ to make subtle adjustments to a track to match it to your other track for instance if the bass is too boomy Many DJs will mix tracks together not just with the volume but will also lower the bass of the incoming track so it blends smoothly with the playing track You can also use the EQs as effects radically changing the sound of a playing track Figure 3 2 Channel Fader 3 1 3 Channel Fader The Channel Faders also called line faders upfaders etc control the volume of their associated channel before the signal gets to the Crossfader The touch sensitive strips on the SCS 3m act just like the Channel Faders on a traditional mixer allowing you to adjust the volume of the
