To perform well in this environment, there are two main factors taken into account sound quality and build quality. The SL4 will find itself in a club setting often. These DJ's can now play back-to-back in any way they want! One DJ connects the SL4 to his laptop, and the other does the same using the spare USB port. Due to the four inputs on the SL4, one DJ can connect to two channels, and the same for the second DJ (using the other two channels). The advantages to this include its usage in a back-to-back environment, as well as when changing over between DJs. Why? The reason is to allow two DJ's to play simultaneously using only one SL4. This means that your digital library is accessed the same way it would if you were using a standard DJ controller! Your manipulation of the signal works in sync with the software, so it is as if your music is coming from the decks themselves.
#SERATO SL4 BOX SOFTWARE#
The software is now the hub of everything that the SL4 is doing. In this case, you need to connect it via USB to your laptop running Serato.
To do this, we need to give the box some sort of software interface. The control vinyl or CD simply outputs a digital signal, so the next step is converting this into a live DJ scenario. Once your inputs have been selected correctly, you can set them up with the software. To assign these settings to the input, there is a small switch with the corresponding channel numbers. Otherwise, you will likely need to choose the 'phono' option. It will be at line level if the turntable has a built-in pre-amp that is boosting the signal. Turntables can output either phono or line. CDJ's always output at 'line' level (in this case, the 'CD' option). To work out which one you need, you need to see what type of output your source media player has. All of these are switchable between phono and line level. There are four available inputs on the interface. The RANE SL4 is available to order on our website now! If you are a turntable user but want access to your digital library as well, this is a great platform to expand on your collection. Simply connect the box 'in-line' (between your source components and mixer) and hook up the USB output to your laptop, and let it do the rest. Rather than rely on a DJ controller to play the tunes on your laptop, the SL4 allows the use of turntables and CDJ's. The beauty of this method is the freedom it gives you. It is designed to take an analogue signal and digitally process it so that you can control the music in real-time using Serato.
