Scope Reading and Fixes Most of the problems that occur with Scratch Live can be attributed to it not getting a good reading of the control signal from your records or CDs. These examples show what the scopes on the setup screen can look like to help solve possible problems. Some problems cause similar looking scopes, e.g., if your scopes look like the Dusty Needle one, the cause could be a damaged needle. GOOD SIGNAL - Clean signal with 100% tracking. NO SIGNAL - Scratch Live is not receiving any control signal - check your connections. BAD TURNTABLE VIBRATION - Bass is reaching the stylus. Try to isolate the turntable from the speakers. CD PLAYER INTO PHONO INPUT - The Sixty-One is set to receive a phono input. Switch to the correct setting on the mixer. PHONO INTO LINE INPUT - The SixtyOne is set to receive line level input. Switch to the correct setting on the mixer. DUSTY NEEDLE - Dust is preventing the stylus from tracking the groove correctly. Clean your needle and the control vinyl. UNEARTHED - Very susceptible to interference. Attach the turntable's ground wire to the Sixty-One. USING PIGGYBACK CABLES - Picking up huge amounts of noise, barely tracking. Check your cables. DAMAGED NEEDLE - Try re-seating, cleaning or replacing your stylus. 42 RANE SIXTY-ONE MIXER FOR SERATO SCRATCH LIVE • OPERATOR'S MANUAL 2.5.0
