Using as a controller for other DJ software

The DDJ-SP1 also outputs the operating data for the buttons and controls in MIDI format. If you connect a computer with a built-in MIDI-compatible DJ software via a USB cable, you can operate the DJ software on this unit.

To use as a controller to operate DJ software other than the Serato DJ software, switch to the setting for using software other than the Serato DJ software in the utilities mode. Also, make the DJ software's MIDI-related settings.

- For details, see your DJ software's operating instructions.

About installation locations

• Do not place this unit on objects radiating heat, such as an amplifier, or expose it to a spotlight for an extended period of time, as this may damage this unit.
• Install this unit away from a tuner or a TV. Otherwise, image distortion or noise may result. Also, image distortion or noise can easily occur if an indoor antenna is used. In such cases, use an outdoor antenna or disconnect the USB cable from this unit and turn off the power.

Cleaning the product

Under normal circumstances, wipe it with a dry cloth. For hard-to-remove stains, soak a soft cloth in a neutral detergent diluted with 5 to 6 times of water, wring it thoroughly, wipe off the stains, and wipe the surface with a dry cloth again. Do not use alcohol, thinner, benzene, or insecticide, as these may peel off the printed label or the coated film. Avoid leaving rubber or vinyl products in contact for an extended period of time, as this may also damage the surface of the cabinet. When using chemical-impregnated wipes, etc., read the cautions carefully. Unplug the USB cable from this unit before cleaning.
