Set it to Off to use the conventional fader polarity.

10. Split Cue: When this switch is set to the On (right) position, the headphone audio will be “split” such

that the cue channel is summed to mono and sent to the left headphone channel while the program mix is summed to mono and sent to the right channel. When the switch is set to the Off (left) position, the cue channel and program mix will be “blended” together. In both cases, use the Cue Mix knob on the top panel to control the balance of the two signals.10 Operation Looping Each deck on the Seventy A-Trak Edition is equipped with three buttons on the top panel that you can use to easily create and modify loops. Each button has a primary function (printed above the button) and a secondary function (printed below the button). To activate an autoloop of a track playing on a deck, press the deck’s Loop On/Off (Reloop) button. The length of the loop in bars will depend on your software’s current loop size setting. If the current setting is not the loop size you want, you can change the loop size. To change the autoloop size, use the x1/2 (Loop In) button to divide the number of bars in half or the x2 button (Loop Out) to double the number of bars. You can change the loop size either before you activate a loop or while a loop is active and playing. To deactivate an autoloop of a track playing on a deck, press the deck’s Loop On/Off (Reloop) button. To activate the last used loop on a deck, hold Shift and press the Loop On/Off (Reloop) button on the corresponding deck while the previously looped track is still playing. The same segment of the track that was looped before will be looped again. To activate a manual loop of a track playing on a deck, use the deck’s x1/2 (Loop In) and x2 (Loop Out) buttons. Press the x1/2 (Loop In) button to set the start point for the loop, then press the x2 (Loop Out) button to set the end point for the loop. After you set the end point, the loop will automatically begin playing. To deactivate a manual loop of a track playing on a deck, press the deck’s Loop On/Off (Reloop) button. Effects

Deck 1 FX Tempo Deck 1 Beat Division Setting Deck 2 FX Tempo11 Applying Effects to a Deck To activate software or internal effects on a deck, use the deck’s Effects Toggle. Latch the toggle in the up position to apply effects to a deck. Alternatively, you can pull the toggle down and then let go in order to momentarily apply effects to the deck. To deactivate software or internal effects on a deck, place the deck’s Effects Toggle in the center position. To select or deselect which effects will be activated by the Effects Toggles, press the FX buttons. When an effect is selected, the corresponding FX button will be brightly lit, and the effect name will appear on the Display. To change whether the FX buttons select software or internal effects, press the FX Mode button. When set to Flex FX Mode, the FX Mode button will be lit blue. When set to Software Effects Mode, the button will be lit amber. If set to Flex FX Mode, you can activate one effect, which will be applied to both decks. If set to Software Effects Mode, you can stack up to three different effects on each deck. Note: If you would like to use multiple software effects on a deck, set Software FX > Multi FX to On in the Main Menu, which you can access by holding Shift and pressing Tap (see the Main Menu section of this manual for more help navigating the settings). Also, make sure that Serato DJ Pro is set to Multi FX mode by going to the FX tab and selecting the deck’s icon. In Software Effects Mode, the FX buttons to the left of the FX Mode button will correspond to Bank A software effects (routed by default to Deck 1), and the three FX buttons to the right of the FX Mode button will correspond to Bank B software effects (routed by default to Deck 2). Names of Serato DJ Pro effects will be visible on Seventy A-Trak Edition’s Display (as pictured on the previous page). To change which Serato DJ Pro effect is applied to a deck in Software Effects Mode:

1. Hold Shift and then press the FX button corresponding to the effect. The FX button will flash.

2. Turn the Parameter Knob to scroll through effects. As you scroll, the effect name will update on the

3. When the effect you’d like to apply is displayed, press the Parameter Knob. The FX button will stop

flashing. To use software effects and a Flex effect simultaneously, set Software FX > Mix Flex FX to On in the Main Menu, which you can access by holding Shift and pressing Tap (see the Main Menu section of this manual for more help navigating the settings). While this setting is On, the currently activated effect(s) will remain active even as you change the FX mode. If the setting is Off, switching the FX mode will deselect any effect(s) from the previous mode. To change how software effects sound when they’re deselected, set Software FX > USB Insert to On or Auto in the Main Menu, which you can access by holding Shift and pressing Tap (see the Main Menu section of this manual for more help navigating the settings). When set to Auto, any active software effect will be muted as soon you deselect it with the FX button. When set to On, deselected software effects will have an audible “tail” as they gradually decay. Note: The Auto setting may be preferable for Scratch DJ’s, as it decreases the amount of overall audio latency, better allowing you to scratch with precision. Editing Live Effects on a Deck The Display screen will show the FX tempo for each deck, which will automatically match the tempo of the song playing on the deck (unless you manually change this setting as described below). With most effects, the Display will also show the FX beat division and depth level for each deck. See the previous page for an illustration of the Display. To change which deck is in focus on the Display, push the FX Joystick left and right. The Focus Arrow surrounding the FX tempo will show which deck is currently in focus. To edit a deck’s FX tempo, turn the Parameter Knob or press the Tap button two or more times at the desired BPM while the deck is in focus on the Display. The new FX tempo will be shown on the Display. Note: After you manually edit a deck’s FX tempo, the setting will not reset even after loading a new song to the deck. To make a deck’s FX Tempo go back to automatically matching the tempo of the track loaded on the deck, press and hold the Tap button for three seconds while the deck is in focus on the Display.12 To edit a deck’s FX beat division, push the FX Joystick up or down while the deck is in focus on the Display. Use this setting to adjust the rhythmic timing of a deck’s effect(s) in accord with the FX tempo. By default, the available beat division settings for the Flex FX range from 1/32T (32nd note triplet) – 32D (32 bars dotted), while the beat division settings for Serato DJ Pro effects range from 1/16 (16th note) – 8 (8 bars). If you would like to modify the available beat division settings for the Flex FX, you can go to the Main Menu and switch from the default Extended Mode to No Dotted, No Triplet, or Simple Mode. See the Main Menu section of this manual for more help navigating the settings. Note: The Brake effect does not have a beat division parameter. In place of a beat division parameter, the Reverb effect has a Decay parameter, which adjusts the intensity and duration of the reverb. To increase or decrease a deck’s FX depth level, turn the Depth Knob for the deck. As you increase or decrease the depth level, the Depth Level Meter will update on the Display. Note: In place of a Depth Level Meter, the Brake effect has a Length Meter, which adjusts the amount of time it will take for a track to stop or “brake” when the effect is activated. To edit a secondary Flex effect parameter while in Flex FX Mode:

1. Hold Shift and press the FX button for the effect.

to the parameter. The new setting will be saved and remembered when you power off Seventy A-Trak Edition.

4. Press an FX button or push the Joystick to the

left in order to return to the main Flex FX Display screen. Note: The Brake Flex FX does not have secondary parameters. The following secondary Flex effect parameters are available for editing:

• Echo: o Type: Simple, Duck, or Hold. Use the Simple setting for a standard echo effect. If Duck Echo is selected, the echo effect will be heard only when the deck is muted with the Channel Fader or Crossfader. Use the Hold setting for a standard echo effect with extra feedback; if Hold Echo is selected and the Feedback parameter is set to 100%, the echoes will infinitely recirculate. o HPF: Sets the cutoff frequency for the echo effect. Any frequencies below the assigned cutoff will be bypassed by the effect. o Feedback: Sets the level and decay time of the echo.

• Reverb: o Room: Small or Large. The Small setting will simulate the reverb effect of a small room, making for tighter reverberation sounds. The Large setting will simulate the reverb effect of a larger room, making for longer reverberations. o HPF (High Pass Filter): Sets the cutoff frequency for the reverb effect. Any frequencies below the assigned cutoff will be bypassed by the effect.

• Flanger: o Feedback: Adjusts the intensity and resonance of the flanger. o Polarity: Select between POS (positive) and NEG (negative) to adjust the overall harmonics of the flanger.

• Phaser: o Feedback: Adjusts the intensity and resonance of the phaser. REVERB ROOM HPF LARGE

• Fader FX: When Fader FX is enabled, you can use the channel faders to apply one of the following effects to the audio singal. Note: When enabled, the channel fader level is "Frozen" at the current position. The Deck Level knobs may be used to adjust the track volume while Fader FX are engaged, if necessary. o Filter: When moving the channel fader up and down, a filter is applied to the audio signal. Type: Sets the type of filter applied: Band Pass, High Pass or Low Pass. o Roll: When the Effects Toggle is engaged, moving the channel fader up and down will apply a roll as the deck audio continues playing. The Depth Knob controls the mix between the roll and the original audio. HPF (High Pass Filter): When set to On, any frequencies below the assigned cutoff will be bypassed by the effect. Set to Off to bypass the filter. o Pitch: When the Effects Toggle is engaged, moving the channel fader up and down will alter the pitch of the track playing. Shift: Sets the type of pitch shifting applied: Up, Up Wide, Down, or Down Wide. Scale: Select between Major or Minor scale modes to tune the pitching shifting, or set to Off. o Ring (Modulator): When the Effects Toggle is engaged, moving the channel fader from the top to the bottom will apply a 50% shift in frequency focus. For instance, at the default Freq setting of 2000, the frequency focus will be 2000 at the top of the channel fader to 1000 at the bottom when Mod is set to Decrease. Freq: Sets the base frequency of the ring modulation (800, 1000, 1500, 2000, 4000, or 8000). Mod: Sel ect Increase to increase the frequency with the channel fader from top to bottom, or Decrease to decrease the frequency. o Sine / Sawtooth / Square / Triangle: When the Effects Toggle is engaged, moving the channel fader up and down applies one of these sound waves to the audio signal. The Depth Knob controls the volume of the wave, and the channel fader controls the tone. Note: Sets the the pitch of the wave (C, D, E, F, G, A or B). Octave: Sets the octave of the wave (0–8). You can also change default Flex FX parameters from Seventy A-Trak Edition’s Main Menu. To learn more, see the Main Menu section of this manual. Pad Modes This chapter describes the different pad modes. Each deck has eight pads, which are always in one of these modes, and each deck’s pads can be in a different mode. Press one of the Pad Mode buttons to enter the corresponding pad mode on that deck. With each press, a Pad Mode button will alternate between a primary and secondary pad mode. When you enter a primary pad mode, the corresponding Pad Mode button will be lit with its primary color. When you enter a secondary pad mode, the corresponding Pad Mode button will be lit red. Note: If you would like to increase the brightness of the pads, set Pad > Daytime Mode to On in the Main Menu, which you can access by holding Shift and pressing Tap (see the Main Menu section of this manual for more help navigating the settings). Hot Cue In Cue Mode, each pad assigns a hot cue point or returns the track to that hot cue point.

Menu Options The Main Menu contains the following pages and options: Settings: Select this page to adjust settings for some of the mixer’s audio controls:

• Audio: o Main Out: Determines whether the main mix is in stereo or mono. o Mix Pan: Controls the left-right balance of the main mix signal.

• Deck 1 and Deck 2: o PH Sens (Phono Sensitivity): If connecting a turntable to a deck’s PH/CD In, use this setting to make sure that the turntable functions optimally with Seventy A-Trak Edition. Set the input sensitivity level (2.5 mV – 10.0 mV) to the setting recommended by your turntable cartridge’s manufacturer. o Tone XOver: Use this setting to edit the range of frequencies controlled by each of the deck’s EQ knobs. If 150/6K is selected, the Low EQ Knob will control frequencies below 150 Hz, the Mid EQ Knob will control frequencies between 150 Hz and 6000 Hz, and the High EQ Knob will control frequencies over 6000 Hz. If 300/3K is selected the Low EQ Knob will control frequencies below 300 Hz, the Mid EQ Knob will control frequencies between 300 and 3000 Hz, and the High EQ Knob will control frequencies above 3000 Hz. o Pan: Use this setting to adjust the left-right balance of the deck’s signal within the main mix. o DVS Input: If you are connecting Seventy A-Trak Edition to an external device (such as a vinyl turntable) in order to control Serato DJ Pro with Serato DVS, you can use this setting to determine which of Seventy A-Trak Edition’s inputs is recognized by Serato DJ Pro as the control source: PH/CD (the Deck PH/CD In) or AUX (the Deck Aux In).18

• Filter: o Deck1 and Deck2 Res: Use this setting to increase or decrease the amount of resonance effect heard when the filter is used. o LPF Min: The cutoff frequency for the LOW position of the filter knobs. At FULL CUT, the LOW position will silence the deck. o HPF Max: The cutoff frequency for the HI position of the filter knobs. At FULL CUT, the HI position will silence the deck.

• Pad: o Sensitivity: Adjusts how hard you need to strike the Performance Pads in order for them to perform their assigned functions. The lower the setting, the harder you have to strike the pad. o User Modes: Turns On or Off the ability to access the two custom pad modes. See Pad Modes > Custom Pad Sets to learn more about the custom modes. o Daytime Mode: Turning this setting On increases the brightness of the Performance Pad LEDs.

• Headphone: o Tone: Adjusts the balance of low and high frequencies sent out the Headphone Outputs. Turn the Parameter Knob to the left for more low (L) frequencies or to the right for more high (H) frequencies.

• Mic 1: o Echo Fdbk: Increases or decreases the amount of audible feedback effect when the Mic 1 Echo is activated. o Duck Thres: This setting (Low, Med, or High) adjusts how much microphone input volume is required in order for the main mix volume to be decreased (or “ducked” under the mic audio). The higher the setting, the louder you have to speak in the microphone in order for the main mix to be ducked. o Duck Hold: This setting determines how long the main mix volume will remain ducked after you stop using the microphone. o Clean Feed: When this setting is On, Serato DJ Pro will not receive audio from the Seventy A-Trak Edition’s Mic 1 Input while recording is in progress. This way, you can record your live DJ set and still use the microphone without it affecting the recorded mix.

Hold Shift and press the button to deactivate sync. o Instant Doubles: In this mode, press the button to load the deck’s track to the other deck. o Silent Cue: In this mode, press the button to mute the deck. You can use this feature to silence a track before selecting a hot cue for playback with the Performance Pads (the deck will unmute as the cued audio begins playing). You can also unmute the deck by holding Shift and pressing the button (the track’s playhead will be unaffected).

• Defaults: Select this option to restore all of the settings in the Settings page to their factory default values. Cut-In Adjust: Select this page to enter the Cut-In Adjust setup menu:

• Deck 1 and Deck 2: Set these between 0 and 16 to determine the amount of dead space between the closed and open positions of the deck’s fader. The higher the setting, the higher you have to push the Channel Fader in order for any audio to be heard.

• XFader L and XFader R: Set these between 0 and 16 to determine the amount of dead space between the Crossfader’s closed and open positions. The higher the setting, the further you have to push the Crossfader toward the center position in order for any audio to be heard.19 Flex FX: Select this page to view and edit the internal Flex FX settings:

• Beats: Select this option to determine the increments in which the Flex FX beat division parameter can be adjusted: o In Extended Mode, you can set Flex FX to standard timings ranging from 1/32 to 32 beats as well as dotted and triplet variants of each of these timings. o In Simple Mode, which is the factory default, you can set Flex FX beats only to standard timings (no triplet or dotted timings). o In No Dotted Mode, the Flex FX beats include standard timings and triplets but no dotted timings. o In No Triplet Mode, the Flex FX beats include standard and dotted timings but no triplets.

• Echo, Reverb, Brake, Flanger, Phaser, and Fader FX: Select one of these pages to edit a Flex effect’s parameters. When you save a change to an effect parameter here, it will be made the default setting for whenever you select the effect. To learn more about Flex FX parameters, see the Effects section.

• Defaults: Select this option to restore all of the Flex FX settings to their factory default values. Software FX: Select this page to adjust how Serato DJ Pro’s software effects function with the Seventy A- Trak Edition:

• Multi FX: Setting this to On will enable you to use stacked software effects (as described in the Effects section).

• Mix Flex FX: Setting this to On will enable you to combine software effects with a Flex effect (as described in the Effects section).

• USB Insert: When set to Auto, any software effect will be muted as soon as you deselect it with the FX button, thus decreasing overall latency (which is beneficial for scratching). When set to On, deselected software effects may have an audible “tail” as they gradually decay (depending on the effect).
