    Default SCS.1M and firewire to usb

    so i dont have firewire but i like the scs.1m so i was wondering what the downside to using an adapter is. increased latency and etc. also if anyone has the 1M what do you think? i want to use it with two DN-SC2000s


    also, is there anyway to route two sample decks and two track decks through a 2 channel mixer? without the vol. faders on the mixer controlling the actual vol.

    Plug everything into your sound card then plug your sound card into 1 channel of the mixer. Keep the Mixer on full volume with crossfader to that channel.

    Then just do all your internal mixing on your "Numark Stealth - Kontrol X1 - Akai LPD8 - APC20 - Novation Launchpad - Numark Mixdeck"

    IMO You are still going to need 4 channel faders to properly mix in and out your sample decks and your track deck.

    well i can easily have that setup going, its what ive been using. but i just switched back to the mixdeck and am enjoying the cdj-ish-ness of it, so i wanted to maintain that but still be able to use sample decks

    I owned one for a bit. Its very plasticky, the knobs have plastic bases that wobble.

    As for the Firewire-to-USB adapter.. It won't work. I tried :/
    I also spoke with Stanton about it and they also said it won't work.

    ? Use that kickass stanton mixer that can detach controls from controlling audio when channel strips are switched to midi mode?

    I too am disappointed about the lack of anything-FW conversion. My Firebox is alone.
