anyone using timecode with the S4??
Hi all just wondering if anyone is using timecode with the S4?
Im thinking i want to get some vinyl but would love feed back before i get it 
By vinyl, I assume you mean the timecode vinyls? Thereās no point in buying any records on vinyl if youāre using timecodeā¦
oops i mean timecode 
Yes, whats the deal with the timecode and s4? I was looking for a video but didnt find anything. I love my turntables, but i dont have the space for them always. Especially if iam dj-ing in other city or a small bar. Then the S4 is perfect. Iam thinking about getting the S4 but i have to be sure that i can use my turntables when i want.
Timecode allows you to plug in your turntables or CDJs into the S4.
Then you use the s4 as the mixer and effects etc..
Not entirely correct. You can plug your turntables or CDJ"s into the S4 now. With out timecode though youāll just be limited to playing regular vinyl or CDās. Time code allows you to play the special CD or record and manipulate MP3ās with said control vinyl.
HID also works for CDJsā¦better than timecode from what ive read, timecode is really only necessary for turntables now because there is no HID obviously and you need the control vinyl.
Someone correct me if im wrong.
im using time code
using timecode with two stanton tables, its great! everything i could ask for very responsive only complaint is mic plugged in cancles out deck d timecode. any other questions about it id be happy to ask. might post a video soon!
Thatās running the mic through the Aux input?
nope running mic through the 1/4 in the back, it cancels out the rcaās for the table in deck d for some reason it like over rides them
Sounds alot smarter when you say it
Iāve played around with HID just didnt have that āCDJā feel as compared to timecode. Looks like ill be saving up for some vinyls
So just to be clearā¦
You can used timecode vinyl with the S4? If thats true, Iām buying one tomorrow.
I gotta say, I, personally, really like to use controllers with rotating platters (Numarks NS7, Denon) I just like the opportunity to swap to the controller platters if things get rough (needle jumps, etc).
Yes you can, you need the SCRATCH version of the software though
Would love to see some videos of people using the S4 with timecode option.
Just to get a idea of how well it works etc.. thanks
the thing is you cant always get tracks digitally, some are only exclusive to vinyl.
If only a vinyl release then buy it, burn a wav/flac etc and keep or sell it back on. Job done.
Does anyone know if there would be a sound quality difference running timecode through the S4 as opposed to running it through just a regular 4-channel mixer?
