2.3Connecting to the SCS.1d
All of the SCS.1 controllers have two FireWire ports on them, so devices can be chained together if needed. So when connecting a single SCS.1d to the SCS.1m, you would go from the unused FireWire port on the SCS.1m (Figure 2.5), (the other port is connected to your computer) to an open port on the SCS.1d. (Figure 2.6)
Figure 2.5 | Figure 2.6 |
Likewise, if you’re connecting two SCS.1ds to a SCS.1m, then you would go from the free FireWire port on the first SCS.1d to a port on the second. Any other FireWire devices should go at the end of the chain and not before any of the SCS.1 controllers.
Let’s take a look of the SCS.1m Setups.

SCS.1m + Traditional Turntable
The SCS.1m mixer can be incorporated into Digital Vinyl Systems (DVS) that support MIDI control by running the time code into a sound card and using the SCS.1m’s
