Software Setup; Hardware; Playback - Numark NS7 Reference Manual

SOFTWARE SETUP

The Setup screen has controls to personalize and maintain your Serato ITCH system. Click the "Setup" button to enter the Setup
screen. From here, you can click to enter any of the following tabs: Hardware, Playback, Library, Display or Mixer.
SOFTWARE VERSION & UPDATES: The version of Serato ITCH software is displayed in the bottom left corner of the Setup screen.
The Check for Updates button will open http://www.serato.com in your web browser to tell you if there are available updates for your
version of the ITCH software.

HARDWARE

Firmware Status / Updater: When the NS7 / V7 is connected to
your computer and your computer is online, this window indicates
whether or not your firmware is current. If there is an available
update, you will be able to click the "Update Firmware" button to
update it. (See the UPDATING THE FIRMWARE section for more
information.)

PLAYBACK

GENERAL:
Playback Keys Use Shift: When checked, all Cue Point, Loop,
and Playback keys on the computer keyboard require Shift or Caps
Lock to function.
Lock Playing Deck: When checked, you can only load a track to
a Deck if it is paused.
USB Buffer Size (Latency): Adjust this virtual fader to set the
buffer size of the USB connection between the hardware (NS7 / V7
/ NSFX) and the software (Serato ITCH). If you are using a slower
computer, increase the buffer size. At a larger buffer size, you
should no longer experience any problems with your audio, but
there may be a slight delay when the software responds to the
hardware.
ON SONG LOAD: These options affect the state of tracks when first loaded to the Deck.
Play from Start: When checked, a newly loaded track will start from the beginning. If this box is unchecked, a newly loaded track
will start from wherever the Audio Pointer was located in the previously loaded track.
Instant Doubles: When checked, this allows you to match the Audio Pointer position of the same track loaded onto both decks.
When you have a track loaded on one Deck, then load the same track on the other Deck, the Audio Pointer will jump to the same
position as the track that was loaded first (its Keylock and Loop settings will also be copied). This setting overrides the "Play from
First Cue Point" option.
Tip: Even if this option is unchecked, pressing the NS7's / V7's LOAD A or LOAD B button twice quickly will load the opposite
Deck's track to that Deck as well, with the Audio Pointer in the same position (the same as "Instant Doubles").
Play from First Cue Point: When checked, all tracks will start from their first Cue Point when loaded.
AUDIO OUTPUT:
Mono / Stereo: Sets the audio output to Stereo or Mono.
