STANTON PREMIERES
NEW FINAL SCRATCH CD ADAPTOR KIT
-- New System
Allows Any CD Player to Work with Final Scratch System --
LOS ANGELES,
JANUARY 16, 2003 - Stanton is proud to announce the introduction of
the Final Scratch CD Adaptor Kit. This new system converts any CD
deck into a Final Scratch-compatible player, opening up a whole new
world of hard-disk based mixing and scratching to CD jocks, much the
way Final Scratch has done for vinyl DJs.
The Final Scratch
CD Adaptor Kit works via a special switch box and two time-coded CDs
that are over 60 minutes in length. Once a DJ places the special CDs
into his CD players and connects the switch box, he can mix and
scratch various types of audio files from a connected Mac or PC,
completely eliminating the need to carry CDs to gigs. The FS CD
Adaptor Kit also allows for scratching, seamless loops and hot starts.
The Final Scratch
CD Adaptor Kit gives CD jocks the exact same power as their vinyl
Final Scratch bretheren, including the retrieval of any and all
standard audio files from a computer hard drive, including MP3, WAV
and AIFF.
It allows easily
searching and assigning of music to either (or both) CD decks, and
provides a visual representation of the music with exact markers.
Virtual Record Boxes with an improved Search function allow for easy
arrangement and sorting of music. And integrated track mixing and
track organization further enhance this impressive package.
MSRP: $99.00
