•
Default Loop Size: This setting determines the default size of an auto loop when you load a new
track to the deck: 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16 beats.
•
Smart Loops: This setting determines whether or not a manual loop will be automatically expanded
or reduced to a conventional length (e.g., 2 beats, 4 beats, 8 beats, etc.) when you set it. Select On
or Off. This setting works independently of the quantization setting.
•
Time Format: This setting determines whether or not pitch adjustment affects how the track time is
displayed. When set to Static, the track's time corresponds to locations in the track as usual;
adjusting the pitch does not affect it. When set to Dynamic, the track's time will automatically adjust
to account for changes in pitch. For instance, if you set the pitch fader to -8%, the track time will
increase so it is 8% longer.
•
Track End Warning: This setting determines how long before the end of a track SC5000 will warn
you that it is nearing the end. If the track is on the currently selected layer, the platter ring and track
overview will flash. If the track is on the opposite layer, the Layer button will flash.
•
Lock Playing Deck: This setting determines whether or not you will be able to load a track to the
deck as it is playing. Select On or Off. When this setting is on, the deck must be paused in order to
load a track to it.
•
Needle Lock: This setting determines whether or not you can tap the track overview in the display to
jump to that location in the track during playback. Select On or Off. You can use the track overview
while playback is stopped regardless of this setting. Alternatively, make sure the platter is in Vinyl Mode
(press Vinyl so it is lit), touch the top of the platter, and tap the desired location in the track overview.
•
Pad Lock: This setting determines whether the pads and pad mode buttons (Hot Cue, Loop, Roll,
Slicer) are enabled or disabled. Select On or Off.
•
Key Notation: This setting determines how the track key is notated in the display. You can view the
key as all Sharps, all Flats, Open Key, or Camelot.
•
Key Filter: This setting determines whether the Key filter shows tracks with the same key only
(Match) or tracks with compatible keys (Compatible).
•
BPM Range: This setting determines the lowest- and highest-possible BPM values that will be used
when tracks are analyzed: 58–115, 68–135, 75–155, or 88–175 BPM.
•
BPM Filter Tolerance: This setting determines the "tolerance" of the BPM filter so you can include
tracks with tempos that are within a small range of the selected tempo. Select +0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, or 15.
•
Show Only File Name: This setting determines if you will view tracks by their file names instead of
by their metadata (tags). Select On or Off.
•
Deck Layer Colors: These settings determine the colors of the light ring around the platter for each
layer on each player. Tap the arrow next to A or B to select the layer, and then tap a color to select
it. The light ring will change color immediately. Tap the X to return to the previous screen.
