Numark Scratch Thru Mode Toggle

DJ Hardware

  • Device model (e.g. 2020 iPad Air 4th Gen): MacBook Pro 2021 M1 Pro
  • Version of operating system (e.g. macOS 14.4.1): 15.4.1
  • Version of djay (e.g. 5.1.2): 5.3.1
  • Hardware/controllers used (e.g. Reloop Mixon 8 Pro): Numark Scratch + Phase + 1210

I’ve always used Serato, but moved over to Djay Pro with news of Thru mode and HID support for Phase.

However one thing that Serato does if the line/phono switch automatically switches from WIR to THRU mode. Numark Scratch is a Serato mixer, so maybe they have direct access to this control? It doesn’t seem to appear in midi mapping. Which means you need to change it in software as well as in hardware (which is a bit fiddly). Is this just a limitation we’ll need to live with?

Hi @andybarnes, thanks for the detailed info. I checked with our engineering team and this is working as intended.

  1. Switching the Numark Scratch from PC to LINE/PHONO does the THRU inside the mixer hardware and doesn’t require any additional action in djay.
  2. The THRU mode in djay is only required for mixers/interfaces that don’t have such a switch on the hardware panel.
  3. Please just ignore the THRU in djay and solely switch it on the mixer and let us know if that solves your issue.

Awesome, thank you. I’m not sure why I was getting so hung up about it showing up in the UI like Serato does. Guess I’m just institutionalised!
