TIP: F5 and F10 will turn Key Lock on and off for the left and right decks respectively. Feb 02, 2017 “Live” projects. When you create a project, there should be an option to make it a live project. When it is clicked, it will reload and show you the “scratch live” version of the interface. It is exactly the same, but with a green border, and on the top right or all along the bottom it will show you the people spectating the project.
Slip Mode is a feature that when turned on, enables you to manipulate the playhead of the selected track (Scratching, looping, enabling cues etc) and once finished the track will return to where it would have been if you had not done anything.
This feature enables you to get creative without losing the position of the track and crashing the mix, simply adding another dimension to your music or hyping up a track before the drop without losing the position.
Slip Mode is easy to enable and use, simply click the Slip Mode icon on the right hand side of the virtual deck if your controller doesn't have this feature built in and you are ready to Slip.
