D-Beam Turntable Scratching in FL Studio

[METAFYZIKAL]

For those of you who like integrating SP and software, particularly FL Studio, I have an interesting trick for you.

First, obviously, you will need the drivers for the 606 installed, as well as a copy of FL Studio. You will then have to enable the 606 as a controller (Options-MIDI Setting or press F10). On the 606, hit "EXT" and "v-link" so they are both lit. Now select the "mixer" interface and select "Fruity Scratcher" as an insert effect. The turntable interface should pop up. Click the "plug" at the top left and select "Link all Parameters". The first parameter, "wave position" should appear. Move your hand past the D-beam; hand movements will now imitate moving the "vinyl". All other parameters can be customized (note: if you want a pad to control the mute function, for example, make sure you are in note trigger mode [FUNC+pad 5]). If you have done it right, your sp is now a turntable, which makes for a hell of a live show!!!

Great info man, this basically should work with the sp-555 also I think!

I'm sure it will; I have the same functionality on my juno-d synth, which has D-beam.
