Hi, i'm just posting this thread because I never really got this question answered. Does anyone know if the American Audio CK-1000 has the 100 % pitch range like on the CDI series, and does it have extra LINE inputs, so I can hook up software such as Rane Serato Scratch Live?

yea, the ck-1000's have 100% pitch control and 2 lines for what you need extra...you can also hook up an mp3 or cd burner...

actually, it has 4/8/16% pitch control...

nice simple set...pretty good at the same time...

its not beginner type nore higher expectation type either, it's like right in the middle...

i really enjoy using them...

no on board effects though...thats the only thing...only loop, seamless loop, bop, scratch... jus somethin simple...

All right, so there's no 100% master tempo? Because I saw the Master Tempo button on there, have you tested that out? Also, is there anyway to adjust the cut on the faders for scratching? Which brings me to, how's the scratching? Get at me on MSN: omgitzdjtekno@hotmail.com it's much quicker and I'm thinking of selling my turntables and mixer to get this portable setup, or I might just save up for Pioneer CDJ-800s.

How in the world do I get the American Audio CK-1000 hooked up with Serato Scratch Live ? Normally what I do when setting up the Serato is to run the line output from each CD player into the input from the Serato, and the output from the Serato into the mixer. BIG PROBLEM with the CK-1000 that I've run into is that there is no accessible line out from the CD players that I can into the Serato. Does anyone have a solution for this ?

C-Dub, I am having the same issue. I am currently experimenting with it. I ran the RCA cable from the mixer to the Serato device using the Master Out from the back of the mixer. Trouble is there is only one line out. This got me a signal but only for one channel (as you are looking at the computer screen). I figure that if I get a four-way rca cable and run it from the Master Out and plug into the two inputs on the Serato device, hopefully that will give me two signals??? I don't know, I am going to Radio Shack after work today to see if they have a four-way rca cable. I called the pro-dj shop where I bought CK-1000 and the Serato Scratch Live and asked them. The tech guy said that they aren't compatible. If that is the case, I will probably try to sell my CK 1000 and get a multiple component set. I will let you know how it goes.

Hey, does anyone else get a loud humm when they plug in a ipod or other mp3 player to the aux jack at the top of the ck-1000?

I tried my fix with negative results. Wasn't able to get a signal. My dilema now after spending $500 for the Serato system is do I sell it or sell the CK 1000 and upgrade to a system that is adaptable with the Serato?

I just purchased this unit and a few thing right off the back I noticed.

I can not find where the Auto BPM is, when I tap the BPM button I see the BPM's but shuts off quickly. I thought that it would read the BPM's like the Beatkeeper does. I can't even hook up my Beatkeeper because there are no line outputs from each cd player.

Am I doing something wrong?
