Here are the pre release details for the revolutionary HAK380 from Ecler, which will be available June! One of its unique selling points is the SCRATCH CUE. The Scratch Cue is a smart microprocessor driven feature that allows performing with the crossfader in your headphones before doing it live.
Therefore you can practice scratching and adjust crossfader shapes and cut in on the headphones alone. To activate this feature you press Scratch Cue and go to one of the extremes of the crossfader. The crossfader is then bypassed: you hear it in your headphones but the signal doesn’t go to the Master Out.
The smart crossfader is driven by a microprocessor that memorizes the extreme of the crossfader where you activated this feature and won’t deactivate it until you reach it back (all the process is assisted by a led flashing green, amber or red). This way you ensure that the crossfader goes back to normal mode in the same physical position as when activated and avoid the othr channel signal cutting in suddenly if you leave the crossfader in the middle by mistake.
