The 12" vinyl record has the Serato NoiseMap™ control tone which allows Serato DJ or Scratch Live to track the motion of the record, simulating the same movement with digital audio. Since vinyl wears out with use, it is smart to have a couple spare records with you before any show. This new v2.5 pressing features a control tone 6 dB louder than all previous Rane control vinyl, fully compatible with both Serato DJ and Scratch Live.
