Today is a brand new day and the Stanton SCS.1 system is now completely updated and one is on its way to me as we speak for a Complete Video Review. Details, Video, and Press Release Inside.

For the past few years since the Stanton SCS.1 system has been on the market, I have been receiving countless numbers of requests and inquiries regarding reviews and overall product information on this elusive controller setup. At the time, I was told that there wasn't any units available for review and reports from around the internet spoke of timing issues and an overall unfinished product by Stanton. Today is a brand new day and the Stanton SCS.1 system is now completely updated and one is on its way to me as we speak for a Complete Video Review. That's right folks... I was promised a complete SCS.1 system consisting of (2) SCS.1d MIDI decks and an SCS.1m MIDI mixer for a complete unboxing video and full video review. I would have posted this news earlier, but I didn't want to introduce this update until I was certain I would get my hands on the system so I could really tell the readers what this deck is capable of. This new update has new presets which allows for better software integration with Traktor Pro and other software, new ASIO driver to support Windows 7, Vista, and XP, DaRouter software (for better scratching), and a new Firmware mapping that makes the SCS more compatible with MIDI software suites.

I can't wait to get my hands on this system and when I do, you will be the FIRST to know... For now, here is a few videos and press release explaining the updates at NAMM 2011.

We have just completed a short video of the unboxing and first impressions of the Stanton SCS.1 Digital DJ System. Our good peeps over at Stanton sent me a set of SCS.1d (decks) and a SCS.1m (mixer) so I could complete a full video review and let everyone know the capabilities of this advanced system. I am working diligently on the full review as we speak and the system will be tested on the new Traktor Pro 2 software setup. Check out the video inside so you can get a quick preview of what is to come.

Stanton has just released a system software update, SC-IX Version 2.0 and a new offline music file analyzer, QuickGrid software for the SCS.4DJ Mixstation. These two updates look to further improve the SCS.4DJ user experience while DJing and preparing music files for performance. Some of the performance updates include increased speed when switching between different on-screen menus, (especially for users with large libraries) and the ability to do the track analysis work offline at high speeds with QuickGrid. Check out the full press release and other upgrades to the SCS.4DJ after the jump.

While I was at the 2012 DJ Expo in Atlantic City, I stumbled by the Stanton DJ Booth and caught wind of an exclusive new update for the popular all-in-one mixstation; the Stanton SCS.4DJ. The SCS.4DJ has a new 3.0 firmware upgrade release that will add some new functions including hot cues and upgrades some other features such as faster performance and better beat-grid and BPM sync options. Check out the rundown video from ProfessorXB after the jump!

The new Stanton SCS.4DJ 3.0 Firmware is now available for free download to all current and future SCS.4DJ owners. We spoke to ProfessorXB from the Stanton Team who breaks down all the new improvements found on the unit. The new improvements are so drastic, that we had to go re-visit and update the review with these findings which greatly improve the usability of the unit. Check out the video, our review update, and the full press release inside.

Stanton DJ, an industry leader in the design and manufacturer of professional audio products for DJs, announces the official release of the SCS.3m, the next installment in their award-winning, SC System 3 series controllers.

The Stanton SCS.4DJ Digital DJ Mixstation can work as a stand-alone unit or as a full out MIDI controller for other popular DJ software on the market.
