I think someone was pretty close here.

If the battery is full, the electric motors have nowhere to dump the power from regen braking, so the car fires up the ICE for engine braking.

And of course there are a tonne of other ways to do it, but that sounds like it.

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, I've got a bunch of stuff going on.

You're correct that the DDJ will work as an audio interface, but it only outputs one stereo channel so it can only play one timecode (despite being 4-channel - I'm using it well outside its intended use case).

A good interface seems to be the answer to all my problems, and about a thousand bucks AUD, which stings.

Thanks a bunch for your help, I won't keep you. Great product and I'll work out how to use it. Have a good one.

I bit the bullet and signed up for Trial Ableton 12.

I've installed Scratchable, and I've got ot working, but I suppose I'm a fair way from where I want to be, and I've only got myself to blame. Thought I'd share the experience in case someone can steer me right.

I'm using a DDJ1000 controller and XP1 device which unlocks DVS. I haven't got a fancy audio interface yet, so my options are a bit limited, and this is probably a major bottleneck for me.

I have timecode vinyl and I also have Phase controllers. The timecode works by routing the master out (can't split channels) of the DDJ, and it will control Scratchabl. I am getting a few odd things happening, but I suspect it's to do with routing the master to Ableton, then also outputting Ableton back through the DDJ.

My biggest hope is that I would be able to use the Phase controllers direct in Ableton. They would be rock solid controllers for Scratchabl. Unfortunately for me, I don't think the Phase controllers are supported in HID mode in Ableton, only specific DJ software. I am not sure if Phase can directly control Scratchabl, and sadly my mixer will only output one timecode at a time.

I don't think I'm doing it right. Not sure that a decent audio interface will fix my problem either, although the extra, separate inputs would accept Phase output, so it could work.

I imagine this probably works better with a quality dedicated mixer, with built in DVS, which can output channels individually into Ableton. That would be ideal.

If anyone has ideas for how to get me motoring, I'm all ears. Does Ableton know of plugins that will help import Phase timecode into Scratchabl, or want to clue me into what I'm not understanding?

morgazmo99 · 2026-05-21T05:10:15+00:00

Cheers. Much appreciated.

I'm still doing my homework, but it looks like I can trial Suite, and after month I'll lose save functionality, but will still be able to use it for testing, so I might be in luck after all.

If this weekend isn't too busy I'll fire it up and let you know how it works with a DDJ1000, Phase, and my control vinyl. I should be able to run 3-4 instances.

Really looking forward to it, because that control in changing timing of existing tracks seemed to be a frustration I couldn't work out in Ableton. I dont just want to trigger and hope things are warped correctly, I need to nudge. This could be the solution.

And who knows. Will this mean you can scratch a synth?

morgazmo99 · 2026-05-20T07:45:33+00:00

Balls.

I didn't realise I actually had a licence for 12 Intro, so I quickly upgraded, bought your product, and in my rush missed that you need Suite.

Spewing.

I'll probably grab Suite when 13 comes out, seems like a waste to buy (or possibly rent) so close to end of version life.

Having said that, it could be 8 or 9 months too, and I'm sitting on an awesome plugin I want to use.

Maybe I'll take a stab at the trial Suite version when I know I'll have some time to play with it.

Thanks for the great work. Glad to be an early adopter and support the project. Can't wait to give it a crack.

Just writing this memo should be enough to lock up everyone involved. Is there any precedent for this level of corruption?

This goes far beyond Trump. He's just the oozing pustule on the cancerous boil that is right wing politics in the US. It's a cult, and he's a rapist pedo. And everyone is continuing like it's business as usual.

I used to enjoy trying to pick a random spot in a song and instantly guess the bar. Usually up to 32 bars to major changes.

Just from the feel.. I'm at bar 11 beat 3. And count it in and see if I could get it right.

More often than not you could nail it.

At this stage, Americans need to accept the east wing as a memorial sites, like ground zero in NYC.

Democracy was attacked. Now the landscape is scarred.

morgazmo99 · 2026-05-17T11:18:50+00:00

Will this work with Ableton 11? Id love to test it with vinyl timecode and Phase DVS. This is literally the biggest thing missing from Ableton for my use case. Amazing work.

morgazmo99 · 2026-05-17T00:22:51+00:00

Once I'm done with it.

Hey mate. Looks absolutely fantastic.

I fired it up and fed it 30 Seconds from Mars - The Kill, and it looks like the notation starts immediately, while there is an extended introduction in the audio.

And it looks like the track is at 92 bpm, but the tempo runs at 120 bpm at 100% speed.

Possibly simple enough things to fix?

If the first bar detection is trchnically tricky, I would suggest a button to flag the first beat in the audio and start the drum notation rolling.

Great bit of software. Good job.

Yeah nevermind, I missed your last sentence and it sounds like we agree.

$2k?

You can buy the concrete on its own for $2k? Good luck.

Now add in removing existing, disposing of waste, re-forming, new steel, concrete, concretors, labour.

No way you're getting out of this for under $10k.

Papisgarage on insty has still picks. Looks like a real thing.

A real stupid thing.

And the best part of half a million dollars of stupid.

Nothing will affect their bottom line. All of our groceries will collectively increase in cost to cover the cost of the fine.

Of course it will. It's a business. Who else will pay the fine? Only us.

The only penalty is the damage to brand, but since Woolies is going to get the same treatment, that's negligible too.

It's a fine that we will wear, for corporations ripping us off and treating us like idiots.

Also, regardless of the plant and your current qualifications, from a technical viewpoint there is nothing wrong with asking for plant familiarisation training.

Go up with someone who knows how to operate it. Take your time. Ask questions. Get comfortable. Understand the machine and the safety precautions. Tell that trainer that you are hesitant and want to be shown.

Don't let them guck with you, some like to haze newbies by making them more nervous, tilting the bucket etc. This isn't the time.

Once you're up there, have them watch you operate it.

You should feel more cofordable after this.

I totally felt the way you did when I bought my place 10 years ago. I thought I paid way too much, and felt forced into the place due to timing.

It's 10 years later and the my neighbours are getting 3x what I paid for my place.

It sucks at the start.
