I made this video below for the guy who sold it to me, but you should be able to hear the problem:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMx172fp17k
I read through some threads here, and watched a variety of youtube videos, read reviews, read on the stanton forums and site. Here's what I've done:
1. I made sure this thing has the latest firmware,
2. I made sure the torque setting was turned up,
3. Since I have Windows 7 32-bit I loaded the firewire "Legacy" driver to fix that problem, and did the registry fix as well.
4. I also am using a recommended Adaptec Firewire PCMCIA card.
5. My machine is a 2.8 GHz Core 2 Duo T9600 Intell CPU with 4 GB or PC6400 RAM. So everything is way above spec (for what is needed).
6. I am running Virtualdj 7.4
7. I loaded the ASIO driver, stepped through the process of telling it no, I don't have the mixer, but yes I have the deck, and didn't connect the unit to firewire until the install told me to... all went well.
8. I have also installed the latency checker that Stanton mentions, and ran that... no issues found, everything in the green while running VDJ with the scs.1d connected, and running, scratching, whatever... no bandwidth issues to be found.
9. Tried it using my VMS4.1 as the soundcard and mixer, also tried it WITHOUT the VMS4.1, using internal sound, also tried it with just a native Instruments Audio DJ 2 and the scs.1d deck. All with the same results. The scs.1d worked every time, but with the same issue.
10. also downloaded a demo version of Tracktor Pro 2 (30 min trial each start), went to all the hassle of setting up DaRouter for it, setting up the Audio 2 DJ for Tracktor, loading the correct TSI from the DaRouter folder... It seems like Tracktor takes control away from the deck if it doesn't sense you are actively scratching or pitch bending. Works at first, then when I scratch, it starts playing similiar to how VDJ is playing, but oddly it seems a bit faster rather than a bit slow.
- It does seem that if I let it run for about an hour or so, it runs smoother and closer to what it should... close enough in tracktor, that tracktor will take control away from it after a second of the "warbly", until you scratch again... hence, it would probably be reasonably useable in Tracktor once it warmed up... almost normal in VDJ, but not quite... and not good enough.
Anyway, just wondering if there is some magic setting I am missing? Or have I just got a lemon and should send it back? Or is this just the way it runs?

It doesnt seem to be any setting. Most likely its a hardware issue.
Would strongly suggest to contact Stanton. I am sure they will be more helpful than anyone else in this forum.

I'd suggest that nem0nic (Craig Reeves) is the guy you need to talk to.
He works for Behringer now, but he used to be with Stanton and helped develop the SCS products.
He's a registered user here (dunno if he's a regular) and also has a YouTube channel, Twitter etc.

hey i hate to bring bad new but dont try contacting stanton it will just give you a head ake and be a waist of time try re installing the scs firmware and if that doesnt work you should try a different computer and see if it still does the same thing let me know i use a mac and mine run fine.
