WAX to MP3
The vinyl technology has been designed with new levels of analog to digital conversion that secures the bridge with confident reliability. Unlike other systems which employ "timecode" on vinyl, PCDJ Scratch vinyl records contain specially modulated physical location stamps. As the needle traces the groove, PCDJ Scratch software is able to listen to the sound coming from the turntable and tell instantly the physical position of the needle on the surface of the record. These multiple channel location stamps make sure the communication between the vinyl and the PC is double accurate and correct. What this means is if your vinyl starts wearing there is a failsafe in place to make sure you don't skip a beat.
Latency
There are approximately 155 totally unique physical position stamps per rotation of the record. To give you an idea of the latency, this means that PCDJ Scratch software reads a new physical position stamp every 12 milliseconds when the record is played at 33-1/3 rpm. The audio's frequency is actually changed as low as 3 milliseconds.
