One reason is that the scratch panel contains the RST button this is the button you need to calibrate your decks with. If you are spinning with timecode then you should display the scratch panels for two reasons. Part 2 (to be published Friday) explains what’s inside the timecode signal and how Traktor extracts the contained information to control the deck playback.

This article covers the practical aspects and explains how to use the calibration feature to detect, analyze and solve timecode problems. The magic of using timecode to control Traktor results from the interplay between the timcode decoder inside Traktor and the data format on the timecode media. In this article Ranier, the author of the Traktor bible, will show you how to correctly identify almost all possible timecode problems. For this reason I personally prefer the reliability of midi but turntable lovers must be able to diagnose timecode problems quickly and accurately. Its not uncommon to show up to a club and find one turntable is barely working with only a few minutes to trouble shoot before your set. DVS systems like serato and traktor scratch are subject to a wide number of variables including noise interference, cartridge quality and turntable calibration just to name a few.
Timecode records are an amazing technology but sometimes their performance can be a fickle beast.
