I've never heard the term, what is a scratch amp?

Sounds like a scratch plug in for Winamp if I had to guess.

What ScratchAmp is? Is the soundcard (dual) that is shipped with Finalscratch v1.0 & v1.5
I have a ScratchAmp, haven't tested with VDJ. I do think it will work, but NOT as good as MAYA 44USB, why? ScratchAmp don't have ASIO so you will have as bad performace (high latency) as a scrappy soundblaster card!
Fact is that my VDJ with MAYA44 USB works better than my FS 1.5 (with scratchAmp) onthe same laptop, specialy notiseble if you do a backspinn, FS have problem, VDJ gives me a nice realistic backspin.
I don't use FS any more, I'm now stuck with VDJ (in vinyl mode...)

Ken,
I use a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum with my TCVs with 2ms in ASIO mode. I don't was able to buy in Mexico the Maya 44 USB.

Yes I am talking about the ScratchAmp for Final Scratch but I'm wondering if anyone is using the ScratchAmp 2 that comes with Final Scratch 2. I've had a problem with it and trying to see if anyone else is having the same problems.

acw_dj, how do you get 2ms on a SB card in ASIO? What drivers do you use? How poerfull is your computer?

I think that 2ms theoreticaly speaking is for now impossible for an asio2 card, imagine for an audigy card....
Now as for the practical part with maya44 in asio2 mode and low latency you can get a total of +12ms latency (Card+s/w) which is quite unnoticable.

Ken,
I set my ASIO Config in VDJ to my Audigy2 and in there I have many options. I can go from 50ms to 2ms. I select 2ms and click OK. I have it in this configuration since then.
My computer is a P4 540 (3.2GHz with HT, FSB 800, 1MB Cache) with 1.5GB RAM DDR2 533MHz working in dual channel. This is in an Intel motherboard (915GUX) and I plan to go for a 955X motherboard. My hard disk are SATA (80MB, 160MB, 300MB) and an external 160GB HD. My Video Card is an ATI X600 with 256MB.
By the way, I spend $189 in my soundcard (Audigy 2 ZS Platinum).

I use the ASIO drivers that came with my soundcard.
I look the new product of creative. The specifications of X-Fi are impressive, What you think?:

OK I get it, but I did't know that SoundBlaster hade a true ASIO soundcard. I know there is simulated ASIO drivers for SB card, but that gives not 2ms latency...
XFi cards look intresting, but I need USB for my laptop so I stay with my MAYA 44USB for now.

The maya is just fine. It is not made it anymore (since JUN2005), it's a waste. Now The new soundcard by this korean fabricant is ESI U46DJ http://www.esi-pro.com/viewProduct.php?pid=60&page=1. Is more expensive (doubles the Maya 44 USB price) but still the cheaper solution for USB.
You have the nicest soundcard for TCVs (or TCCDs) for a notebook. (And cheaper too).
