Thanks for this. I stopped DJing 20 years ago and just recently pulled my 1210s and Vestax mixer out of the garage for my daughters to enjoy. I've been acutely aware how DJing has progressed but never thought I'd be able to afford new equipment, let alone understand how it all works. Now I can move into 2022 with my 1989 1210s 👍

What about micro pitch movements with vinyl, when doing long mixes in house music and you need it perfect. Sometimes on my Technics I just have to move the pitch half a millimetre to get it perfectly matched for a long mix. Does Serato pick up those small micro movements on the pitch? Every tutorial I see they just make large movements on the pitch up and down just to show Seraao tracking the pitch

Purely from a Bedroom DJ poirt I aiming to combine both decks and a controller as my digital collection is increasing, but I want to relive my old bedroom DJ days and play vinyl. Plus there are some tracks I cannot get hold of. So thank you for shedding a great deal of light of what I can achieve.

Hello Phil! Congrats on your video! Just a question / clarification by myside. Let's say that apart from the 2 turntables , I want to add in my set up 2 Pioneer CDJs devices (models that belong to the Serato Official Accesory category). Will these 2 extra CDjs be displayed in Serato DJ Pro or do I need : a) Rane SL4 and b) 4-channel mixer (like Pioneer DJM-600) in order to succeed that? I want to be able to use all of them silmunaneously. Thank you in advance for your feedback. Greetings from Athens, Greece

Obviously you need a four-channel mixer if you want two turntable and two DVS decks. and yes it'll work fine, you plug the CDJs into the computer via USB and the audio into the mixer as normal.

Evening Phil, I have 3 vinyl turntables and a Pioneer DJM-900NXS mixer that I want to hook up to the Serato software. My questions are: 1. Does the Serato software support 3no. turntables (the images of the software I have seen seem to only show 2no. turntables)? 2. Is my only option the Rane SL3 (the Denon DJ DS1 is made for 2no. turntables only)? Thanks!
@digitaldjtips
@digitaldjtips 2 жыл бұрын
I believe it is only possible to use two turntables with dvs, although you could use say four CDJs with HID. You don’t need a separate audio interface though, your mixer has one built in that will work with Serato and its Club Kit ExpansionPack.

One thing to keep in mind is compatibility. Some gear is no longer supported by Serato and you have to use older versions of the software. Also, that older software may not be compatible for your laptop's OS. I am currently using an older MacBook Pro but the USB bus is too slow and sometimes causes the audio to skip. I want to use my new laptop but the only versions of Serato I can use on that laptop do not support the Serato Scratch Live that I have. Any advice?

Was looking at the Numark Scratch mixer that comes with DVS integrated, Serato software, and Control Vinyl. That's about £400 and then a laptop too which would cost another £300 I assume (I have a crappy one that just wouldn't be suitable). It's all a bit pricey. Any suggestions on how to do this cheaper and/or on suitable budget laptops? I'm not too fussed either about having all the bells and whistles that come with the Numark Scratch mixer. I just wanna mix, not press buttons. Lol. That's half the reason I gave everything up in the first place. Ps. My old setup is 2 x 1210s and a SoundLab Mixer. TIA.

I'm kind of getting the feeling here that I'm still better off getting a second hand CDJ with USB support and adding that to my traditional setup :) Also translates a little better experience-wise when you're playing something where there are both decks (becoming a rarity) and CDJs or just CDJs. You can't just bring that stuff and rig it up on the spot, depending on where you play, plus, you might not want it. So I'm sort of leaning towards get a decent second hand CDJ and ram it into the line in of one of the channels of your 2 channel (if you have a 2 channel HAK 360 for ex. like I do).

Yes this is very much aimed at older DJs who want to give digital a go, easy to setup at home and forget about it

This is the wrong video for that, it's about turning the gear you've already got into a DVS setup (hence the title) :) What's your budget? Cheap and DVS don't really go together (imo) if you don't already have the gear

I was going to get a Denon or Rane Serato box. But while I was saving for it my dad took the families laptop to be fixed & for some reason he told the guy to delete everything from the hard drive! I had thousands of songs downloaded from iTunes, now they’re gone down the Swanee! And since I’m not very technically minded I didn’t have any of them backed up (still don’t even know how to do that). Now I’m saving for a laptop of my own so I can start from scratch. This all happened months ago & I’m still fuming about it 😠

*Niels de Wit* apparently there was a ‘hidden’ feature on that mixer. If you turned the low eq down, the high acted like a high & low pass filter, the likes of which are found on today’s’ mixers!
