SERATO USER! What this Video don't show is 1. make sure you have one of the latest three operating system on your MAC Book as well as the latest SERATO version (this was noticed)! 2. make sure you have the Pioneer driver and Pioneer will also ask for another update driver 2022 !!! As soon as you are ready with this, don't forget you to restart your computer :-) Another thing is, for me the Pioneer XDJ XZ Interface do not work proper enough with the search wheel and you will def need to glance on your Serato list !!! Having only "titles" as information in the Pioneer Interface to select first, is not enough for me. On my machine there is also no information on the center CD display as well.

@rufusgeorge21454 жыл бұрын
@Jayskeelarter Unfortunately, Serato DJ Pro is a laptop only software, it cannot work standalone. That’s why I’d recommend to you the DDJ 1000SRT. You still have screens in the centre of the jog wheels and also, it has way more functionally to Serato features, for example: the pitch play mode. You can’t change the parameter on the controller itself. Hope this helps!

It's literally my spot. I grow up on cdj, dreaming if cdj 1000 and later 2000 and nexus, then switched to the SX 1, loved it and had an happy wedding for 7 years, but I kinda miss my old dream. So it comes the dilemma of DDJ 1000 (witch is literally the sx but more cdj and djm style) or the XZ (stand alone on 2 decks, and big is better sometimes). The thing that bothers me however, is that the XZ, as sexy as it is, it's not up to the competition, and seems just rushed and bad designed. So I'll prob go for the DDJ 1000, rb version cause Serato one is dummy on its own.

If you connect a companion controller like SP1 or XP2 to your laptop, then they can manipulate the Serato FX. So, you could go FX berserk and run both Serato FX _and_ Pioneer HW FX simultaneously. I would, however, recommend against it.:! ;-)

Yes there is a way. You can activate the serato fx to a channel on your computer. But the FX come pre fader. So its coming in hot from serato into the channel . Would be hard to work with.
