On todays show I discuss the biggest news of the year Serato was sold to Rekordbox and what this means to the dj community
Pioneer DJ’s hardware controllers have long been compatible with Serato’s software, so the acquisition certainly makes sense. Serato also develops several pieces of music production software: Studio, Sample and Pitch ‘n Time.
Commenting on the news, Yoshinori Kataoka, President and CEO of AlphaTheta, said: "I am delighted to announce the acquisition of Serato. Through extensive discussions within our company and with Serato's management team, we have been exploring new ways to contribute to the industry. Bringing Serato into the AlphaTheta Group will lead to new synergies and significant technological innovations, adding continued value to the community."
Young Ly, CEO of Serato, added: "Serato has enjoyed a 25 year history of success that is driven by a single-minded focus on serving DJs, producers and artists. We are incredibly proud of both the strength of our business as well as the community that surrounds our brand. Today, we are excited to deepen our long-standing partnership with AlphaTheta, accelerating how we create value for our users and the industry.”
AlphaTheta now owns all of Serato’s shares, but says that the company - which is based in Auckland, New Zealand - will continue to operate as a separate brand.

They honestly might have just wanted STEMS from Serato and to capture their cash flow. It's totally possible that they let Serato continue to be Serato. Pioneer mostly seems to be trending towards standalone CDJ / USB workflow to use for the EDM and Festival crowd. A lot of Techno is done with Traktor and MIDI controllers, using Xone 96's anyway. And that market isn't complaining about flexible beat grids... In other news, you can spin House with anything. Enhance Rekordbox for what they consider niche "Open Format" and Turntablism? Not sure that makes business sense. Weddings? buy an all in one. The market is segmented and although this might seem like a power move on the surface, it just might be a pragmatic cash flow move, so Pioneer can continue to fund development and cement their position as the "One stop shop" Time will tell 🙂

@DJKeo made some awesome points. If you are a Serato user, you might want to listen. I know been in the business world that there is no way Serato is under AphaThea (Pioneer's parent company) will continue to support third-party DJ hardware companies. Pioneer DJ will integrate Serato into the Rekordbox DJ system and it's a wrap. I am already seeing videos of DJs under Serato's bellyaching and butt hurt because the big bad Pioneer now owns their beloved software. Do you know who is not worried about this move? Pioneer DJ/Rekordbox users like myself and Denon/Numark (companies owned by InMuisc). I know for certain InMusic saw the writing on the way and is in the works to make Engine DJ a fully functional DJ software. Will they plan to offer license to other DJ hardware companies to replace Serato? That's a possibility or they can just keep it in House. We will have to see how this pans out but again as a Pioneer/RB user, it's a win!!

There is a looong way to go before the actual Dj World makes a complete transition over to any other software than Serato Dj Pro. It's the only software found in almost every Big Dj line up across the world. Many djs use Engine, Tracktor, VDJ, ADjay, or whatever for their personal sets, but use Serato Dj for continuity in big lineups. This is mostly for small & solo acts, and it doesn't matter what you rock on. If I'm the only one in the line up I can use Sl1200s with actual vinyl. A bit harder to do in a Big Line up where working together is critically important.

It's pretty clear that the ONLY reason inmusic hadn't released engine prime as a stand alone version was to avoid pissing off Serato. They don't have to worry about that anymore. Lol Your final question - about locking down the market - that's pretty much was traktor tried and failed. And destroyed their #1 position in software. But their hardware stake was less than ideal. Pioneer is now holding #1 hardware and software. They won't have the same issues. So I have to moved from traktor to vdj after a nearly disastrous gig in Florida this year. I appreciate vdj, but am not really a fan. I would purchase a copy of engine to run on my system. Immediately. Without reservation. I know everyone "knows" this is bad news. But as you pointed out years ago, the writing was on the wall when rekordbox 1.0 was released. It was also clear what inmusic was doing when they released the sc5000 x1800. These are the very definition of "exciting times" applied to the world of DJ and musical entertainment. Cool stuff comes from such times. I'm anxious to see what's next.

Thanks for the video @DJ Keo, great insight. The support may be gone in 2 years but the software should work since it's downloaded to your laptop...like Serato Live, support was gone but it worked until the transition to DJ. I would keep the last version of Serato DJ, don't let your computer update and continue to use Serato DJ until InMusic gets that Engine working, flawlessly with InMusic equipment and other manufacturer's except Pio. VDJ may be next to be scoped up...in the meantime, will Serato loyalist make the jump to RekordBox, maybe, it would seem the logical move...time will tell. I do believe, like you, there needs to be some healthy competition in this space. Is Pioneer becoming SkyNet, terminating all the competition or the Borg....either way, it's bad.

If you own both companies where is the competition there is NONE. this is the reality of Coach HERM EDWARD'S statement "THIS IS THE GREAT THING ABOUT SPORTS. YOU PLAY TO WIN THE GAME. HELLO. YOU PLAY TO WIN THE GAME, YOU DON'T PLAY TO JUST PLAY. And my friend that is what Pioneer aka Pioneer DJ did. It doesn't matter which one you choose Pioneer WINS. That's why, once I realized who created CDJs, I chose Rekordbox over any other software. Most clubs have Pioneer equipment and all the features on their equipment works with Rekordbox. So as long as some of public still chooses Serato they will keep Serato. And as long as you have fake DJs not taking the time to learn manually there will still be a need for the software. not that I don't use the software but I'm 67 years old and I was in the clubs from 76 and start DJing in 74. So I started with vinyl and used three Technic 1600 turntables and back then there was no software

Serato is still the king. Nobody likes Engine Prime and Rekordbox is buggy and whack. Traktor… 😂 Now, The fact that the same company who owns Pioneer also owns Serato just means that there is a possibility of Serato becoming much much more stronger. As of now, they are saying that Serato will remain its own thing.

I get what you are saying but I doubt that pioneer bought serato to keep the status quo, they got the company for a reason and it’s not to share space. serato will eventually fold into rekordbox it is inevitable

@@DJKeo per their statement, Serato is going to remain a separate brand/entity for now anyways. They are also still going to service their competitors, such as Rane and such. Pioneer knows that’s Rekordbox is not as strong as Serato, yes, one day it will most likely merge into one software but I’m telling you, Serato isn’t going anywhere, it’s just going to get stronger.

I think pioneer don’t like competition in my opinion they so selfish. But I think that other company like Denon,numark,rane and reloop will find the way to create their own software and I will go even more far they should join and fight back. Union make the power 💪💪💪
