Description: Serato DJ is a product aimed at both professionals and beginner DJs. The program supports sound effects such as Delay, Reverb, Flanger, Echo, PingPong Delay, Phaser, Distortion, High and Low Pass Filter, as well as their combinations. Full MIDI support, implemented in the program, makes it possible to adapt the controller and the program to suit any needs. The graphical interface of the application is simple and easy to use. It allows you to use two to four decks simultaneously. Serato DJ software supports an impressive number of CUE points, up to eight.
Mixes can also be recorded using Serato DJ. Loops are available in three types – Manual, Auto and Loop Rolls, and support for auto-sync and auto-tempo will create softer transitions. Using these functions will also reduce the time it takes to adjust the tempo. The file manager supports work with regular and smart charts, as well as playlists. The connection is made according to the Plug & Play principle, which entails a significant reduction in setup time. Serato DJ also supports spectacular audio rendering through Waveforms technology. The program integrates support for ITCH, DJ Intro, Scratch Live and iTunes Music libraries. As an add-on, Serato DJ supports the Serato Video plug-in.
The main feature of Serato DJ Pro 2 is the Practice Mode, which lets you mix two tracks together without connecting to hardware. According to the developers, the mode will help DJs test their set anywhere, even if they don’t have a controller at hand. In addition to the new mode, the Serato DJ 2.0 update adds a new “Performance” interface to the program, which displays control points in a more understandable way.
Serato DJ Pro comes as a 64-bit application, and Serato claims that now the size of the library is virtually unlimited and depends only on the size of the computer’s hard disk. The program interface is optimized for high definition displays, including 4K, UHD and Retina displays.
The developers also added a new help section to the program with a lot of tips, keyboard shortcuts, tutorials and the ability to contact the technical support team and discuss any questions right in the program window.
