Great Video. I wasnt familiar with this effect in Serato and I love the way it works. Its nice when you see an effect that works the way you envisioned it should in your mind. I see so many great ways to incorporate it into a set.

Thanks for this fantastic tutorial. I have a Vestax VCI-380 controller and Serato DJ but when I use the slicer I only add a few extra snares or kicks. I didn't know what else to do with it for Deep House and Nu Disco until now.

Kevin Loftus The Vci 380 it's pretty dope the only people that started having many problems with the platter because you can adjust it but after around the platter is hard it to get at adjust once is 3 or 4 months, many friends of mine they love the piece but after they had the problem, that's why I think they don't make it anymore

trust me.. you dont want to do that. traktor is still years ahead of serato in terms of effects and mapability. I have serato hardware and i have it all mapped for use with traktor.. Plus don't forget that traktor has the remix decks and the sp6 sampler on serato is a lame excuse for a sampler.

I don't understand what the purpose is of holding down the "silent slice button" while your doing the drum hits. Anyone know?

@jaredfox892 9 жыл бұрын

Zack Hutchinson Hard to explain... but Serato wont let you use the slice mode if the song isn't playing. If you don't have a silent part of the slice, then you will hear the song - Which will overlap the song playing on the other deck. --- So by having a silent part, you can still slice up a song, without using the cross fader to go back and forth between decks. Lol, sorry if this seems confusing. Hard to explain.

@funkdoc14 9 жыл бұрын

Actually, that explanation was perfect and after reading this and playing around a bit with the slicer, I know EXACTLY what u are saying. Thank you for taking the time to respond.

@Psythik 8 жыл бұрын

+GreY tZu The audio is being sent digitally via USB. Windows/OSX treats the controller's audio interface just like any other USB sound card. All you have to do is use something like Audacity to record and set the controller as your recording source. No analog outputs required. I stream my mixes live and that's how I do it. If you look at the back of my NS7 II the only cables hooked up are power and USB. My controller shows up as "Numark NS7 II Audio" under Sound in the Control Panel, just like any other sound card.
