Gotta say a big THANKS young man! I've been using Serato for nearly 10 years. Mostly Weddings and corporate events...just using my MacBook and a mixer for simple beat match/crossfades. Just got my first controller (DDJ SX3) and am really getting into the musical art of DJing. Have never really had the time to go through all the settings, but stumbled upon your video. 30 minutes with you solved many of my frustrations with the program over the years. Much appreciated. Earned yourself a Like and a "Sub"! 👏 👏 👏

Thank you Mike! I have been DJing since 1979 and while I only do an average of 1 gig a year anymore for friends and family I still enjoy breaking out the gear. I use the same system and while I know only enough about Serato to be dangerous I really enjoyed your video and will apply some of your suggestions. Thank you again for an awesome walk-through!

@djreplay9765 4 жыл бұрын

@@djAXCESSmusic Honestly, whatever you decide to cover is of interest to me. More than the actual topic is the DJ mindset that is delivered. The instruction is only as good as the practice and dedication one puts in. But the mindset lasts much longer. In this particular video, Serato DJ Pro is demystified and goes from being a challenge to a tool and you don't have to tell me that was the purpose...that comes through clearly on its own. One more time...Thank you friend, the challenges we all face today, and whatever the result, time has become important and the time spent working on this activity that I love is time well spent. Be well.

FYI I find sync useful when mixing two tracks that might have a very different tempo such as going from 70 to 100. It'll lock the incoming track and allow you to smoothly change both songs at the same time.

Great educational video bro, my question is how do you adjust the latency on the Pioneer DDJ-SX3, platter? If my finger ever so lightly brush across the platter, it does a musical break, I've tried moving the switch on the front of the unit to the far left and back to the far right, with no success. I would appreciate your help, Thanks in advance!!!

Thanks bro. As a beginner that just bought this srt1000 and had some distorted/breaking noise coming from my speakers which i never had with the sb3, but obviously there were some issues that I wasn't aware of, because the red/yellow light was always flashing in the top right corner. The information you provided about latency was enough to address the noise situation. I still have some yellow and red lights flashing maybe I need to reboot the cpu.

I am on 5th minute and gosh I cant change stop time setting its just not working. Start time is ok I can adjust it with my mouse but the stop time not, hmm... what's the problem, please advise. Thanks man!!!

Really good in depth tutorial! The only thing I didn't see mentioned is the thing that's baffling me most. I've just got Serato so the version is at most 2 months newer than the version used in this tutorial. Everyone (ive watched other tutorials too) seems to have their wavebars (the coloured squiggly bits) running top to bottom and much smaller. Mine run left to right the full screen length. Is it better having them run top to bottom? And is it just drag and drop to move them?

Some my videos are jumpy when playing and when I live stream wanting to know what settings work best with all videos. Also I wanted to know what is the best affordable mixer to use when using Serato Video? I have the Denon DJ DS1 DVS interface with a Behringer DDM 4000 mixer. I know that it is old school but the mixer will not change Video from one deck to the next. What can I do to make all these problems complete. Thank You In Advance...

I havent used Serato Video in a long time but your mixer has to have a digital fader in order to connect to the software. Your current mixer might not support that. Thanks for watching!

Thank you for this useful tip but, i came here for different issue that is after editing ID3, be it like editing genre "Bass House" from "Dance". Its saves the edit for a while but, next time I play the same track its genre is set to its default as Dance. It happens everytime, Frustating!!! even recreating database, rescan ID3, analyse or reboot doesn,t help anyway. (tracks are not locked, can be edited. Using Serato Dj for windows) Is there any other way in serato or any other software to look upon because I have 1000s of tracks with wrong Genre to be corrected. ANY HELP MUCH APPRECIATED!!! Regards NAMASTE!
