I always wondered how to do this and finally I know how. I can't wait to map out my DJM-800. Your videos are very intuitive. We really appreciate you taking your time to explain and show us new things!

awesome thanks! ive had the DDM for like 4 years and serato but never even thought of using them together!!

You still need the serato box. The DDM is just a midi controller that lets you use the buttons on the mixer to control functions on the software.

Wow, didn't know you could use analogue stuff like a knob for midi input... Selecting music like that is amazing..

what if you want to connect 2 turntables to the ddm4000? would serato recognize them through that midi connection if you threw the timecode vinyls on top?

@DJLazBoz Hey I just bought the DDM4000 and had the same problem. No idea why does that either, but I kept turning it on and off till I barely was able to see anything on the FX screen, but then also you need to turn the nob that is on the right side of the effect area to move the contrast of the screen up till you are able to see whats on the screen.. good luck

@jeanviarel Hi I recently bought the DDM 4000 slightly used i had the same issue. "VR24" particularly means the system is going for a system self check. I had switched on and off several time but did not pass that point until such time i had let the unit to do a full system re-test.. Just On the DDM4000 and Press only Once the OK knob (Console Set up knob) and let it go on by itself, after a while the system will start to test all its lights,buttons,knobs etc.... let it complete then restart..

You're amazing Thank you

2 updates if you are running this setup, Check the M-Audio website for serial number, some of them are defective and M-Audio will honor the warranty. Second s that there is an update to the M - Audio Driver as well. I had an issue with random tracks being loaded as I scrolled crates with the cross fader. other than that I am happy with this setup.

nice! thanx 4 the quick response.

i have the pioneer djm-700 with serato and i cant seem to assign any midi controls to it.. i also have it connected with a m-audio uno.. i am running it with a toshiba satellite..

@partyspecialists I recommend the Akai LPD-8. works great for me.

this was totally not what i was looking for... but i enjoyed the vid. ghehehe

so im gonna be buying this mixer and i have a serato and macbookpro and i have a external harddrive... so afer the midi to usb plugs in to my mac. and serato usb to my mac.... and how can i plug my exeternal harddrive cause macs only has 2usb

yes, today i download the 1.8.3 version of SSL and i got the green light after i assign the button, do i need to save something after that to make it work?....after i have it assing doesn't work, its weird works with the 1.8.3 version but not with the 1.8.2

Thank you Jon

I have the same midi to USB adapter my comp is saying it is working fine but I'm not able to map anything nothing happens when I try to assign it. Is there something on the ddm that I need to set up so that it will let me do so? Or am I having a problem with the mixer? Thanks any help appreciated

Is it possible to midi map the buttons in FX1 and FX2 section in the center of the mixer to control scratch live. I want to be able to midi map this section of the mixer because of the layout.

mine it is not function well means i assigned it and then it doesn't work may be i'm missing step the way u show its easy but not with me do u have to set up on the mixer or somewhere please i need more info

@lucagasgas do i need a soundcard, even if i have 2 dns 3700....and de dmm4000...and i want to use as a midi controller...for ableton o virtual dj.......thank you

Can this be set via midi to completely control serato or virtualDJ. What i mean is can you program it so that the only hardware you would need is your laptop with software and this mixer, so you could choose track, cue it and then play it via a button on DDM and then use other buttons on DDM to pitch bend and also increase/decrease pitch, so in essence doing away with mp3 compatible cd decks ? Also once midi is assigned to do this how easy is it to revert back to normal to use with vinyl decks

whats the whole process to set up midi on ssl?...you show us the connections, but what else we need to do?

exactly how long did you leave it alone? Mine gets stuck at the "check buttons/knobs screen" Thx for any help. Driving me insane!

is the master out through your computer or mixer? do you have to get an external sound card to get the audio to transmit through the mixer?

Hey S.T I have the same problem as Cahs09..I hook it up and nothing happen. It seems pretty cut & dry, hook up midi out and usb? Nothing? Any suggestion would be welcome?

I bought key board midi control but dose not work,could you tell me why

how would you use the buttons you replaced on ur mixer? or are those buttons made for midi?

Hey I have a ? My controller was working fine yesterday when I set it up. But today I turned it on serato scratch shows it's recognised but the controller is not working. I checked my USB to see if the pc is picking it up and it does it when works on vdj but serato it's not working

Did you fix your mixer by leaving it alone and finish the self test?

do you still need a serato box if you have the M-audio uno ????

Will i abble to do the Midi mapping with the Pioneer DJM-700 like on the Video. Thx

i have 2 ndx 800 and scartch live, hpw can i map both of them?

i have this setup, thanx for the info, it works great, but i want to control a drum machine with the midi clock from the ddm4000 as well, how can i do this? seeing as the midi out is already in use. can i use the midi in for serato?

I had trouble setting this up.... its actually midi in on cable to midi out on mixer i bought a 8 dollar cable midi to usb on ebay for a keyboard and it works just fine

would this be possible to use with a numark v7 ? PLEASE REPLY ASAP AS ITS URGENT THANKS

I just got a brand new midi uno usb controller and can not get it to map anything in vsl using my djm 700. i need help

Can this be done using the Pioneer Djm 700

so if i hve a pc do i hve to install the serato sofware cd first on the pc before i connect the ddm 4000 ...???. or can it work without the installation serato disc

can you set the quick keys on your mac keyboard as well? i started using serato and i would like to have the quickkeys set on the keyboard so whenever i play in the club with different equipments it would be nice to have it set up on the computer rather than setting up on every equipments i have to play on.

nice vid! i wonder if its possible to midi up other dj hardware like..sp samplers & so on?..peace

I found the Pioneer DJM-800 was terrible for midi controls, based on my experienced djing out and about with serato. I couldn't believe how much better this was when i used it considering its about 1/4 the price. pity about where the headphone jack is located....

can you go from midi to firewire?

Ok so the MIDI UNO plugs into the laptop... then where does the SSL 2 plug into and how are the cables run? I looked at the Serato website and just became confused looking at the diagram. Can you make a brief description outlining how everything is hooked up? Thanks! =)

Very helpful thanks.

I havent downloaded anything with this mixer and i am on a PC not mac.
