Give it a go and you'll see what I mean.Įchoing out is pretty much the Basketball layup of the DJ world. Great trick if you are using hardware that doesn't have library control. This will change what crate you are scrolling through without moving focus from the track list area. A first world problem sure, but a really quick way of doing this is just using SHIFT + CONTROL + DOWN/UP. You'd have to use your mouse and click on the new crate, then click on the track listing again, and then start scrolling. Lets say you're scrolling through tracks in crate with the keyboard arrows, and you want to scroll through a different crate.

MOVE UP/DOWN YOUR CRATES WITHOUT LOSING TRACK FOCUS Sound obvious but it's just a quick way of adding only certain iTunes songs into your Serato library really fast. Now when I go and turn 'Show iTunes Library' off, the iTunes library will disappear except for the file(s) that I added to a Serato crate. But when I purchase a track from iTunes and I want to get it into SDJ the quickest way is to just jump into the Setup Screen, enable 'Show iTunes Library', open the 'Purchased' playlist, and just throw the track into a SDJ crate. I don't have 'Show iTunes Library' on because I organise things differently there than I do in SDJ. Note: Pitch Looper is one of the effects in the Back Pack, which you can purchase from within the 'Online' window of the Serato DJ application. Make sure you always start it from 12 o'clock though and turn it up or down. It gives a breaker type effect, and sounds awesome on snares.

Then turn it on and turn the depth known down the full left. Load up Pitch Looper, set your beats to something small (1/2 - 1/8), and set your depth knob to 12 o'clock. This is the funnest thing since Loop Rolls. For example you're in a large crate, and you are sorting by BPM, and you scroll really far away, then you're like 'actually nah I'm going to keep it at this tempo', BOOM just press CONTROL + L and you'll jump straight back to where you were in the library which was the last loaded track.

That might not sound that amazing but it's insanely handy. Press it once for Deck 1, press it again to jump to the track loaded to Deck 2 and so on. When in your library, press CONTROL + L on your keyboard to jump you highlighted track focus to the track that is loaded to your deck. This might be the best thing that has ever happened in life. I want to share a few little things in Serato DJ that I couldn't do without. Hello everyone! My name's Logan, I'm one of the Product Planners here at Serato.
