Using the channel fader start
function
1 Set the cue.
Pause at the position from which you want to start playback, then press
the [
CUE
] button for the corresponding deck.
!
Cues can also be set by moving the channel fader from the back
to the position nearest you while pressing the [
SHIFT
] button in
the pause mode.
2 While pressing the [SHIFT] button, move the channel
fader from the position nearest you towards the back.
Playback of the track starts from the set cue point.
!
When the channel fader is moved back to the position nearest you
while pressing the [
SHIFT
] button during playback, the track moves
instantaneously back to the set cue point and the pause mode is set.
(Back Cue)
!
If no cue is set, playback starts from the beginning of the track.
!
It is also possible to change the setting in the utility settings so that
the sync mode is set simultaneously when playback is started with
the channel fader start function.
!
When the channel fader is moved from the back to the position near-
est you while pressing the [
SHIFT
] button when standing by at a cue,
track playback starts from the set cue.
Using the sampler velocity mode
When the [
SAMPLER
] mode button is pressed for over one second, the
sampler velocity mode turns on and off.
When the sampler velocity mode is on, the sample volume level changes
according to the strength with which the performance pads are tapped.
The volume level increases when the performance pads are tapped
strongly, decreases when they are tapped weakly.
When the sampler velocity mode is off, the sound is triggered at the
volume level set with the Serato DJ software, regardless of the strength
with which the performance pads are tapped.
!
The sampler velocity mode’s on/off setting is reset each time the
power is turned on; this unit starts up with the sampler velocity mode
turned off.
!
The velocity curve can be set in the utility settings.
Analyzing tracks
When one of this unit’s [
LOAD
] buttons is pressed and tracks are loaded
onto the decks, the tracks are analyzed, but some time may be required
until analysis is completed and the BPM and waveform are displayed.
When the Serato DJ software is used as an offline player, tracks can be
analyzed ahead of time. For tracks whose analysis has been completed,
the BPM and waveform are displayed immediately when the tracks are
loaded onto the decks.
For details on using the Serato DJ software as an offline player and
instructions on analyzing tracks, see the Serato DJ software manual.
!
Depending on the number of tracks, some time may be required for
analysis.
