Serato Video General Discussion

Talk about Serato Video and Video-SL.

Best controller with full Serota Video Support

DJ JaySmoke 5:27 PM - 18 June, 2015
Am looking at getting into the VJin industry but I currently hv the numark mixdeck which doesn't have full support for serato video. I am looking at purchasing the pioneer DJ SX2 but am not sure if it supports serato video fully including crossfade etc. Can someone point me in the right direction please?

Thank you.

NV supports video just fine, it's more about if your laptop can handle it. The crossfader is easily linked in Serato Video on most (SDJ supported) controllers from the past 2 years.

what exactly do you mean by full support? Cause here it says your deck is compatible for serato video if you upgrade to SDJ

Crossfade doesn't work on Mixdeck

That sucks then it's kind of misleading if it says its compatible. It's of no use if it doesn't crossfade.

Yeah it does. Cause I bought the serato video cause I saw my controller in the list. Only to confront the tech team and they told me that the problem is from numark not serato.

eh if the Numark indeed says it's Serato Video capable and doesn't specify about the crossfader then yes it is Numark's fault. If not then that's Serato's deal and they should either reimburse you or fix the issue. I'd find out the real cause👍🏻💯

Weird he basically told you it's not compatible but in the description it says it's Serato video compatible. I see that as a typo in their part. They should edit that description cause the meaning of video mixing is to crossfade. So yes it's useless.
