Hi there,

The two iTunes issues that we're aware of around playlists not collapsing and Apps showing in the library will be fixed in a following update soon. We tried hard to fit these into this release but they didn't make it in time unfortunately.

Sorry it's not fixed yet but we're working on it and it will be fixed soon!

Sam.

No word about the iTunes 12.2? Is that fixed now?
maarawoe 8:44 AM - 10 August, 2015
iTunes 12.2 still causing this version to crash for me!

Hey maarawoe,

We've also identified your issue and this will be fixed in the following update too. Sorry we couldn't get this through for this release but it's not far behind.

I have just installed the DVS expansion pack for my NS7 2, plugged in my decks but it won't read the control vinyl. Vinyl cd control is enabled but no signal is seen by serato dj 1.7.7. I have tried all phono inputs on the back of the NS7 2 but no luck.

What about the SPLIT CUE headphone issue with the NUMARK NS6 ?? is this corrected yet ??
DJ Snake Eyez 12:03 PM - 10 August, 2015
It seems as if the iTunes issue is not a major priority to you guys over there. It's been well over a month & you'll continue to add & upgrade everything else. This has been a major disappointment in my eyes as well as many others. I've been a very strong supporter of Rane & Serato from the very beginning but to see this issue sit on the backburner for so long is unacceptable. You guys are or shall I say (were) #1 when it comes to industry standard music software & equipment but have very much loss focus of your customers. I am almost 100% sure that the iTunes issue is at the top of your list from most users but yet we continue to wait day to day hoping for a resolution FINALLY. All I can say at this point is I hope its not another couple of months we'll have to wait for this problem to be fixed but at this rate, I WILL NOT BE SURPRISED! SMH!
DJ LOOSE CANNON big ding 12:14 PM - 10 August, 2015
My laptop runs off windows 10 super fast program. I had itch for my ns6 and also have serato dj installed too.itch won't respond to my windows 10 but serato dj does which is great. My question is if I install this serato dj 1.7.7 new update that's available will it work with my windows 10 ..

You DO realize that Rane has NOTHING to do with the software development, RIGHT?

I Strongly Support his Point. Looking for something else as an alternative.

We're taking it very seriously. This release has been planned for a while and unfortunately these iTunes issues came about quite late in the piece so didn't manage to make it into this one. As i've mentioned, we're disappointed as well and really wanted to get these in as we know they are high priority for users.

The issues will be fixed in another forthcoming update soon.

mister_wilson 7:36 PM - 10 August, 2015
Those of you who are complaining about iTunes may want to unintegrate your crates with Itunes as an alternative. Serato has no control over how much Apple changes one of their flagship programs (and the recent iTunes update was massive) and they have to focus on keeping up with OS upgrades (windows and Mac OS) which will hamper all users, not just the minority using Itunes. You are going to experience this no matter what program you use if you try to integrate ITunes library files and/or playlists. I am sure if Serato had it to do over, they would never have offered ITunes integration.

Do you recommend upgrading to Windows 10 yet? Does this download 1.7.7 work for Windows 10
Foday stanley 8:04 PM - 10 August, 2015
Got tired of waiting for DVS Support for NS7 II so i Pre ordered DJM S9, Woke up this morning saw this update with dvs support now available for NS7 II.

Massive shout out to the entire Serato team, imagine if there were like numark who barely reply to inquiries. i don't really care about the new screen but being able to rock my ttx1 along side my NS7 II. damn no better feeling than that :)....

Serato please now that we have dvs on NS7 II, do i need to buy serato club kit or can i just purchase dvs on it own because my NS7 II came with free Serato DJ licence

A video tutorial of NS7 II connections & Upgrade to dvs will be very helpful if possible. thanks

Don't buy anything yet, I purchased the DVS expansion this morning for the NS7 2 and it does not work. I have raised a help request but so far have not heard anything back from Serato.

Not a very good move from Numark. Would be the perfect addition to the original NS7, NS6, V7s, etc.

Sam can you respond to us please, NS7 II users have waited years for this dvs support.

As for iTunes issues, I wonder why some djs rely on third parties software. My opinion is everyone start making your playlist with built in serato custom/ smart creates.

Serato, there has to be a way for newly downloaded songs to automatically display on serato dj software. Come on folks we can't rely on iTunes forever. I never did anyway.

Back to NS7II dvs issue, Serato please help. we desperately waiting

I guess if no one is going to give us an answer I think it's only right we are refunded on the NS7 2 DVS expansion pack because it does not work (Period) to quote Numark advertising.

Hi This new ITUNES has messed everything up. I had to start fresh. But now I can not active some already purchased expansion pack. I.E PITCH N TIME, JETPACK, WOLFPACK, BACKPACK & SERATO REMOTE I already purchased all these products and it's is asking me to purchase again.

Hello again Sam, thanks for replying but did serato team not test ns7ii on dvs before publicly announcing it's support.

Numark are useless, they busy promoting NS7 II with screen claiming its NS7 III, soon they will tell us to buy the screen to activate dvs lol.

Maybe your technical team could test this again and see what the outcome will be cos a video tutorial will save alots of stress about this.thanks

Hey guys!

We sure did test the NS7II on DVS before announcing support, if you are having any trouble getting it going please hit up our support team for some guidance! You can open a new help request here; support.serato.com

Will 2 dance,

There were no specific fixes to the Numark Mixdeck in this release.

Cheers guys!

Hi guys

Unfortunately there has been a large oversight in that the firmware update required to run DVS with the NS7 II has not yet been released by Numark. We are expecting it to be made public very soon.

Our apologies to anyone who has already purchased the DVS expansion pack and spent time trying to get it going. I'll update everyone here as soon as I know the firmware is available.

Thanks,
Aaron


Hopefully this is addressed shortly and you guys will be underway!

Thanks!

Hey guys,

If anyone needs technical support, it's best to open a help ticket here: support.serato.com

If you have questions, we're happy to answer them here but it's not the best place to get help from our support guys :)

Hey everyone. Me again...

If you've had trouble activating DVS for the NS7II, the new firmware that is needed for this to work is now available here: www.numark.com

Download and install this and you should be good to go :)

If you have purchased this and are unhappy it's not been working for you till now and would still like a refund, we're happy to do this. Just email sales@serato.com and Jubt from the team will help.

Sorry again for the delays with this.

Kind regards,

Sam.

Thanks a lot!! now NS7 II is a real DVS system...

It works better with phono mode turntables on channels 1 and 2.
DJ Stean 2:24 PM - 12 August, 2015
It's so f#%&*n annoying! The iTunes bug is still there and probably never will be fixed in Scratch Live, which I'm still runnin' cause you told me to buy Ableton Live for using "The Bridge", which isn't supported in Serato DJ anymore, which still isn't running as safe as I want it to be for taking it into a club. And now you want me to spend some more f#%&*n money for a f#%&*n license to run a f#%&*n software, I already own a license for, just for using it with a club mixer? Could it be worse?

Hey guys,

I know it's disappointing that the iTunes fixes for non-expanding playlists and Apps showing in the library didn't make it into this release. Unfortunately they just came in a little too late to make it :( We are working hard to fix these though for another upcoming release that isn't too far off.

We know you guys get frustrated with issues like these - we are working hard to get the resolved though.

para cuando una mejora con el autoplay? deberían mejorar el autoplay y hacerlo mas inteligente. Desde que crearon el programa, jamas hubo un avance... los que automatizamos la previa con videos en fiestas o eventos necesitamos una mejora radical en el pegue entre temas, con mayor inteligencia, donde se pueda elegir por quitar los temas con baches en la salida, de manera inteligente. Seria importante que el programa tomara de manera inteligente, el tema audio. Gracias

OK DJS here is my solution to this I have a 2012 MACBOOK PRO I added 16 gigs of memory replaced the 750 gig hard drive with a 1TB Samson SSD also added a 1TB hard drive where the cd drive use to be. I went back to Maviricks OS and I installed Serato 1.7.5. 3 parties later like a beast! I Love Serato. But do not update to 1.7.7 till serato, iTunes & Yosimite get it right.

With Dvs,you can add 2 turntables to your set up, all featured on your ns7ii, such as mpc pads,effect etc will all work. It's mainly for vinyl lovers who are finding it's hard to stop using turntables as djs.

It's a good addition cos your set up looks bigger and more opportunities to be creative in your performance,

Scratch djs like myslef prefer turntables for better scratching and fully control with bigger vinyl but the problem is more stuff to carry around beside that it's a must have.

It's new technology so I reckon giving it a go cos sometimes you could be guest djing as a club or radio station with only turntables, its helps prepare all djs to be able to perform with any equipments that comes your way. hope this helps.

iTunes 12.2 sent my library into turmoil. I complained to Serato for a day or two, and then went about fixing the problem myself.
I migrated all my music away from iTunes now use Serato as my primary player.
Its really easy to do, just a little bit time consuming. No different really from sorting thru my collection of vinyl and putting records back where they belong after taking them out.
Honestly, listening and sorting music now is a lot more enjoyable as i can edit as i listen, and I'm not listening to the same old iTunes shuffle algorithm. Also there is the peace of mind itunes will not rename metadata or hide things from the playlist in the future.
Something i should a done years ago. Do it.

Not sure why you would want to add in the Rane 64 when DVS will allow you to use timecode with the NS7II.

Updated to 1.7.7 with new numark driver as instructed. Serato crashed in the middle of my gig.. could this be a bug in the recent update or maybe it's iTunes ?

i have installed 1.7.7 update on my Pioneer DDJ-SR and it freezes constantly when I am moving pitch fader? I had to switch my controller off/on at least 6 times whilst playing the other night at a house party until I figured out what was the problem! Has anyone else had this issue or can Serato help?

Hola, hace poco actialize mi MacBook Pro al sistema osx 10.9.5 y mi controlador es PIONEER SX2, desde ese instante serato 1.7.7 al estar trabajando unos minutos sin problemas pero cuando quiero configurar algún efecto o entrar a setup , o pinchar cualquier otro ítem de la pantalla de serato, este se desconecta y se cierra serato. tengo que volver abrir nuevamente para seguir mi trayecto y ahí configurar rápido para seguir tocando y dejarlo así para no provocar nuevamente que se bloquee y cierre el software. Antes no ocurría esto ahora pasa constantemente.

I am transitioning from CD's and players. I just purchased Pioneer DDJ SR and have downloaded Serato 1.7.7. Using a MB pro with OSX 10.6.8 Serato 1.7.7 requires 10.7.

Tried to upgrade but it says current. I see Yosemite is available version 10.10?

Advice appreciated thanks.

Randy

@Serato
Issue: Slip Mode not Activating/Responding with Illumination (Replicated issue on both Decks 100% immediate after GUI Launch)

Track Position indicator on Platter does not move/rotate nor match GUI Track position on start or play.
Note: Indicator on physical platter will only match physical movement when touched and moved in vinyl mode operation, once platter surface is not touched then indicator will stay still although track is still playing and GUI on software displays movement. (Replicated issue on both Decks 100% immediate after GUI Launch)

Please note: Worked on prior versions of Serato DJ. Tested Slip modes on/off and button illumination on other software and works (no issues)

Hardware: Serato DDJ-SX with current firmware 1.07

Also tested with a midi mapped mixer using a Rane SL2
Results: Slip mode works, just not working on DDJ-SX

I hope this information is helpful guys.

No thank you 1.7.8. I'll wait to see what other bug issues are reported. If it's not broken don't fix it

I found the issue and I hope this helps minimize any calls or messages Serato receives.
It seems that the issue is caused by the DDJ-SX being on "other software mode"

To exit this mode simply do the following:

1. Press the [STANDBY/ON] switch on this unit’s rear to POWER OFF the DDJ-SX
Un plug the USB cable

2. Press and hold both the [SHIFT] and [PLAY/PAUSE ] buttons on the left deck
while pressing the [STANDBY/ON] switch on this unit’s rear to POWER ON the unit
(This will launch the utility settings mode of the unit.)

3. Press the [KEY LOCK] button on the left deck to switch between modes.

------------
Please note:
If the Red LED on the ● [KEY LOCK] button is OFF then you are in a setting to use Your DDJ-SX with Serato DJ.
If the Red LED on the ● [KEY LOCK] button ILLUMINATED then you are in the "OTHER SOFTWARE MODE"

4. Once you have selected the the mode simply Press the [STANDBY/ON] switch on this unit’s rear panel to Power OFF the unit.

5. Reconnect your USB of the DDJ-SX to your computer, Power the unit back ON via the [STANDBY/ON] switch, Launch the Serato DJ software.

6. Take over the world!!!!! :)
