Hi
I have a Pionner DDJ-ERGO LE (OR K Limited edition)
I have update all the latest Pioneer windows driver 1.1
and Firmware 1.3 and I also make sure computer is connected with battery

However when I open the Serato, I will appear "Hardware Disconnected"

Please Help me out
Thank you very much

Hey DJ CICI,

Thanks for your post. You may have to disable your Pioneer DDJ-Ergo as a sound device so that it can be read as a MIDI device on your computer. Below I have attached some instructions on how to do this:


-> Right click on 'My Computer' icon on your desktop
-> Select 'Manage'
-> In the left hand panel select 'Device Manager'
-> In the middle panel select the 'Arrow' next to 'Sound, Video and Game Controllers
-> From the drop down, search for 'Pioneer Ergo'
-> Once found Right Click and Disable.

From here you will need to restart your computer before relaunching Serato DJ.

Let me know how you go with this.

Cheers.
