Serato DJ Pro 1.3.0

Numark Users: Serato DJ 1.5 was introduced primarily to deliver DVS support, however Numark has determined that Serato DJ 1.3 offers superior stability when used with Numark controllers, including NS7, NS7II and NS6, and since the additional features of 1.5 do not dramatically impact Numark users, Serato and Numark strongly recommend that for optimum performance, Numark users download and use Serato DJ 1.3 until further notice.

Serato is proud to announce the launch of Serato DJ 1.3.0, an update to our newest DJ software for professional DJs.

Key new features of Serato DJ 1.3.0

Slip Mode for all supported controllers
