Serato DJ 1.5 was introduced primarily to deliver DVS support support for new products. 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.

[edit] - Serato DJ 1.5.1 has been released - See below [/edit]

For users who have experienced stability issues with Serato DJ 1.5 please continue to post and upload your crash logs so the software engineers can improve your experience as soon as possible.

HI

Thanks for the update, I've had some issues with the slipmode function hanging the program if I use it excessively.

If we are using Numark controllers can we install the effect packages that come with 1.5?

Hey Soundwave DJ,

The effects packages in 1.3 and 1.5 are the same :)

Cheers,
Michael.

I can say this. With the NS7-2, Serato DJ 1.5 is no good. Random stuff like track skipping, double spin back (You spin back, hear the spinback, stop the record, and the exact sound of the spinback happens a second time like a second later). Random auto looping, etc..

I went to version 1.3, no problems. Numark, hope you see this and it helps.
