From Traktor!!! god really need another thread!!!

Hey DJ Nick Scott,

It's not far away - keep an eye on the forums or on our Facebook/Twitter feeds to know when it drops.


Eru

Guys, please... PLEASE! need it!

cant...!
wait...!
WANT!
NOW!!!

sitting here like a 6 year old wayting for chrismas.

please, friday relase? and i mean this friday!! think that´s fair, right?

sitting next to santa...

but what is it you NEED so much?

You will live!

support for SL3...

realy, i think i will explode if it comes out friday...

you hear that, serato?! I will hold my breath until I explode!!

need!

what in sdj with sl3 is going to make your dj so amazing??? 3more cue points lol or sync?

damm, dont you take the pleasure away from hypeing it?!

dude, this is part of the game...

just 4 fun.

but yea, 3 more cues matters and signable loot points to jump in are HIGHLY missed in SSL! so in fact there are ELEVEN more cues, and that matters.

and professional FXs matters even more!

and whatever, i forgot to mention:

NEED!
WANT!
NOW!!

you said friday, right?

Y'all crazy. Thank Eru!

*thanks*

LMAO LOOM is crazy.... crazy funny that is. I am entertained by him and agree FRIDAY (Tomorrow) right Serato????? Can't wait

+1 to Friday.

I have a party this Sat and would love to play with 1.6. 1.5 keeps crashing on my Windows 8.

Today is already Friday in NZ. It is currently 7:39 AM, so I'd say in about an hour or two it will be posted.

PS- Jumper4000, do NOT try a beta version live at gigs.

I hope it'll post int he next couple hours...

I'm just spinning at my own house party with 50-60 people, if my guests don't like the beta, they can kiss my butt, lol.

lol, it willl be posted next thursday

^^That hasn't been announced at all

Serato said that on their facebook, under someoen else comment about the beta....

Where? Link it, because I can't find it :P

yes but definately NOT an exact date

Jumper4000,its beta software which means that its quite possible that your friends will hate the sound of serato dj if it crashes while you're using it with your sl3. I'm excited to try it out as well, but there's no way in hell I'm playing out with it the week it comes out!

I can already see, people going start storming in complaining, thinking this was a full final release....

I'm just going to get this out of the way before someone inevitably


Agreed. I feel a preemptive facepalm is in order:

images4.wikia.nocookie.net

Well, I'm using the existing version on Windows 8 with a new NS7 II controller, so it's not reliable at all anyway. It constantly crashes. I can't imagine the beta being any worse. My friends will have to deal with it. Maybe I'll have a CD player ready as backup.

Don't mean to argue, but you might want to test that "beast" (NS7 II) with a Mac.

I might get one too eventually.

Cheers!

And I know it's been said already but removing corrupted files is really really important

Well a mac isn't what is needed at this point, but Windows 7 which is currently supported. By using an unsupported OS bugs that cause crashes and registry errors that have yet to be addressed cause your problems. I had Windows 8 but when i saw that it was not supported I went back to windows 7. I think Serato will at some time in the future support Windows 8. If you are willing to roll back your OS to Win 7, I think your party should go well.

+1

and

+1

on both above.

@ 938MyDJ "Thumbs Up"

I had a corrupt file issue and it effected my entire library... Even my wl files started to lose sync. I tried everything I could think of to solve the issue, but I ended up deleting my entire library and starting over again. I'm still not back to half of my files, but I have no issues with any of my files any longer. A few files effected more and more... so I agree if you have any corrupt files no matter what it says the issue is delete the file from your hdd and not just the library.

Hey, TwoCities...

Heat is up on the wait for this 1.6 beta, huh?

I already have 1.5 running well on my NS6 (might upgrade to NS7 II - soon).

But it's my Pioneer with SL4 and Denon with SL3 that gets me excited to test.

Yeah I'm using a cheap Numark Mix Track Pro with LPD8 external usb hdd (to switch between activated computers) but thinking of getting a DDJ SX or NS7 II and moving towards a DVS setup... DJ has gotten better and better with each update so I can't wait to get my hands on the 1.6 and I know it's just a beta but if it's stable enough with my current controller I'll be over joyed lol. They need to release it now.... can you hear us Serato???? release it now LOL

Agreed, Windows 7 is the wtg

You can jump to loop points in scratch live

Yeah but (unless there's been an update I missed), you can only access it via keyboard shortcut. Can't midi map the function either. And, if I remember rightly, you could only scroll through which loop you wanted to select and not just jump from say, loop 1 to loop 8.

Jump to Loop was a slept-on feature in Serato. Could never use it to its potential. Glad to see it works finally in DJ. And yeah, it's like having another 8 cue points. BIG.

oops. Meant to say Scratch Live, not Serato.

thats what i meant with "assignable". without MIDI acces, its useless. dont want to mess around with keyboard.

dont get me wrong, SSL is great (with or without DVS). but SDJ is waaaaay more comfortable (beatgrid, more cues, loop fast acces etc).

just have the impression SDJ is far more up-2-date ,without even testing it yet! it feels more professional, and the FX upgrade was realy necessary.

friday is gone btw, Serato!

NEED!
WANT!
PLZ!!!

I just excited to use my SixtyOne with it... I've never used SDJ before but I've been on SSL for years. Looking forward to giving SDJ a whirl.

I just want to give my V7 a try.
I've been on traktor for ages and can't wait for this to be supported so i can start getting jiggy again.

If its a beta, release it to the public now!!!

Okay.

serato.com

Yeahhhhhhh dl it now lol THANK YOU Logan D you're the best!!!!

YESSSSS

Logan brain was like - "Lets just drop this ish, forget later this week!" Lol

Everyone's been asking for Quantize.... well it arrived with 1.6 yeahhhhhhh so far 1.6 is the isssshhhhhh now I have to wait to February for the official release... but until then I get to play with 1.6

Oh yeah!

I wonder if any of these new features were assigned to the unused buttons of the CDJ2000Nexus?

It's almost bedtime and it's too late for me to test it now... I downloaded and installed only.

Will do the test tomorrow after work.

This is what I call... Merry Christmas!

Ho ho ho!

Whoo Hoo !!! That's what I'm talking about. Time to pull the V7s from the garage and dust'em off. ;-)

This is what I call... Merry Christmas!

Ho ho ho!

"Thumbs Up"

Damn... I need to start threads more often. ;-)

ITS HERE!

and its awesome! and stable so far. as i predicted some issues with my MIDI controllers, but well, beta.

Thank you guys so much! sth 2 play around while its cold out.

why cant I download the beta?

serato.com

Beta period over... just download the official release. I'm sure any issues reported during the public beta period have been addressed in this release.

Thanks guys , sorry I thought the beta was for Windows 8 users as I can get scratch live to work but not serato dj .

Cheers !

Read through the forum some have posted what they did to get DJ o work with Windows 8, It's not supported as of yet but I'm sure they will in the near future.
