Hi,

I can't use my Serato Software while I use Daslight DVC3 in backround.

If I start Serato First, I can't start Daslight. It says "Not enough Space. End other applications" or something.

If I start Daslight first, Serato doesn't recognize my DDJ-SX.

My System:

Sony Vaio
Intel® CoreTM i5-2450M, 2.5GHz
Windows® 7
8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3-SDRAM
AMD Radeon(TM) HD 7650M 1GB


Thanks for help
Serato, Support

Hey JannikH,

Thanks of getting in touch. Is there any reason why you need to use the other program while you have the Serato DJ program open? I'd suggest if there is a conflict don't run them together. We always suggest running Serato DJ on it own.

Regards

^^^ Agreed. I am using a 2012 MacBook Pro 2.9 GHZ, 16 GB RAM, SSD & yet I STILL don't run anything at the same time as Serato unless I'm just messing around at home. I even shut off Wi-Fi & Bluetooth & iTunes is not a welcomed guest in my house either.

@JannikH seems to me if you are using Daslight you are the type of guy who invests in his performance so maybe a cheap $300-400 laptop specifically to run your light show is the answer. You get the convenience of having both programs maximized on it's respective screen as well. Just a suggestion though.
