Hi is there any way to get Serato DJ working on Linux?

seriously doubt it. unless you can get it to work through wine, they aren't going to open the source up, which would be necessary to build for linux distos. Mixxx is your best bet for linux

This. I once got as far as making it launch, but getting it to make any sound is a whole different beast.

Virtualization is the only way I see could see this happening. Maybe a MacOS vm running on unraid could work too. But either of those going to be hard.

There is a very active community working hard to make a plethora of Windows GAMES work with Linux... Maybe some of that compatibility layer could help figure out how to send the hardware directly into wine instead of emulating it?

You could try a mac VM on Linux using the following github repo:

### 1st get the packages needed
sudo apt-get install qemu-system qemu-utils python3 python3-pip

### then run the following:
git clone github.com
cd macOS-Simple-KVM

### to start the install and choose which installation you woud like to use [or --high-sierra, or --catalina]

./jumpstart.sh --mojave

Let us know if you got success! ^_^
