Serato Software Feature Suggestions

What features would you like to see in Serato software?

Column to show what crates a song is in

I think it would be handy to show what crates a song exists in. This could probably be something that could also be handled in an external file app, but I do think it would be handy within SSL.

Nice one.

Halfway... how do you deal with tracks which are in multiple crates?

Not sure if you're asking me or a user named Halfway, but I'd just list all the crates in that "crated in" column.

I think having multiple songs in multiple crates is one of the most powerful features of Serato.

HEhe, I meant "halfway nice" ;)

Someone suggested a mode where you select a song, and all crates where this song is in will be highlightened.

Oooooh! That's really smart! That would make sorting even quicker! It also is a very nice visual catagorization system..

YES!! I had this problem today! I couldn't find a song that was in the crate I was using, which it was also supposed to be in...wasn't a big deal after all because of the 'search' feature, but since I'm addicted to havin' everything organized, I really want to know where it is and I'm not goin' through my 1000+ songs to find out which crate it's in...

Good suggestion!!

That's a very good idea, I would love that!

Thank you for bringing this up again. I just bumped a post where it was briefly discussed (Highlight Crates Containing a Track).

I need this! And I gotta believe it would help a lot of people organize their shit.

It's the perfect time for Serato to jump on this feature. Just like STEMS, everyone else other than the "industry leading" software had them - then Serato was like "we're adding STEMS, it's a GAME CHANGER! OMG!".

Serato has done an amazing job in so many ways - it would be nice if they provided some tools like this to help manage your library. It kinda boggles me that they haven't included a way to find out what crate(s) a track is in :(

That's a great shout, would definitely help with transitions between creates.

Yeah, especially if you had tracks in multiple crates. Plus just knowing whether you put a track somewhere, how you chose to categorize a track - there are all sorts of benefits. This is just too useful a feature to leave out, hence why you see it in other DJ software...

Full support

I am 99,9% sure I have requested this years ago. LOL

I wouldn't be surprised if more people have also posted something like this, especially seeing as the other DJ systems have it - seems like having something along these lines is a no-brainer!

Serato implemented beat jump like 6 years before traktor.
Stems like 2 years before virtual dj, very funny all the campaing they did like they have a game changer going on. It took a week to virtual dj to launch a new update of their stems technology LOL
