    Does Serato Pro have the same latency* problem like Rekordbox / Traktor Scratch Pro with Pioneer CDJ900 in HID mode ?
    *You can feel the latency problem while scratching and the ''pointer'' in jog wheel looks laggy aswell.

When using Serato you can use pretty much all features on the CDJ (except the big waveform which you will only be able to see it in Serato, not on the CDJs' screen) and you even have more function such as slicer, loop roll, sampler etc. which you can controll using an Add-On-Controller such like the Pioneer DDJ-SP1 or Relop Neon. Also, you get the sound quality, that your mixer or soundcard has!

    • @ImOzify
      @ImOzify 4 роки тому +1

      Dj Enzo Balsamo It looks like the DJM 900 nxs 2 has two slots for USB cables so you could plug in two laptops simultaneously during the transition. I’m guessing steps would be
      DJ #1 has both CDJS and mixer plugged in during his set.
      DJ # 2 comes in and plugs the mixer into his computer as well while DJ #1 is still playing. Depending upon what deck DJ #1 is currently playing off of, DJ #2 will plug the opposite CDJ into his USB hub and load up his track.
      On the mixer, DJ #2 would change the corresponding channel for his first track to USB B because the previous DJ #1 would have both channels set to USB A.
      Now DJ #2 should be able to play the song and mix it into DJ #1’s song.
      Once you’ve completed the transition DJ #2 would plug in the second CDJ to his USB hub and change the corresponding channel on the mixer to USB B.
      Now DJ #2 can play his set as normal and repeat the steps for any additional DJs.
      Hope this helped
