      NOOOOOO MY BROTHA!!!!
      It is sooooooooooooo easy and straight forward!
      I'm def a 100% old school vinyl guy too when I started
      What are you getting hung up on?
      There are def a few settings you need to figure out to make it "your own"
      But not many at all, and its truly plug and play right out the box
      Once you setup your crates
      (Imagine every single crate you make is truly a record crate)
      Put the tracks you want in each crate, sort it the way you like,
      And than just the tracks in !
      Start slow and if you have any questions do not hesitate to reach out bro!!
      Good luck!!

      Ya i definitely started on scratch live,
      With control records.
      I honestly could never imagine going back,
      (like to records)
      Serato is just such a game changer
      I was talking with a friend about an all in 1 unit, and I remember theres no sampler or anything,
      He has to program in the sames to cue pts or something,
      Whatever he said, just seems like so much extra work.
      At this point I've said it time and time again,
      It's not even the controller or anything,
      The most important piece of my gear is the laptop.

    "enable play count" has a huge impact on PC's performance, Sometimes even with serato's software stability. Specially if you are streaming and have alot of other apps opened as well. Basically is WRITING LIVE on your hdd/ssd, the song you have playing atm. That together with with 1ms-2ms buffer can create stutters and eventual crashes. My advice keep it if serato is only one app running, disable if if you have many apps that run at same time.

    • @TheDJConnect
      @TheDJConnect  2 роки тому +1

      That's interesting! Never have had an issue at all with playcount, let alone serato stability,
      I usually am running a stream, recording, serato, and 100 google tabs open, and don't have crashes
      But good to know about play count!

      To another function if you like it better

The number of features you pass over as ‘just do this’ and others where you don’t even describe them. You just say ‘I have other videos’. It would be minimal to just describe them for the beginner who has not seen other videos. That’s the point of a ‘beginner’ video

There are vids that show this to be a fact. There are bugs in all earlier versions and we know cause with every update they mention 'bug fixes'. They won't tell u the present versions hv bugs too until it's fixed.
      The last thing it has done with a friend of mine who had a well specced laptop was the delay in the waveforms not showing on the screen as fast as the tracks were moving which resulted in no audio from the song when the visible part of the waves passed the centered wave marker.

      Sorry about that... I can definitely answer any questions
      But it was already a 30 minute video
      Didn't know there were any absolute beginners left.
      But crate videos will show how to load music

      Do you have a video on transition from records/CDs into Serato

    • @TheDJConnect
      @TheDJConnect  Рік тому

      You would need a player + DVS
      And than it's the exact same thing
      It just plays thru your mixer
