Serato’s press release accurately stated what we’ve all been thinking for a while – “SERATO DJ 1.2.0 NOW AVAILABLE – NOT JUST CONTROLLER SUPPORT“. It’s great to see that the software is advancing – in ways besides it’s slow rollout to ITCH controllers and new controllers – and the Multi-FX support is a great example. It’s been a long time coming – and finally Serato DJ users will be able to apply multiple effects concurrently in each unit – not just the two units/FX limit that the software previous had.
Watch Serato’s Multi-FX in action in the below video:
The effects menu dropdown now includes additional effects presets, bringing the full selection out to:
- Delay
- Echo
- Version Echo
- Ping Pong Delay
- Reverb
- Phaser
- Flanger
- Distortion
- High Pass Filter (HPF
- Low Pass Filter (LPF)
- LFO Filter
- Combo HP/LP Filter
CONTROLLERS AND 14-DAY TRIAL
But it wouldn’t be a Serato DJ release if there weren’t new controller support as well! The new version of Serato DJ supports a number of legacy controllers, including the very popular Numark NS7, the Vestax VCI-380, the Pioneer DDJ-S1, the Numark Mixdeck, and the Numark Mixdeck express.
For the owners of controllers who aren’t sure if they’re ready to update yet, Serato’s also offering a 14-day trial for any users who have a supported Serato DJ Intro controller – with all of the features unlocked.
There’s also a host of very welcome bug fixes – stability continues to be important for the Serato team. Read the full changelog here.
Download Serato DJ 1.2 or check out the free 14-day trial – and let us know in the comments how you get on.
