Scratch Live 2.5 Bug Fixes

Alongside these key features Scratch Live 2.5 also includes bug fixes to continue the unparalleled level of stability and performance that Serato software is known for.

Some examples of the bug fixes are:

• Mixtape .als recordings now work with Ableton Live 9.
• Fixed a bug where the beatgrid lock wasn't being saved and loaded to/from the file; it was only being saved to the database.
• The Sixty-Eight record source is now correctly loaded from preferences.
• Fixed a bug where the CDJ-350 was sending both MIDI and HID messages which meant it could possibly fire two different Scratch Live events at the same time.
• Fixed a bug where the DJFX deck assignments wouldn't save to preferences if going from being 'on' initially, to 'off'.

Serato Control CD 1.0.0

You can burn your own Serato Control CDs or use the Control Signal .wav file directly from a removable storage device like a USB drive or portable hard drive.

The Serato Control CD is available in 2 file formats:

This file requires an unzip utility to open and contains Serato Control CD.wav. Please unzip the package to show the .wav file.

Serato Control CD.wav is a stereo 44.1KHz wave file that you can drop into any CD burning application, or run directly off a removable storage device such as a USB key or removable hard drive.
When using a USB stick, connect the USB stick with the Serato Control CD.wav to your digital player and select 'USB' as the control connection mode.

When burning the .wav file to a CD do not adjust the audio levels, make sure any audio auto-levelling is turned off, don't down-sample the audio or use a different audio format.

Altering the source audio file in any way will result in the control signal not functioning correctly.

This is a disc image file, suitable for burning to a CD.
