Serato DJ has a really nice interface. I know that there are 4 ways you can set your view settings; horizontal, vertical, extended, and library.
I have become very familiar and comfortable with the horizontal settings. BUT, after using CDJs, I realized how dependent I am of the large waveform to match and in knowing that, I tried to use the library view which has does not allow you to “waveform-match”. This leads me to my question: I tried long and hard to find a setting similar to library that allows me to view which BPM I am set on but Serato doesn’t seem to have one. The library setting does show the song’s BPM but not when its changed.
Anyone have an answer to this or is dealing with the same situation as I am?
i dont use sync. i will be beat-matching by ear. my question is, why doesn’t serato have a setting where if you adjust the tempo the bpm on screen will show in library view?
on cdjs, the bpm and tempo % does in fact change when you adjust the tempo bar.
I think part of the reason is a lot of the people who like that view, enjoy not having any thing that is a reference or aid beyond track selection. the sort of users that might sneer at a CDJ.
That’s the impression that I got.
Uhh… dunno which version you’re running but im running the latest one and when i change the bpm in library view, it shows what it changes to. i used to have this issue as well but when i updated serato dj, it fixed the problem. This kinda sucks a bit now too though because it does kind of help you rely on that a bit too much instead of using your ears. Anyways, brings me to this question, on a CDJ 2000 nxs, does the track bpm display change when you change the bpm of the track?
