When the Serato DJ software was released, the MixEmergency software plugin that allows Serato users to DJ with video was left out in the cold as it was incompatible with the newest form of their popular DJ software. Serato DJ users were forced to use the Serato Video plug-in to do their Video DJ sets. Now, Serato has made things right by allowing Inklen to produce a new version of MixEmergency 2.4 that is now fully-compatilbe with Serato DJ.
Serato themselves haven’t pledged their support, but since there are so many users that work with both Serato and MixEmergency; it just makes the most sense for Serato to yield to the demand. Since MixEmergency 2.4 now works with Serato DJ, this means that the Rane/Pioneer Serato Mixers and soundcards, along with all the DJ controllers that run the full Serato DJ software are also now fully compatible with MixEmergency. Users who already have the 2.0 software or higher get the 2.4 update for free. Anyone with the 1.x software can purchase the upgrade for $99, and new users will pay the full $199 price for a fresh install. Check out the full press release and links to the software below…
