Users of the popular Vestax VCI-380, the Numark NS7, and the Pioneer DDJ-S1 will now get the full Serato DJ treatment for Free with all of its cool features and new layout. I'll be looking into the VCI-380 with Serato DJ shortly and write a few words regarding the upgrade, so stay tuned! The Numark Mixdeckand Mixdeck Express also take advantage of the new look and more features as well but they come at the regular price.

The new Multi-FX feature finally allows users to take advantage of all of their six FX buttons and knobs that are traditionally used this way for Traktor or Virtual DJ software. The Multi-FX allows new ways for DJ's to control the new iZotope powered FX in Serato DJ. Check out the video below for a quick tutorial.

Serato DJ 1.2 also gives users a free 14-day trial to those who have a Serato DJ Intro controller. This will let DJ's know if they really want the upgrade features before they commit or to give more incentive for people to upgrade. Either way, it's a great move by the Serato team.

The Serato team has just released the new Serato DJ 1.3.0 DJ software that includes some welcomed upgrades to the effects and also allows all DJ controllers to use the "pioneer-inspired" Slip mode feature. The effects section receives the most attention in this upgrade which now has a new FX Expansion pack system that allows users to purchase and download additional FX packages that provide DJ's with a multitude of new effects to use in their sets.

The Numark NS6 has been out on the market for almost two years now, but its still one of my favorite controllers to use with Serato. During our HD-Video review, we loved the build quality, tight jog wheels, and excellent fader feel along with the plethora of input and output options that are available to the users. The NS6 now gets a free software upgrade from Serato Itch to the new and improved Serato DJ and DJ CXL is in the Numark Studio to give a quick demo video of the new look and features. Check out the performance video and my (throwback) NS6 review after the jump.

The Numark NS7 has been out on the market for over 3 years now, but its still one of my favorite controllers to use with Serato as its still the only controller that contains actively spinning platters and a mixing console all in one single unit. During DJ Esco's written review, we loved the build quality, excellent vinyl feel on the platters, and a high quality mixing section to round out the package. The NS7 now gets a free software upgrade from Serato Itch to the new and improved Serato DJ and DJ CXL is in the Numark Studio to give a quick demo video of the new look and features. Check out the performance video and the (throwback) NS7 written review.

Serato DJ has come a long way in terms of available effects within its software setup. The new izotope effects found in Serato sound great and they have lots of depth to make them unique. There are many different tricks and tips that can be found within the Serato DJ effects engine. The Serato DJ team has just released an in-depth tutorial video on the Serato DJ FX powered by iZotope. Check out the video after the jump.

The new Serato DJ software that comes bundled with the new Pioneer DDJ-SX will soon be released to all current Serato Itch Users and Serato DJ Intro Users within the next few months. This newly updated software will have quite a few differences from what those DJ's are normally used to, so the Serato team decided to get everyone familiar with Serato DJ by releasing a slew of new Tutorial videos so users can see exactly what's changed and how to use the features. Check out all the videos inside after the jump!

Just last week, Vestax announced that the new Serato DJ Software now works with their Typhoon Digital DJ Controller. Vestax Typhoon users can download a free trial for 14 days, or upgrade for $129.

Just because someone is using the lite version of a DJ software doesn't mean the DJ can't pull off some great mixing and show some serious skills on these new entry-level DJ controllers that are out there on the market. We reviewed the Pioneer DDJ-SB controller about a year ago and Sam from the Serato team performs a quick routine using only Serato DJ Intro and some of the entry-level controllers that all cost under $300 and are bundled with the software. If you need more horsepower, then the user can upgrade to the full Serato DJ software which has more features.

The Numark Mixtrack Pro II was just announced earlier today at this year's NAMM 2012 show as the new successor to the Numark Mixtrack Pro original DJ controller. The Mixtrack Pro II will come bundled with Serato DJ Intro, but the folks at Serato have already started working on the upgrade path to the full Serato DJ software. Serato has just sent out a quick video demo of the Numark Mixtrack Pro II working in perfect harmony with Serato DJ.
