Pioneer provides a settings file(XML file) exclusively for use with the Serato “Scratch Live” DJ software. Scratch Live can be controlled from this unit if this file is import.
This is a really noob question and I apologise for that but the Pioneer forums weren't much help. I've recently started up with the DDJ-400 (DJing in general too) and I was wondering if someone could please explain the headphone cue function. Apr 23, 2014 The PIoneer DDJ SX is designed to work specifically with Serato DJ, so in order to make the DDJ function as a regular MIDI/USB device, you need to go into UTILITY mode and put the unit in MIDI/USB. Poised to revolutionize the portable DJ experience, the limited gold edition Pioneer DDJ-SB3-N controller offers plug-and-play simplicity along with the world's first Pad Scratch for professional-sounding scratch performances. Serato Scratch Live is a digital DJ system consisting of the software and interface allowing DJing on conventional DJ equipment using special control records/CDs. Serato DJ is a digital DJ system allowing DJing using special hardware, without using time codes. The devices to which these two software programs are connected differ.

Scrollable FX Drop-down Menu
New to Serato DJ 1.5.2 is Scrollable FX Drop down Menus in both single and multi FX mode.
We have optimized the FX drop down menus. Shortening them and adding scroll allows for a larger FX list and stops the list obscuring the library.
