From there all that is left to do is click and drag cue points from the sections of the song I want to use, then drop them in song view at the bottom of Serato Studio in the order I’ve come up with. Once in Serato Studio, I drop the song into an audio track and load the beat grid and cue points from Serato DJ Pro. Then I take that song and load it into Serato Studio. I usually start these kinds of edits in Serato DJ Pro to figure out which parts are best and set cue points around them, then test out the idea by playing it in the DJ software. These are really easy to make in Serato Studio 1.4. One of my favourite types of custom DJ edit is the “short edit”, which condenses a song down to its best parts. Once you’ve picked the song you’d like to work on you just drag it to an audio track and Serato Studio will either create a beatgrid and put a cue point on the first downbeat automatically, or you have the option to load your beatgrid and cue point data from Serato DJ Pro. Loading a song to edit or remix in Serato Studio functions much like loading a track to a deck in Serato DJ Pro. If you are new to Serato Studio you will also see a “first use tour” which will help you become more familiar with features of Serato Studio and how to use them when creating a beat or making a DJ edit.įor DJs who are just starting out with production, Serato Studio’s DJ-focused workflow makes the transition from DJ software to production software easy to understand. Now when you open Serato Studio you are greeted with a new screen that asks if you’d like to create a beat or make a DJ edit, and it will change the initial layout of Serato Studio based around which option you select. Two choices on opening Serato Studio 1.4 makes it easy right from the off, helping beginners to go down one of two routes. Instead of having to open and learn a DAW (digital audio workstation) like Ableton Live to create a custom DJ edit or remix, a DJ can use Serato Studio and get the whole lot done in a fraction of the time.
While there were some workarounds in previous versions of Serato Studio to make DJ edits like quick re-drums, which we covered in this tutorial, the new audio tracks make this more seamless. Serato has just updated its music production software Serato Studio to version 1.4 and it includes a major new feature to help DJs make their own custom DJ edits and remixes, namely audio tracks, which allow DJs to quickly edit whole songs instead of just small samples and loops.
