Serato Video released & Fatboy Slim featured icon artist

The fine folks from Serato in NZ have just announced the release of the long awaited upgrade to VideoSL, simply named “Serato Video”. The new plugin is purchased direct from Serato only, but on top of integrating all the features VJ’s have been asking for that may have been missing on previous versions, the new plugin now works with Itch and Scratch Live the same.

Since some of us here at DDJG are Video SL users,  we found out quickly that Serato offers the luxury of a free upgrade from VideoSL to Serato Video, so definitely grab yourself the new version if you are a previous user, or grab the demo at no charge to test it out with your system and see if stepping in to video is right for you.

To celebrate the release, they have launched the new “Icon Artist” series highlighting some of the DJs who have been continuosly embraced technology and pushed the boundaries for all of us in the industry. Who better to kick it off, than the man himself… Fat Boy Slim? Video below…
