So far, Serato is a fluke! I have had Serato for a couple of years. I lost money on gigs due to Serato malfunctioning, stumbling and stuttering on me! I have e-mailed Serato to fix this problem for good and got no answers! I have given Serato an ultimatum to fix their hiccups once and for all or I will report them as disreputable!

Good software however, minor bugs I have been using Serato for over 2 years now and the software is great! The only thing is that the MIDI has a bug. So if you want to change the pitch/speed range on the fader it will change the range, so when I am adjusting the pitch/speed it keeps changing from +-8% to +-16% then to +- 50% so I have to go though the settings to stop this from happening and have a +-16% range. Overall I would recommend Serato.

Serato Studio is perfect BUT! Serato Studio is perfect for beginners, and those that just want a user friendly DAW, but I would would make a few changes that I’m sure would help. Suggestions: Strum Effect on first count/Automation duplicating/Trimming scenes in song view.✅ XPand!2 and Gross Beats plugin(s) can’t be used in serato studio. Also, there is no way to copy automation from one page of Scene 1 to every other page within Scene 1.🎬 Let me explain why my hands are exhausted. I wanted the 1st and 3rd beat/chord of every page in Scene 1 at -16.6db. I prefer your 📊bar graph option rather than your 📈line graph option when automating, but I still had to do each page by hand.✍🏾 That means with 8 pages in Scene 1, I had to make a total of 64 adjustments, since each page is in 1/16’s. Basically, implementing my own version of sidechain.⛓️ Finally, a way to add a grace note (Strum Effect) before the first beat of piano when playing a chord would be nice. This would allow my piano to roll into the very first chord. I thought about shortening scene 1 to 2 bars, but then all other scenes would be 2 bars. Also, there is no way to trim the scene in song view, so I couldn’t do that as an alternative either.📝

Signed up to demo Serato Sample 2.0, Signed up to demo Serato Sample 2.0, Was really happy with the results so at €149 I wanted to do the subscription for a month (€12.99) until I could justify the full license. Signed up and immediatly had a Login error. Error 1009 (which isnt on their list of Error codes) So I began the usual troubleshoot for this kind of online verification. Tried absolutly everything their website had to offer as far as Troubleshoting and more. I raised a ticket 3weeks ago and Ive paid for nothing. Their Support model is to literally redirect me to the troubleshooting pages which I explained I had tried numerous times. They have me goinhg in circles, with a 48hr turnaround I contacted them via other platforms (IG) and the same deal. Absolutly awful support. Ive been an Audio engineer for 20+ years and can honestly say Ive never come a company as bad at communication as this. Avoid at all costs, they just want your money and do not care. Ive been gaslit by them for 3 weeks now and Im ready to give up. They say its my internet, but Im communicating to them on that very same internet pulling good speedS. AWFUL JUST AWFUL
