Setting Up Decks 3-4 Mode in SoundSwitch for Serato DJ

Setting Up Decks 3-4 Mode in SoundSwitch for Serato DJ


If you prefer mixing with Decks 3-4 on your Serato DJ controller or mixer and want to configure SoundSwitch accordingly, follow these steps to set up Decks 3-4 mode:


 1. Select Deck 3-4 Mode: 

   - Start by opening SoundSwitch and navigating to the SoundSwitch Preferences.

   - Within Preferences, select the "Deck 3-4" option to indicate that you want to work with Decks 3 and 4.



 2. MIDI Map the Faders: 

   - To map the channel faders for Decks 3 and 4 on your mixer to the Faders in Serato Video, follow these steps:


    Step 1:  Open Serato DJ on your computer.


       Step 2:     Open the Serato Video Plugin. Note that you do not need the full version; the demo version is sufficient for this purpose.



       Step 3:     Activate MIDI Mapping by selecting the MIDI button next to "My Serato" in the Top Bar of Serato Video.



       Step 4:     Right-click on the Upfaders within Serato Video and map these to Faders 3 and 4 on your controller or mixer.




       Step 5:     Ensure that the "Link" buttons below the Faders in Serato Video are active.




    Step 6:  Close Serato Video. Once you've completed this setup, you do not need to reopen Serato Video for subsequent sessions.


With Decks 3-4 mode configured in SoundSwitch and the MIDI mapping of channel faders in Serato Video, you'll be ready to mix with Decks 3 and 4 on your controller or mixer.
