Auto Loop
In Auto Loop mode, each pad triggers or releases an auto-loop of a different length. The software's
loop grid determines the size of the loop.
To enter Auto Loop mode, press Auto Loop .
To set an auto loop, press a pad for the desired loop length.
Roll
In Roll mode (Serato DJ Pro only), each pad triggers a momentary loop roll. Releasing the pad stops
the loop roll and resumes normal playback where the playhead would be if you had not triggered the
loop roll (i.e., as if the track had been playing forward the whole time).
To enter Roll Mode, press Auto Loop a second time.
To trigger a loop roll, press and hold a pad.
Fader Cuts
In Fader Cuts mode, the pads will mute and unmute the deck's audio signal in a way that emulates
crossfader movements toward that deck.
To enter Fader Cuts mode, press Fader Cuts .
To perform a fader cut, press a pad. The bottom four pads are only available with Serato DJ Pro.
Slicer
Important: Your track must have a set beatgrid for this mode to work.
In Slicer mode (Serato DJ Pro only), the eight pads represent eight sequential beats—"slices"—in the
beatgrid. The currently playing slice is represented by the currently lit pad; the light will "move
through the pads" as it progresses through each eight-slice phrase. You can press a pad to play that
slice. When you release the pad, the track will resume normal playback from where it would have
been if you had never pressed it (i.e., as if the track had been playing forward the whole time).
To enter Slicer mode, press Fader Cuts a second time. The deck will exit Slicer mode if you
load another track to the deck or enable Grid Edit mode.
To play a slice, press the corresponding Pad .
Sampler
In Sampler mode, each pad triggers a sample, which you can assign in the software.
To enter Sample mode, press Sample .
To play a sample, press a pad.
To stop playback, or to load a sample if the slot is empty, press Shift and a pad.
Scratch Banks
In Scratch Banks mode (Serato DJ Pro only), each pad loads a song to the selected deck. You can
assign the song and set the starting point in the software. This is useful for preparing and performing
with song samples for scratching.
To enter Scratch Banks Mode, press Sampler a second time.
