Default Serato...

I've used Serato Scratch Live for the last year or so, and I wouldn't use anything else. It is ROCK SOLID. I run it with a Mac PowerBook G4 1.5ghz w/1gb of RAM, and 2 external firewire drives with all of my music. I haven't had one problem. I used to get smacked with extra baggage charges when I traveled, but not anymore! 6000+ songs in my backpack. Don't believe the hype on all of the other imitators, Serato is the way to go.

And to reply to some of your comments... Serato has no "automatic beat match" function. If you use it like I do, or most DJs for that matter, you do all of your pitch adjustments with the turntable's pitch control. As for "taking the hunt out of certain records"... I still collect vinyl vigorously. Except now I only have to record a rare record once, and I can play it millions of times with no wear and tear.
