Their collaborations have produced professional-level controllers that are unmatched, both in terms of seamless hardware/software integration and market success. These innovative and groundbreaking DJ tools include the NS7, NSFX, NS7FX, V7 and NS6 professional DJ controllers, all of which were designed to work seamlessly with Serato software.

Numark and Serato continue to bring state of the art DJ gear to DJs of all levels, from newcomers to seasoned pros. Serato DJ Intro software provides DJs with a platform that is solid, intuitive and innovative. As with previous Numark/Serato offerings, Serato DJ Intro will interface seamlessly with Numark DJ controllers, allowing DJs to mix and perform effortlessly, with no need to touch their computer’s keyboard or mouse.

Moving forward, DJs who purchase MIXDECK, MIXDECK EXPRESS, MIXDECK QUAD, MIXTRACK PRO and N4 will receive Serato DJ Intro software in the box. DJs who previously purchased MIXDECK, MIXDECK EXPRESS, MIXDECK QUAD, and MIXTRACK PRO will be able to download Serato DJ Intro software for free from www.serato.com/dj-intro. (Products previously shipped with other software will continue to support that software.)

“This collaboration is a win-win, for Numark and Serato, but most of all for DJs,” said Chris Roman, Numark Product Manager. “Together, Numark and Serato are now giving all DJs, from beginner to professional, the performance tools they need to advance their craft, innovate, and make the most of new technology. “
