The Bridge From Music Library to New Tracks Its technology played a key role in Serato’s digital DJing software, and it’s at the heart of Serato Sample, the new plug-in that streamlines the old process of finding, manipulating, and making music with samples of pre-existing audio material.
Serato Pitch ‘n Time was the first, and it’s arguably still the best. Here’s a more recent video demoing how it the modern incarnation works: Pitch ‘n Time’s ability to change the tempo of audio without changing its pitch, and vice versa, blew everyone away-and it didn’t even do it in real-time. While Serato Sample feels like the first music production plug-in from New Zealand’s giant of DJ software, it’s actually a 20-year journey coming full circle for the company.īack in 1998, when the idea of “elastic audio” was still a fantasy and not a standard feature in music software, Serato got its start with the Pitch ‘n Time plug-in for Pro Tools. There’s no faster or easier way to pinpoint the samples you want from a song or other audio file and then use them in your music. The Bottom Line:As digital DJs with thousands of tracks, you’ll have thousands of mini sample packs as well using Serato Sample. There’s no faster or easier way to pinpoint and then use them in your music. The Find Samples button often chose the same repeating sound in a loop. The Bad:No preset saving or sample exporting. Great-sounding pitch shifting and time stretching. Low-to-zero-latency performance and excellent stability. The Good:Fast, DJ-inspired workflow for locating, altering, and performing cue point samples from pre-recorded audio within music production software. System Requirements: Mac OS 10.10 and higher Windows 7 with SP1+ (64-bit only).Officially Tested DAWs: Ableton Live, Image Line FL Studio, Apple Logic Pro, NI Maschine (You can also use other AU/VST host software.).Supported Audio formats: AAC, AIFF, FLAC, M4A, MP3, MP4, OGG, WAV.We run it through Ableton Live and other popular DAWs to dissect the good from the bad with this audio-slicing workhorse. Using technology that Serato has perfected over 20 years, Sample could be the music production plug-in that DJs have been waiting for. The just-released Serato Sample plug-in borrows features from the Serato DJ software to reinvent the art of chopping and tweaking samples for use in original music.
