Analyzing tracks

When one of this unit’s [LOAD (INST.DOUBLES)] buttons is pressed and tracks are loaded onto the decks, the tracks are analyzed, but some time may be required until analysis is completed and the BPM and waveform are displayed.

When the Serato DJ software is used as an offline player, tracks can be analyzed ahead of time. For tracks whose analysis has been completed, the BPM and waveform are displayed immediately when the tracks are loaded onto the decks.

For details on using the Serato DJ software as an offline player and instructions on analyzing tracks, see the Serato DJ software manual.

!Depending on the number of tracks, some time may be required for analysis.
