Cupe Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 In theory it should be. Take a helping of the rock solid, industry leading, Digital Vinyl System, add a large splash of extremely versatile DJ software (that also functions as a fully featured sequencer), and whisk thoroughly until you have the ideal mix. Sounds easy doesn’t it? But how will they fuse these two dons of the digital world together? Will we be treated to an entirely new concoction, or will the focus be firmly on creating great connectivity between the existing products? That remains to be seen.All we know so far is that Serato and Ableton have announced their new partnership, which they say will “pave the way for the future of Digital Djing”. In the press release, Ableton’s boss Gerhard Behles pointed out that the companies have a lot of common ground. Highlighting the fact that both feel strongly about ensuring the software they produce is extremely reliable and easy to use.Steve West, Serato’s CEO said: “After years of talking together, we’re thrilled to be working with Ableton. It’s exciting to think about what we can offer to DJs and producers: the ability to go beyond just spinning records and add a personal stamp to the music they play.”These are indeed interesting times in the world of the Laptop DJ. With the new Traktor Scratch PRO software set for release in a couple of days, Native Instruments are breathing down Serato’s neck. Hopefully, the competition between these companies will result in some serious boundary pushing that will benefit DJs in the coming months and years.You can read the press release on Ableton’s site.
