Beatsource LINK’s Offline Mode is Now Available in Serato DJ
Streaming is the future of DJing, but DJs need to be able to mix with or without an internet connection. Today, we’re excited to announce that Beatsource LINK’s offline mode, which enables DJs to mix without Wi-Fi, is finally available in Serato DJ. The update, which is integrated with Serato DJ Pro 2.5 and Lite 1.5, follows over a month of public beta testing.
Asher “Styles Davis” Finkel, at Beatsource, says:
“We’re super excited to be the first service to bring offline mode for streaming content to Serato DJ. We know that DJs need to build trust with streaming technology, and our offline locker will provide the stability and insurance they need. This is a watershed moment in the way DJs get music.”
Download Serato Pro 2.5 and Lite 1.5 here and start your free trial of Beatsource LINK here.
