First Look: Phase Integration with Serato DJ Pro
Two years after first making waves at the NAMM Show, Phase manufacturer MWM has announced a collaboration with Serato. MWM’s needle-replacing hardware is now an Official Serato Accessory, which means it can now communicate with Serato DJ Pro directly through USB.
The upgrade will enhance the overall performance of Phase with Serato thanks to improved HID protocol. MWM also teased other features that will roll out later, including LED customization and more.
On this episode of Tips and Tricks, Mojaxx takes a trip to NAMM in Anaheim, California to report on the collaboration between Serato and Phase. Watch above.
