Ok so i recently bought a pioneer ddi-sx i love the hardware and features. Before i was using a hercules controller for virtual dj. Now using virtual dj i never had problems with bpm detection. Bpm detections were ALWAYS accurate and the beat grids were always exact.
Using sera to i have gotten super addicted to it i love it, except one thing. It's bpm detection sucks.. and I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong. Everyone says that serato is as professional as dj software gets. Then why can't it detect bpm's properly. At first the only bpm detection issues i was having were with trap. I was getting half bpms a lot which i could tolerate. I just specified the bpm window. It still upset me because i NEVER had to do that with virtual dj
Recently i was stumbling across the song in my library iron tony romera remix. I had played this track often on vdj and i remembered the bpm was 126. But sera to analyzed the bpm as 94. I analyzed it again and again i used each bpm window for it yet nothing worked.
so i ended up looking for the bpm on beat port and then manually entering it. Its just really nerve racking to wonder if the bpm's of songs in your library are even correct. I have a lot of songs and i can't manually check each one. I never had to worry about this in vdj. could it be something I'm doing wrong? or is serato just a really new software. Everyone says its super professional. IT has great features but if it can't do something as simple as bpm detection i might have to go back to vdj
