Today, with their series of DDJ-S controllers for Serato DJ controllers, Pioneer continues to stay on top of the trend toward all-in-one controllers for digital DJ software. Follow our buying guide to find the right Pioneer DDJ Serato controller - from the entry-level DDJ-SB to the best-selling DDJ-SX3. Pioneer DJ DDJ-SB3 4-deck Serato DJ Controller Sells separately for $249.00. The next product in Pioneer DJ's popular DDJ-SB series, the DDJ-SB3 offers even more portable digital DJing power than ever.
- The Pioneer DJ DDJ-SB is compact and portable with a similar layout to the premium DDJ-SX and DDJ-SR controllers. Comes with dedicated filters for each channel and a unique filter-fade crossfader setting.
- Scratch Live is an outdated software which was compatible with the SL2, and that SL2 can be used with Serato DJ (as a free upgrade) but the SB2 was never sold as being able to control Scratch Live. I haven't tested it, but it may be possible to use the SL2 to unlock Serato DJ and the SB2 to control it without having to purchase a license.

Scrollable FX Drop-down Menu
Pioneer Ddj Sb Serato Scratch Live Video
New to Serato DJ 1.5.2 is Scrollable FX Drop down Menus in both single and multi FX mode.
We have optimized the FX drop down menus. Shortening them and adding scroll allows for a larger FX list and stops the list obscuring the library.
Apple created the XQuartz project as a community effort to further develop and support X11 on Mac.
