After years of development, Phase has released a collaboration with Serato DJ Pro to offer the best turntable setup possible. With exciting new features and possibilities turntable DJs didn’t have before, see what special lies behind this integration! 

What is the Phase x Serato HID Integration?

How does it work 

The brand-new update has been released together with Serato DJ Pro version 2.5 and Phase Firmware update 7. This innovative collaboration redefines connectivity by allowing Phase devices to connect directly to laptops via USB, bypassing the need for conventional RCA cables. 

The driving force behind this seamless connection is the HID protocol, known for its remarkable stability and minimal latency compared to traditional RCA and MIDI connections. The HID connectivity is familiar in the context of CDJ controllers. But in order for it to work between a unique product Phase, and Serato DJ Pro, this HID protocol was exclusively tailored to the communication needs of this integration. 

This dedicated protocol enhances communication, ensures precision, and empowers DJs with a seamless, plug-and-play solution, guiding them into a new and flawless turntable mixing era.

What does the Serato integration change for DJs?

• The easiest way to set up your decks 
  This new integration allows you to connect and prepare your setup much faster than any other method. In less than a few seconds, you can connect Phase to Serato DJ Pro, which automatically recognizes the device, and you are ready to spin! 
• Improved Performance
  Directly plugged into the laptop via USB, Phase communicates with Serato with no intermediary. Thanks to a powerful and custom-made HID protocol, the latency is even more reduced in comparison to any other DVS setup. It offers DJs better accuracy and a crisp feeling with every turntable movement. “I use Phase in competitions because the response time is better than needle’s, especially in the HID mode.” DJ Ease, DMC USA Battle for Supremacy champion

• Exclusive features with Serato DJ Pro
  Experience a wealth of new capabilities tailor-made for Phase and Serato DJ Pro HID integration. Introducing the innovative "WIR" mode, a deck mode crafted by Serato for Phase, enabling seamless switching. 

Witness the dynamic auto switch to internal deck mode in case the Remotes run low on battery, ensuring uninterrupted music flow. 

Monitor Phase Remotes' battery levels directly on the Serato screen, which gives the flexibility to have all the important information in one place. 

To avoid running out of juice, a custom LED animation has been created for Phase Remotes, that alarms you when the battery is coming to an end. 

Other LED animations include the “end track warning” feature, flashing LEDs 30 seconds before a track concludes.
