Troubleshooting
Controller not recognized by computer
Ensure the Mini-USB cable is securely connected to both the controller and the computer. Try a different USB port or cable. Make sure you have installed the necessary drivers or Serato DJ Lite software.
No sound output from main or headphone jacks
Check that your speakers or headphones are properly connected to the correct outputs. Verify that the master volume and headphone cue level are turned up in both the controller settings and within Serato DJ Lite. Ensure the correct audio device is selected in Serato DJ Lite's preferences.
Jog wheels not responding to touch or scratching
Ensure the jog wheels are clean and free from debris. Restart the controller and the DJ software. Check the sensitivity settings within the DJ software if available.
Software crashing or freezing
Ensure your computer meets the minimum system requirements. Close other unnecessary applications running in the background. Update Serato DJ Lite to the latest version. Check for macOS or Windows updates.
