What would it take to have a custom Soul Strut s.erato disc made, 7" style? Shit needs to happen, you know?

    Email Serato pressings. They're pretty easy to deal with and a TON would be sold just off the serato control vinyl collectors.

    How come no one's ever done a formal (i.e. not promo) version of a 7" with the 45 hole?

    Actually it's practically impossible to get a legit serato control disc into manufacturing unless you are stonesthrow etc.
    I proposed a few (what I thought) were great ideas including te or you listed Odub but they were disinterested and told me thier production scedule qas filled for the next two years

    aight.

    So I'm making them anyways and they will be available this summer at te store.

    Hollz!

    45 size? Jyeah!

    yes sir, big holes.

    i am just working on perfect the lock groove/loop technology on the flip side of the disc so you can drop the 45 and it loops indefinitely at the end on a break or something.

    I did the same thing and got the same response. They're pretty much just interested in Stonesthrow and odd niche crap like Starkey. I was proposing some LA gangster rap on dodger blue but nope. I'm thinking of going over to Traktor, from what I've seen it's a lot doper.

    I'm surprised Stones Throw hasn't done a 7" yet. Seems completely obvious for them.

    You sure those are 7"s? They don't have the "big hole" and the site's own description says they're "2xLP" which suggests 12"s.

    Will someone please make a scratchy seal sir otto disc? Seems obvious to throw some skip-less scratches on one side, nothing fancy maybe an ahhh and a fresh amongst others, and a tone on the other, not sure why this hasn't happened yet.

    I have the Jazzman 7" control discs with Mr. Clean - What's going on on the flip.
    Pretty nice, but still small hole.

    I had those too (lost 'em, wah) but the small hole + 33/3rd made them kind of pseudo 7"s.

    We need a REAL 45 RPM disc batches.

    the amount of control you have over effects...the compatible hardware...the fact that you can use 4 decks...the quality of the control tone and lack of latency issues.

    There's a Stokyo scratch record out, that's the only official scratch record with a S.erato tone that exists.

    There is a Scratchy Seal record coming out with a tone on the other side but it will be for use with Traktor.

    As for a 7" the Jazzman is the only official release so far, aside from a couple of promo ones Serato did that are rare as hell, one of which has the big hole.

    This just came out today...new midi controller for Serato from Novation...looks pretty fresh

    The functionaility looks cool, but the actual design device looks terrible. Should have made it match the Techs or at least be a lot more minimal

    yeah I've been debating but I think I'm going with this midi controller.

    http://www.native-instruments.com/#/en/products/dj/traktor-kontrol-x1/

    works fine with Serato and will work even better with Traktor if I decide to go that route
