Beatport today has announced that Serato users will be able to power LINK directly from the latest version of Serato DJ Pro.

Beatport LINK allows users to seamlessly and spontaneously choose from the millions of tracks available on Beatport’s catalog directly through their DJ gear using Serato, with critical track information like BPM and waveforms available in real time. Users can also directly access all of the site’s charts and playlists, as well as create their own LINK playlists.

A DJ of any skill level, whether a beginner, hobbyist, or a seasoned club veteran, can cue up the music they want to play via LINK and immediately start mixing tracks in Serato without purchasing individual MP3s.

“With streaming being such a big part of the world of music, we’re excited to have worked with Beatsource and Beatport to bring their comprehensive catalogs to our DJs,” says Serato’s Chief Strategy Officer Nick Maclaren. “The ability to instantly access such large collections of open format and electronic music gives DJs even more freedom, creativity, and, importantly, choice.”

Beatport LINK is available in 3 tiers: Basic, with high-quality streaming and full track playback on the Store for $14.99 per month; LINK PRO with premium quality streaming, full track playback on the Store, and a 50 track Offline Locker for $29.99 per month; and LINK PRO+ with premium quality streaming, full track playback on the Store, and a 100 track Offline Locker for $44.99 per month. 

Although the Offline Locker functionality is not yet available for Serato, the development teams for both Serato and Beatport plan on releasing an update with the feature activated for PRO and PRO+ users soon.
