CS charron S. owner Entertainment ### "Rock a Remix with Serato Studio" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 December 2, 2022 Most Sound Engineer will not mess with Studio because they are so used to Pro tools or other daw linear setup. But the DJs, Electronic artist, and producers will love it for the simplicity. Pros It is very stripped down than other digital audio workstation. This makes it simple and efficient. You can start with the sample by cropping it up and assign slot for play back, rearrange the sample or pitch shift it. You can even start with the beat with drums, bass, keys, strings, etc. with the instruments installed or the artist sample pack online. Then create your clips or sections and, finally arrange them in the timeline. You can even add effects before or during arrangement. Plus, you can add additional audio tracks: now, you can add an accapella, sound effect, or additional recordings. To finish with exporting your song as a MP3, Wav, or separate stems. Cons it needs to power use. run at least 32mb of ram even 64 or more. Switched from [Audacity](https://www.capterra.com/p/214605/Audacity/) I want to manipulate samples easier.
