Serato DJ Pro Keyboard Shortcuts Poster

A printable, framed-quality poster of the essential Serato DJ Pro shortcuts for Mac — the keys worth keeping in view, designed to stay readable on a wall.

Edition

Free PNG is web-resolution & lightly watermarked.

Customise this poster Pick the shortcuts, restyle the colours — download free. Get the framed-quality print Full 300 DPI, print-ready — at home or shipped to your door.

Serato DJ Pro lets you mix and perform entirely from your laptop, and its keyboard shortcuts speed up the workflow when you are away from a controller. Load tracks, trigger cues and loops, fire samples, and navigate your library without touching the mouse. Shortcuts use a US keyboard layout: on Windows [control] maps to [Command] and [Alt] maps to [Option] on Mac. Note that if 'Playback Keys Use Shift' is enabled, playback keys also require Shift or Caps Lock.
