Ableton and Serato present The Bridge—the first result of the partnership announced in October 2008.
The Bridge spans the gap between music production and DJing, creating a natural link between Ableton Live and Serato Scratch Live or ITCH. The Bridge provides a powerful fusion of DJ and production tools, opening a world of opportunities for DJing, remixing and live performance.
You can cross the Bridge in either direction:
Ableton to Serato
The Bridge provides Ableton Transport Control (ATC), giving you turntable-style control of your own multitrack productions. Simply drag an Ableton Live Set to a deck in Scratch Live or ITCH and use your turntables, CDJ or ITCH controller to control the transport.
Serato to Ableton
The Bridge provides the ultimate mixtape creation tool. DJs can perform mixes in Serato Scratch Live or ITCH and save them as an Ableton Live Set. This way, the DJ can still perform the mix—better than cut and pasting it together in a DAW—but also has detailed editing options.
The Bridge is free for anyone who owns both:
- A registered version of Serato Scratch Live or ITCH hardware and
- Ableton Live 8 or Suite 8
digital DJing is getting more and more exciting every day

Serato Itch has a lot going for it but everyone always mentions the same thing. “man, I wish it had some effects ”. Well your wishes look like they may be coming true very soon. There is leaked information floating around the web that exposes what appears to be a Vestax FX controller designed for Itch.
Ean Golden @ djtechtools.com has many many infos about this new baby, make sure to go and read his post .
The NS7 Controller is a dedicated controller for Serato™ ITCH. It ships with Serato ITCH and comes ready to control the DJ software of your choice, including Serato ITCH and Numark's CUE DJ software. Loads of additional assignable MIDI controllers provide unprecedented software compatibility and user customizations.
Two high-torque, motorized 7" standard platters with a genuine vinyl interface provide pinpoint response with the look and feel of standard turntables. Illuminated easy-to-find controls help you to perform in any lighting conditions.
