The following describes the typical procedure for importing tracks.
! There are various ways to import tracks with the Serato DJ software. For details,
see the Serato DJ software manual.
! If you are already using Serato DJ software (Scratch Live, ITCH or Serato DJ
Intro) and have already created track libraries, the track libraries you have previ-
ously created can be used as such.
! If you are using Serato DJ Intro and have already created track libraries, you may
have to reanalyze the tracks.
1 Click the [Files] key on the Serato DJ software screen to
open the [Files] panel.
The contents of your computer or the peripheral connected to the computer are
displayed in the [Files] panel.
2 Click the folder on the [Files] panel containing the tracks
you want to add to the library to select it.
3 On the Serato DJ software screen, drag and drop the
selected folder to the crates panel.
