Win Big with Serato Sample 2 Remix Contest

There’s lots to be excited about the capabilities of Serato Sample 2, especially its ground-breaking STEMS feature. This tool lets DJs isolate vocals, melody, bass, or drums in any sample they throw into the Sample 2.0 plugin. Beyond just slicing up samples with the pads, DJs can also play any sound chromatically using the keyboard mode. The pitch and time algorithms are so robust that DJs can drastically change tempo and key without losing quality.
