Frequently Asked Questions
Which DJ software does the Mixtrack Pro 3 come shipped with?
The Numark Mixtrack Pro 3 comes shipped with Serato DJ Intro. As an option, users can also use Serato DJ 1.7.5 and up with their Mixtrack Pro 3. However, Serato DJ is not free and must be purchased or previously activated.
What are the size of the platters for the Mixtrack Pro 3?
The Numark Mixtrack Pro 3 platters are identical to the Numark NV platters in terms of size. They are 5-inch hyper-responsive metal platters with search and scratch modes. This capacitive, touch-sensitive jog wheel controls the audio when the wheel is touched and moved. When the Wheel button is not active, use the jog wheel to bend the pitch of the track. When the Wheel button is active, use the jog wheel to grab and move the audio, 'scratching' the track as you would with a vinyl record. You can also grab the non-touch-sensitive outer wheel to bend the pitch of the track.
