Did you download the xml file? There is no software to download and install, just that file. Is it the Classic or pro midi fighter? There's a separate file for each and you need to use the correct one. Just drag it into the midi folder in your music folder like he says in the video.
Then you go into Serato and select the correct mapping.

Once you download the mapping (i.e., the xml file) all you need to do to import it is to move the xml file into the "MIDI" subfolder of "_Serato_". The "_Serato_" folder should be located in your "Music" library folder on both Macs and PCs.
If you do not see a "MIDI" folder within "_Serato_", you will need to open Serato Scratch live, go into SETUP->MIDI and create a new blank mapping (the default name is usually "user1"). Once you have created the blank mapping, the MIDI folder should then appear with "_Serato_".
It should also be noted that I tested this mapping using a Rane TTM-57 and sometimes an SL3 box and it worked for both. When we tried using it on our Rane 68 and some of the controls didn't seem to work. My theory is that if you plug it into a Serato mixer that shares some of the same controls (like cue points), Serato disables those controls on any other MIDI controller. I don't know that for sure though.

robin loo 17.08.2011 | again: it is plug and play, no need to install anything besides the mapping for the software you use.
that's a faster 'BAM!!' than installing software |
