File Status and File Type Columns

Serato DJ 4.0 boasts the new File Type and File Status columns. File Status columns identify what kind of file each track is, such as audio, video, helping users quickly identify the type of content in their library. 

The File Status column shows icons that indicate the current condition or special state of a file, such as missing Problem file, read-only, beatgrid locked, or in-progress analysis, allowing users to easily spot files that may need attention or have specific restrictions.
