DJ Blade's Serato ScratchLIVE Workhorse: The HP Netbook!

Legendary Southern Delaware DJ and Producer, DJ Blade (or "TK Blade" as some fans like to call him) has worked with everything from Turntables in the 80's up to the new generation of CDJ's and just about every DJ and production tool that the industry has seen. His most revolutionary discovery, one which he says has changed the way he DJ's is the use of a tiny, 10" HP Netbook Powered by a 1.6GHZ Atom processor by Pentium and 2GB of RAM running Serato ScratchLIVE SHORT-KUTS™.

His experience with the mini computer has been nothing but exceptional as you'll hear in this interview.

boo. i have the hp mini 210 and cant get the resolution past 1024*600. serato wont start. will downgrading to xp help?

[shortkuts]

@hh73 I would not know if that is a possibility. Sorry. What kind of video do you guys have? That would be the important question I think. If your video drivers are different than his, than it could be a limitation of the video itself, nothing you can do about it I'm afraid, even if you go to XP... :0(

1. Open up "regedit" (registery editer) by searching programs in start menu

2. Search/find “Display1_DownScalingSupported­”

3. Click it and set value to "1"

4. Restart and you will have a higher resolution option.

Works on Windows 7 starter for sure...

@shortkuts

Right click on your desktop, choose Properties, then Settings. I set my resolution to: 1024x768. My Serato settings are maxed out with the exception of the latency set @ 5. Hope that helps!
