This article documents a change in Serato DJ Pro affecting the Pioneer DJ DJM-S11. The software previously allowed users to enable the "Make Audio Available to Other Applications" checkbox to route audio directly into applications such as OBS or QuickTime. As of recent versions, the checkbox is locked until a Virtual Audio Device (VAD) is installed. On Windows this requires third-party paid software such as Virtual Audio Cable Lite. The change has created a retroactive cost and restriction for workflows that once worked out of the box.

The Pioneer DJ DJM-S11 software{{Clarify|Does it affect Pioneer hardware specifically or only Serato software}} previously allowed users to enable the "Make Audio Available to Other Applications" checkbox to route audio directly into applications such as OBS or QuickTime. Later, the checkbox is locked until a Virtual Audio Device (VAD) is installed. On some operating systems like Windows this requires third-party paid software such as Virtual Audio Cable Lite. The change has created a retroactive cost and restriction for workflows that once worked out of the box.
