Hello from vancouver 
I recently purchased a hercules mk4 as an introduction to djing, however I am unsure of which dj program to use. I attended a day class for fundamentals of djing and the instructor advised that I use Serato given most dj's use serato, and that you chance a hassle or troubleshooting issues if you go to play somewhere and the set up is serato and you have virtual dj or ableton, but upon downloading serato I have had nothing but problems. All drivers are current and I've uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times, the midi learn function isn't active, no virtual jogwheels are displayed, no abs, rel, just the two tracks and the file directory below it and a message beside the first track displaying "rane hardware disconnected" do you need the S1 in order to patch the console through?
