Feb 12, 2012  In 2008, Vestax and Serato created a new DJ console for the next generation-the VCI-300+ITCH. The goal was clear-to design a lightweight and compact digital DJ instrument with the touch of analog control. Preserving the concept of the VCI-300+ITCH, the VCI-300MKII has usability improvements based on feedback from VCI-300. Vestax VCI-300 The Vestax VCI-300 is a hardware and software bundle that transforms your laptop into a professional, portable DJ rig. Easily the coolest feature on the Vestax VCI-300 is the pair.

The Serato DJ upgrade news is last week’s chip wrapper in internet terms. But when Vestax do us the rare honour of sending through a press release about the VCI-400 getting the upgrade, I extend it the common courtesy of reading it. And it seems that it was well worth the read, because while existing VCI-400 owners still have to pay for the Serato DJ Intro to full DJ upgrade, new VCI-400 buyers will get it chucked into the deal for a limited time.

Here are the very rare official words from Vestax HQ:
