EVERYONE!!!! YOU DONT CHANGE THE COLOR ON THE CONTROLLER!!! You change them in Serato and you have to choose a color for EVERY single damn song for it to be displayed on the controller!!!!. Make sure you are USB connected to your laptop, Serato open and then do the steps in the video just like it told you by turning it on while holding the shift and play button on the left side and keep holding it until boot up is done. Once it looks like it's done booting up, you can stop holding down the shift & play buttons and now focus on the 3 FX buttons on the top right side of the deck which now one of the FX buttons should be lit up (IGNORE THE LEFT SIDE OF THE DECK). Basically FX1 is standard Red/Orange; FX2 is Blue (On Vinyl Mode it turns White) BUT FX3 is White by default but lets you choose a color in Serato. So go ahead and choose the FX button option you want then turn off the controller and then turn it back on again normally. Your selection will be applied. For FX3, keep reading. Now in Serato, next to your library on the left you have 2 columns (Not in your Crates! You've gone too far; it's the columns in between your crates and library). The column on the left will show if it's a video, locked or a "?" if the track isn't found, etc. To the right of that it looks like its a bar separating the information I just described and your library of songs, but that is where you choose the color! RIGHT CLICK ON IT AND THAT LITTLE PANEL OF COLORS WILL POP UP. Choose the color, load up the track and your jog wheel should now be that color. Have fun doing that for your entire library. Sorry for the caps and the long explanation but I was having a hard time too with this until I finally figured it out and I wanna help you guys!!! Hope that explains it.
I’ve been having a problem with my controller. My DJ board does not light up after putting a song on. I can’t use my hot cue buttons or anything. Do you know the issue?
Hey ! First turn your sr2 off and on again If it doesn't work, advise you to check the Pioneer DDJ-SR2 FAQ or even contact the support if it persists. when you are in the parameter mode be careful not to touch everything because each button modifies a parameter. I hope I could have helped
just for information, if you have selected the third mode (when the color of your jogs change depend of the color tag of your track on serato) you have to put a color tag on your track on serato if not, your jog will not iluminate i hope it may help
Hey ! here is a translation. I hope it will help : Para cambiar esto tendrás que poner el controlador en modo utilidad; cerrar todas las aplicaciones Con el mando apagado, mantén pulsados los botones [SHIFT] y [PLAY/PAUSE] de la parte izquierda del mando y enciéndelo Una vez en el modo de utilidad, verá iluminado uno de los tres botones [FX PARAMETER] del lado derecho de su controlador (probablemente el primero de los tres) cada [FX PARAMETER] representa un modo de iluminación diferente para las jog wheels. [FX PARAMETER1] - Dará información de color dependiendo del deck activo como se mencionó anteriormente [FX PARAMETER2] - Dará información de color dependiendo del estado de la jogwheel 'vinyl'; Si el modo [VINYL] está activado, la jog wheel será azul. Si el modo Vinilo está desactivado, la jogwheel no se iluminará. [PARÁMETRO FX3] - Dará retroalimentación de color según la etiqueta de color guardada en el archivo en Serato DJ.

How do I activate vinyl?
You have to press « shift » + « slip mode » to activate/desactivate the vinyl mode 😉
Viadd so once I press shift and start/ pause and it turns on do I then do that vinyl activation process?
No, you activate/desactivate the vinyl mode when your sr2 is opened normally (when you can mix)
Viadd I tried that didn’t work
Ok. I have sold my SR2 so i can’t try. Can you do the same thing as the video but this time select the FX Parametre 2 on the left side ?
This didn't work for me
I can’t change the jog wheel color it doesn’t work for me
Hi ! What step doesn't work for you ?
Changing the LED lights
I wanna change the color of the jog wheels
In spanish please.
Hey ! here is a translation. I hope it will help :
Para cambiar esto tendrás que poner el controlador en modo utilidad;
cerrar todas las aplicaciones
Con el mando apagado, mantén pulsados los botones [SHIFT] y [PLAY/PAUSE] de la parte izquierda del mando y enciéndelo
Una vez en el modo de utilidad, verá iluminado uno de los tres botones [FX PARAMETER] del lado derecho de su controlador (probablemente el primero de los tres) cada [FX PARAMETER] representa un modo de iluminación diferente para las jog wheels.
[FX PARAMETER1] - Dará información de color dependiendo del deck activo como se mencionó anteriormente
[FX PARAMETER2] - Dará información de color dependiendo del estado de la jogwheel 'vinyl'; Si el modo [VINYL] está activado, la jog wheel será azul. Si el modo Vinilo está desactivado, la jogwheel no se iluminará.
[PARÁMETRO FX3] - Dará retroalimentación de color según la etiqueta de color guardada en el archivo en Serato DJ.
First
I don't get it. Nothing happened.
