There are two main ways to route Serato’s’ audio into SYQEL.
1: First, if you are using Realtek Desktop Audio, that will show up here in the drop-down menu.
2: We can use a Virtual Audio Cable.
Let’s go over how to set up Serato’s audio preferences.
1: In Serato DJ, navigate to the top right and select settings (both windows and mac)

Back in SYQEL, we need to select our parameters in our drop down menu.
1: Select “Line 1” Virtual audio cable as your input.
2: Then, select the playlist you created earlier.
3: Finally, if you saved any audio presets in the frequency reactiveness menu, select those here as well.
Before we start our visualizer, let’s go over how to route your audio on MacOS.
For users who are on Mac the process is much simpler. When you click on “Make audio available to other applications” you will be prompted to download Serato Virtual Audio. Follow the given prompt and you are set to go!
