timecode send to external devices

Hello It would be possible to implement the ability to assign timecode audio to each song in such a way that when the DJ plays a song, said audio starts by sending the timecode track through a channel that other devices such as video servers, lighting consoles could receive. ...it would be a great advance to be able to do certain types of shows. thank you very much for your attention

You can split the signal before attack other targets but these should implement timecode audio signal as valid input.
If you are talking about "processed" value of noiseMap (it's not audio timecode as other AFAIK) then you should take a look into Quartz Composer and maybe you will find something to work with.

If you expect Serato implementing something like "jog to external mapping" my gut says "hardly after The Bridge/Mixtape fail" but hopefully they prove me wrong...

IDK if Serato Video implement dmx or any other kind of protocol/universe so wait for other users answers to see if I miss something.

Cheers.

Good morning and thank you for your response, I think that this solution is not feasible given that what I need to do in my case is for each song to have a different time code, example:
song 1 time from 00:00:00

song 2 time from 00:05:00

This is necessary since from my lighting control (Ma in this case) each sequence would be linked to a different time code in each song.

Maybe there’s a tool that can send timecode “cues” like you described and get Serato synced by Ableton link.

It will not be so perfect like you described solution but maybe workable and ready at this moment (instead requiring update). Also check any linkable solution for Serato out there and see if someone did it.

I think maybe it could be possible implement something like you described in QC but not 100% sure so maybe asking Serato support themselves could be a faster path.

Regards.
