Mixed in Key does everything he has printed on his CD's automatically. The software makes my life so much easier, best $50 on djing spent ever, only problem is that you have to purchase the mac and pc versions separate which seriously sucks. But you should def have a copy of this software. If you wanna mix like him you gotta use it, funny thing virtual dj is the only software with key detection software built in (idk how accurate it is) but funny fact nonetheless.

[DJExstremlyAdictive]

220p jeezus

[MoEE3703]

some people dont have recall cues nd hot cues

[k3vn24]

Can I download that simple kick drum he uses or do I have to make it? It's perfect and I've heard him do it at some festivals he's played at.

[TuFFJaMpower]

nice, that's the 'Loft' bar at Ministry of Sound. Must of been recorded before one of his shows.

[clen179]

@Gwilin either, do it at home by, matching the key using scales, or you can you look up the key on beatport, just make sure you write down what the key is so you remember it. Also you could buy and download mixedinkey for 58 dollars and it will examine and display all the keys on your tracks, also it is an introduction to harmonic mixing.

[Gwilin]

Amazing video, but how do you tell what key a song is in?

[precA63]

@Gwilin mixed in key, or u can do it by ear

[pedrin2]

@Gwilin

use Virtual Dj... this program shows what key the tune is..

he show in numbers like " 2a .. 3a.." or in chords like "d minus... g..."

sorry poor english

[eximes]

One pepole can't mix :)

[irh007]

[irh007]

Anyone know what is used /how he determines the key of a track

[VoteForClaudio]

@irh007 some software like virtual DJ tells you when you load the track

[chrisci10]

@irh007 Mixed in Key - google it ;-)

[PistoleroGordito]

whats the song he mixed into L.E.D????

[fitrihadidotcom]

Why you record this video using calculator???

[psycodoood]

[giancarlosanchez5]

@DJGeorgioBitar thanks and does armin beatmatch without a soundwave? or does it display it in the cdj

[milzdeejay]

Thats The Loft room at the mos, played in that room :)

[850iStyle]

lmao terrible cameraman 

[swaggajacka88]

the reason why he's number one is cuz he actually PRACTICES =) not hard to tell with all the info he's giving

[MrJellyFace]

to smart of a dj, true dj, uses his brain . simple as that :)

[imawesome11xx]

what's the intro song?

[Keynius]

This tutorial helped me alottt in DJin. Alot of shit you can learn here.

[Dinimess2k7]

So clever!

[theomaralsayed]

i know its only beat, but whats the song that has the same beat as the main song he was playing?

[aebrownz]

@theomaralsayed l.e.d. there be light by rank 1

[orantaub]

good job armin!

[creeeeep]

Yes armins always prepared for encores............

[foxdroad]

armin teaching you how to mix is like jordan teaching you how to play basketball

[m1ghostsniper]

learned a few things.... thanks armin !

[xXCGOXx]

hes a fucking god djing...

[Ninosilvio]

I have got to get me one of these cdj's ;) don't have no magic cue card :(

[VincentX202]

Armin's not only a DJ but a genius

[mawsko]

he put in the time to burn individual tracks and label em each with key and bpm - thats the work you gotta put in to be a pro like this man. cue cards and premade intro are essential if you dj at the scale he does.

[dogger37JC]

How to mix from A Dj that is more concerned about interacting with the crowd than really mixing. So overrated.

[sandmarch7]

@dogger37JC hes no erick morillo or roger sanchez but he brings his sets together in a way thats really only possible with planning. I havent seen too many djs just show up with no idea of what they will do (i.e. no planning, no practice) and just rock the place. When youre in front of 800 to 2000 people and never once acknowledge the crowd, youre ither dj Bad Boy Bill or you probably need more practice if it takes absolutely everything you got just to eq and effect.

[dogger37JC]

@sandmarch7

He's not a lot of Dj's who actually do actual on the fly mixing and are creative. He like so many trance Dj's just play tracks and that is about it. There are plenty of talented Dj's who don't plan there sets ahead of time. I can't count how many Dj's I've heard in interviews that say exactly that. But then Dj's like AVB tend to play the same sets every place they go...

[sandmarch7]

@dogger37JC Id agree with you for the most part but it comes down to the fact that there is no one way to do this and honestly,AVB gets payed just like the rest of them no matter what we say. At that point you just have to decide what you want to listen to and turn away if you dont like it. I dont know too many DJ critics who get payed for it

[sandmarch7]

@dogger37JC Now if youre mixing on three or four decks at once, constantly dropping acappellas and bringing pieces of tracks in and out its probably for the best that u pay most of your attention to the gear. Either way, this is a pro DJ sharing some info. I know from seeing him live that hes not even scraping the tip of what he knows or can do.

[giancarlosanchez5]

but with software it saves all your cues right?

[OUWATZAHLE08]

how can you make those cue point cd i want one somebody?

[PatarDj]

IMO, why bother carrying around 100's of cd's when you can just use a laptop?

[mf2230]

@PatarDj because not every club has a serato setup, and not everyone wants to buy serato. 'IMO' your opinions are retarded

[OUWATZAHLE08]

CUE POINT CHEATER OMG DID NOT KNOW THAT !

[killum66]

@OUWATZAHLE08 Everyone uses cue points!

[kev797]

what is the first song called ?

[Keynius]

Wow alot I didn't even know. Very helpful tips.

[lloung88]

God the camera man sucks. 

[FamelVlonster]

W&w-DNA

[Tand0oriCh1cken]

@Dry4ds0n Yeah I can understand that, I'm Indian and I know we do it to sometimes because it feels like its better to talk in a certain manner so that people can understand what were saying properly.

[Yodude300]

what track is he playing??

[MrDjNickone]

black shirt? wtf!?

[Tand0oriCh1cken]

Why is he talking with a bit of a british accent :S

[thunderstruckdrummer]

@Tand0oriCh1cken  because he's dutch

[Tand0oriCh1cken]

@thunderstruckdrummer So Dutch people talk with fake accents?

[toineisgroots]

@Tand0oriCh1cken What accent should talk with then? Lame dutch accent? come on....

[7Trance4life]

amazing! Nice tutorial ;)



[AdamChased]

Awesome!

[TurkishMusician313]

@janiskaplis i'm Armin fan but you are really suck with this words

[janiskaplis]

@TurkishMusician313 nd why`s that?:D

[MrElectrohousebeat]

@janiskaplis isnt that what messi said to ronaldo

[michaelskydj]

@janiskaplis you really think AVB is god? really?

[janiskaplis]

@michaelskydj Nd u don`t?!

[VoteForClaudio]

@janiskaplis the funny part about this is that if you ever see him live, it really does feel and look like you are watching God deliver a mindblowing performance.

[janiskaplis]

@VoteForClaudio Don`t worry,I`ve saw him in 2005 sensation white ;)

[LUARASUX]

@janiskaplis lame comment bro,why does everybody hate him? your just jelly becuase that nigga can pull in bitches haha

[Su04ara]

крутатенюшка

[assais]

if you're smart and use a current software like Traktor you can store up to 8 cue points right there in front of you, without the need of messing around whit sd cards to store them. cdjs are dead. bring on the digital djing age

[DASTmusic]

@assais Digital has no passion.

[BYDMeltingPot]

@DASTmusic Amen to that.

[edyken77]

@assais rekordbox lets you set cue points. And cdjs are nice because you just bring your music and don't have to fiddle with setting up a laptop. I don't think cdjs will be dead anytime soon. Also noboby is really using cds with them anymore either.

[assais]

thats a shitty intro. and i hate when he fakes that british accent when he's in the Uk

[changolion31]

Sin tan solo entendiera lo que dice :(

[EdisonLaw9811]

@KanjiiWins I wanna know that song 2

[tamerursavas]

aha soo the sd card slot at my pioneer is only for making cue points and not for MP3's

[entev]

@KanjiiWins rank 1 - L.E.D there be a light

[DjCrossfadah]

aight! the worlds best dj uses the bpm counters on the pioneers XD

[annas20087]

TRUULY LIIFE IS IN HIS HANDS !!!!

[Epidemic747]

wish they did an overview camera angle i want to see his movements with his hands

[Epidemic747]

God of Trance DJing/Mixing/Producer..listen up and learn from the best or fall like the rest

[bondizzy]

Where do you get those que cards from? What are they?

[NotoriousMLC]

@bondizzy they are just SD cards with memory locations set on them. laidback luke does the same thing.

[pdzeller]

@bondizzy pioneer CDJs have a software called "record box" you pre program the hot cues using the software, store the data on an SD card and then the CDJ recognizes the data on the SD card. CDJ-2000 and 900s allow you to link up to 4 CDJs, and have all your tunes, hot cues, etc on one single USB flash drive or SD card, all courtesy of record box

[NotoriousMLC]

he's just amazing...
