  • That mixer looks like the djx700

  • thumbs up if you tried to clean your computer monitor :)

  • very nice!

  • J hope this is not stupid, with the acapelas does it make sense to say you can use the same track with a hip hop instrumental and a house track???? using the pitch of course. Is it also worth asking that if the tempo is not locked it makes it easier to mix with the two genres?

  • NO, --thank Youououou

  • is this possible for a CDJ-400

  • There are no hot cues on the 400 unfortunately. This is one of Pioneers big mistakes for the 400 imo. However, the 400 is compatible as a midi controller, so you may be able to set several of the buttons as hot cues through software such as Traktor, or the Pro DJ software offered by Pioneer. Hope this helps.

  • I would think so...the 400 has master tempo, don't it?

  • I need to practice more on acapellas with the turn tables. I'm pretty good with my computer, but that's totally different. haha

  • keep posting these vids there really helpful, well put 2gether and you give a great discription, could u post more for the Jog Wheel please thnx

  • It also helps if the accapellas are in a similar key. But thats a whole nother video isn't it? :)

  • hahaha!! made me laugh, your spot on tho

  • lol, nice dirt on screen. I remember an episode of the X-files where they made it look like you had roaches on your tv.

  • so easy to understand! genius!!!

  • Nice

  • I like your opinion about Highschool Musical

  • Anyone know anywhere online to get some acapellas? If so, shoot me a message.

  • iTunes has quite a massive collection of singles in pop-genre. Very often those singles also contain accapella-versions of the tracks (check it before you buy it, not all of them do:)

  • where can i fid those vocals?

  • you can dload them over the net... or some vinyls have acapella tracks on them if u prefer using them

  • you got something black on the camera lens. Just saying.

  • god that's distracting haha

  • you thought so too!?? I couldnt watch the whole video because of it. But i am sure its a good video.

  • First; What is acapella?

    Second; What are those black spots in the video?

  • acapella is the lyrics from a song with no music behind it.

  • Thanks. Sorry for the noob question.

  • No such thing as a stupid/noob question

    Practice and enjoy

  • the black spots are on the friggin inside of the camera! j

  • ohh so I was sitting here trying to get dirt off my screen and it wasn't really there? I feel like a right idiot haha

  • Haha, all right :]

  • hung drawn and quater

    high

    school

    musical

    great video

  • he is from uk , not USA.

  • lol I agree about high school musical. great tute

  • what is the song and the accapella's??

  • i think the same about high school musical

  • This was a really fantastic tutorial. I need to think about investing in some CDJ's in the future, those hot cues seem so cool to use, especially in acapella situations like this one.

  • please please a video on passive and active speakers please what's the difference and why which is which and whats best for a Dj

  • passive means that the speaker needs an amplifier to work.

    active means that an amplifier is built in the speaker.

    active is handy when you dont want hassle with alot of speakers ,cables and amp's

    BUT active speakers are heavier and normally a lot more expensive

  • thanx a lot man I apriciate it if u got any recommendations about what brands are better for a Dj u know not very expensive and good sound quality :) thnx again

  • Hahaha, wow, great acapela tutorial. I would've never thought of using 3+ acapelas in my mixes. Thanks J :D

  • thanks alot man. ur vids help me alot

  • Thanks J very nice video.

    I think every DJ should appreciate that you are so motivated to share your awesome skills with the world.

  • gud vid j

  • Hot cue A: Kelis - Milkshake (Acapella)

    Hot cue B: ID - ID (Acapella)

    Hot cue C: Ralphi Rosario Ft. Xavier Gold - You Used To Hold Me (Acapella)

  • so where do you get your acapellas?

  • try e bay i got a load from there, also try i tunes some singles get released with the acapella

  • That takes alot pitch control skills and your ears must be also good to hear the right tempo ...

    For those of you who do not have the CDJ 1000's, try it with the in-loop sampler of your mixer, but there you must pre-set the BPM first, and then bring it in by pressing the buttons.

    Quite an advanced technique, but if youre good at it you can produce awsome "remixes" of your songs, on the fly.

    Arghh High School Musical ... plastic commerce pure >( not good for her : /

  • that was good i liked that were to you get the acapelas from

    thx

  • Try on Ebay, type in "acapella" and you should turn up with somethin.

    Also try to find a compilation of accapellas entitled "Acapella heaven Vol. 1-3"

  • haha high school musical argh i hate it lol

    but good video j thanks again

  • FIRST!!
