I would be really careful using this type of mixing, cause there's no worse partypoop then when the dj switches track at your favourite part of a song.
@gerardtrees1 you need to press the play/pause button twice and then press the cue button that way the song wont start from the beginning the song will start were ever you paused it
@gerardtrees1 you need to press pause on the spot were you want the beat to come in press pause twice and then press the cue button and then the beat will come in strait away
hey J im kinda new to dj stuff but if i buy a behringer eurolive b212d PA and a pioneer dj controller do i need another mixer or can i just plug in the PA`s inte the inbuilt mixer from the controller? and im also wondering if i dont have the controller and dont have a mixer can I still play music whith my PA`s connected to an ipod or another source? please need answer :)
M N M when I'm gone -- R Kelly I believe can fly -- Out cast, Ms. Jackson -- Chevelle The clencher -- Brian Adams everything I do I do it for you -- AHA Take me on -- Mr. Big To be with you?? why is that all the "how to" mixes I find are all done with "dance" house/techno/trance music?? what about rock/metal and balads??
@DJChafe Those styles you`ve mentioned house/techno/trance are made for djs, they have intro and outro to make the mix easier and smoother. Some other styles arent made for djs, they are mainstream commercial tunes and have 10 sec intro. Hip Hop usualy(not always) doesn`t have that intro and outro bit, so you gotta know a bit of scratching to make good mixes.
The other styles you asked about, pretty much, be creative, use some filter or an echo and make a smooth transition. Good luck mate! ;-)
@Tulhera aahhhh yes, creative is fun but make a chalange and try somthing like jazz/blues mixed into house/techno!! I'd love to c some one try that!!
I have a question, howcome you're moving the jog wheels then moving the speed when you can just play the song in your headphones and move the speed to sync them??
Hey i have been DJing for a couple of months now, learned everything from scratch from this man, he is mint and the best dj tutor by far on the internet, please look on my channel and tell me what you think of my mini mix's, all feedback welcome as it will help me improve cheers
@wrestlemaniac202 it a good idea to mix intro into outro... you will find after about 1min(with 128bpm) everysong "changes" which means his intro finishes... you will also find that everysong changes about 1min befor it finishes... thats the outro! this only counts for electronic/dance music ;)
but theire are way better explanations out there then mine ;)
@djjamingman well metal and rock is a different beast, you cant really do a whole lot but crossfade between songs at the outro/intro and try to blend them as much as you can so you dont have to hear silence
and i think thats why most dj's get into electronic music, cause there's more to work with
@ellaskins Shitfuck341 asked: (is there a video on how to flow a set, as in say bring it up and down. For example for me to go from 80bpm to 130bpm it will take me liek 1.5 hours. But your suppose to go up and down a couple of times. So i would like tips on how to speed up the process without changes the pitches way too much.) do you have any tips or video available regarding that? thanks!

Make it half BPM of the other track then. U can take the 80bpm track to 65, and keep the other one at 130bpm. Or play a little with it, as 80bpm is quite slow..
@Shitfuck341 throw some delay over a short sound (vocal or a stab in the track, or even a backspin or scratch) and let it fade out, creating a short break before mixing in the slower/faster tune. it may be a bit drastic, but it can turn out pretty good if your timing is right
@Shitfuck341 if you're playing a track in 80 bpm and want to go to a track that has 100 bpm, you could change track at the drop if you know what i mean :) but it's hard to go from 80 to 130 bpm directly, wouldn't be so easy to dance to that mix ;)
I have a question about connecting the CDJ 400 / DJM to a pc or laptop with DJ software.
I have 2 CDJ 400 and a DJM 400 and im thinking of getting traktor pro on a laptop or something. How does it work exaxctly? Will i lose sound quality by running my stuff through traktor and then through my mixer ?
Virtual DK packages like Traktor and Serato come with a USB audio interface that communicates with all of the equipment. Very easy to setup and start using.
them players are like 400 each i think. can get any price range pretty much. mixer will be a couple 100 too. it takes quite a bit of commitment for a hobby lol
guys im somewhat frustrated - i threw a halloween house party... to get people dancing I played popular hip/hop new stuff with a lot of electronic elements - i transitioned with a rhianna remix to get to my electro house stuff - but people werent dancing as much :C
listen, the person that wrote that was trying to say
a) they don't want to read about your woes, and,
b) you answered your own question.
what i mean by this is - if you're playing at an electro/commercial house club, or even a party where the majority of people are part of the electro house subculture, you'll get a response in the form of the crowd responding well (ie dancing). But you misjudged your crowd as they clearly liked top 40 and you decided to play your own brand of electronica.
alrighty mate, here's what you do. You drop one or two electro/house tracks and then drop one top 40 smash. Then you go back to the elctro house. Nothing fancy, mind you, just good steady house. And then drop another top 40. Everyone wins
nice tutorial, but doing this on electro house is harder cuz there is more melody and you have to pay attention not to play 2 melodie at the same time!
But if you mix in Trance in the middle you lose the journey, because Trance lifts and then chills and if you mix another tune in the middle of lifting part (breakdown for example) you´ll lose the atmosphere of the first track. But there are some departures of the rules.
Lots of songs start with a beat. Lots of club mixes do. The total tracklength is about 6 of 7 min.
The way explained in the video with remembering times doesn't work for me.
Start track 2 at the beginning, when track 1 begins with te climax. most music has 64 bars (4 beats) for every part. So theoreticly when the climax of track 1 stops, the climax of track 2 should begin.
You know what? I get angry when i read something like this, "coolman471".
this video is about explaining things and not about "how he looks". in my opinion sharing his knowledge and give people ideas how things work makes him way cooler then you will ever get, "coolman471".

good job man and good teaching ......but i want to know whats the difference between this dj setup and the dj setup with the disk..plzplzplz i want an answer
man, first of all, gratz for ur skill and ur videos,u are a greath teacher and a very good dj.
There is a thing i need to know,i don't undestand..:(
When u start a mix,and u have xfade in the center with both tracks on, u must reduce the low tone level of one of 2 tracks or can u continue to mix both tracks with the same low tone level? Coz i'm scary for a low tone level overload on the speakers! O_O
Sorry for this kid questions,but i'm really a beginner :( And soz for my bad english. :|
make sure that you watch the clip-leds(usually red) on your amp. If they don't light up, youre safe. keep in mind that when youre mixing, the main volume will go up, simply because youre playing 2 tracks.
Mixing the end and beginning of tracks is so boring to me. I'm all about making each set different from the previous. Just don't see the point of simply playing tracks one after another.
I guess lots of people do that, but I'm really into knowing ur tracks and creating completely new songs out of existing songs, as well as making ur own new tracks/loops/samples completely.
to dj Turt that is asking for allsort but what ever, this vid is about knowing your tunes, each track may have multiple drop in points and the new tune will determine the best one to pick.
Hi m8 .just like to say love the informative vids, very helpful. ive seen a few of your vids now and you never seem to be in the same place , how many houses do you have, lol
i think that this only apllies to dance music djs (hard house hard style etc) it seems that all these dj do is make a sort or compilation mix rather than a propa mixing about mix. i mix dnb and i double drop my choons and dnt just string them along when 1 choon is finishing. this dulls the mix so double droping brings loads of energy to the mix. i have neva herd a hardcore,hard dance ect dj double drop!!??
You get "dj kit in a box" but now we have "dj in a box" a small box surrouded by links and other boxes.
Now what you were trying there was to teach the so be "dj" the inner workings of a dj at work,you surley must know you cant teach that!
You dont learn how to construct a set,you construt a set by way of knowledge,not by way of "right bring that one in at the middle stage,then after that bring the other in at the end"
Knowledge and years help you get to the next level.
This is a good point though, people who don't listen to EDM ask me how I can listen to ASOT for 2 hours all at once- or they'll ask me why they need a DJ if they have a playlist on their ipod. And this is basically what I tell them xD
u have a nice bundle there m8 i like the 2 pioneer CDJ-400 and the Pioneer DJM-400 they work great together but ive seen them on a web site i wanted 2 buy em seporated bc the bundel cost 2 much but they coundt match together the DJM wasnt digital and i have no idea how the bundel with 2 pioneer CDJ-400 and the pioneer DJM-400 they could work together if u wanted to buy them seporated they coundt match together little weird dont u think so plz reply this comment i need help m8's
I too have the CDJ 400's. When you grab the sides of the jogwheel what exactly does that do? i do most of my beat matching through the tempo and by turning vinyl mode off, i havent used that technique
Hell yeah, A good minute to two of two songs on each other is always good. I usually start my 2nd track when the first beat hits of the main melody and force after the build up. The melodies and breaks tend to line up nicely as well.
I have used many makes of cd decks now and the one i found my self sticking with are the cdj 1000's. Some may say that they are over rated, but they are indusrty standard for a reason.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This is nothing new! Dj's like Sasha, Digweed, Carl Cox, Dave Seaman and Nick Warren have been doing this for years. It's the reason why people say Sasha's sets are so memorable, when he mixes tracks together its like he's made a new track!!!!
just some other advice, just got numark icdx and a efx 5000 mixer, great package! n very cheap these days, fast loading. good effects,mp3/dvd/ipod/serato/cue works with them! scratch wheel is ok but not the best, once i get on the case ill load a video
Build em up. Drop the track and blow em up. Slow things down a bit to let em rest. Bring em back up again. You cant play club bangers all the time or they lose their value. Take people on a trip with your music.
i was wondering if u would advise me to get the C.314 cdj from stanton or the T80 vinyl turntable from stanton because i would prefer to scratch vinyl but its IMPOSSIBLE to find vinyl shops here......
there are other programs, BUT!! once you buy serato you have it for good and expensive vinyl is the thing of the past. But this is only if you cant afford vinyl or cant get hole of it easy!! j
to shadowquestion, hey mate im in the same situation as you, i have a low budget and i dont know what to buy. i've been investigating about the stanton c314, and they seem nice to me, especially for a beginner, because they offer you a lot of functions and best of all at an affordable price
Hi Jon gt a quick question i just bought a pair of cd players and it worked fine the first day but the next day it wont turn on ive cheked the fuse andall connections. Do have any thoughts to get them workin agen?

Mixing the end and beginning of tracks is so boring to me. I'm all about making each set different from the previous. Just don't see the point of simply playing tracks one after another.
I guess lots of people do that, but I'm really into knowing ur tracks and creating completely new songs out of existing songs, as well as making ur own new tracks/loops/samples completely.

me too! if you do it from end-beginning, your just a regular (boring) dj

to dj Turt that is asking for allsort but what ever, this vid is about knowing your tunes, each track may have multiple drop in points and the new tune will determine the best one to pick.

i think that this only apllies to dance music djs (hard house hard style etc) it seems that all these dj do is make a sort or compilation mix rather than a propa mixing about mix. i mix dnb and i double drop my choons and dnt just string them along when 1 choon is finishing. this dulls the mix so double droping brings loads of energy to the mix. i have neva herd a hardcore,hard dance ect dj double drop!!??

You get "dj kit in a box" but now we have "dj in a box" a small box surrouded by links and other boxes.
Now what you were trying there was to teach the so be "dj" the inner workings of a dj at work,you surley must know you cant teach that!
You dont learn how to construct a set,you construt a set by way of knowledge,not by way of "right bring that one in at the middle stage,then after that bring the other in at the end"
Knowledge and years help you get to the next level.
Love your work

This is a good point though, people who don't listen to EDM ask me how I can listen to ASOT for 2 hours all at once- or they'll ask me why they need a DJ if they have a playlist on their ipod. And this is basically what I tell them xD

I too have the CDJ 400's. When you grab the sides of the jogwheel what exactly does that do? i do most of my beat matching through the tempo and by turning vinyl mode off, i havent used that technique
godfatherduce 3 years ago
Hell yeah, A good minute to two of two songs on each other is always good. I usually start my 2nd track when the first beat hits of the main melody and force after the build up. The melodies and breaks tend to line up nicely as well.

I have used many makes of cd decks now and the one i found my self sticking with are the cdj 1000's. Some may say that they are over rated, but they are indusrty standard for a reason.

would be better if you had chosen two songs that were more different to each other.. Those club-house tracks are to easy to mix into each other..

This is nothing new! Dj's like Sasha, Digweed, Carl Cox, Dave Seaman and Nick Warren have been doing this for years. It's the reason why people say Sasha's sets are so memorable, when he mixes tracks together its like he's made a new track!!!!

Build em up. Drop the track and blow em up. Slow things down a bit to let em rest. Bring em back up again. You cant play club bangers all the time or they lose their value. Take people on a trip with your music.

thx mate

have you thought of serato scratch live?, you get to use vinyl but you use the music off your pc. j
ellaskins 4 years ago
serato scratch is GOOD, but really expensive.
Is there another equipment like that, but cheaper?
mintcandy 4 years ago
there are other programs, BUT!! once you buy serato you have it for good and expensive vinyl is the thing of the past. But this is only if you cant afford vinyl or cant get hole of it easy!! j

to shadowquestion, hey mate im in the same situation as you, i have a low budget and i dont know what to buy. i've been investigating about the stanton c314, and they seem nice to me, especially for a beginner, because they offer you a lot of functions and best of all at an affordable price
