How to Mix Vestax Spin & djay Tutorial #2

I actually got a whole lot of request for this vid.
So I decided to shoot this real quick with my Nano camera.
This is a quick tutorial on how to mix a song on beat with the Vestax Spin and djay Software.
The following songs are for demonstration purposes
1."Down" by Jay Sean
2. " I got a Feeling" by Black Eyed Peas

hey im just getting into djing and for xmas im getting a midi controller and wht is the name of your midi controller

[djscratchdog]

@UnJusticeDjs Its called the (Spin) made by Vestax if you don't have a mac computer they make the (Typhoon) for PC.

They are awesome for beginners and advanced Dj's

This is not a little bit, but really out of key. You can't just throw 2 songs together at the same bpm and expect it to be good. Songs that are out of key can't be mixed when both have melodic parts going, then you get a clash like here. If you really have no choice, try to mix in drum sections. But even when in key it's not just the matter of counting bars and hitting play. Gain, EQ'ing, phrases, time signatures, breaks, intros, verses, chorus and all that also comes into play.

@Sanderr Your wrong pal, songs that are out of key work best when you mix them together at the right time and the right bpm.

If your a DJ and a musician you might disagree, but If your a party goer who is drinking and dancing then this is the climax of the party.

trust me I have been doing this for 25 years and no one has ever came to me and said " hey buddy those songs were off key"

Unless your competing in a contest then there is nothing to worry about.

Hey will this work in a windows 7 loptop?

[DJPPaul]

I see masta hanksta and immediately switch off. No genuine help or advice. You may be a great DJ but you are not a good teacher or demonstrator.

@juslikerichter lol, yeah he's so cynical

[greedisgoodz]

Does this work with my pc ?

[BChannel7]

Hi there I am just starting out Djing as well and have a very basic question. Is the "Midi Controller" the vestax device or something else? I'm sorry very beginner

[juslikerichter]

Sweet video, how do like the spin though? im thinking about getting one

[MatBookAir]

Nice tutorial, really thinking about getting these for myself for Christmas ;)

[IIDeMIZex]

that sounds so bad buddy, im getting dj stuff in a week to learn and even i know from tutorials and my friend teaching me. it needs to be in key so they blend and make a good mix. you can say you have done it for 25 years or what not but that doesnt mean shit if you have been producing this crap since then

[BESTBULLDOGUSA]

Thanks for the video! Can you use virtual DJ in conjunction with the Vestax spinning wheels? I have the Vestax spin but wanted to use features on virtual DJ; instead of the software they provide. Possible? Thanks again...
