Allen & Heath Xone:DB4

Posted on 11:58 by Unknown
If you got a $hitload of money, aspirations of beeing a VERY technical DJ, got LOADS of audio sources to distribute, don't think Traktor delivers enough effects and looking for a mixer... This is probably one of the ones you should concider... Though you probably should check out Pioneer DJM-900 Nexus or Denon DN-X1700 aswell.

Serato kicks some ass

Posted on 00:56 by Unknown
If I had time and resources (and skills) to do this preperation... This is how I would do my shows. I'm simply BLOWN away. This is the first time ever that I think that Serato realy kicks some Traktor ass. Sadly this video shows something that is not available in Traktor yet. I recon it will be available in the future simply because... well... It just has to.Read more about this fantastic setup

Ean Golden shows some cool mixing techniques

Posted on 00:20 by Unknown
Ean shows us some cool ways to fix the transitions, but there are no right way to do this and there are alot of other techniques. I often use the Beatmasher2 effect for transitions and It seem to work pretty well.However good you might think you are. You should atleast try listening to your own sets atleast one time per month... Use the record feature in Traktor to simply store the whole

Do not use soundcloud!

Posted on 04:50 by Unknown
Soundcloud has started a very hard line when it comes to copyrighted material. I got mix deleted due to violation my self, so if you're using Soundcloud as a source for promotion, you might want to look elsewhere.
The alternative is: Mixcoud.com

Number 2

Setting volume in Traktor

Posted on 01:26 by Unknown


The offset of the volume knob is to
ensure no peaking.
Having problems or just wondering on how you should adjust your volume settings in Traktor? Digital DJ Tips has done an article on just that!
I have one little comment about the offset of the volume button. I believe that -10db on the master output is a bit hard. I normaly set it to around -3 to -5 db and I have never heard the limiter kick

The dancing DJ??

Posted on 04:21 by Unknown
A couple of articles about DJ behavior and more specific about dancing have been written lately. While 100% agree with the fact that being an entertainer first and foremost is important. Sometimes dancing might make you look like a douche or clown! If you don’t want to look like a clown (I do that sometimes on purpose to amp the crowd). The most important thing is to show that you love the music

SERATO ITCH 2.0

Posted on 00:43 by Unknown



What a nightmare!
 Though this doesn't apear to be a Traktor related post. One should be aware about the fact that Serato ITCH will upgrade to 2.0 at the beginning of April. A feeble atempt to snatch some focus from the upcoming Traktor Pro 2 release. Some key features in Serato has been ported to Traktor and visa versa, so there might be some fancy features that has been thought up (I'm

The digital DJ paradigm shift is here!

Posted on 23:32 by Unknown

Rane Launched their Sixty-eight mixer last year and I wasn't very interested in the product before I saw Ean Golden looking at it and using it with Traktor.

I've tested the TTM-56 a while back and even though I didn't quite like the layout and the design, it was still one of the best mixers, as far as quality goes, that I've ever tried.
Faders and buttons where amazingly tight and I was a bit

Explaining the club DJ

Posted on 23:26 by Unknown
I found this video posted on DigitalDJTips and had to share it with you.
This is Michael May (DJ Mikey Four) talking about what it is to be a DJ and he is dead on. This is what I feel aswell, but this is just presented perfectly.

 

 What you should be as a DJ:
Be an Entertainer (fist and foremost)
Be a reflector (of the mood of the crowd)
Be an educator (but never at the expense of the other
