@greecegun501 12 лет назад

you're a really good teacher btw. i only know the basics about scratching. i bet i could learn more from your videos. thanks...

@fiqrisamat3 11 лет назад

I never been so eager to learn turntable and dj in my whole life thanks to shiftee

@Tumkan 14 лет назад

shifteee, actually i have to say that these tips you give might sound basic, but for people like me who dont live in a country where turntablism is widespread, and have to learn all by myself, its a great help :-) condradz on the dmc 2009 by the way... PEACE!

If your just starting to DJ and have a laptop I would say your best option is to use the Traktor Kontrol S4. It has 2 decks built into it that can control 4 decks in Traktor. It also has a 4 channel mixer (with EQ's and filters) and soundcard built into it, and has buttons for browsing, looping, FX etc. It will save you from having to buy 2 Turntables, a mixer, amp, and dj software & hardware since its all of these in one, and would allow you to be able to take your dj setup anywhere.

@az09peixe Looks like a Crowd Control battle record. That's my friend DJ Nick Nack's label in Austin,Texas. Cool!

@barrywatts8501 3 года назад

With all these tutorials on line im really getting a lot better at standing in front of my turntables. Some times i just sit down but that just does not work as my arms are not long enough!

@5100yes 5 лет назад

I'm wondering if youre left or right handed ? or where does your dominant position on the platter or fader ?

@TheCurls1 10 лет назад

cheers shiftee-funny and educational :)

@kwidg87 14 лет назад

for anyone than can help. im looking to start dj-ing and these videos are helpful but with equipment I mainly see the 1200's and the ttm 56 or 57 mixer used by the better dj's. would it be reccomended that i just save up and buy the best gear first or are there cheaper alternatives to start with that offer the same or at least comparable performance to the technics and ttm?

@dresirmusic 12 лет назад

man you really helped me out alot thanks...... and he gots jokes

@greecegun501 12 лет назад

isn't there a way to set the cross fading curve on the mixer so that the cross fader does't have to travel such a long distance? then if the cross fader smells only your fingers, it'll let you hear what's on the other deck...

@chuckles1252 13 лет назад

if ur right handed, do u put ur right or left hand on the crossfader?

@greecegun501 12 лет назад

how often would you have to change needles on you SL12s? if i were you, i'd go with the high tech stuff man. lol...buy thats just me.

@MEKON17 14 лет назад

@kwidg87 i just keep to bedroom DJing, and i have the most fun in the world with 2 vinyl turntables and a mixer that cost 100 quid in total! and yes, i scratch. Its not the gear - its what you do with it!! Buy a skipless scratch record ("superseal" is really good) so you dont have to worry about good needles. Make your own slipmat out of some slippy plastic so you dont have to worry about crappy torque. Then just have fun - if you one day upgrade then you will be 10x better with expensive gear!

@1996yayo 11 лет назад

I like how he randomly has tostitos and salsa just sitting there

@SiHargreaves 14 лет назад

@MrKook78 yo dude, go buy super seal on dirstyle records.... skipless and got most the usual scratch sounds you hear so you can practise.

@NewHotHipHopMusic 14 лет назад

pretty cool...

@aking610 12 лет назад

Hi I have a Pioneer DJM 600, my crossfaider takes about 4mm of movement before I get my "switch". Is this a normal amout of movement and is this ok for Scrathing? Thanks

@mr.gizmoealonzo4474 11 лет назад

Traktor settings set your crossfader all the way to Sharp.

@lkrux 13 лет назад

@DubSpot i tried lots of midi stuff and all that..i find myself going back to turntables. idk it just doesnt feel the same..i miss it:(

@OfficialConnect2012 11 лет назад

Is there any place where I can get the loops and samples he is using?

@OfficialConnect2012 11 лет назад

I use a s4 and pressing lightly and hard makes no difference so is there a way to change that?

@MaDMadZ101 11 лет назад

Where can I find that sample "Funky"? What sample vinyl is it from?

@MegaMacDj 11 лет назад

Hey guys ! im using a mixtrack pro and a kontrol f1 in traktor pro 2.6. how can i change the settings so i can use the crossfader like that ? i know how in virtual dj but not in traktor. Please help : )
