@ChantingInTheDark 10 месяцев назад

8:40 - Top-tip for beginners: Rather than try and start the track to be mixed in on the drop, count 1 bar in and hold on that beat, then when the drop happens count one bar and THEN let the new track go. It gives you some buffer in case you miss the drop.

@PS-bo2xc Год назад

Need a bit of help please! Just got my DDJ-FLX 4. First time I used it. Instead of using my studio monitor speakers, I just plugged it with my lat top and used a JBP speaker which is connected through bluetooth with my lap top. So, when I'm listening a track I'm listening it faster in my headphones than in the speaker. It's like in the headphones I'm half a secongd ahead than what is heard through the speakers. Obvisouly this makes beat matching impossible. It something wrong with my settings? Any help more than welcomed. Thanks!

@lloydbigger2013 11 месяцев назад

Hi! It’s a setting somewhere in Rekordbox (can’t remember where) that splits the waveform by frequency range, so lows are blue, mids are yellow, and highs are white (I think). It’s quite useful! Poke around in the settings, I’m sure you’ll find it :)

As far as i’ve been using it as my first dj controller, it works great. I gotta admit that i’ve been trying to learn new stuff every day for the past month and a half and that has gotten me to a point of wanting to buy a more professional dj all in one because all of the features they have on the gear itself, but since i don’t plan to make this a living i will probably be using the FLX4 for the rest of the year and i think it will still make the work
