Great video and good points! Thanks for posting.

great video again!

So many valid points I lost count! And so many that I can relate too. Starting DJing later on has worked in my favour because it meant I was able to go out regularly when I was younger. I used to love going to raves and nights out frequently. However, these days I’m now providing the music for everyone else on the dance floor 😆

I drag the cut track to the sampler panel. But it doesn’t load track into the panel. How should I do?

Nice video man, got the FLX4 2 days ago but DHL late delivering my speakers and headphones so using it slowly. Had 1210s back in the day and dug all my old records out from my parents at the weekend! Looking forward getting to grips with this new kit 😃

Hi, some advice for up-and-coming young DJs I would look at the back catalogue of music on the USB drives that CD Pool offers, or I would look at some of the Master Mix playlists that you can download off the website. You should be able to get everything you need for a wedding from the nineteen fifties to the 2020s.and CD pool have similar playlists for club and dance music to so you should be covered to no matter what type of event you do

i have months with this problem.. thanks <3

Nice.

Cool video brother.

Very good video. Will save this to my DJ tips playlist now.

Thanks for this video! You are the only one who explained it quite clearly. But I have an issue. I also have FLX-4, the free trial ended and now it's showing Free plan and the owner/product registration is greyed out, so I can't access it for some reasons even though I have connected the controller to my Mac. Seems very weird since FLX-4 is in the list of hardware unlock devices. Does the functionality of recordbox varies from Free to Free plus plan when you complete owner registration? I want to use AI detection of vocal position . Thank you in advance for your answer.

How can i connect my headphones I’ve tried with the output in the controller but it doesn’t work

I'm unable to import new track in my playlist.

Unfortunately not a fan op ZipDJ. Love the concept and i was happy with them for quite some time. However they started to charge me double / had multiple subscriptions active at the same time. After some one sided case communication they blocked me off their platform. Not sure what a great alternative would be, time for some digging and looking at reviews of competitors.

You should make a video about the current stats of music. Allso check of this video if u do👇 Rick Beato Know You're Angry, So Am I...

I think one of the main problem with people on there phone which no one is talking about is the djs especially house / underground DJs and melodic techno DJs most of the time there dj sets are boring playing a 4 to 5 minutes track if u go to a dubstep festival like lost lands yes there are people on there phone but it's not as worse as a melodic techno DJs. Example would be Excision vs Eric Prydz or any melodic techno/house DJs both have epic visuals but there going to be more people on there phone at Eric Prydz set than Excision why because the house dj is boring playing intro over the Outro at that point the visuals is more interesting and grabbing your attention than what the DJ is playing and those types of djs who don't quick mix will be replaced by AI hologram DJs and the crowd wouldn't care because thay are not there for the music thay are there because thay saw your visuals on tiktok and brought a ticket.

Awesome thank you 🙏

Free plan may not save edited tracks for future play but i think i'm able to save loops on performance pads and thats enough for me! (flx4) ☻

Who cares about a terrible video. Most of the big events do professionally produced videos you can go back and watch on CZcams anyway so just enjoy the moment :)

Just remember streaming is just another thing to go wrong, a DJ should have a good selection of tunes to cater to most people anyway on their drive. I dont like the the idea of owning nothing and been happy, always build your own library. Spotify,Apple Music,Amazon Music,Tune In etc are a cancer to the music industry for me its all about controlling what you consume. 90% of my music is now promos that are sent to me, I like to avoid record pools especially the likes of Mash-Up as I don't want to sound the same as every other DJ. Just me personally...

Good vid but wow! as soon as u said right click to drop the track to a playlist i thought naa naaa naaa now i know why i reverted back to version 6 cheers 😂

I think Bandcamp is still underrated in certain parts of the dj world, even for purchasing music from bigger names. You get to choose between lossless and any of the other lossy codecs and the artist gets the highest cut possible compared to other digital stores. Physical media is also sold on there for those that are into that.

So true what you’re saying about the streaming services. For me personally I will stick to zip dj just because I like having a collection like you were saying. I’m also pretty good at updating my music library on zip dj for the latest tracks too 👌🏼

Good advice to own your core library (back catalogue) and rent/stream the new stuff. The ability to access millions of tracks without needing to buy them has devalued music to the public, along with so much being uploaded (one every second on Spotify). It's hard to find the occassional needle among the millions of haystacks.

Best video on how to source music, very close to my own process.

#1 Never pay for subscriptions #2 own your music #3 never depend on internet for a live show

I operate XDJ 700 via USB at a community radio station. I prepare my list at home using the 6.8.5 version of Rekordbox; same as over there. Would I need to get on a subscription plan if I use Rekordbox 7?

you’re lovely thanks

So if you have hardware unlock you get full access to RB7?

CDJ NEXUS 2000 NSX2's and a DJM 900 NXS2 isn't on the list of hardware unlock?? wooooooow booooo

i agree with u about nightclubs

Where do your headphones plug in so you can actually mix without using sync?

No thanks pioneer, I had an XDJ-RX3 on order but I canceled it and I'll take the denon instead.

Hi ! Listener from Naarm/Melbourne Australia, the filming phenomenon has also reached a crisis point here, sad to see the energy and intimacy leave the dancefloor due to people filming but we do have a few event companies incorporating a ‘no phone policy’ taping up cameras , which makes such a huge difference, warms me to see everyone just immersed in the music and dance amongst themselves. I think the real issue is not so much the culture but the type of punter that will attend certain parties. The true lovers of the music don’t want to film because they understand etiquette. The issue arises with new punters that don’t understand true club etiquette. It is important to remind attendees with a list of rules/guidelines that outline the clubs expectations but to also have a good time and not worry about your phones. My colleagues and I implement strong a ‘no phone policy’ at every event. We will sometimes still have a designated videographer, lurking the dancefloor to capture candid moments of the dj and attendees. It provides a good archive of memories from the night that is of high quality, unlike mobile phones.

you got a video that shows how to proper transition from one track to the other ?

How do you get your wave form in the middle of the screen like that in Rekordbox

Hey mate please can you he;p as ive bougth a mixer then registered it but when i installed rekordbox it gave me a trial version is there a way i can change that and move it off trial thanks

Im running catalina on mg mac, can i even install rekordbox?

Best video of this board ive watched Thanks

The free version.. is 9 dollars a month.. so

Well they should start playing good music and once and for all stop playing the same overplayed tired sh1t songs such as happy, black eyed peas stuff, pitbull etc etc. That's the main reason why I stopped going. It's utter rubbish. Expose the crowd to good stuff, take the risk. Whenever I go to berlin or hungary the clubs i go don't play any pop radio songs, yet they're full, everyone dancing high energy. I personally need intense beats to get myself moving, generic pop stuff just makes my eyes roll and i walk out since I can my style at home and have a blast.

Yeah I had this problem back in the day when I was uploading remixes on Soundcloud. I guess mixcloud is the better option for me

so brotha, i’m tryna mix some dnb/techno n stuff around that area. what would be the best dj pool you’d recommend for that? i’ve literally got a whole list of tracks i wanna spin but i don’t really know where i’d be able to find em. ik i can get em all here on youtube, but i got no idea if i could even grab em off of here n put em into rekordbox. pretty new to the whole thing, got a ddj flx 4 and i’m kinda just bsing w/ these random soundcloud tracks that are included

If you're going to make a request, MAKE SURE IT FITS IN THE SET!!

Thank you so much.

Does the cfx knob on flx 4 work now with the phone app used as a screen? Wondering if they make software updates often

how can I change the sampler default folder path in my MacBook? the rekordbox folder is automatically set to my music folder and ive managed to move the recordings folder to another directory but the samples is still stuck there (I don't use samples at all) and each time I delete it it comes back when I start rekordbox. how can I fix this? thanks :)

Thanks for making your sample the airhorn. I spent the build up on the edge of my seat and was about to leave if it wasn't the horn. 🎉🎉🎉

Mate i use traktor 3 and i want to try rx3 . I can download recordbox and only anylise music,put it on usb and play it on rx3 ?

If I connect DDJ-FLX4 to the Recordbox 7, does the recording function require payment in performance mode?
