I guess Im kinda off topic but do anyone know a good place to watch new movies online ?
@Marshall Vincenzo flixportal :P
@Jacoby Sean thanks, I signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there =) I really appreciate it !!
@Marshall Vincenzo no problem =)
Can you tell me which DJ deck you can use Bluetooth on CZcams
This Controller is awesome - used it for a bunch of raves on the go with algoriddim DJ on the phone via Bluetooth and a SOUNDBOKS speaker, the mobility is unmatched
I love how compact and light it is, I'm really happy for my Birthday purchase, I have dreamt of a DJ Controller for 7 years, and I've already been working with music for that long and knew all of the DJ'ing ins & outs, just needed to learn to do that on a controller, for the very first time. And this is a really good and easy setup guide :) I'm really excited for the future ahead of me.
good luck
@@KenzieShittu Thank you man! ✨️🖤
I'm thinking of buying the DDJ-200 for small parties and events to use it with my notebook, but I don't have an external soundcard. Do you think I can still play it fine in mono when using a headphone? Thanks
Thanks so much bro, I have been looking for a video like this on CZcams, am getting my ddj200 soon
Davvero complimenti, un video estremamente chiaro e rapido!!
straight to the point and so helpful thank u I love u
@6:40 thanks for this advice I was hearing the same thing in both headphones and stereo
Really helped mate enjoy Dj-ing
Very helpful thank you
Great info thanks bro
thank you super helpful!
My dad is getting me that DJ controller for Christmas
Same😂
It’s pretty cool for a first dj but not gonna lie I suck at it I started using a app on the iPad but i highly recommend a laptop that’s used for djing only
Nice ik ga hem kopen
Haha same lad
Same bro
Fantastic mate saved me a headache thanks
Nice explanation
I have one these I use the app we dj on the play store it's really bad ass I've been using it for some months now I'm ridiculously good.....
I'm going back to DJing after 20 years away..I was on vinyl and mainly CDs ..So I'm really up for the change to digital... only thing is I'm Dyslexic so everything has to be totally organized for me to grasp this but I know I have to change for the better 🎤🎧
thanks a lot!
My DDJ 200 is coming this Saturday
ddj 200 with edjing tutorial would be great too
Thank you for all your great videos. Just one thing for anyone using "split mode" is that everything goes to MONO (monitor & master) - no option for STEREO.
Unfortunately because it uses the left channel to go to the headphones and the right to go master, there's no possibility for stereo output!
Does only one earphone work on the headphones or does it play a mono signal through both earphones?
I was fully aware of a mono output due to its splitter cable
@@Crossfader OKAY!!! thank you for that at least now I know.
@@rockmunkey1981 Just guessing but any decent splitter would give you mono in both sides I'd be surprised if it wasn't. Then again I'm surprised how many videos reviewing this thing just don't actually mention that your output is mono at all. I was wondering what kind of magical splitter cable is pioneer using and how expensive is it going to be to replace.
@@Crossfader so is this just when using a mobile only for speakers and headphones? Can you get stereo when using a pc or laptop ? Otherwise it's useless 🤣
thank you DJ Holland
Any time!
Hello. Thanks for the tutorial, really helpful. Also considering to sign up to the course. One question though: is there a way to control the volume of the headphone? I hear the music in it using the cue very quiet, almost nothing. Thanks for the tips in advance!
Is there any way to use it without the splitter cable and just have two seperate outputs on my audio interface?
Thank you for this video. Can you also teach us how to cue the headphone music? Like how to use the cue and master buttons on the controller for the headphones. 💆🏻♀️
Hi all, I am considering buying one of these for basic DJ practice + organising my rekordbox. I normally play in clubs on CJ's 2000's or 900's , considering how cheap these are I thought might be a good shout to use with rekordbox to set up basic cues + playing around with transitions, has anyone out there tried this? do the rekordbox settings on the DDJ200 transfer nicely to the 2000's/900's? thank you
Brilliant ccontroller
Thanks 🙏
Hello, how do I do to connect a soundcard on my laptop and still have the split audio option on ? Do I connect the speakers connector to the soundcard ? thanks for the video btw.
Thanks bro👍👌
Got the DDJ-200 for Xmas’20 as a first time bedroom DJ/ beginner and I seriously wish I had the done following:
1. Watched this video on how to setup the device with the proper splitter etc
2. Setup a Beatport Link/BPM Supreme account ahead of time - none of my Apple Music was eligible for playback when I started playing around
I basically lost interest in the device until I went for Ministry Of Sound: Classical at the O2 Arena almost 10 months later where i caught the DJ itch again lol. I dug up the DDJ 200, did proper research (thank you Crossfader!) and signed up to Beatport Link and BPM Supreme and finally found out why this device is so neat!
Xmas’21 and I got a DDJ-1000 bundle with monitors, headphones and cables and I’m loving dj’ing for friends and family. My DDJ-200 is now my travel deck and I defo recommend it (subject to the above lessons!)
if you have a set of bluetooth jbl speakers 400 connected on the laptop should you not need the splitter cable as you already have speakers connected and then just connect headphones to pc
Would this work for any other dj sets??
Thank you!
Welcome!
so are the headphone outputs and the monitor outputs mono???
Thanks for the video. What about Serato with a MacBook?
I have been looking into getting the ddj200. My goal is to be able to scratch my own samples and then record that scratching audio as a separate track into my DAW. I have an Android phone and an iPad mini. Can I connect my ddj200 to my phone or iPad, then load my samples library onto that device, que the samples with the ddj200 and scratch while sending the audio out of the headphone jack and into an audio mixer to be recorded in my DAW?
Sorry I know this is a long question...
Right now I’m just goofing around in my bedroom with a JBL flip 4 speaker. I’m using an old aux cord from a pair of beats to go into the speaker/splitter. I get a nasty hissing interference while music is playing, would a better gold tipped aux cord eliminate that? And will any old audio splitter work properly or do I have to use the included one?
am i able to connect to the controller and send sound wirelessly to my sound bar via bluetooth as well thanks
Is there a way to negate the latency from what’s in the headphones to what come out the speakers? I connect via Bluetooth and the aux to to my speakers. My tunes are beat matched in the headphones but not when you bring them into the main output. Which is annoying
Can we use a bluetooth speaker as an output device ?
Hello... Can we get power by using mobile adapter (usb) directly from electric socket? No laptop, no pc, no power bank....
Can you use music streaming services to play music? If so which? Thanks
Hello thanks for the Video :) I have a question, maybe someone can help me. If I buy the controler and use it on the laptop, do I have to buy a software as well or do I just have to buy it for the phone? Thank you :)
Thanks for the video, it gave me the push to go and buy one and get back into mixing after a long time away from it! It does the job brilliantly, especially as I haven’t got a huge library of downloads yet (using Djay and Beatport Link)
One question... I have a bit of a lag between my headphones and my speakers (tv soundbar) connected via the 2 plug AUX channel. Bit annoying when I have my headphone on one ear and listening to the speakers with the other.
Does anyone know any solutions to get them in sync. Have tried two pairs of headphones, but no joy! Cheers
It's your speaker. Lag is common among many consumer speakers nowadays, even when using an AUX input. The only solution is to take your DDJ 200 etc to a store and test speakers out. Not a big hassle tho since you can easily fit everything into a backpack and hit up the shops
you can also set your headphone output to master to hear both tracks playing in your headphones while only one track plays oon your speakers
Hello, I purchased the DDJ-200 and really happy with my first 2 channel mixer.
I was using JBL Flip Essential initially, but purchased the JBL Extreme 2 version to have more Watts for outdoor usage.
When I play spotify by Bluetooth connection the volume and quality is great. But in the setup with the splitter cable and iPad + DDJ, the max volume is only half. All levels on iPad, Speaker and Djay app are on maximum. Do I need an extra device like preamp to feed the speaker?
Hope to get some support.
Regards,
Kevin
Did you get solution on this?
I have the same problem.
What speakers do you use ?
Can you use the DDJ + iPhone with Bluetooth speakers?
Can we use CZcams Music Subscription
as the source of music to play ?
Can you connect to Bluetooth speakers as well with the headphone jack being used for cueing purposes?
I just got the ddj 200 with the dm 40bt speakers and hdj x5 headphones. im also using galaxy s22 ultra with the wedj app.plugged everything in with the split cables to speakers and headphones and the sound quality is really low. do I need to add an external sound card as well?
Cool!
Is there any effects with this controller ? Looks like there is none. I only want use it with my laptop and Rekordbox. I don’t want get too complicated with Wedj software on iPhone, and so on.. Thank you ! 🙏
Hello, can someone help me to understand what is the use of splitter cable!! Is it split the audio to headphone and speaker simultaneously or we can hear the next que of 2nd deck separately via Headphone while playing current song in 1st deck via speaker.
Would I be correct in saying I can Bluetooth connect to my laptop, and aux cable connect to a hifi system for speakers?
do i have to connect to speakers or can i use my laptop speakers?? is there any way around that
How can it give out 2 different sound outputs in stereo from one headphone jack?
I’m using Djay on a iPhone through pioneer speaks and Iv done the output split and I’m still having my trouble with the audio bleeding through the speaker when it should be coming through the headphones…
Any suggestions
What if I have a bluetooth speaker? does it matter that there isn't a cable to connect it to the splitter? or will i have to buy a new speaker...
thx :)
Where can I buy the audio splitter cable as mine is broken?
Hi there, when using the white and black splitter.. What if the splitter is all black.. But still headphone and mic input.. Which jack goes into which port? And what do you press to hear the track you're mixing in the headphones and not the speakers? 😊 😊
I wish to know the answer to your question mate
I want it
I'm very DUMB when it comes to using new electronics! I gotvthis controller today and was looking for some one to help me set it up!
Want to use this with an Android tablet. Sooo, I have a Focusrite Solo. I could connect tablet to DDJ by Bluetooth.. And and tablet to Solo by OTG. Would that work? 😎
I have bought a second hand ddj 200 but it didnt come with splitter cable! I cannot get headphone to play different song to main speaker, ive tried on pc and tablet and split option does not work is it because ive bought after market wire? Thanks
How do you connect your DDJ-200 to you mac to use with Djay Pro? Or am I stuck with only DDJ-200+Djay Pro on mobile?
If theres Djay Pro for mac you may use Bluetooth or an adapter
I have a windows laptop and I also have djaypro installed on my laptop,how can I connect my headphones to cue music?? If I undestand correctly you have to connect the splitter to the headphone jack on your laptop?and what about the speakers I know in most controllers you just connect and rca cable to the back of the speaker,can I do the same with this controller???
Is the splitter just a general headphone splitter? I don’t have the original
Help! Split Audio for mixing, the output for me would be Airplay, as my speakers are outside in my patio and thats connected to my receiver inside the house. How can I make that happen, thanks!
Anyone have any solutions if the split audio is not working to the speakers? I click the split audio button and the music does not come out of the desired speaker I have plugged in, getting very frustrated and debating just selling the controller all together, if anyone could give me an suggestions or help that would be amazing!
Can I use the computer/phone as a speaker?
Sorry if this is a daft question, but is the DJ app a paid app? Think I’ve used it before and I had to pay monthly to use it. Cheers.
can anyone help me i’ve just bought this and everything works, but i think i done something to my setting as everything work then all of sudden i can only use 2 of my Low/High switches and my volume doesn’t change when i hit the ones that do
Love all the cdj3000 and prime 4 vids etc, but so good to see you haven’t forgotten that loads of people just want to start with a cheap controller and need videos on it. Great to see 👍🏻
We're always aiming to cover every corner of the industry to the best of our ability 😃
Can you Use also Spotify, CZcams or some kind of streaming app with music to DJ
What happens if my android doest have the jack port only charging type C, Would I not be able to use it?
I’m using a Bluetooth speaker and when I plug my earphones in all the sound goes through the earphones. Split audio is on too.
Thanks for the video 👍🏻
I'd love an answer to this too
@@youwant2suck I’m useless. I’ve found a god mission speaker for sale at a decent price but don’t even know if that will be compatible or I’ll be needing an amp as well 🤷🏻♂️
As for me I'm using a Bluetooth speaker which works perfectly well. Problem is both decks are playing at the same time when I move the crossfader to the left or to the right. Not sure how to fix this so that when the song on the left deck is playing the right isn't and vice versa.
@@_ItsYoursTruly fix your transition fx
How did you make it work with Bluetooth speakers and headset in laptop
Hi what about the Traktor audio interface?
Will this unit work with Traktor on a Windows PC?
Can I use aux-rca to connect dj controller to mixer
Can I use this controller with Serato dj pro and a laptop that has Bluetooth, or can I just plug it in via USB into the laptop and still be able to control S DJ Pro?
And then just use the audio cable / jack to go out to a "master"
Go for reddit posts about "DDJ 200 Serato" There are lots of answers there. It might also include some remapping if needed.
@@euvo_sound
Alright, cool thank you! I've had this controller for a while and used it only a couple of times with the compatible softwares.
Useing a ddj 200 on rekordbox , can’t hear any cue audio on my headphones no matter what I do, in my audio settings / output channels it just says (output Chanel 1/2) any idea on what I can do ?
how do I connect the ddj to icoa 12a speakers??
Do you need a sound card with this controller?
Still cant wirelessly hookup jbl Bluetooth speakers natively on these things can I?
does it work on desktop?
Hi is it possible to use the DDJ 200 with Traktor? It's not on the manufacturers list, so wondering if there is a work around?
You'd have to create your own midi mapping I'd imagine sadly.
I have a question please,
I use deezer for my music on my phone, will this machine be compatible with deezer??
Any chance could you help me out mapping to ddj 200 to traktor software
7:25 the split output is not an option on my iPad. It goes from master volume to albeton link without split output. What am I missing?
I have the split icon on but I've been trying for 3 days to get the sound to play through my headphones and it doesn't, it just plays through teh speakers making it impossible to use the unit. What am I doing wrong?
I’ve been using the Djay app on my laptop with my AirPods in Bluetooth for cueing. I just ordered a DDJ-200... will I be able to hook it up to my laptop via Bluetooth while also using my AirPods?
You'll never see anyone using bluetooth headphones or speakers ever in DJing. This is because the lag is too lag and not fixed so you'll never be in time sadly. Basically when you press a button there is a delay to you hearing it and that delay can even change! You'll need to invest in some wired headphones for when your DJ'ing :) Hope this helps!
@@Crossfader Helpful. Thanks!
How do I set it so my audio to connect to my inbuilt laptop speakers and play audio out my headphones
How on earth would a 3.5mm headphone splitter give you two different audio streams? Is this some sort of weird proprietary jack and plug because that's gonna be annoying to replace if you lose or break it. And by annoying I mean expensive.
Or does it split the audio into two mono streams like Right is the headphones and left is the speaker? I've watched like 5-6 videos on this and they all mention the splitter but none mention HOW it's working. For my use I'd like stereosound but I'm not sure you can do that with this deck.
Alright confirmed in lower comments that it will be mono audio when using splitter. So at least it works in a way I understand and that unfortunately dealbreaks for me. That's way to big with way too much space to be . well audiocardless.
How about pioneer ddj sb2?
Can you connect this with bluetooth speakers or does it have to be all wired? Same as well for headphones? Also, is it possible to connect both wireless headphones and wireless speakers via bluetooth?
Have the same question :(
No Bluetooth speakers will work well with dj equipment as the latency is too big. There are exceptions with higher end low latency wireless systems but a standard Bluetooth speaker like a Sonos won’t work. As for headphones they will need to be wired too.
I have a pc and bought a ddj200 to try djing for the first time. Was having fun just using my laptop speakers and messing around but the time came to get the headphones going. The splitter cable does not work. I use an external speaker too so the laptop speakers were not in use. I can only hear both tracks playing in headphones no matter what I do with settings etc. The speakers do the same thing. Please help if you can! I feel like smashing the ddj to pieces. I use rekorbox. And yes, I pressed the button mentioned in this video. Right now I am gutted I wasted money on it.
Turns out my expensive laptop headphone jack is cheap and nasty and that is the problem! Got the ddj400 now instead.
So, is it possible to connect the DDJ-200 to a Macintosh laptop?
Spend days trying to get sound on laptop reckordbox 6 still no luck so frustrating!
How can I connect 2 speakers? Using one splitter connection?
