Great tutorial!! 👍 I’ve been struggling to understand this mode, but this has helped tremendously 😁 Keep up the good work Jamie 👌
So amazed. You have so great editing skills as much as djing. That keeps me coming to your channel . I thank you
What a really useful tutorial...
I really appreciate this kind of videos that only you upload... Thank u a lot!
Quality tutorial as always.....fresh ideas to play around with keyboard melodies, TP and transitions bud. 👌🏻
An older vid but I really enjoy coming across these niche pieces of content and tutorials meant specifically for a specific controller/software.
It's always nice to see some of the gear you actually own when trying to learn, instead of trying to translate from unfamiliar tech.
^_^
Excellent, excellent, absolutely excellent as usual!!
Thanks for this! Great tutorial! I will be practicing this for a hot minute! :) Thanks for slipping in the major scale steps at the end there!
Nice vid bro you inspired me to start djing and now I dj events thank you
No fear using to uncensored version of a song! And what a vocal to pop in!
For real tho amazing video!
amazing tutorial. exactly what I was looking for thx
Glad it helped
Another great tutorial
Love the tutorials keep it up man 👍
This is exactly what i needed. Thanks
Awesome tutorial!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!!!
Jaw dropping video!! Sir you are the best. Thanks.
Hi Jamie, One cool trick could also be to use as the root note the cue point from where you want to start the playback.
Then when you want to finish the toneplay and start playback you just press the root note pad and while pressing it press play, track will continue to run
Thanks JH.
Finally, I understand.
Cheers
Thank's for tutorial. Good job Bro..
came here for more direction using the keyboard feature and loving every bit of this
This is a good tutorial. I mess with keyboard for fun on occasion. But if I were to use it more I would invest in an XP1 to eliminate the need for page scrolling.
Great video👏
Wow! Awesome! No upgrade needed right out the box! Yeah me likes Rekordbox boyeeeee!!!!!!!
Thank you Jamie!
Nice tutorial
Thanks for explaining that, although a total noob in DJing but i can imagine having access to keyboard function could be very helpful. Just wondering if finger drumming could be possible with Ddj400 the same way you did keyboard?
Thnx it's great stuff
Brilliant!
❤️❤️❤️❤️ love you form Iraq 🇮🇶
So professional espically the bodak yellow mix
Can you guys please do a performance or a Sunday skills on one of hercules’ Inpulse controllers?
Very cool 😎
Still really liking the new Numark entry level controller, so still undecided on that or the 400 as don't have Serato pro....
gonna try this on the 200 tonight maybe help me make a decision. clickity click click click.
Thanks for the video Crossfader/Jamie
Awesome Tutorial. What camera and software are you using for your streaming?
Is there a page change button or feature with the DDJ 400? I’ve just been using my mouse which can be annoying sometimes...
The 'single note' hot cue should be the root note, right? So if Track B (the track you want to transition to) is in Em, the single note of Track A should be an E, so that you can play the E Minor scale with keyboard mode. If the single note of Track A was a G and you would play the Minor scale, it would clash, right?
Same as Pitch 'n' Time on my Denon mc7000.
Is there any easy way to recognise major and minor keys using Camelot notation?
HeYs guy there is a mode on ddj 1000 rekorbox dmx for light?? Give demo
Class
Great......💪👍👌
Thank you for explaining how the buttons and function work for the "keyboard" mode. But, I am fresh and a beginner. How do I load "piano" notes into the ddj 400? and where do I go in order to load these notes from?
Bro u dont have to load the notes, the song will automatically break into notes. You just have to press the button.
You’d need to cue up a piano note in a song (a nice, clear example of one), if you wanted this keyboard to sound/play anything like a piano … or perhaps there’s a other way of selecting a sound/samole to use as the ‘keyboard sound reference’ (dom’t know yet; I’m a noob myself).
helo, i have a question about the drumpads. sometimes the song plays immediately if you touch them and sometimes the track stops if you don't touch the pad anymore. could you explain this?
Go to Preferences > Controller > Deck > Hot Cue > then tick box that says 'During Pause, GATE playback is applied'. Thank me later ;)
Which controller would u favour ?? The ddj 800/1000 or the Traktor S4 mk3. Thx
there is any way rekordbox will arrange the minor and major scale automatically according to the scale of the song ?
Can use it on xdj rx2?
When I press shift hot cue on ddj 400, and press the pad for a keyboard sound,it just shift's the key of the track and keeps playing, rather than an individual note. Tried toggling that gate playback feature under preferences. Any help would be appreciated?
Go to Preferences > Controller > Deck > Hot Cue > then tick box that says 'During Pause, GATE playback is applied'. Thank me later ;)
Question I bought the DdJ 400 and Ddj 1000. Does the rekordbox license that comes with 400 the same as the 1000?? Thanks for any replies.
Sure
I have ddj 400 I wanna make keybord mood but when I play one click on every note the music play to finish what should I do to just each click make one sound and stop after I stop hold it.guide tnx
Can someone please help 🙃
I have the DDJ-FLX4, I have ‘Keyboard’ written under the ‘Hot Cue’ button, yet when I hold shift and press that button, nothing happens. It flashes to let me know it’s selected the shift function for the button, yet it doesn’t work and nothing comes up in the boxes in Rekordbox on my screen (it still displays Hot Cues). Is this only a function for Serato users or something?
DDF 400 doesn't have the page button. What is the button that we can use instead?
Once I click Shift + Hot Cue, how do I go up and down a page for the higher or lower notes? You are using the arrow keys. But what to do in DDJ400?
Following!
I can't find a way to do it on my controller. You can do it directly in the software. See the 2 little arrows under the +3 in rekordbox? Those will take you to the extra pages.
I think I found it here: images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/B1%2BRaSAU0rS.pdf
Page 16 says shift + pad7 / pad8 to shift the page a semitone up or down
@@Woutersteggerda the real mvp here
I am wondering how do we get access to such great music library, i feel as a beginner the biggest thing i am having issues is with music library specially multi genre. Any idea where i can download like huge collection of songs?
You could look into record pools, some also have curated sets that work great when building a library.
it's possible to make chords?
Excuse me I have one question how can i press my cue point like you.If i press my cue points the song will still paly
It is very good tutorial and I have one question about rekordbox, how I can set a hotcue between to lines in wave?
Make sure "Quantize" is off, then you can set your cue points/hot cues everywhere you like and they don't snap to the beat grid.
@@GayGadget Ok thanks for it but where I can turn off that?
@@GayGadget I found it, thank you very much.
When i press the keybaord pad then the track just continues playing each time after i pres it how can i fix this?
Check out in preferences , check out for gate option...u have to search it ...I'm not sure ..check out priyon Joni scratching without wheels ..he explained it there
anyone done this with a DDJ FLX 4? I cant seem to use keyboard mode with the pads
7:28 … didn’t you play ‘Mixolydian’ when descending, instead of ‘natural minor’ like you did when you were ascending prior to that? Or do the pads in this mode work like some weird ‘mirror image’ (either side of the root note) fudge for DJs … ?! 🤔🙃
Hello,
I tried to follow the tutorial with my ddj400 but I face the following problem: On the tutorial I see that while you press the button, the music goes, but when you stop pressing it, music stops too. In my case once I press, the music continues, it does not have the behavior like the cue button, what could be the reason ? Thanks!
If you have the song playing when you choose the key it will continue playing from the cue point in that key. If you have the track paused it will function as a cure button in the respective key. You can think of it as just a regular hot cue the changes the note when pressed.
Another home that I just figured out is that you can flip through the keyboard pages by using the shift + pads 7 & 8 on the deck you're using keyboard mode on. In the video he has dedicated buttons for it but on the 400 it's kinda hidden. If you need shift and any of the other pads it will delete that cue point though.
@@RobertD_83 thanks for your replies bro! At then it came out that the problem was with my rekordbox config , I had to put it in vinyl mode and change couple settings , now it works the way it works in the video!
Go to Preferences > Controller > Deck > Hot Cue > then tick box that says 'During Pause, GATE playback is applied'. Thank me later ;)
You can do this w/ pioneer xp1 also
Dion Smith yes I’m ganna try it later
Such an amazing feature, my DDJ plays the rest of the song automaticly after I played on keyboard mode. Can someone tell me where I can put this off? :)
I have the same question...
See @larsdewitte6632 and @momagic786 reply from 3 years ago...
Preferences > Controller > Deck > Hot Cue > Select During Pause GATE Playback is Applied
how I activate this function, using djm s9 ?
With Serato this mode is called Pitch n Time
When i press the keyboard buttons it plays the song, even if i release the button it keeps playing. How do i turn this to push and hold? Im on a ddj 400 btw
St1nkySausage did u found out how? im having this problem
@@rmncrnl Sadly no, still looking for an answer
Go to Preferences > Controller > Deck > Hot Cue > the tick box that says 'During Pause, GATE playback is applied'. Thank me later ;)
Nice much easier with more pads
I dont understand the difference between Key Shift and Keyboard Mode, i think it is the same thing with and without the hot cue
Serato don’t have keyboard?
it's called pitch n time mode
6:16
Thanks for the video. But I want everyone to understand that the rules you said about which pad to use in what scale, ONLY APPLIES IF THE NOTE YOU CUED IS ACTUALLY THE ROOT NOTE! This basically means you gotta do this by ears. Period. ;-)
Please do a video with pitch bend In rekordbox
2:50 the tonal scale goes up from left to right. ok that's like a piano to go even higher... one would expect right page button?
Nope
Just like speeding up de BPM is sliding down. Ugh! Why????
agreed!
