      Hey what's up !!! Let's goooo 🔥💪🔥
      Oh ya, I can most definitely understand the intimidation
      So many buttons and knobs and not really knowing what they do,
      But a little secret, is djing is sooooooooooooo easy
      And actually usually alot easier for girls cause you guys normally have danced or understand rhythm a bit better
      Learning to count beats for me was really difficult,
      But the process of mixing and everything is actually super simple
      Hope to see you around !!!

    Hello, I just downloaded the 3.1.2 version and it's all completely different: there's no fx botton and the stem thing does not work. Plus Q and A button does not work as changing deck but just to reverse the song. Is there a way to assign different buttons to the software?

    • @TheDJConnect
      @TheDJConnect  Před 2 měsíci

      Hey, different than what?
      Q+A has always changed reverse since the beginning of serato,

      Is your controller connected?

    Is it normal to have to edit several beat grids on a place list? Haven’t had this issue since downloading serato 3.0. Seems every time I start blending to practice I notice several songs that need editing

    • @TheDJConnect
      @TheDJConnect  Před rokem

      Honestly I'm not too sure bro
      I don't use beat grids
      I'd recommend not relying on them
      But I would say it prob comes down to track quality
      Most record pool tracks come pre gridded

    Hello! Maybe really stupid question, but I am beginner and I have a controller only for a few days 😁
    Example. Song on Deck 1 is 130 BPM and on Deck 2 is 140 BPM
    Is legit and correct Deck 1 slowly speed up and and fade out to transition to Deck 2?
    Imagine it’s drum & bass music and I don’t want change BPM on my song on Deck 2.
    I tried djay sync and when I used crossfader, it automatically speed or slown down BPM during transition.
    I only want know, If this is opiton in fine. If is fine, when I will play songs on every Deck in original BPM and not slown down like you.
    Thanks for your time if you answer.

      You can't get music from sound Cloud or Spotify
      You need a music library.

      Best source is an option, but you're gonna waste alot of money and in the end never own it
