Hey Beat Hackers,
In this week's video, I'm teaching you all about how to use cue points like the best DJs! Now some of you will already be familiar with cue points but I have started using them a lot more lately by color-coding cue points on all of my tracks! Let me know if you think this technique is helpful for when you're DJing in the comments below!
This is a great tutorial for anyone who is learning how to DJ and how to set cue points on your dj decks.
See you all next week,
Phil

u need to set my hot point up hehe great vids mate
Hi
Brilliant approach/ technique to mixing 👏
main stage
I've been a DJ for 9 years and I started doing this about 6 months ago. I've made more progress in the past 6 months than I have in all the last 9 years.
you t he worst dj in the world
@@derp36zz tha t so m ean
I've been researching dj tutorial videos for two days, I've never seen a video as good as this one, you are an educator, patient, and your explanations are clear and precise. you have talent.
Only a month into DJing and I feel this is gonna be huge for me. Really appreciate this and all your videos! Keep it up mate.
Rob Scales well, it’s not that easy.
@@luckin4tor it depends who you are and what your interests are, I find it rather easy, but I definitely need some practice
I doenst feels huge... it feels EFFORTLESS
Check out my music it’s free to use

I cant express my appreciation enough for these videos. I bought a ddj-400 close to a week and a half ago and have come further in that time period than expected due to your videos. The energy, thorough explanations, and hands on approach has really helped me along. I cant wait to continue to progress, and use your videos to do so! Cheers from New York!
Just wow, I have just started with DJing and watched many vids by different CZcamsrs to learn this art, they are all great but none of them are as helpfull as your vids.
Your such a nice person, keep it up!
Thank you Phil!
Great advice here guys, I have been DJing for well over 10 years but only stated doing this a few months ago. If you have a large library, it's going to take you awhile but trust me it's well worth it in the end. And, when it's done it's done, no more guessing if you have your timing right. Well done Phil, great advice.
It's not an easy thing to explain to people but you explain it very clearly. Great jobs Phil !
This is unbelievable. Your videos are so concise, I've only just started DJing but I feel like I'm months and months (if not longer) ahead of where I would be had I tried to learn this stuff elsewhere.
I love this. I'm a new DJ, but I have already discovered the more I can make effortless and automatic the more I have available for being creative and experimental.
I think these cue points show keeping a party rocking should never be a question past song selection. Tips like these is where the time comes to learn new tricks with samples, effects, and cued loops. At least that's my hope and my plan
I've looked at quite a few different channels and none have been as helpful as yours. For context I have really bad ADHD so learning can be hard for me but you break things down in a very simplified way and stick to the point. Thank you!
Phil, you did a great job here mate. The break down was superb. I like your teaching style and flow as well. Keep up the good work.
Instead of using the last cue for 8 bar outro, I've been using it for Breakdowns.
This is the best video out there on this subject. Thank you so much.
Phil Harris I bought your beginner program and honestly you are just the king of DJ your teaching skills are next level and I LOVE YOUR WORK thanks to you I Definetly feel I stand a chance live man thank you so much !
Hi Phil, just want to say a BIG BIG thank you for your videos man! I'm a producer learning the skills to dj! I've been struggling to get the slightest idea on how to play my songs on cue & mixing in and out..till I found your videos!! Just nailed my first real transition 😎 thanks to your 16 & 8 bar process! You the shit!!! 🔥💜
Hey Phil !! Awesome tutorial as always! Been using this cue-point technique in my mixes for several months now. Really great to keep energy up and surprise people by mixing songs together they did not expect.
Cheers!
Thank you DJ Phil for all your tutorials! You are amazing! God bless you!
Literally stuck in on lockdown and I’m watching through all your videos, so helpful and we’ll explained, thank you so much 🙌🏼
This was exactly what I needed for my first time adding cue points. Thanks for the tips!
You are absolutely amazing at explaining all your DJ tips and tricks and making it seem effortlessly natural! Thank you!!!
Phil you are the red cross of dj world. Your hints are priceless. Thank you for your effort. (I bought one of your lessons btw and it has been so useful for my technique)
The red cross of dj world xDD Yes, he is!
Hey Phil, I recently started DJing (started on the iPad Pro before I even had a controller, now I have a pro setup) and I just wanted to shout out a big “Thank You” for this amazing content you put out. I can see this dramatically changing my playing sessions, all about the organized & logical work. This would actually even provide that time needed for creative freedom during the mixes. Will definitely watch out for more content and also check out the free as well as paid courses.
After months still going through all the vids. I’ll always give you and your vids mad credit along my journey!
I've done lots of this type of hot cue mixing in the moment but the colour coding is absolute genius! Nice one, thanks!
A few nice words towards you legend...
I have just started producing music, literally few weeks ago and I am now starting to make semi, almost decent content and was interested in DJing. Just finished watching 3 of your videos and after this one, I am sold, getting my first DJ gear and will actually give it a try, you make everything SOO much easier to imagine and understand, cannot express my gratitude enough man, really appreciate you doing this for us. Wishing you all the best, you are a saint!
Just tried with a few songs and found this very helpful after watching a few tutorials I found this one to work rather well. Will upload a full mix once I’ve finished hot cueing the whole playlist
Seriously man .. without a second thought you sir are the best dj coach I have ever seen.. keep up the good work boss
Cheers mate ❤️🙏👍
This is great! Coz I was doing exactly what you said - load a track, set some cue points that seem good for that track, load the next track, do the same. I think this is much more organized and feels like I’ll be more prepared if I follow this. Now I just need to watch the whole video again, haha... then go through some tracks.
Man, this is super useful. I'm in my first week of learning how to DJ and I feel this video will make me progress super fast. You deserve a medal from the world DJ association or something.
Greetings from Chile 🇨🇱
How's it going right now?
I heard something like that from DJ Lateback Luke in a CZcams video that he did, but I didn't understand it at the time. Now that you have explained it and given examples, it has become clear to me. Thanks and I will immediately apply it to all my EDM music.
You have no idea how much this is gonna help me Phil, thanks a ton!!
this video is crazy helpful thank youso much.... this is one of the biggest things to making a perfect mix!!! you explain and help so much thank you thank you thank you!
Nice Video after a few weeks of working with the controller and understand the software and getting familiar with the Controller this makes much more sense to me. I had no idea what I was doing before still barely do but I am starting to get an understanding of things little by little now which feels great.
These are Golden Nuggets right here! For somebody who is just getting into Djing this is a Gem! Thanks Phil! Keep 'em droppin'!
This is a bit confusing for me. I think you should play the sections you're talking about more for auditory learners, like myself.
Love your channel. This is a great technique & you explained & demonstrated it well. Thank you for sharing your efforts.
Love this, I have been setting my hot cues at intro / outro / drop / buildup for ages but not doing bar counts and I'm going to have fun re-organising my library for this.
I already gave up my interest in learning to DJ years ago, now i am saving some money again to buy my first equipment just to keep up with your tutorials, thank you very much Phil 🙌
@11:22 for the full list of Hot Cues (labeled on screen) - This is such key DJ info, its not usually explained in "beginner DJ tutorials" - thanks mate x 1000
I'm struggling so is it 16 in to the intro (beginning) or not I'm finding it so hard to wrap my head around
WOW…………… I’ve been DJing for about 5 months now. I had to watch this video numerous times to really wrap my head around it. But, now that I understand it, a huge lightbulb 💡 went off in my head 🤯. Great vid, keep ‘‘em coming.
I like the consistency of the cue points and how it keeps the songs phrased properly- thank you!
This is probably the best DJ hack I’ve ever seen. Thanks for sharing, Phil.
This is the most helpful DJ tutorial I have found on CZcams! You did a fantastic job at explaining! Thank you for sharing this.
If anyone is having trouble finding the Beat Jump controls, you might have to activate that feature in your DJ Preference settings
you're a saint
You sir are a god
I don't understand i have this in front of me on my Denon SC5000m's
do you happen to know where this would be at?
This is so usefull !! Thanks
Love it! Thank you sir. I just started djing about 1 week and I’m already beat matching really good.
Best explanation I’ve heard so far on how to use the hot queues. Fantastic
Many thanks Phil - this is such a handy tip - of course it has created me a bucket load of work - rehashing everything but I can already see the results !
Already decided it's too big a task to go back and change everything that's historical but doing it as I go forward will make a big difference soon enough
This video has helped me out DJing more than any video I’ve ever seen on CZcams. I wish I knew this from the start and set my tracks up like this from day one.
Thank you so much!! It’s really hard to find good videos like this on youtube ❤
Thank you so much I’ve just started about two weeks ago I haven’t stopped watching your videos
I was looking though videos in English an Spanish , how to set cues in a logic way, hot to mapping a song. Phil did it, it has logic , some mathematics , but in the end is so practical. He shows you a methodology which is valid and useful. That is for sharing
Beginner dj, and before I even tried learning cue points I watched this. I think I about half understand the method and it's freagin brilliant. Now to go practice it. Thank you!
Honestly this is some next level advice for starting out. Had no idea how to use the cue points as I onlu stated today. Im already getting rhe hang of mixing without having to use beat synch.
Super handy tip and fantastic explanation! Thanks a lot Phil.
Wow what a legend! You managed to simplify that so even I could understand. 👏🏻
really useful video! Im just starting djing and this got rid of a lot of doubts and questions i had. Thank you so much!
Love this video wow I can already tell this is going to be super helpful as opposed to me setting random cue points all over the place!
Great organization to the cue points! Very logical and well thought out. This makes mixing the in and out a very creative and less cerebral. Well done!
The gods of CZcams's algorithms knew I needed this video today as I shifted OS, upgraded DJ software, ditching iTunes,vand step up to better music which means starting aaaaawl over again. That's okay... it's time. I've got hundreds of songs I've ripped down in mediocre quality and a smattering of different markers and hot cue setups which I really don't even use much anymore because they don't make sense. The phrasing of the music always makes sense, so your tip about setting markers by color in the same fashion across the board makes great sense, so -- like your cross drops -- your tip was perfectly timed. Thanks again!
❤️ it.
Using all the technology capacity.
Smart colors!!!
I just started going through and methodically cueing all my music. The color system is brilliant. I’m color blind but still will work. Thanx.
Oh Philip, this is what ive been looking for! Its going to take me a lifetime to update my tracks but I reckon it will be worth it! Nice job!
This video is huge! Thank you! Also, throughout the video, I kept rubbing the speck on my phone screen to realize it was a spot on your wall lol.
I personally have never met an Irish person, but I've imagined them, and you sir are exactly the epitome of that imagnation.
I have been doing about 90% of this as I have been learning to DJ. Great video!
You are a GOD. Not even joking. Know that im speaking the truth people, because I just got my device 3 days ago and this content is just HUUUUUUUUUUGE. Thanks Phil!
Been looking this over and over again. Realy helpfull. Thanks!
It’s all finally starting to make sense thank you for the great post!
One of the most helpful videos I've seen. Thank you!!
Game changer. Thank you. As others have said, this transformed my mixing.
Yes this is what i have just started doing so thanks a lot and i really will go live production couching too see you there mate respect 🙌
Who gets married and drops 20 lbs? Good on ya! I've been geeking out on your vids last couple months man and sharing them with my other rookie DJ friends. Thanks for the work you're doing!
Also love your funnel ;)
It's fun to see what you're doing there too
I started this week, I've never done anything like this before. So very new and interesting. Im on the course and watching loads of videos. Cheers all.
Tell us how you go, his video's are so helpful for a serious beginner! Toying with his course!
@@VukyMonster well in 3 weeks I’ve learned, and learnt how to blend Tracks together. I never had a clue how to do this. Now I’m playing tracks and blending them well. So I’ve definitely picked up something from being a total novice. I’m learning my cue points now. To bring tracks in a different way. Very good course. In Lehman’s terms as-well Phil makes it easier to pick up.
Just started to dj, this is the best explanation i saw in 2 weeks thanx!!
This is the best video I've seen on how to set cue points. Thanks man.
I like the idea of all the cue points and markers , but it’s nice sometimes just to try and feel the music.
I am also learning little tricks all the time , just to enhance my own Doj ing but love your. Tutorials.
Thanks again
the best of your videos!!!!thank you phil
you opend up my eyes with cue points thanx! i was struggling
This is huge cant wait to have all my songs re-cued this way
That is a super valuable teching video and soooo useful to color-code your hot cues consistently in your prep work
Wow just watched this now to get my head around it as it made sense, but I’ve only just set out on my DJ journey, so I came across this at the right time 👍👍
Great video mate, I love your system. I am going to try this. I love the idea of effortlessly navigating through the tracks using the hot cues. Amazing. Subscribed, and thanks so much.
It’s the third time I’m watching this video I’m slowly getting it you’re a legend Thank you mate
Thank you sooo much for sharing your amazing videos with us 💜🙏💜
This explanation of hot cues was extremely helpful! Thank you!
Great video Phil! Really good tips. Thanks 👍
This is so helpful! Thank you so much! Appreciate all your work. Greetings from Germany!
This video is revolutionary for the beginner DJ.
Awesome Love it great class. Very useful. Thank you and looking forward to more great techniques and tips.
excellent explanation!!! thank you! i watched many other videos and yours is the best! thank you!!
Really helpful tutorial on where to set your cuepoints. Thanks a lot!
DJing for over 10 years now, just getting into digital. This is gold.
Hey I've been DJing electronic music for a bit longe than 10 years on Vinyl I think it was tougher back in those days, you had to know the song and read the vinyl waves to mix, I bought a Denon controler a couple of years ago and Ive just come to realise that everything has changed with digital music making it easy to mix and have mor time to chill but Ive also notice much more tools and be able to mix much much cleaner than back in the 90's on a nightclub set, I have a question for you.
Have you bought the course? whant your opinion.
i been a dj for a number of years your videos cleared up a few things i was doing wrong want to learn more from you
This is the best color coding technique I've seen, thanks!
wait till u see my video. Your all wasting your time if you using any software apart from vdj.Your all years, decades behind. Your gonna find that all music although 4/4 does not mean that the first beat is on bar. Also some people make tracks and do something fancy like drop the beats out before the end of a sequence, or change tempo, but don't adjust it so it falls back in line. Oh no what ya gonna do. Use vdj and you can fix it. Variable bpm is standard. Color coding isn't a dj hack, it's essential, but u need software that has features that. oh yeah serato has no features u have to add them. VDJ uses colour to show vocal, beats , bass. why u ask, cause you can make accapellas on the fly, strip any part of a track. VDJ allows you to allocate colour to buttons for any reason u wish, i patty u all. im buzzing, but whats his excuse, y use serato when it's shit
you are my absolute favorite. You explain it perfectly. thank you so much.
Thank god we have Phil
great video!! well explained. got a lot of use out of this one!!
I used to mix on a pair of tech 1200s
I've ordered a controller, these videos are very helpful.
thank you.
Really great way of using cues. I think in deep house and progressive sets where I mix for 1-2 min it's not so helpful but with Drum n Bass sets this style of cueing makes mad sense 🥳🥳🥳
Started djing in 1999. This is amazing! Great job bud!! Mind blown!!
I was around that time too, on vinyl decks. Just got a controller and thought they were amazing, now I've seen this video I think they are absolutely insane!
