Excellent video this! One of the biggest mistakes I made when starting was only using the crossfader for mixing. When I realise I can do all that myself by using EQs and learning about frequencies....increased my mixing ability by at least 200%! So yeah, practice and practice and practice this technique and you WILL be a better technical DJ ....song choice is still always the most important thing!
Your videos and training has been SO helpful! I'm about halfway through your beginner training and I am learning so much. I really appreciate all the time and effort you've put into this. You're a really good teacher and the course has been easy to move through. Some of my mixes are coming out perfect...others still have that "shoes in a dryer" sound (lol, if this was easy everyone would be doing it). I cannot wait to mix my first full set perfectly! Thank you so much.
Very useful information! Most helpful for sure, when making room to mix tracks together. It's only semantics, but to remain technically accurate, "white noise" is actually all audible frequencies at once, from the lowest to the highest, with each frequency being of equal loudness. White noise in a spectrum analyzer is a flat line across the spectrum.
AWESOME teachings bro ! You explained it beautifully & also great idea with the visual representaion !!! Now i got an image in my head on wtf im doing when im twisting them knobs lol Keep it UP !!!
Not even finished the video and I must say: THANK YOU, this is exactly what I as a beginner need to know to realize what I am actually doing! I really appreciate this. THUMBS UP !!
Hello, I’m a live sound man, musician and banquet hall DJ. I found your video on mixing with the EQ knobs to be an eye opening experience. Thanks for sharing your knowledge 😎
I recently started my course doing dj under Phil Harris dj course. Each course helped me improved my skills as a DJ. This video was recommended in his course 11. As a edm producer I yet have not master understanding the EQ mixing. This video surely improved my knowledge. Although it’s a DJ course it also allow me to understand and add ideas to some good automation effect on my tracks. Thanks Phil Harris!
I thought I knew about this....but I didn't. Thanks again Phil .Super explanation. I use the H/F filter all the time for blending but think I'll give the indivudual knobs a go for a more subtle transition.
I love the way you teach and explain everything. Im always the dj for my family and im sick of playlists with ads n such. Im very happy to have found your channel to help me become a real dj. YOU ROCK!
I often use a two band EQ to create interesting sweeping effect on the sound and I didn't learn it from anyone but I notice alot of popular dance music use this effect.
Great video mate! Abelton live...everytime I hear of abelton live I think back to the time when/how DJ Sasha superbly edited Space Manoeuvres Stage one track when making his Global Underground Ibiza mix! That’s why you can’t get that particular mix of Space Manoeuvres stage one as there isn’t as such a mix available commercially as Sasha used abelton live to make his very own remix of that tune and what a top notch job he did at that!👍
Hi Phil, thanks for the video so you take the mids or Lowe’s down from track that is playing and raise the levels on the track your bringing in correct
That's so great Phil, I enjoy your lessons a lot! Indeed your youtube lessons gave me more than face 2 face ones...damn! Good luck with your career and everything, shake your hand pall :)
Amazing once again. You answered ALL my questions about this subject, that no one really talk about in a easy way. i am looking forward the day I can buy my Pioneer DDJ 1000 and start to practice. I practice on virtial DJ 2021 for the moment in both my stationary and my new laptop I bought both for film editing during my trips and to have as my "DJ laptop". Once again, thank you for all your videos, they really teach me all I need to know to start to practicing to become a DJ.
Love all of your videos very informative. I'm a music lover for life dancer for life DJ since last Father's Day. Progression coming along but videos like this definitely help out thanks 🎶🔊👍
Please help! How to keep the level of each particular frequencies not just by relying on ear. And especially the kicks and base line. Highs can be just too sharp for a little, when played together too loud, mids can be little messi for that while. But the rhythm... too loud kicks can destroy the sound system, cause clicking or overwhelm the other frequencies... or on the other side when they dissappear the continuality is broken and as the kicks are felt by the whole body, the music loses the atractivity and drive. That is unwanted. Not everytime the monitors are perfect, hearing the master can be tricky while it is pointed to the audience not towards the DJ. So the hearing ability can be difficult to use. The master level lights shows all the frequencies together, so bad for separate check. Have only few steps - not enough sensible - change significantly only when it is too much of more or less. In fact when this happens, it is often already too late... So how to be able to keep the lows under the control and keep their level while switching them slowly??? So the changing process is as smooth as possible so it sounds naturally and you are in a new song without any transition noticed by the listeners...
Have you heard about the new hybrid synth VST by Ummet Ozcan called Genesis Pro? It’s for Windows PC’s with the jBridge extension. It sounds terrific! Best of all it only costs €1.00. It is being released next month.
Were is the settings to get the same beat , not all beats are the same , some are baseier than others , so when mixing you can hear the change a quite substantially Theres is a number on display on some software what tells you the tracks beat , so you can match tracks that way so your beats are perfectly matched but I dont know what I'm looking for , cam you please help
Hey Phil, love your videos! Big fan. I'm just getting started djing and have made so much progress from what I've learned from you. A question I have though, is there a difference in style when djing live for a crowd versus just making a mix to share online. Does that question make sense? What I'm asking is, is there such thing as live performance style? If so what does it look/sound like? Like constantly mixing into drops and keeping energy high the whole time with minimal luls or breakdowns. Thanks!!
Hi please can someone help me. I'm really struggling with knowing how to listen to one song in my earphones and the other in through the speakers using my Traktor S2 Controller. basically how do you have one track playing and listen to the other track on this particular controller..thanks!!!

Excellent video, my mistake is either swapping bass too soon and taking too long to mix out!! Nice one Phil

Hi Phil , I did not understand how to use de EQs on a currently mixing , can you explain please?
what are the songs you mixed at the end of the video please?? Thanks in advance
I know one but looking for the other, did you find them out?
@@oscarshergold2958 No I don't know either of them yet. Which one do you know please?
Great video phil, will be doing this on my dj sets. What was the
Name of that song you had playing on the left deck, banging song.
hey phil was the music that started playing for a bit at 1:59? it was really good
Do you think We can use the dj controller to do bootlegs .
Specially if with a copyrighted song and make no copyrighted and monetize it
Thank YoU.
Joh joh joh apti Philly
Hi! if i have songs with cue points and use Platinum Notes, does my cue points stay in rekordbox or do PN delete them? :)
i found that i turn down the mid and low to make the hit hat stand out when mixin in the song
Can I quit the copyright or can I make a song become new like no one have heard before and be able to monetize it on CZcams Phill?
which pioneer ddj are you using in this video?
Hi please can someone help me. I'm really struggling with knowing how to listen to one song in my earphones and the other in through the speakers using my Traktor S2 Controller. basically how do you have one track playing and listen to the other track on this particular controller..thanks!!!
