Lucio
keep it up bro loving the knowledge your dropping
You are a god send. Sooo helpful! LOVE your videos!
Just starting out learning bout DJing and scratching..and your tutorial videos are truely awesome..thank you for the video n sharing the knowledge..
Who are the 10 haters that put thumbs down. This vid is excellent. Great 👍 work .
Thank You, DJTLM for clearing up how to use a cue and gain function on the mixer. I am just starting out and I'm learning a lot from your videos. I appreciate the time and sacrifice you make (away from family and down time) to educate us beginner DJs. Keep up the awesome work! And once again, Thank You : )
Thanks for the support!
Invaluable info. Thanks!
Hi djTLMtv, just want to say I have always been unclear on where to start and how to do it but tonight I have come across your videos and feel completely inspired and positive it can be learnt. You are really good at explaining this in an understandable way for a complete newbie, so I would like to ask you if there is room in your life to share your knowledge please continue doing so, both for beginners and more advanced (it's really a noble thing that you share with us for free these days).
I currently live in Berlin and see a lot of good stuff and have decided to do this even though I am 35, not because of money or fame but because I feel something inexplicable when listening to certain styles and mixes, music can be so soothing and provoking at the same time, and it connects us all.
This new DJ era really turns DJing into an art of it's own and I consider all those who play around with sound and turn it into something new and beautiful true artists. I believe all humans have an innate need to create, and you are helping many of us by providing this tool knowledge so we can create the music the way we feel it and share with others. Peace and many thanks.
Thanks for all this advice, you are really helping me get started!
Thanks a lot for these videos man
Great Tutorial, Thanks
Great advice!
Thanks your videos are great.
I do I.T and know a lot about electronics, and thought this video was going to be dull and pointless. I am writing to say subbed! Thank you, as this answered a lot of the what is this really for. I stumbled on this as I recently purchased the Big boy amps, crossover and got the sounds setup super sweet, wife bought me the Numark MT pro 3 and I am starting from the beginning on how to scratch! For years music has been my life. So I know my music, Now I want to play with the music to make it fun.. Who knows maybe one day when I get good wife can listen to my jams!
DJ TLM, thank you so much for this video! I sent you a message on IG and we spoke about my situation. I decided to go back to the very basics and fundamentals of being a DJ. After being a DJ for almost 1 year or so, I skipped the fundamentals and went straight into using shortcuts. As of today, I'm going back to phase 1 and starting all over again from scratch and mastering these fundamentals in chronological order. My success will be because of mentors like you. Watch me! Thank you!
Great! Always a good move. Good luck and enjoy!
U are professional Bro my respect!
thanks a lot for all these
Thank you!
THANKS DUDE!!!
thanks for your videos! very easy to understand...your videos made me realize how hard djing is! so much complicated stuff involved...although im not planning to become a dj i love music and now have a better understanding the structure of music and now i can tell what manupulations a dj does when playing.. Your tutorials are great!
+Curious Thanks for watching
V.helpful.. Thank You 😀
Very helpful! Much appreciated
Just getting started and I’m loving your videos, thanks 🤙🏻
👍🏾👍🏾
Great tutorial with excellent points. Hooked to your videos, and can't wait to see the follow-up tutorial. Thanks for sharing.
That's dope!💪🏾💪🏾
Hi, I'm not even a DJ but I want to learn. I like your videos. They are very easy to understand.
Thank you very much mate, you are very clear! Keep it up
+Valentino Lucisano thanks
I love these man! I've seen your videos on the different set up and am gonna try time code on vinyl, I haven't seen you cover 2 vinyls, and a laptop in a three line mixer, for those hard to find songs or impossible to find marlib or dilla vinyls.. I would love to see you do a video on something of the sort.. mix in from deck one to cpu then cpu out to deck two. That's how I've done digital with vinyl but man that time code looks dope!
You may find it weird but i really like that tempo fader shows you that you are exactly in the normal speed of the song by opening this little light
awsome vid!
You are the best wow..
Thank you your tutorials are the best!!!
Thank you!
thanks djTLM!
helpful video's man
these videos are awesome thanks for all the info!!!
🙏🏽
Thanks am following🙏
👊🏾
you are just too damn good
thanks buddy, round of applause,
DJ BabyLing
you really should sell your DJ lessons and make money doing this! There's a DJ school here in Austin called The Dub Academy that used to charge $400 for DJ 101 (each session is 3 weeks long), another $400 for DJ 102, and another $400 for DJ103, but b/c I've learned all the basics from all my DJ friends, I don't need DJ 101 and I already have all my equipment at home, so i don't need to pay for use of equipment. I say you should charge b/c your DJ videos are such good quality, your voice is clear and you talk just at the right speed that I can really hear and listen to what you area saying and I'd rather pay say $100 to watch your videos that i can watch over and over again if i need to than to pay $400 for 3 weeks worth of DJ classes. Plus not everyone has a DJ school in their city or town, so I think you could really do well!
Those are some fresh kicks on those shelves, homie!
+Travis Reifke (CardiacCat85) Thanks
please finish this series!!!!!!!
Another great part to this series. I saw it a lot with new DJs. They were bedroom DJs who thought they were great and they might be pretty good on their cheap home setup but they were totally lost on an expensive club install setup. Last night they practiced on their $60.00 Gemini Scratch master but tonight they are expected to use a $1400.00 Rane mp24 or a Dennon mixer. I also used to be the resident in a club where there WAS a 1/2 second sound delay between the booth and the dance floor... AND NO BOOTH MONITORS!!! A young or new DJ just hasn't gained the experience to know how to cope with that yet One young DJ I ran into could hardly make it through the night because he couldnt mix without a split cue in his headphones (cue in the left ear and master in the right) he spun one trainwreck after another because the club's installed Numark mixer didn't have that function. some of the new young DJs couldn't make the adjustment from a 10 inch 2 channel battle mixer to a 19 inch 4 channel club install mixer. If you really want to pull off a last minute save for some event organizer try spinning a short 30 minute DJ set at a downtown street festival just to keep the crowd happy using a Mackie 1604 PA mixer (look it up, 16 mono channels) and two discman CD players. I've done it, and it's not ideal, but would a young DJ even know what cables to use and where to plug them in to that PA mixer?
You are so right! I've been in a lot of those situations. It makes you a better DJ. Same thing with long sets. I remember when playing 6 hour solo sets was a normal thing. I see a lot of DJ's now who only do 1 to 2 hour sets and complain about the one time they had to play 3 hours ;)
In the pre Pioneer days I had to deal with a lot of 6 or 8 channel mixers with no crossfader. It's not ideal, but you learn so much from those situations
djTLMtv Yup... 6 hour sets used to be normal I used to gig at a bar in Columbia South Carolina that was known to be the local bar employees bar. After every body else's bar closed they met up at this bar so that meant a lot of after hours parties. For a time while I had that regular gig I had another regular gig 200 miles away (I would be what you call nowdays a mobile doing clubs) These after hours nights would sometimes last until 4-5am then tear down, load up and hit the road to Burlington North Carolina. sometimes you just have to pull into a rest area and sleep in your van but before you get there. Luckily the gig the next night was at a hotel bar and part of my pay was a hotel room.
Well, I feel preety secure right there - my only equipment is mouse and keyboard ! :)
So in you opinion is the Shure 447s the best scratch needles I've heard some last longer
where is the cue on a vestax spin 2 mixer? thanks for all your help.
Thank you so much!
+vamia washington You're welcome. Thanks for watching
DJTLM...what are some of the best ..underground loop isolators .., that we can used ..when we are performing for more than 300 folks other ?
Hey DJtlm
This is a personal question, I am planning to attend DJ course work offered by dubspot.com in LA.
The price seems expensive (1300$ if I reserve it this friday), but wanted to get trained in person. Any idea if this would be worth it ?
Btw I your posts are really helpful. I learn a lot sitting at home through your videos.
What about the "Cue" button on the newer controllers such as Numark Platinum. It is not there for the same thing, what is it there for exactly?
Could you possibly do a video on how to use a 'dj battle tool vinyl' or the same if the vinyl is ripped to mp3 as one long track. I know its a stupid question, but as a beginner its confusing. Alot of my samples are all joined together, eg. Ahhh, fresh, 1234, etc, and there's hardly any space between them. Some of the beat samples are so short too. So basically, im unsure what im doing and how to use these samples properly or how to do a mix with them.
I miss working as a sound and light tech, I don't have this kind of strip on my controller :( Thank for all tutorial :)
Yeah, tech continues to develop and there's a lot of great new toys on the market for DJs nowadays
Maybe worth noting is that with mixers like the pioneer 800 the digital/line switch is on the back panel, for the guys switching between serato and usb and vice verca. At first I did not know that, at one of my first gigs I was up following a guy using usb's, I hooked up my serato correctly but only got sound out of 1 channel. Turned out the switch was on digital, and I didn't figure you would have to look for something at the back panel of the mixer. Had me going back to back with that guy instead of just doing my thing :p
Damn, forgot about that one! Been there, and had to find out the hard way too. It is not a logical place for those switches!
so there are two ways to match the songs 1)from cue and then do it manually and 2) by just pressing sync. Right?
Can anyone chime in with my query below?
I recently purchased a Numark M2 "Scratch Mixer" and notice that it doesn't seem to take much dirt, use, etc for the fader to begin slightly bleeding in certain spots towards the end.
This prompts me to ask the question, would it be worth investing in an Innofader down the track to install into this mixer? The Innofader would basically cost more than the total mixer does brand new but as it's what is primarily used when scratching, can it still be considered an investment?
Thanks.
Hey there!!! i was just wondering. I'm gonna use a CDJ800 for the first time on saturday, and i'm used to using a controller. i just want to ask, HOW do i load tracks FROM SERATO SCRATCH LIVE using PIONEER CDJ800 TO DECKS 1 AND 2. CAUSE on NUMARK MIXTRACK PRO 3 YOU CAN FIND the LOAD button for decks 1 and 2 on the top. how do i load tracks to deck 1 and deck 2 on a CDJ800???
HELP!! hehe = )
I wish I could play around with a DJM900 :\
A DDJ SB2 is great (really they are sensational beginner mixers) but after 5 months it's getting boring and feels limiting at times not to mention mines wearing out already because of how much I use it
What kind of travel case are you using to store your dicers?
+DJ SL! I have a case logic case for a camera that was roughly the right size to fit the dicers
appreciate the videos man big help. where did you cop the tee?
Got that at the Nike store
hey......
when the song on the two cds gets finished..
do we have to manually change it?
alan jbilji depends on if you are on single , continous or repeat
I practice djing at my desk but should I be standing ? Does it matter ?
Hi DJTLM! May I know the difference between cdj and a controller and the different equipment for DJ'ing or its parts? So sorry just really a beginner- to-be here thanks!
+Ivyan DJBeduya the cdj is a media player which allows you to play music from a cd, usb drive of sd card. A controller is a piece of hardware that allows you to control software on your computer.
Thank you! Stay dope! :)
Did you upgrade your CF on the DJM 909 with an Innofader ?
No, I always loved the 909 fader
Great video, but unfortunately the position displayed is not the best. I suggest repositioning the camera and filming as we would see when applying your knowledge to equipment.
you know what would be great? if you could turn the camera upside down so we could have better POV;)
@Dj TLM Everyone says traktor is extremely difficult. Do you agree have you ever used it.
I tried to use it a couple of times, but something went wrong every time. Mostly hardware problems though.
Serato and Traktor are similar systems so the basic functions work the same way. The major difference is that Traktor has way more options and those options can confuse people and make Traktor seem difficult. The question you have to ask yourself is do you need the extra options Traktor has to offer?
Think of it like comparing IOS to Android. IOS keeps it 'simple' and Android gives you a million options to customize everything.
I am going to stalk Native Instruments to see if I can get my hands on Traktor to do some video's, but I think they only work with the bigger channels ;)
I can't find my cue botton :( i'm using virtual dj
Hey tlm.I just wanted to ask that do you have any of ur vedio in the club!?I just wanted to see how u rock the party!!
You can check my old channel czcams.com/users/djTLM but some video's have been removed by CZcams and others no longer have the audio (also taken away by CZcams).

unblocker[D0T]YT ... wors great ;]
very easy to understand...thank you so much for this...sent you an email 18 March!!no response :((
+LL What was the email about? And did you send it again? I get so much mail and comments (youtube, soundcloud, twitter, instagram, Facebook, snapchat) that I do miss things
Who else is watching these videos while not having a damn idea about DJing?
Me! 😁
LOL u fudjing awesome
I guess you've missed one important feature in this video: crossfader's curve type.
Hmmm, I clearly mention and explain the function of the crossfader 7 minutes into the video. I don't go into the fader curve but I talk about that in the scratch tutorials.
@@djTLMtv It seems that I didn't quite clearly put it. I'll try to explain, what I mean. If you're playing on someone's mixer, and you're used to make more or less smooth transitions using crossfader (as I do, for instance), you definitely have to check the crossfader mode (the curve shape) before you start to play. Maybe the DJ, who played before you, was using it for scratching, or maybe nobody's using the crossfader in this club at all. In this case, you can get into an awkward situation, when you're moving the crossfader just a little bit, and the second track starts to play on 100% volume. That's why I guess the information about this little switch is essential too.
Anyway, thank you for your lessons! I'm watching your channel since 2013 :)) Greetings from Ukraine)
I can't turn the power off to these drums! What? Aye, where is the power button? They have so much power. I don't even know how to turn off the power. The drum power. There's got to be a button. It's power hour!
Gain and volume aren't necessarily the same
Gain on a mixer is the volume control
sorry but the gain knob is not a volume knob
+Sean Winter please explain

Hi guys,
I've been extremely busy with different projects, gigs and private life and as a result I was not able to make new video's in the last two weeks. I'm back in the lab right now and the new video's are dropping asap!
Thanks for the support and patience.
TLM
Hi guys,
Due to health issues I couldn't finish video's I was working on (NS7-2 review) and I can't record new video's either. I lost my voice over the weekend and that makes it a bit difficult to record stuff ;)
I should be fine in a couple of days so stay tuned!
For the DJ's who would like to be part of the Saturday Super Session: Join the Saturday Super Session and send me your own video!
