- Hopefully this video will help some of you in your mixing.
*Please note your channels should not be going into the red like they do in this Video - This was my bad as I could not see the channels - Will address in next vid.
Simple tutorial on double drop and mixing rollers tracks - I have recently gone more in depth in this video -

*I apologise for the channel levels and EQs being off in the video I was very warped in explaining and not paying attention. Apologies
Couple things I should address about this video as it was the first tutorial I made and some things weren’t 100%. First off is YOU SHOULD NOT BE GOING INTO THE RED on your channel levels. Secondly the bass on your EQ of either track should be TURNED ALL THE WAY DOWN and not a slight amount like shown in the video! I apologise for the errors in this video it was the first tutorial I had made and certain things weren’t addressed! I hope the video still serves some purpose and helps in any way it can but please please take note of those two bits I’ve stated above as they are vital!
Huge love to you all ❤️
Dude you are a legend. These tutorials are so so helpful.
Yo love to hear it’s helping in some way. Much love 👊🏻
Thank you for the speach in the end. Really gave me enthusiasm, because sometimes DJing looks to complicated. Big up!
Big ups bro this stuff is all so useful, you're great at explaining and keeping it chill friendly vibes 👊
So Pleased to hear it’s helping! Good luck with the DJing g 🤘🏻
Nice bro hopefully this will help a load of people new to mixing!!
DJ MT is a simple video but that’s the goal! 🙌🏻 Appreciate it
Nice vid man, but just a tip - use the EQs to blend two songs in together. Also, use the trims to keep them both tracks out of the reds as this will distort the sound quality and may damage your speakers.
I love this video bro !!! thank you heaps for the tips !! 🙏 100% right at the end djing is a very slow process, Learn to love the process with anything because once u have reached that goal you will never be unsatisfied at the end you will just keep loving it ❤️ , that's what's I believe
good stuff brother
You are so helpful thank you so much ❤️
Glad I could help ☺️♥️
Wow that’s sick 🤣🤘🏽
You need to eq your doubles it sounds super muggy
I agree. It’s my bad as At the time I really wasn’t thinking about EQs/channel levels - hence why they’re in the red - purely as I hadn’t made a video like this before and was very warped in explaining. Apologies
Yes
need to do some more videos on tips, great help
cmacastle Really appreciate it, I will be getting more tips and videos like this on the channel soon!
what gear do you use?
Thanks bro really helpful, would love to see more.
flynn keenan love to hear that thank you! If you have any suggestions as to what you’d like to see in future videos like this I’d love to hear it ✌🏻
You make it look so easy 😂
Ryan Griffin when you work out the 8/16/32 bar sections, it comes to you pretty easy
Can you do a video of how to switch
I’m fairly new to mixing and I’m just now starting to grasp what you covered in the video but I was fairly confused about what you were doing with the jog and loop when you bring a new song in
I’m new as well, hella confused
My apologies I should have gone more in depth with it. So if you go over to your loop section on your software serato/recordbox you’ll find you have numbers of 2/4/8/16/32 - these are beats- using the loop feature go onto 32 beats and use your loop to line up 32 beats so it the loop begins again just before the track drops. Do this with another track, then when you hit play on both tracks you know you have exactly 32 beats until they both drop and they will stay aligned.
I hope this helps in some way ✌🏻
cheers for the guide mate really helped me - any tips on how to keep a mix flowing? of course it's down to creativity but how long should a track be playing in general before switching to the next? And should I have my cue points set on every track and plan exactly how and when I'm going to drop each tune? quite new to all this so any help is appreciated
Really pleased to hear they’re helping mate! You’ve also done me a massive favour by listing some things you’d like some help with, as I was stuck on what kind of things to include in the next how to videos so will try cover as many points as I can. Thanks once again mate good luck with the DJing - in the meantime will try get the video up as soon as I can 👊🏻✌🏻
How do you align them to make them drop at the same time? I have no clue how to drop the other when one is playing.
Exactly my problem mate
@@lusziigx5459 yeah same
Use cue points so u know how many bars till it drops after that cue point. then whn u see the cue point u know how long till it drops
How do u know how to line it up and where it'll drop when it's zoomed in
beat counting and just knowing the songs you're playing
Comfortable in the red?
How do you knpw which songs will sound brilliant when beat matching and tempo matching?
This ones really hard to put into words. I have a video where I’ve done my best to explain it. I hope it helps my bro czcams.com/video/H31_hddwmMg/video.html
@@MedicineDNB ok thanks mate
What software is that? I've got serrato
It's serato
yoooo why you doin tutorials with your output hitting RED! nice tracks tho
Track id at 3:47?
pulling down the volume fader on the main track like in the last mix is defo a big no no
Good shit brada. When u move to ger pn me❤️
Much love thank you🙌🏻 misreading this second bit as I was unaware I’m moving to Germany 😂 but if I do I will be sure to 🙌🏻👊🏻
You got a link for the second track bro
dill_jle czcams.com/video/ocypI8rGJTI/video.html hopefully this is the one
ya should try turntables m8!
Olivier Garidou have used a mates and Personally they don’t suit my style of mixing.
Matts Medicine doesn’t even have to suit your style of mixing, use whatever equipment you want!
@@MedicineDNB if you can spin on tables you can play on anything
You weren’t even beatmatched from Envy to Terminal?
My apologies bro! This was my first time making a how to video so focusing on the filming,commentary and DJing did get a lil overwhelming at times so it’s not perfect however I hoped it still helped in some way 👊🏻
If mixing in 170+ bpm instead of 80 would I be right in thinking you would use 64 beats and not 32
So when your mixing at 87.5 you are still in fact mixing at 175. The software has simply halved the bpm making it easier/faster for you to adjust the bpm as you have to move .5 of a bpm for every 1bpm at 175 if that makes sense (i still am unsure why the software has done this) but 9 times out 10 it’s just halved the bpm of the track to make it easier for you to adjust the bpm as a dnb track at 80 bpm would be slow af. Going back to your original question being no the tracks beats will still work in the same pattern. I hope this has made sense and helped /answers your question 👌🏻 if not /still confused feel free to reach out on one of my socials and we can discuss further there
Apologies I don't really use social media, I understand that there will still be 32 bars of music, what I meant was in terms of the beatgrid and setting cue points if at 174 bpm there would be double the beats on the beat grid, meaning would I need to set the cue points 64 beats back on the beat grid and not 32
I should have said 32 beats of music not bars
bros red lining
I dont wanna be mean but ur not good enough to be teaching other djs how to play. U beatmatch sloppy and don't use the eqs and filters. this way everything sounds kinda bad especially if u would play it over a big sound system
Thank you for your comment. I made this video a year from when I started DJing. I know there are some aspects of this video that aren’t quite right as it was my first time making a tutorial video. it has/still is helping a lot of people find the basics of starting out mixing which is why I’ve kept it up. If you’d like to take some time to watch some of my later tutorials/mix’s you’ll soon see that the things you have mentioned are covered in my future videos and I don’t do in my mix’s. Many thanks
