Hey all--
great forums here, love reading the posts.
i'm learning how to dj, spinning all hip-hop right now. I have doubles of some of my records, and have just started trying to pull longer mix-ins using the instrumental...
What I do now is beatmatch my next track(lets call it X) to the record i've got playing (Y). I then toss X off the table, throw on my double of Y, eyeball the pitch adjustment so it's the same as the playing track, and then cut over to the instrumental on beat, after a chorus or something.
I then throw off my original of Y, replacing it with X. I throw the pitch to where I remembered it at when I beatmatched the first time, and mix in X.
I can't really think of another way to do this, but it seems like the pitch adjustments aren't going to be spot on with the shifting around as I switch records...
Is this how y'all do it?
