NOW THIS eased my mind of switching from controller to cdj at the club for my first show. all i wanted to know was to load tracks and simply navigate the system. this was so straight forward and easy. def alleviated hella stress for me

[@OneOfSixMusic]

Isn't this the Nexus? 2000's have no rekordbox button nor display the waveform? lol

[@bohdaicitta]

[@christianjackson]

I have another video on here about how to adjust the beatgrid on the CDJ and another video on how to use rekordbox (how to export and adjust beatgrids). Should be under recent uploads!

[@kurtb5512]

First time using cdjs. I’ve been using turntables and vinyl for years, time to expand. This video is very helpful

[@iSouljaking]

[@rolphmusic]

I Wish I would have seen this video at least this friday before I had played the warm up at a party, I'd never used a professional setup before

[@zattamusic]

Best tutorial i’ve ever seen- THANKS

[@roynesbitt1973]

Should use a CDJ2000 and not a Nexus. Could prove confusing for some

[@ZacharyAghaizu]

Its nice to see new djs excited about the new adventure in djing and the dj world but sometimes feels like all I see is the same old. I am so happy to see you have dedicated much of your life and career in educating your self as a dj producer planner production lighting. .... this is my plan minus the producer I wish you the best of success your new subscriber rocky Atlanta music dj

HOW REKORDBOX Workin on CDJ 2000 ?? , AND HOW I SHOW Bar of song? on cdj 2000

[@markymark3295]

Great information 👍 any videos on cdjs will be perfect 👌😎

[@hingsing1]

been djing for a few years now and had no idea you can hit the menu button to sort or press/hold to skip thru searching !!! (works on my xdj RX)

[@OfficiaLUCCA]

Maybe a video on how to set up your equipment out of the box or a really useful one would be how to record your mixes to a computer

[@gunjabeans]

Thanks for the tips!

[@yoashcohen2874]

Hi Chrisitian. Useful stuff! By choosing the playlist mode on the browser, the tracks will be shown exactly in the same order like in the rekordbox playlist? When I export the files to a usb drive, Rekordbox creats them in folders and it looks like it loses the order of the tracks in the playlist....

[@jaygarcia5748]

dope tutorial. just got 2 cdj 2000. ITS ON!!!!!

[@kanapeche3283]

Great video! Is it possible to view tracks showing their BPM and Key in the menu at the same time?

[@Djtonydraper]

Great tips... Great videos.. Keep em coming..

[@thewonderfulamazbals]

thank you so much for this!

[@ricflomusic]

Just what I needed, thank you!

[@pfuzz3349]

why tf would anyone give this a thumbs down?! whats wrong with folks? thank you for the helpful info!

[@sidechain1636]

Great tut, I always used cds but this is awesome thanks!

[@flair873]

Spend hours trying to find out how to sort by BPM, thank you!

[@shahin7757]

Helpful! Thank u🤍

[@DJCaspermusic_official]

thank you fr helping me out , love u

[@TacticsUnseen]

Rekord box has a collection feature on the computer program does the cdj's come with the option to find your linked tracks as well? or is this just a feature to make faster/better/easier mixes? Thanks for the video, very informative!

[@6wa6ne6]

Thanks man it was very help full !

[@djjusfed]

Excellent tips thanks bro happy NEWYEAR

[@kennethjordan1889]

Amazing video 🙏🏻❤️🥂

[@wooinkim6593]

You have a very charming voice. I like that because it makes me easy to understand. haha

[@emigalvantv]

Hi Christian! Great video! I have a question: How do yo do to see the BPM in your browsing window? In my case, I only see the track Title, but no BPM. In this video you have BPM right next to the title track. How do you do it?

[@emigalvantv]

+Emi Galván Can You also instead of BPM put your COMMENTS here? I use comment to write KEY with Mixed in KEY. Thanks you very much :)

[@KoenCuijp]

Did you ever find the answer to this? I'd like to know as well Edit: found it. If you have your USB in rekordbox, navigate to it under "devices" and then you can choose which column to show next to the title of the track.

[@oshradeiy]

man, you saved me!!

[@LauCool1982]

This tutorial really helped me, thanks a bunch!!! :-)

[@shantanukundlaskar1729]

loved it man!

[@prspktvmusic]

Is there a way to view rekordbox colours on the CDJ display? I've got a pretty hefty playlist, but sorted every track by colour grouping them

[@Djalexsinclar]

thanks bro

[@BEESU]

[@garypowell5429]

[@anjunabeachball2894]

[@daniyals9053]

[@chrisgiulianosound]

[@christianbozzetto]

Is there a way to display in the biggest part of the screen the waveform of the track you're playing, if you're browsing through your playlists?

[@jeremyd6744]

Thanks mate, I could not figure out how to bring up the sort feature lol

[@kerwinfernandes9583]

Great tips.. God Bless :)

[@MrArtamo]

When using Rekordbox you can put tags on any track (even custom tags), is it possible to sort tracks by these tags?

[@franereic2036]

Hello i have a problem with CDJ 2000. Just came back from service and...first , when I load song it starts immediatly to play..and second when i change playlist the old song from previous playlist remain. Do you know is that a technical issue or i can make some menu modifications. Thankss

[@djMixedFeelings]

What if i want to show key and bpm at the same time? Any tutorial on this

[@Baztation]

great

[@dfbvgfdas]

My CDJ2000's don't have the rekordbox or beat matching..

[@maquisainz2122]

How do you access a preset playlist? I flow through different BPMs and genres. I'm trying to ditch the Macbook and go USB but am now unsure these searches will be helpful for me. Loving your tutorials by the way!!!!

[@in_da_cut]

thx for the video man

[@anachronicmind1922]

Thank you for sharing. I have a question. I've seen the needle feature being used on a Pioneer video to jump to specific places on the track that's currently loaded while it's playing but I tried doing that on my cdj 2000 and all I get is a Needle Lock warning. Is there a way to remove

[@ByJaxtix]

does it annalyse all the songs form the usb and tells you the bpm and the key?? and thanks for the videos they were really useful

[@MrNoelNichols]

?

[@RG-gw2sp]

Is there a way to stay in browse mode after you selected a track?

[@benfrankie6936]

Thanks for the great tutorial! is there a way to sort the tracks in order of the tag list # I set up in rekordbox?

[@OhQuickly]

After 3 years I still don't have an answer to that question lol

[@Akoosoro]

rekordbox vdj crossfader not syncing with djm2000, any advise

[@jejeray4187]

Why my CDJ Nexus2000 dont show the waveform? the waveform in my cdj nexus 2000 not showedup..helpp

[@xcrpt]

Dang, I really wanted to learn about the CD Menu

[@EKLEKTIK06]

Hello, Thanks for your video How double or divise tempo for Drum and bass on cdj ? Bye 😉

[@Robin-rb6qu]

Can i listen a song before loading it ?

[@mvb1433]

I have Couple of questions, - I download songs from youtube converter it always shows the BPM after a few seconds ( 5-10 ) How can i save the bpm? so that i can see the BPM without waiting? - at 2:06 you see on the screen the track in the middle of the screen, By me is it empty?? Is it because i download from youtube converter?? ( i've Tested a Professional CD from Hardwell and got the same problem with the screen, it recognize the BPM and the track, i can see the track under the screen but not in the middle its empty only what appears there is the bars thing ZOOM and GRID ) -My previous CDJ, CDJ-1000mk1, when i select a track and play it, and press on cue it goes back to the begin of the track, But when do it by the CDJ-2000 NXS it goes to the previous track where i saved the cue ( very annoying ) to get the cue in begin of the track i have to play > Playbutton>PreviousTrackButton(it goes to begin of the track)>Cue. Then its saved at the begin of the track - What means needle lock and how can i shut it off?? - What does the master button do???

[@connecteddj8820]

don't use youtube to download your music usually you'll get poor quality tracks that sound shit over a house system in a club. google the title of the tracks followed by 320 kbp

[@MichaelPugz]

hey man! do you a video showing how to mix on a cdj?

[@JohnKrzz]

how do i load the track on the other cd player ?

[@Dragoran0071]

how can i sea the beat countdown for the cdj 2000 ?

[@vicomte2718]

THANK U !

[@xgabri120]

Why i dont see the zoomed wave on display?

[@jamiesonree2769]

Hey man not sure if your responding to this but can i get a waveform on my CDJ 2000 or only the CDJ 2000 Nexus has a wave form? I think the one in your video is the Nexus 2000...?

[@nickobrien2437]

will the CDJ automatically find the key and BPM?

[@ejlette]

If you use Rekordbox, yes

[@jonathanclyburn699]

is there a way to view this one the computer.

[@Giek_Music]

Is that a normal cdj 2000 or is a cdj 2000 nexus??

[@lukasky_dj]

Is there a preview option for a track before loading it to any deck. If not when you load it to any deck and search the track and decide you will not play it now, would it count it as play count 1?

[@hugoboccio7312]

thank you for the lesson :-)

[@jellekouters3887]

I have a question, at 2:06 you have to parts on the display. The screen with the zoomgrid tap and the other one. How do you comeback into the screen with the zoomgrid when you searched for some track in the menu?

[@ejlette]

Use the Back button.

[@etherealallure9173]

@christianjackson can i do this without uploading to reckordbox

[@VALLCOTV]

where on the cdj do you have the option to choose what player you load the track on to?

[@floydb9100]

Hi, I want to know .. if i make folders inside the USB disk, for example (Top 40, Electro House, Trap) .. will it reflect inside the pioneers as folders as well ? Or .. does it display all the songs without any ability to access them via folders ? Also, can you connect serato or traktor to the decks and play the music off your laptop ???

[@Dingalingis]

can you preview a track in your headphones while a track is/or not playing straight from the cdj without loading it?

[@notek_music]

Is it possible to adjust the angle of the screen on the cdj?

[@djsanthiago479]

I wanted to know if the new equipment like xdj, new nexus read normal so I saw videos that it only recognizes its pendrive if it is passed by the recordbox ???

[@djsatveer3751]

hey nice video.. but you can tell me how to convert a hard drive so i can play via cdj 2000?

[@berends3870]

I was spinning the other night and the CDJ2000 didn't have a phase meter, it didn't appear when I had selected a track, how do I make it appear when it isn't?

[@losonoluna]

Rekordbox how to fix the beat grid please! Thank you

[@maciejpawlowski8533]

Is it CD2000 or CDJ2000NXS? How to put wave grid of track again after selection?

[@abhishekyadav-gg3ym]

Can I sort my songs according to BPM in each folders or the BPM sprt is for the entire list of songs in all the folders? It would be a mess of genres if it shows for the entire songs in my rekordbox playlist
