Dj Tutorial, A trick to throw in during the mix.

www.djtutor.com/mixing1
This is a subtle way of changing the best in the mix, all you do is start the secont song/toon on the off beat. toon to the right is Inaya Day " shout it out"

[@DonovanAenslaed]

Even if it appears to be a "basic trick" or "for beginners", things like this will get you closer to really do something with the music besides playing a track after another. There are other ways to do this, like putting in a loop the piece you want to bring over your master track and using the crossfader (properly assigned) to hear the loop on the mix. Respect to the skins man, for doing what most DJs don't, which is sharing knowledge.

[@Marley123451]

dude I thought that hat was your hair at first

[@MixtapeMessiah92]

"practice n enjoy.. mmmhhh" :D

[@DubTopDropper]

ellaskins deserves an award for helping so many young dj's get started .

[@rizlagold]

hy i'm a dj for 15 years. your tutorials are the best on the net

[@Animaduniversum]

You did the world a favour with your tutorials. Interesting, well explained and always a joy to watch.

[@YusufDiaab]

[@anubis520]

[@Phyco_Smash]

Thank you. Every video is a great help

[@DjCKbeirut]

Please can you do a tutorial on all the features of the cdj 200 ? I asked you because i think your the best and explain very well ! help me because i'm about to get ones!

[@MAGICDJ5]

YOU ARE THE MAN!!!!! FANS FROM MEXICO!!!!!

[@123villanueva123]

Thanks man! enjoy watching you!

[@1227bond]

thank you for sharing your knowledge in mixing that was awesome buddy.. great!!! more power to you

[@duxsquad6094]

Thank you for actually explaining what your doing.

[@JamesDeal1982]

As a new DJ you have become my guru. Thanks for all the time you took out of your own schedule to help us out! My Numarks only have pitch shift, no tempo change and it's such a pain, I just can't get the two tracks to STAY in sync... I can get about 4 seconds worth of a sync before one starts to slip away from the other. How can I correct this with just a pitch shift? I'm using Trap and Dubstep beats...

[@benward3298]

Man you have helped me learn so much, i owe you a pint!

[@JensMEichkorn]

keep on doing!! your tutorials helped a lot! best regards from germany!! :-)

[@SENSATIONmusic]

"Bum Chic" xD

[@triacam]

Love it!!! I'm going to practice now

[@Real-Imil]

ok, thx! I'll try it sometime soon.

[@Aloenam]

I agree with you "AisyTheDog". Very easy to understand & very helpful ellaskins, thank you. I have also noticed in many of your vid's you play very groovy music during your demonstrations. Do you have a video on how to focus on the lesson at hand as appose to "Getting down" or "Dancing" during the lesson? Good stuff man, keep it up.

[@ebmdude]

could you do a review of a a numark axis 9 cd player please cos i was thinking of buying one and i really trust your reviews

[@ChrisNeree]

Wow I've been doing that. Some of this stuff, kinda just grows on you.

[@namchild8277]

wicked little drop at 2:27. I do the same trick but on the half beat an keep bringing it in and out to go double time

[@micazanele]

ahh really like this technique, thanks!

[@R83TV]

and? this is a tutorial or a help for people to either start DJ'ing or try to think of their DJ work in different ways! J stated in other videoes that he doesn't see himself as a super star DJ but he knows what he is doing that is why he can tell us so we know what to do..... it's a gift to be able to teach and he is using that gift on us so we can enjoy something he loves as well

[@nagendernaik1481]

when you do that using cue on cdj 200.Will the 2 songs bpm remain same?

[@QBziZ]

@Cheesebtrz correct. if i have to guess, ellaskins is working in the business itself ( (rental)shop, distribution, ... ) and has access to a wide array of material.

[@tomkinguk]

Good trick that. I'm sure I've heard it done before, but never occured to me what with using vinyl not CDs.

[@AjinGaming]

I see you have tried many dj-sets! :D Witch of the pioneer cd-players do you like the most? :)

[@pbpwn]

Thanks for the trick!

[@SpeedertNL]

I laughed at the "Hmmm" at the end xD Nice vid, keep it up!

[@drewoi89]

you have like a million videos, and your pretty damn good at djing.. so how the hell are you not like a world famous DJ?

[@s4njosesh4rk]

Mad props for this guy right here..!! Hes awsome he explains everything clear as water and i also like the examples that you show... P.S: you made like 20 videos and in those videos you have 20 different set ups...xD hahaha u go

[@misterspitfire6564]

Great info as usual.

[@Real-Imil]

I've also seen dj's who do this with the crossfader, like pull it to the other side for just 1 beat or so. Is the cue better 4 this?

[@dominusdominomusic]

your hats are unreal

[@Dandthings]

you have the best hats.

[@vandyk13]

wtf man he's so good, sometimes u can barely tell the difference between his tracks,his mixing is spot on, and when was the last time u tried djing while operating a camera dumb ass, hes not only doing that but hes also talking to the camera while djing, imo that's pretty impressive. I would love to see this guy live, he embodies the true DJ, and in response to him traveling the world djing, did you ever stop to think that he doesn't want to as he probably has a wife and kids and is not able to.

[@k750iL]

Excellent bro keep teaching post regularly!!!

[@friendzypro]

loving the hat, seriously.

[@vanuatu12]

u r the man! thx

[@teuneun1919]

can you do a totural for the numark mixdeck too?

[@JB04]

Tracks are: Inaya Day meets Louis Benedetti - Shout It Out (Vocal Mix) Rocking Music - Martin Solveig

[@kidterse8997]

Can I ask what kind of setup you have, and if you recommend anything else, especially for beginners?

[@NitroXBS]

@TheRealDJLukie The loop button is your friend.. on the current track that is playing, lock a 8 beat loop with no lyrics. then on the Drake track set a 2 beat Loop and bring the Drake track in.. then after a 16 beat run release the 2 beat Loop and you are in the mix.. its a simple trick to do.. you could also throw a few filters in on the lyrics & also increase & decrease the Loop beat to suit.. hope that helps.. Any other questions just ask.

[@DJPHATTNESS]

very nice!!!!

[@DJSHADDY2K7]

hi i been watch you on you tube for some time now but i have seen you do a vido on a dn s3500 cd player can you tell me if you did one or about to do one.

[@pamelahotti]

hi i want to buy some turntables. I am between denon dns 1200 and pioneer cdj 200 wich one would you recomend me

[@DavidBlackDisalvo]

nice shirt. oddly enough i did a presentation about cat and m-audio this morning for my web design class

[@Cheesebtrz]

I have seen many of your vids. but Im wondering HOW MANY different cdj's, mixers and vinyl players do you have ? :D

[@ellaskins]

to 1m1l, this is an easier way of doing it because if you just press the cue and keep your finger on the cue as soon as you take your finger off the song will go back to the beginning , so with in a second you can repeat the process. j

[@matthewwv1]

every beginning of his videos, he sais arite folks, jon here

[@alexfair8589]

@SuperMildewMan so why did you click it? :P curious?

[@RamtinK]

[@pablix809]

[@slyfoxterror8]

[@awshot]

[@JookieJenkins]

[@gnazkull]

[@NUNHEAD72]

[@jacobblack8992]

@james deal,, baby the platter my man, every four seconds give the slow one a nudge forward or vice versa

[@Tubbergen]

I was wondering, does he turn the bass down oft he track he brings in? Thanks in advance.

[@G10R6Y0]

Man the best...!!!!

[@cbb2296]

@Cheesebtrz and how many hats he has...

[@gtaivmodding]

They will beat match the song they want to mix in whith their headphones. Like on the DJM-900 nexus mixer you have a white cue button above each channel. If you press that button you will hear that channel trough your headphones, that way you can beatmatch it and turn the master output on whenever you like to.

[@skagboi]

Aaaiigghhtt, I feel u...keep um Coming m8.

[@EADiogo]

@incxfatals08 you can get a timecoded set or something. about 130 euros for a soundcard (maya 44 or u-mix 44) and 2 timecoded vinyls. then you can use any mp3 songs :)

[@shamanisgreat]

The business standard...if you have the money to buy them... But CDJ 200 are very accurate and good for beginner!

[@freddypixtunn]

ellaskins for president!

[@giostefaneli]

practice & enjoy. The Best

[@BedroomDeejayin]

@TheRealDJLukie that song is nothing but drum beat and vocals so it could probably be mixed very well with another hip hop instrumental.

[@sumthingmessy]

is that a tattoo on your left palm?

[@thedancemassacre]

ed banger ...i do agree..

[@oskartheman]

nice hat.

[@eebruce]

The sidebar is clearer ... mixing the on beat from one track onto the off beat of the other. "a su'l li'l trick"
