DJS - How to Set Loops Manually on Club Gear!

Have you got a DJ club gig coming up and want to know how to set loops manually without performance pads - then you must watch this video. DJ tips and tricks explained simply!

[@djLZdub]

The thing that confuses me is the fact most DJs I know do a much better set on a controller with performance pads , having all preset cues loops …., at the end of the day it’s about the music yes but club gear is expensive yet more basic and has restrictions , most guys don’t have access to it before going to a club , if I owned a club I’d say use what ever kit you want on the night long as the crowed is happy start to finish

Literally the coolest, most laid back djay. You make it easy to digest

[@emiiilsgab]

Or you can just hold loop in button for a sec and it will create 4 beat loop. And would suggest to have quantize ON, so you don't have to struggle with matching loop start/ending to the bar. ))

[@ClubReadyDJSchool]

Holding in button for a second only works on some gear not others, and some even have a button that sets off a 4 beat leap. I was trying to stick with methods that relate to most gear - old and new so when people turn up to play at clubs they don't get stuck. You're right though I should mention quantise. Although I enjoy the shorts, getting in all the content in under a minute is tricky. Originally I also talked about halving beats and doubling beats in this video but had to edit it out as it took the video over a minute - more to come though in this series :) Thanks for keeping me on the ball ;)

This is exactly what I was looking for!!

Diude luv you content, straight to the point, class.

[@hamish4609]

My first time on CDJs coming from my DDJ1000, i found the looping hard especially getting out of them, thanks for the video

[@chokeyoursoul]

Try using automated loops

[@snowagain]

I have also ddj1000 but the only difference is the 4beat loop button

[@Ol__lOo]

Thank you! It’s just exactly what I needeed!

[@The_cdgp]

The loop end button still lights up because there's a loop saved behind it. You can reeloop it if you press it and then you'll jump back to the lasted loop you've set ✌🏽✌🏽

[@ClubReadyDJSchool]

well said!

[@willievaughn6474]

Good looking out Wow! Awesome

[@robertpena6602]

I'm new to this kind of looping buttons, can I ask for a video on the ins and outs (pun intended) on how to master using them?

[@ClubReadyDJSchool]

More videos coming daily in my looping series!

[@mankeeey9860]

Why is it that when I press the exit button the loop jumps back to the beginning? This happens on a CDJ 2000 NXS.

[@freyafoxmusic]

Do all CDJs read the auto loops you set in rekordbox

[@rivumrejex2864]

Do you know how to remove a loop on the denon mcx8000?..

[@Dinglezz]

Umm... This loop feature has been around since the CDJ-500.

[@renaldoNYC]

Do it with music 🎶

[@hristian33]

I do wonder though why when you loop out the zone stays highlighted. The first time I played on cdj's that confused me a lot.

[@MyJoacoo]

because of the reloop button.

[@hindenburgerhelper14]

if a club has decks that don't have performance pads i'm not playing there

[@YouTubeSAiF77]

Kahana Kay chahte Ho 😅😅

[@rixjo2010]

R u on tiktok?

[@ClubReadyDJSchool]

No, but happy to repurpose onto that platform - perhaps it's time to launch a page..

[@troyuk8017]

was this really worth a video ??

[@cd78]

Buy Denon sc6000

[@ClubReadyDJSchool]

The Denon SC6000 would be better than my outdated gear, but I do like the new CDJ 3000's!!! Sorry, Pioneer boy at heart :/ but in saying that it's good we are blessed with choice!

[@d_m1nhh]

Lol if some club use Denon gear, chance that no one gonna play on that deck until they got Pioneer deck

[@cd78]

@@d_m1nhh Can you translate that to English please?
