Awesome quick start guide, and very simply explained. 👏 I kinda knew the thing with the framematching before you explained it, but I didn’t know it was called like this. Since I started listening to electronic in my early teenage years, I noticed this 1/2/3/4 pattern from the tracks, probably even earlier. Those Technics turntables are freakin’ expensive, by the way, but they’re well worth it if you’re an audiophile and an electronic music enthusiast who respects himself. Great job and thank you! 🙏

Elegant and very practical video. Congratulations

[@fran_tasie]

[@brawk8780]

Thank you for kind words!

[@irinadumitru9088]

Thanks for explaining the basics!I did not get the 2 ND part of it!It s a more clearer to me at this point!I learnt on cdj a long time ago...and thought that ppl will not consider vynils at these time but I see most of real djs appreciate them!It s probably the best to start mixing on vynils!

Best vid on KZbin in regards to mixing house

[@brawk8780]

Thank you

[@Hardbody94]

@@brawk8780 would appreciate any tips you can give me on mixing house on vinyl. I got two technics (1210 mk2 and 1200 mk5). I have a pretty strong selection of house music as I’m an avid collector. Having trouble locking down the mixes.

[@brawk8780]

Take your time and keep practising. Start with some basic house vinyl and just keep mixing those tracks. It will click eventually. Don’t give up 👍🏻

[@cameronleehorace]

I do all of this but still I mess it up and can't even do it and it sounds like a crash of beats.

[@barrywatts8501]

If the beat Moves out of sink to far start again straight away. Just pitch try again. Match with record hand then pitch adjustment so on intill fine tune

[@fabianavalos1386]

Quite frankly, it can’t be taught. You need the desire and passion to learn.

[@lindsaymaylor6769]

And good pattern recognition

[@josepinero3731]

Hey man! I just got a pair of audio technica and a omnitronic rotary but I have never really mixed with a rotary😅 any tips on that? Ik it’s basically the same but I have a problem quite understanding it. Really good video 🫶🏽

[@Lyon_Jolie]

Seem easy but tough for the beginner ...how we can know the next song is more or less bmp... and pitching for matching is tough

[@jtz7285]

Start with house because it’s four to the floor it’s easy to tell the bpm quickly and they’re always in similar ranges. You’ll learn it quick 👌🏻

[@ostfoxmusic]

really nice vid mate - cheers

[@brawk8780]

Thank you

[@barrywatts8501]

Concentrate only on new record beat. Pick a sound that stands out from other record aswell

[@anonymousanonymous5327]

i have mk5 g, how do you find the pitch on them? accuracy? I can cue mine up perfect but come to send off there can be a quick change either faster or slower compared to how I had it cued, wonder if you had any similar experience

[@brawk8780]

I find the pitch ok on mine and cues seem to be ok when mixing but some times they can go out of time but only slightly. When I first got them it took a while for the pitch slider to loosen up.

[@jonscott-ux6cd]

Cool

[@Unknown_Artist2.7182]

I thought you were a Norwich boy 😊

[@OgDj2024]

Beat matching and phrase matching looks like it’s exactly the same… 🤔 Or, did I miss something?

[@itsmorphed6416]

Similar . You can beat match mid phrase and it will sound bad . Like imagine abruptly cutting a singer off mid sentence or bring another one in that clashes.

[@MirkoJJMascia]

M5g! ❤

[@SebaStian-py8wn]

When both records have the same bpm.. why do i have to adjust the speed?? Pls answer me this question

[@necrocreac]

u dont have to adjust speed if they are at the same bpm, u just have to beatmatch (align the beats) but u can also beatmatch via pitch riding (look it up)

[@SebaStian-py8wn]

One part i dont understand. You said both reckrds have the same speed aka bpm, why do you have to adjust the speed when both records have the same speed?

[@boomboomsoundman]

The tempo of the music goes up and down as the track progresses also the driver likes to slow itself down which makes it really fidgety

[@boomboomsoundman]

The tempo goes up and down as the track progresses and the drive thing for the vinyl slows down over time which makes it fidgety

[@littlebarrytv]

Big video do you still mix mate

[@brawk8780]

Thank you , yes still mix but not as much as I should!

[@littlebarrytv]
