[@MariaGonzalez-lp3lq]

Can you make a complete tutorial on serato pro please. Just subbed, you give great info! Thanks!

[@rickbattle5958]

Thanks that video help me out.

[@ParadigmShifta]

I just stop the track pick up the mic and scream 'Yo Ultra/Tomorrowland come with me on this one' and then press play on the next track. Just kidding. Fave effect is echo with small amount of high or low pass filter combined.

[@Iamab0ss2014]

ParadigmShifta lmaooooo so true

[@carlcouture1023]

*kills track* "I need y'all at about a 10 right now" *drops next track*

[@bangurowned]

I double chin laughed on this

[@akustiktrax5186]

You are my hero 🤣🤣 great comment.

[@Keepit-wl5ks]

Hey Phil, Just want to say thank you. just started Djing for fun "bedroom dj" lol and your videos have been super helpful! Thanks again!

[@Bionic9]

The echo out is my go to, especially after a certain phrase in a track. Appreciate your channel and content.#Salute

[@andrewanthony1086]

Thanks Phil after watching this video I have been using echo out for most of my mixes with different genre.

[@bassfixproductions6143]

Dude I use this a ton for bar gigs when jumping around music! It works perfectly no matter what you’re gonna jump to/from

[@DjRoNIN3official]

Been watching your stuff for a bit now and you're killing bruv! Keep it up!

[@chadnliz2k11]

Hold echo added with echo can get creative too, creating your own custom tale to any track. Or echo applied to a spin back on platter gets you into alot of track transitions. Great advice to new djs!

[@haqqing]

i use echo out the most and thank you for this video its so simple its insane :)

[@donnycollins1797]

Great video and super useful! Echo and reverb out are great ways to add dynamics to the performance and it provides a great time to talk to the audience.

[@spidertimi]

Thank you Phil!! I have always wondered how to echo without having to use the effects. I never ever thot of Autolooping it. You make it look so simple. Thank you. 💯👍

[@jetsetter9494]

Thanks you for these absolutely simplified videos.

[@ALWZSNNY]

Great work! Like always!!

[@MylesMcCaulskey]

Really Enjoyed this video Phil! Thanks for the detailed Tutorial! Subbed!

[@jaybee9476]

Dj Phil thank you for sharing this video brother .

[@Ella-May133]

Got myself some ddj 200 just 2 start me off a few days ago and your vids are helping alot thank you

[@bryanjackson5132]

I like the glass break fx. That works too. But thanks for your makeshift echo out. Definitely will be using that. Good stuff bro

[@marvinmalabanan1231]

I love using the Echo 1/2, Echo 1/4, Flange and Reverb. I use it mostly in house or deep house music. When a track is playing and is about to come to a long part of the track where there is no drum beats or kicks, I prepare the next songs part where it has just the beat or kick with the high and mid EQ slightly lower depending on the beat's loudness. I slowly bring it in, in a loop just before the start of the "no beats part" of the track that is playing, slowly increasing its volume. Then, I add Flange effects to the 1st song, then add Echo 1/2 to the drum beat track in the middle of the "no drum beat part", then change to Echo 1/4 before the the 1st song restore to its own beat and adding Reverb effects. Just before the beats on the 1st aong comes back, quickly turn down volume fader of track 2 while still pressing Echo 1/4, release Echo 1/4 on track 2, release flange effect of track 1, then release reverb effect of track 1. It's like a soft EDM effect on the music and it will keep everybody dancing, most especially when you come across tracks with long no beats part. Some people gets bored easily or finds it hard to dance without the beats. I hope this made sense. I am not a professional DJ. I only use a DDJ-400 and play just for close relatives and friends. I enjoy your contents...keep it up! Cheers and more power to your channel!👍 www.mixcloud.com/DJ_Nei_Nemo/

[@DJ-Smooth-Jay-Tee]

Thank you man!! Absolutely a great tutorial 💯 My favorite DJ effect is the Echo using the microphone 🎤 Dont know what I would do without it!!!!

[@darriusmiller4541]

I'm trying to get into djing and your vids be on point. Very hepfu man🙏🏿

[@allandenola5968]

Wow Thank You for a great tutorial it helped me especially the wet dry knob explanation

[@djjasonhooper9882]

Excellent tutorial! Thank you!

[@octavianr526]

Amazing crystal clear teaching! I learnt much of your lessons just by trial and error, before Djs started to share knowledge. Echo out is a simple and trustful way of transition between genres or tracks with different BPM! I just add it to skills with reluctance, because I believed is a dummy way out! :)) But your lesson confirmed it is a good thing! Note: On Traktor S4, autoloop doesn't give that similar round-sound of echo out, it is just looping brutally. My preferred effects on EDM are Chopping - good for transition between the same BPM-, Flanger and Echo! Thank you, Phil, you are awesome, funny, the video shows exactly what are you speaking about, big Hug!

[@djstallone3000]

That’s a cool alternative with the loop feature!

[@rsanchez7111]

Nice!! Thx for sharing mate.

[@Giovanni-mu4zs]

Wonderful video dude, thank you!

[@phinds1]

I have a Pioneer DJM-909 and it has a Ducking Echo effect meaning the echo out effect automagically starts when I bring the fader down on the outgoing track. Can’t live without it. No dial turning!! Plus you can effect only certain frequencies. Meaning if you don’t want the low frequencies to echo out( cuz it usually sounds a bit muddy if you do) you can cut them out. Amazing mixer!

[@user-fw1un2cw7v]

I like the echo effect done on your voice in this video. Very 😎

[@djharris2429]

Hey you explained it well thanks !

[@edwinriveramusic]

Amazing! Thank you.

[@gabrieluy]

I like using Flanger. I typically use it on the build up to the drop

[@partycity55]

Very good explanationof the wet- dry knob!

[@DJMichaelKhoury]

Phil you are great thank you

[@GoodxJ]

echo out is a major key!!! 🔑

[@arzumanian]

Thank you. Great video!

[@jeffclydecainong2444]

WOW that's awesome again, I think it's super Cool

[@chinno1234]

I love using echo out ....that's my favorite way to transition ...as a apprentice...home dj..😅😂👍

[@metalprojecttools7719]

Good dj technic..very helpfull..thanks

[@mrlah8120]

love to use echo out along with one or 2 others to give different effects.. echo out and phaser gives a cool sound

[@afsaba]

Great video!

[@chillrules]

wow that's amazing.

[@thestarvingdjs]

Awesome thanks Dude

[@HaiTran-tz7hm]

Thanks for your explain

[@djcastillo7057]

Great video 🔥🔥🔥 I'm exactly the 200th comments 😆😆

[@deeznutz4580]

REALLY HELPFUL

[@dmod686]

Thank you my man

[@peterskavaras9195]

very helpful thanks :)

[@bigman6069]

I think the echo out is the most fun loving fx for me, (I'll try that wolf gang pack from sersto) and I'm really willing to learn how to use it effectively and clean thanks for the tips I'm really gonna try it..thanks

[@djswivells3613]

DJ great content!

[@chromemusic4401]

U da man!!

[@milananjanadjmew8784]

Keep it up brother.

[@dvdcase56]

I mostly use the "Spiral" effect on the last beat. Just before the break. From there on you have to time to other track to play. No FX pack needed and free. Did it once from a house track to a happy hardcore track (much faster). People knew the incoming track and got a nice reaction from the crowd.

[@richmed2055]

spiral effect? where do you get that.. and for which controller/application.

[@zakarypilote7588]

Me too

[@aape6697]

I love the pan effect on rekordbox. At 1/16 time it can really emphasize a small portion of the song

[@WubbaLubbaDubDubs]

Great video. Personally i like the echo brake fade out, but this will be usefull💽🙏💜

[@melendez13]

Hi dj phil I learnt to blend your video

[@djx3n7ly85]

I love tremolo. Its not quite the same as quickly varying the volume between low or off/mute and high, bevause then i would just use the volume slider...i love tremolo, ill often use it in blending parts of the song im going to play with what im playing. Its also great during long held notes with vocals or just synth. Tremolo is more an oscillating effect using colume vs higher and lower levels

[@mattydatboi]

Pan delay gives a nice transition effect...put the knob at about 1 to 2 o' clock and when you are about to transition, turn on the effect and fade out.

[@zifikilekunene3301]

thats so cool thanks

[@vladdymusic9154]

I am using DDJ-400 with Recordbox: There are some ways to make echo effect with such a setup: 1) The easiest way is to select "Echo" for the FX, turn the FX knob to the 9 o'clock position (or higher), and cut the volume of the track you applied echo to. 2) Go to Pad FX settings and select "Echo'' , apply to one of your pad buttons. It works with literally just pushing that one button at the moment you want to cut the track (do not forget to hit play on track 2 and pause the track 1 before turning Echo off) If you have intros/outros, you could also beatmatch, but it is much much harder to make smooth transitions that way.. Bonus: You could also use backspin or vinyl brake to add more variety in your sets...

[@jasonwaldinger2190]

Do you set the "Echo" for the FX at 1 beat or less/more?

[@shashank2361]

Loop with bit of echo and a back spin. Works well.

[@attilanagy15]

Hows the 400 working for you

[@claysonyuji]

Thanks!!!

[@dewitheashley4556]

Good job💥💥😎😎

[@gayleflowers5717]

Thank you!!!!!!

[@djmagictunez6041]

Good stuff

[@Gpd217]

If you’re looking for a good effect for deep bass drops, I use just a little bit of LPF with the HPF rising as the song is about to drop.

[@THESHADOWMASTER9]

Looping seems to be the most useful tool for transitioning. Ive already seen two different transitions that use it and i'm confident there are more uses for it.

[@cruzc9901]

I agree but is looping considered an effect?

[@Mumbamumba]

I know you from your Ableton live course! :D

[@ryantafoya3906]

Thank you

[@cooldeejayhotice8652]

thanks i really will love to SAY AM GRATEFUL......

[@culesamericano9929]

The trick with loop saved me

[@markseymour8767]

You are a pro sir. Im fixed on beat matching...but really need to move on. While it's the defacto transition, for genre and big bpm shifts, you need something like this in the tool bag. My DDJ-SB3 has some cool transitions Inc. echo out built into the pads. Thanks Pioneer and thanks muchly to you Phil.

[@AnxiousCowboy]

mark seymour

[@natebriskey9031]

Even though I have watched so many of your videos, each and every video I feel disconnected xD NOT because of you, just because of the music choices lmao I just like edm progressive house or melodic dubstep xD

[@freedomismine4696]

I like to to spin out of control in the right momment then relesed it like chop off with echo then drop the downtempo track.

[@lifetakesflight]

On Denon you can use the wash out effect under the sweep effects section.

[@0180dantheman]

Phil can u do hardstyle or hardcore detorial i love all your vids thay help me out lots

[@TheLingWhisperer]

Echo fx in software like Serato or Rekordbox is beatmatched, which means if you haven't properly analyzed your tracks and aligned the beatgrid your echo fx is going to be off-beat in your mix. As for the 'echo out' effect, you can accomplish the same thing in other software with a simple echo combined with use of the high pass filter. If your filter is an all-kill filter it accomplishes the same thing if you turn up the filter while you turn up the echo.

[@fabx1708]

My favourite fx is the filter and reverb

[@jimlloyd1854]

Difficult to pick just one effect... Beat Grid, Echo, Reverb, Flanger... I use about half of the default VirtualDJ effects, depending on the song(s). And, then there is the Sampler... A good Bass Drop can help you transition.

[@pranitsaid.8170]

You can also teach how to transition with LOW PASS & HIGH PASS FILTER please ;)

[@paulmunyalojohn3495]

hi phils my favorite effect is flanger

[@AluzionTV]

Hey Phil great Videos! Can you tell me what your using to suspend your camera above your SX?

[@djpeteb6092]

Echo Out via the one beat Loop, don't like via Effects Button. Your tutorial made it very simple, I tried explaining this to someone and it took too much effort to explain.

[@BenSinghGSLL]

I think mine has to be reverb for when I'm throwing acapellas over the top of an instrumental so it sits into the track better!

[@djnandoo702]

I don't know if I fully agree with just using "echo out on 1/2". If I want to go from 128 or around it I use it with a "drop" fx so a hard bass fade out and drop something super popular depending on my crowd. As a professional mobile DJ for 8 years different tracks have different transitions. There are also dj tools (songs) that have transitions from a high bpm to a low bpm that help out a lot

[@kr46]

I think You can not beat Fade in and out at the right time, Echo out is a great one, When I play EDM I love to have a battle with que points because with stuff Like Excision you can not go wrong. Softer stuff I would say just follow the BPM. Thanks Phil have subscribed.

[@hassandjhaboogiespin4550]

hey Phil u are a Comedian🤦🏽‍♂️😂😂😂yeah many drunks stay screaming Regardless, Facts

[@kirbykracklemusic]

Another great video! What is that hip-hop song you were using? Love that hook.

[@donaldray2040]

The name of the song is, let me blow ya mind by Eve

[@kirbykracklemusic]

Donald Ray Thank you very much, such a dope hook!

[@segrixamsterdam452]

Nice

[@djjmoney773]

Is there a difference between echo out and clean echo out?

[@harshbeatz_]

Btw nice video

[@angelov9976]

my favourute effect is ofcourse echo

[@freedomismine4696]

The loop is good ..just best pick loop ...put master tempo on enter the slow track already with short loop but must be compatible and put the master tempo bpm match ... Its tricky ...but with the right tracks and the right loops ... it can be done nicely ... Just add some effects and cut down the loop to going down to the original slow track pitch lock . shorter put some sample for the chop off ...like sound effect ..zap .wind . Jet anything .. :)

[@miltontennesse6302]

DJ milton tee 👌

[@gassanovfuad]

For an old DJ like me We called “Chop Mix”

[@Djxamel]

The echo fx and flanger

[@jimmybustillojr3884]

Idol my favorite effects is mearge!

[@bhushyrhodes]
