Sound familiar?
The FLX4 is a brilliant first controller. But nobody gives you a route from plugging it in to playing great DJ sets on it.
Rekordbox is open, your music is somewhere, streaming is maybe connected. But you're hours in and you still haven't played a track.
The beats line up, roughly. But your transitions still sound like two songs crashing into each other rather than one smooth blend.
Pads, FX, Smart Fader, Beat Jump. You know they do something. You've no idea what, or when you'd actually use them in a set.
Every tips video assumes something different. You've watched dozens and you're still not sure what to learn next, or whether you're doing it right.
That's the whole job of this course. Fifty lessons, in sequence, filmed on your exact controller - so you always know what you're learning next and can follow along exactly.
Your path
Four stages. Work through them in order and you'll go from never having touched a controller to playing sets you're proud of.
Stage 1 Software chosen, controller plugged in, your music and streaming loaded. You're making sound in one evening.
Stage 2 Hear the beat, count the bars, and bring two tracks together properly - by ear, not by hitting sync and hoping.
Stage 3 Loops, FX, hot cues and the performance pads, used at the right moment for a reason. This is where it starts sounding like real DJing.
Stage 4 Keymixing, stems, flow. Mix for an hour without it falling apart - at home, at a party, or wherever you take it.
Inside the course
Tap any module to see the lessons inside it.
Out of the box and making sound, with your own music and your streaming service both ready to go.
The skill everything else rests on. Hear the beat, count the bars, and land your first proper mix.
Every control on the mixer, what it's actually for, and how to use it so your transitions sound professional.
How to make any track fit your mix, and the secret to tightening your timing so it sounds right every time.
The FLX4's effects used how pros use them - which effect, when, and why. Including Smart CFX and Smart Fader.
Where the FLX4 stops being a "decks and mixer" and starts being an instrument you perform on.
The pro-level techniques. Mixes that sound musically right, plus instant acapellas and more for mashups on the fly.
Watch it all come together, then take it further.

Sneak peek
This isn't a folder of video files. It's our own training platform, built for DJ courses and nothing else.
Mark lessons complete as you go, bookmark the ones you'll want again, ask a question right underneath the video, and get notified the moment a tutor answers.
Your tutor
"As this is the world's most popular DJ controller, I felt it was important we had a course specially for it. But make no mistake, this is a DJing course. By the end of it, you'll know how to DJ not only on this controller but on anything."
How it works
Buy it once, keep it forever, on any browser, phone, tablet or laptop. Do it in a weekend or over six months - it's yours either way, and updates are included.
Every lesson has a question box that reaches a real tutor. Stuck on something at 11pm? Ask. This is the bit YouTube cannot do.
Our unique training portal lets you mark lessons complete, bookmark ones to revisit, and get notified when your questions are answered.
A private community of DJs worldwide, plus optional monthly live classroom sessions with our tutors. Both included.
Get started
Take the FLX4 course on its own, or add the three courses that take you the rest of the way. Both are yours to keep for life.
Beginner to pro. Everything you need to play great DJ sets on this popular DJ controller.
The FLX4 course gets you playing. These three take you the rest of the way - proper mixing skills, your software mastered, and your first mixes recorded.
Every Digital DJ Tips course comes with a cast-iron, no-questions, 12-month money-back guarantee. The rest give you 30 days (or none at all). We give you a full year to work through it and see whether it did what we said it would.
If it didn't, tell us and we'll refund you with a smile. Nobody else offers this, and after 16 years we've never needed to change it.
Before you buy
Some of it, eventually. YouTube is fine for fixing things. It's poor at taking you somewhere, because every video assumes something different and nobody tells you what to do next. This is 50 lessons in a specific order, with a tutor you can actually get help from. We've been online almost as long as YouTube has - we know exactly where the difference lies.
Absolutely. We teach on the DDJ-FLX4 because it's the controller most beginners use. But we're personally happy DJing on anything, and by the end of the course, you will be too. This is a real DJing course that just happens to be taught on the DDJ-FLX4. And remember, you can ask questions at every stage for extra help.
The important thing is when you're going to see progress, and the answer to that is almost immediately. Every lesson has something that you can do to move your DJing forward. Quickly, you'll be playing music. In just a few hours you'll be mixing it, and from then on you can build on your skills whenever you've got time. Most DJs feel they're no longer beginners in just a few weeks.
No. The free version does everything this course needs, and your FLX4 unlocks the features that matter. We show you the setup step by step, including linking a streaming service if you use one, and how to use advanced features like stems and keymixing. The whole course is taught on a free version of the software.
No. You may be able to speed through the first module, but from the second module onwards it goes well past beginner level - keymixing, stems, pad modes, controller-specific FX and advanced performance techniques. Plenty of DJs with years behind them find this training fills gaps they didn't even know they had.
Ask. Every lesson has a question box that goes to a real tutor, and you can join the StudentHub community and monthly live sessions for extra encouragement and support. You're not left alone with a video library. Our job isn't finished until you are.
Fifty lessons, a year to get the results, and real human support when you need it. Start now.
