    putting the sample in at the end is done just how you explained it. looping the entire verse of the acapella once. then quickly turning off the loop once it has gone over once. after thats done I manually looped (what is close to a 1/16) and used positive pitch bend to give it a riser effect. right before the drop I kill the rise with a 1/1 breaker effect.

    The one dominent reason i would like to stay in the serato software is because of their DVS. I honestly wish they had a “pro” version of Serato Itch (I would pay any amount), as I feel they would make a DJ controller software product that compares with traktor. but as they say, a real DJ can mix on everything and anything

    unfortunately i got serato itch with the numark ns6. I love the controller, but the software lacks effects such as the echo freeze, which i keep hearing is a fail safe alternative to beatmatch mixing. Ive worked my way around it using a delay/LPF combo but it doesnt sound nearly as smooth. If serato itch doesnt step their game up with little things like this soon soon, ill consider making the big switch over to traktor before i get too deep.

    I got an Ns6 with serato itch. Although i love the controller I feel the effects are quite limited compared to what traktor offers. There is no echo freeze, but I use alot of delay/filter combos when I dont beatmatch. If Serato itch doesnt step their game up soon, I will consider switching over to the numark 4trak, which has the same layout as the ns6, but with the traktor software.

    lol your right. they really dont care about the beatmatching. but the other topic of my original post was talking about requests that just make no sence. for example…your in the first 30 minutes of a 4 hour set top 40 set and someone comes up and asks for the hottest upcoming song on the charts. i will always wait till the peak of the night to drop it, but it could be up to 3 hours later. how do you tell them to STFU when they keep coming back to the booth lol

    I typically do a 3-4 hour solo DJ set as well. For the first hour or so, I usually dont quick mix songs and at least get at least 2/3 the way through them before transitioning. This way I will never fear of playing my best music early in the night, and can save it for when the venue is full.

    If your the only DJ playing that night and your starting early, theres no need to play a banger right off the bat. Typically the venue wont be crowded at the very beginning and you want to save all your best current songs for the peak of your set. But then again, it all depends on your crowd, as well as the venue itself. Make sure to save the perfect last song, as this will be the tune people remember the night for, if they stay until the end.

    although there is a separate section to post your mixes, i don’t mind the free publicity :D. I do a monthly Prog/electro house podcast, that features the best tunes released in the month for those genres.(pacha sessions) I recently made a hip-hop/R&B/Dance mix featuring all the newest commercial club/dance music that was a semi-big hit online. As i feel most people post EDM on this blog ill post my hip-hop mix below. hope you enjoy 😀

    Anyone have a twitter account for their DJ name?! I feel that facebook is “fading out”, so I decided to make a twitter page for DJing first. I also feel its a better way to build a following, as well as follow/communicate with your favorite DJs. I would love to follow your twitter, as well as like everyones facebook page. @official2shae and the link below is me 😀
