Scratching worked well also. enjoyed watching but got a bit bored after a while but listened to it in the background.
Keep up the great work.
Glad you enjoyed it man and thank you for the feedback! For the for the drumming, thats really just how it is man. the kid is known as a prodigy and is one of the best in the country at his age group. he was definitely off for a few seconds in the middle, but imo it sounded great overall. I suggested editing the drums to match up exactly in those few seconds where his kick was off, but he really wanted to “keep it real”, he was really against the idea of doing any major audio editing :p
Thank you again for the feedback, I really appreciate it!

this.
check to see if there are any hookah lounges or such in your area tooParticipantI personally always tell them I don’t have the song and try to stay nice and smile. If they ask me to youtube it or whatever, I just act like its not possible on the set up that we have running :p

Have decent drink specials or cover charge. You just need to get a following for your night but this generally takes a few events to really take off. Get all your sexy lady friends to attend and the lads will follow.
this. keep in mind that you need an incentive for people to show up. this could mean cheap drinks or having a theme, etc. having photography at your events is also a solid way to build up a following. Post the pictures on facebook. When people tag themselves in your album, it gives your night a lot of exposure

When utilizing the key lock funtion, is it possible to turn key lock off, adjust the tempo of a song (and therefore the key), and then activate key lock so that the song gets locked in the alternate key and the bpm can be manipulated without changing the key?
Put another way, can I take a song that’s in C, adjust my tempo +6% to put it in D, then key lock it in D?
I only DJ occasionally on my friend’s equipment and use Serato Scratch Live and am not completely familiar with all of the software’s capabilities but when I’ve tried to do this, the key lock function always sets back to the original key.as far as i understand, when you key lock, you lock the track into its original key. however traktor (and probably other softwares too) has a function where you can directly change the key of a song without changing the tempo

Participanttruth be told you can almost always take your controller to the club, and you could just ask the dj before you to filter out or something.
BUT knowing how to beat match by ear is important for 2 reasons:
a) there are going to be times when other djs are going to want to back to back mix with you
b) it just improves your overall skill set. if you want to do things like cue point juggling, scratching, etc. you need to be able to tell if something is on beat or not
