      Hi, i just wonder how to disconnect ur usb stick from the cdj. There must be a button to make sure ur usb stick is safe and secure right? If so, how do u press it? Do u need to press and hold or just press one time untill the cdj tells it is safe to remove the usb?

    Hi Dexxter. I don’t usually comment much but you said in this video that using the sync button meant in effect you are not a Dj or are not DJing because you would not be beat matching. As a Dj for over 25 yrs, a Dj that learnt to mix on belt driven turntables before progressing into technics 1200 where having to beat match is essential I can honestly say that beat matching is NOT DJing and was simply a by product of DJing. I have warmed up for Pete Tong, Paul Oakenfold, Danny Rampling, etc etc. A club professional Dj for over 15 yrs. I know what I’m talking about. DJing is not about beat matching. If your new to DJing learn how to beat match but use the sync button, WHY ? Well the reason is this. DJing is about being creative about selecting the correct record to play. By utilising the sync button you release the part of your brain that would normally have to Police the timing aspect and allow your brain to concentrate on being the entertainer, being more creative, utilising 3/4 decks, looping, adding fx, creating builds and most importantly creating a vibe. Beat matching does none of this and IMO although an important aspect to learn is highly overrated and misunderstood by the new generation of DJ’s. Being able to beat match is important but why bother with it if the equipment you have can do it for you? I think it’s more of an Ego thing amongst DJ’s today and it’s a load of rubbish. Beat matching is not what being a good Dj is about.

      I was already looking if there's a comment like this and I absolutely agree, David. Beat matching does not make you a real DJ, and mixing without doesn't make you not a DJ. It's actually just an extra ultimately unnecessary step if it can be automated unless you really do something with the extra control that manual beat matching gives you. I started mixing with vinyl 18 years ago, used CD decks, and mixing with both Ableton Live and Traktor Pro with just controllers. Now since a year I went back to turntables with vinyl timecode, which I use for fun and to hone my skills. But about half the time I just mix in beat sync and can perform transitions and layering of tracks that are just impossible when you're focusing on the beat matching. Without the beat matching I can put all my brain power into the smoothest blending during transitions and adding subtle effects. Saying that only beat matching makes you a real DJ actually reveals that you're just trying to show off with it (it's not that difficult of a skill) and are actually probably not that experienced as a DJ. Just use all the tools the technology provides to make the best transitions possible, that's all that's important.

      @DJB74 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Dexxter Clark - a very diplomatic response. You are correct, everyone is entitled to their opinion. Oh and by the way, I think your videos are great, despite having been a Dj for along time I only recently bought the cdj2000 nx2 as I stopped Playing out about 10yrs ago and the last pioneer cdj’s I played on were the 1000’s so it’s quite an upgrade and your vids have been very helpful. Thank you , really enjoying playing again now, so much fun with the hot cues and quantise loops!

    • @NoneOfYourusinesss
      @NoneOfYourusinesss 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      IMHO, every DJ should be able to beatmatch manually. Its not even hard so for an experienced DJ is just a couple of seconds to beatmatch.

    Scenario: the two CDJs are connected with a “link” cable. The USB stick it’s connected in the left CDJ. Question: on the left CDJ I’ll select USB (as a source) and in the right CDJ I’ll have to select “LINK”, right ? (To be able to access the music from the usb stick with the right CDJ)

      I can't make sense of what you said. You say you're playing a festival which means a gig of a somewhat serious scale, and at the same time, you're a DJ who has never played on CDJ's? Does not add up. How did you get to festival level so to speak, without ever laying your hands on a CDJ? I don't buy it.

    Thank you very much for this tutorial. Lengthy but the best I saw.
    Anyway, unfortunately I have to play on a pair of these things in two week and I have few questions:
    - can you sort in the playlist for key, bpm, tag or just by name?
    - can you save loops with the cue points? So that for example cue1 has a 4bar loop, cue2 no loop and cue3 a 16bar loop?

      no.

    dear dexter clark , i took a walk through this one and also though your improved cdj course ,both very useful and very easy to follow and understand.
    i have just one question , when i connect my hp omen to the dj 900NXS2 via USB A or B, i just can play through slide 1, i followed your advice in the lesson and put 4 times post channel1 fader for 1,2
    and so to post channel 4 fader in the pioneer settings.but no changes , i can choose usb A or B on the 2,3 or 4 selector , but no signal there .
    i think you are the best source to ask if you can help here ,thank you very much for your time .

      But I don't know if the answer is in there.
      You have to look really closely to the input you select and the type (in the pioneer drivers)

    Nice tutorial!! Quick question from a traktor user. When someone analyse a track in rekordbox does the software automaticly sets que points or the user has to do this manualy like hot ques and memory points?

    • @DexxterClarkMusic
      @DexxterClarkMusic  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks.
      No you have to do that manually regretfully
      cue-points = memory points in Rekordbox

    • @DexxterClarkMusic
      @DexxterClarkMusic  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      uhhh. Well a while ago Mixed in Key didn't support it for Rekordbox. Don't know if they changed it in the mean time

      One last question. If i prepare all my music in an external hard disc 1ΤΒ (USB3) with rekordbox, can i connect my hard disc directly to a pioneers hardware (controller,XDJ/CDJ) and have all rekordbox settings,playlists,loops,ques & hot ques ready to roll?

      you have a max of 32GB. So I would take a thumbdrive for that.

    Can loops be saved ahead of time and called upon by hot cues?

    • @DexxterClarkMusic
      @DexxterClarkMusic  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      no you need to play the loop to record it.
      But you can indeed assign a hotcue to a loop!

    Great video mate - very informative. By chance, do you have a setting for your CDJ's that prevents the current track from rewinding to the previous track in your library when you are in vinyl mode? It's truly a problem...still love the vinyl feel in serato.

    • @DexxterClarkMusic

    1 van de betere uitlegvideo’s, erg beknopt! Doe zo verder! 1 vraagje, ik ben gewoon van te mixen op mijn pc & dan staan de liedjes die speel onder elkaar en heb ik een beter overzicht wanneer ik het 2de liedje zou moeten inspelen. Op de cdj’s staan ze niet onder elkaar hoe weet ik dit dan?

    • @DexxterClarkMusic

      de cdjs volgen de playlists die je maakt in rekordbox, daar zou geen verschil in mogen zitten

    This Pioneer Nexus 2 system is okay. I hate how pressing the hot cues makes the track play automatically and same with the auto loop function. There is no GATE mode on the CDJs unlike the Rekordbox Controllers, which is kind of stupid to not include that feature on such a high-priced system. I also get this annoying issue that some tracks automatically play when loaded and some tracks don't. Another problem is the quantize algorithm is very laggy, such as pressing hot cues and engaging slip-reverse, they will not react immediately until the next beat. Everything else is great including the mixer, just these lists of issues make this NXS2 setup untrustworthy.

      with an audio recorder.
      Reloop has those funny cassette tape shaped recording devices.
      Some mixers can do it if your plug in a USB stick.
      Some mixers have support to connect your phone via usb to record the audio.
