DJ Dummy @ Vital with TRAKTOR SCRATCH & KONTROL S4 | Native Instruments

When we heard that Common's DJ, the legendary DJ Dummy, was going to do a rare in-store appearance with the S4 and turntable control, we rushed a couple of cameras down to catch the master at work.
We only managed to capture sound from our live camera -
but we loved his performance so much that we had to share it with you.
Dummy first quick mixes with the S4's on board controls using cue points then mixes things up with vinyl beat-juggling. Learn a lot from the Dummy.

[@FlowhopTV]

Nice track!

[@HeadsetHistorian]

@Inkv7 Generally they are tapping the cue button a few times before the play button to get themselves in time and so they press play bang on time. In this case though it's more complicated and related to hot cues within the software but for the standard button tapping you see generally, it's basically just so they press play in time. ;) Think of a drummer clicking sticks to start a band, sometime similar.

[@xxkiingcrustxx]

your gunna learn a lot

[@monkse14]

1:20 to the end makes me wanna cry...

[@DJFATFINGAZNYC]

OH WOW!!!!!!!

[@deepakkumar99933]
