I just got my DJ Controller and I have been searching videos for around 4 hours but I haven't learned anything compared to what I have learned in this one video!! Thank you so much! Now I have to look at all your other videos :)
Awwww....thank you Idi for the kind words. I am truly grateful for your honest feedback and I hope my tutorials would keep being useful for upcoming DJs out there. Cheers mate, 👉 www.djblinkblink.com/ultimate-mix-album
Much respect to you. I’ve been djing for over 20 years but have always shyed away from using Serato. Traktor is my go to program followed by Dj pro Algoriddim then VirtualDJ. During this Covid lockdown I’ve been trying to learn Serato but found the beat grids too fast for me to see my cue points clearly even on my 17inch MacBook Pro. Thanks for inspiring me by answering the comment on how to slow down the grid. It has made a world of difference. God bless u brother 👍
Much blessings and respect to you too brotherly. I'm glad you found my tutorial very helpful. In all honesty I was lucky the first software I ever used was Serato, if not I would not even attempt to use it cos it can be very daunting sometimes with the layout 😂. With the experience and knowledge you have under your belt as a DJ, you would definitely enjoy using serato DJ as you keep on it. Much love bro and keep yourself safe bro 🙏🏾 🙌🏿. One love, DJ Blink-Blink

Hi Dylan, Thanks for your feedback about the tutorial and camera editing. I really appreciate it. The DDJ S1 is a good controller and as you said 5 hot cues is not enough.

You are welcome Chris. Thanks a lot for your feedback. Now to answer your question, I used the loops so I can be in control of a "specific part" of the track. Let me break this down: If you want to mix 2 songs, you don't want them to "clash". One of the ways to ensure this does not happen is to"loop a part of the track" by using 4 beats, 2 beats, 8 beats or even 16 beats. This would make it easy for you to monitor both songs as they are playing together and then when you are ready, you can turn the outgoing song down and then increase the volume of the incoming song.

Hello boss, I watched ur tutorial n was in love with ur explanation it was straightforward n clear kudos sir. I would like to ask some certain questions I want to knw if the MacBook Air is strong enough for djing and what is ur rating on the pioneer ddj 1000 rekordbox I would be glad if u can answer my questions
Hello Wale, thanks for your feedback mate. To answer your question, a MacBook Air is strong enough for DJing (I use a MacBook air).

Now for the second part of your question, the Pioneer DDJ 1000 is a MACHINE!!!. I have a high rating of it cos of the size of the jog wheels and the display screen inside the jog wheels itself.

Question bro i wanted to mix a song i had made and i had heard a couple producers use this to get the mix good between the beat and vocals is there a better way to do this or do you have any tutorials videos like this
Hello mate, If you control your recording levels and keep it in the "greens" you would also get a good blend. This is known as gain control and you can my tutorial about this here th-cam.com/video/rSvGIOPrrnE/w-d-xo.html You can also "mix in key" also known as Camelot and you can watch my tutorial about this here th-cam.com/video/AxkIQi81JP0/w-d-xo.html Cheers, DJ Blink-Blink

I have heard experienced professional dis mix vocals with vocals and pull it off and fit the vocals together however this is a lot harder approach and its easier to do what the video says and keep vocals away from each other and just mix on the non vocal part on at least one deck or both decks.
In all honesty, mixing vocals with vocals is "word play" and won't go down well in wedding or corporate events as you know 😅 However in a club environment or private event, you would be a star and would definitely be hailed as a king!! So will I "word play" if I get the chance? Naaaaaaaa Now you ask why....well it's too much headache and stress mate 😅😂 Cheers, DJ Blink-Blink
@@DjBlinkBlink definitely agree I've heard people like Dave Clarke, junior Vasquez and Richie Hawtin do it expertly and it sounded great but these are experienced world class djs do I think you average club DJ could pull this off, absolutely not
Nice one mate. I'm glad you found this tutorial useful. You can watch more via my playlist below: DJ Tutorials & Equipment Reviews: th-cam.com/play/PLEayDS13Dep7VcnLMVqOav4L0UUUGbZBi.html
Hello Des, well not really. It's just a preference for me because the chorus is a known part of the song. Remember when you are transitioning between tracks, you are aiming to do it "seamlessly" and a good way to get this perfectly is to aim to transit at a section of the song that would "hide" any minor errors. Have a listen to my Ultimate Mix on my website (link below) and you would be able to listen to how I do this www.djblinkblink.com/ultimate-mix-album
Best option is to register with music/record pools like BPM supreme, beatsource, digital DJ pool, tidal etc. They do collect a monthly fee but it's worth the access you get to a massive library
Hello Farid, to learn to be a DJ you would need to practice a lot. Spend at least an hour everyday on your DJ controller and sharpen your skills. Take a look at my DJ tutorial playlist below (there are 10 videos focused on learning how to better in DJ'ing) th-cam.com/play/PLEayDS13Dep7VcnLMVqOav4L0UUUGbZBi.html Cheers, DJ Blink-Blink
Yes it does cos hot cues are the part of the song you feel or know can blend in when you are mixing, so yes setting the hot cue works for every genre of music. Cheers, DJ Blink-Blink 𝑴𝒀 𝑫𝑱 𝑴𝑰𝑿𝑬𝑺: www.djblinkblink.com/music-downloads 𝑴𝒀 𝑰𝑵𝑺𝑻𝑨𝑮𝑹𝑨𝑴 𝑷𝑨𝑮𝑬: instagram.com/djblinkblink/
Mr Blink-Blink good day I am a new DJ trying to come up, please I want to know where I can get my song for mixing because my previous mixing in my TH-cam channel has been labelled as copyright and I need song to grow my DJ SELF and y my TH-cam channel
Hello Sir....I see u used the tempo option to match the BPM. I'm new to the DJ field, can u tell what the difference is between doing it that way and hitting sync on the controller? Thank you!
Hello Gary aka "Gary the king", Firstly welcome to the DJ world. You would love it and it would open the gateway to loads of fun for you. So to answer your question, there is no difference between using the SYNC button and tempo option. You just have to make sure your beatgrids are properly set when using SYNC which would allow the 'sync system' to read your tracks easily when calculating the BPM. You can watch this video I did that discusses sync th-cam.com/video/VwRpi7SRXok/w-d-xo.html and you can watch this video to learn how to edit your beatgrids th-cam.com/video/VFE-g4g9Wqk/w-d-xo.html Feel free to follow my page on Instagram 'djblinkblink' if you want to see some more videos of my events and live sessions. Cheers mate, DJ Blink-Blink
Hey mate, if you are using Serato DJ, you can slow down the speed of your beatgrids on your screen by pressing the + or - keys on your keyboard. This basically zooms in or zooms out your display and makes it look slower. Cheers, DJ Blink-Blink
Congratulations Anthony. Learning to use anything new is always fun and I'm sure you would enjoy doing this every step of the way. Take a look at my other tutorials on my TH-cam channel and feel free to buzz me if you do have any questions.

Depends on what you are after when it comes to DJ'ing. Do you want a software that will suggest tracks to you when mixing or not and some other factors? Also for the UK, beginners have loads of options so you can't really pin a specific software for them.
@@DjBlinkBlink thnks 4 reply ..me being a starter ...if next track suggestion is available..tats great..and also need more fx...for covering up lack of dj skills .lol

To access the beat grids feature on Serato scratch live, you need to download Ableton and then go into the Setup screen on your Serato scratch live, click Plugins, and make sure Bridge is 'enabled'. Cheers, DJ Blink-Blink
Beatgrids are series of markers that point to the location of beats within the track. They are used for advanced mixing functions such as sync, precise effects synchronization, looping and accurate BPM representation. Cheers, DJ Blink-Blink MY FREE DJ MIXES: www.djblinkblink.com/music-downloads MY INSTAGRAM PAGE: instagram.com/djblinkblink/
Hello mate, if this is happening it means your best grid is not set properly (most likely). Watch this video tutorial I made that explains how you can set your beat grid th-cam.com/video/VFE-g4g9Wqk/w-d-xo.html Cheers, DJ Blink-Blink
@@DjBlinkBlink yes, but when i increase tempo with tempo-father using my controller, this stops at 8% but in you video for example i see that tempo reaches also 50%

Hi Brian, Your hot cues are saved permanently for ever song until you delete the hot cues. This means you don't need to set them up every time you play 😎
what mixer would u chose to use with serato dj and 2 turntables ?or should I just get rane sl2 or SL3 ? scratch live dose not have the beat bar to count . @@DjBlinkBlink
Hi Brian, If I would go for either, I would buy the Rane SL3 cos of the extra features. Also remember Serato DJ and Serato scratch live would work with both the SL3 and SL2 so you can easily swap over to Serato DJ if you need to use the beat grids or just install Ableton on Serato scratch live

I use Serato DJ Pro. Please be aware, all Serato DJ licenses and Serato DJ enabled controllers were carried over to Serato DJ Pro (Serato DJ Intro and Serato DJ packages were combined to become Serato DJ Pro). So, in as much as you have a full license for Serato DJ as of the end of 2018, you would have been moved over. Cheers, DJ Blink-Blink

Now to answer your question, I used the loops so I can be in control of a "specific part" of the track.
Let me break this down:
If you want to mix 2 songs, you don't want them to "clash". One of the ways to ensure this does not happen is to"loop a part of the track" by using 4 beats, 2 beats, 8 beats or even 16 beats.
This would make it easy for you to monitor both songs as they are playing together and then when you are ready, you can turn the outgoing song down and then increase the volume of the incoming song.

Hello Wale, thanks for your feedback mate.
To answer your question, a MacBook Air is strong enough for DJing (I use a MacBook air). You just have to make sure you have about 8gb of Ram (it usually comes with 4gb of Ram but I upgraded mine to 8gb). That memory would be enough to handle anything you need to use on it.
Now for the second part of your question, the Pioneer DDJ 1000 is a MACHINE!!!. I have a high rating of it cos of the size of the jog wheels and the display screen inside the jog wheels itself. You cannot go wrong if you buy this controller mate.
Good luck,
DJ Blink-Blink
Thanks so much I appreciate boss
@@DjBlinkBlink I am just humbled brother...your honesty and openness coiled to your profession encourages people like me to aim higher. Thanks for your mature leadership. much love from South Sudan.
This is so good!
Thank you Antonio for your kind feedback 🙏🏿

Question bro i wanted to mix a song i had made and i had heard a couple producers use this to get the mix good between the beat and vocals is there a better way to do this or do you have any tutorials videos like this
Hello mate,
If you control your recording levels and keep it in the "greens" you would also get a good blend. This is known as gain control and you can my tutorial about this here th-cam.com/video/rSvGIOPrrnE/w-d-xo.html
You can also "mix in key" also known as Camelot and you can watch my tutorial about this here th-cam.com/video/AxkIQi81JP0/w-d-xo.html
Cheers,
DJ Blink-Blink
I love all your videos Blink Blink !!!!

Can this serato dj pro version be used on MacBook Pro 2011 cause the version I’m using is not like this
@elijahmoyinoluwa yes because the MAC I had then was a 2012 and I year behind is not far back 😎👍🏽
I have heard experienced professional dis mix vocals with vocals and pull it off and fit the vocals together however this is a lot harder approach and its easier to do what the video says and keep vocals away from each other and just mix on the non vocal part on at least one deck or both decks.
In all honesty, mixing vocals with vocals is "word play" and won't go down well in wedding or corporate events as you know 😅
However in a club environment or private event, you would be a star and would definitely be hailed as a king!!
So will I "word play" if I get the chance? Naaaaaaaa
Now you ask why....well it's too much headache and stress mate 😅😂
Cheers,
DJ Blink-Blink
@@DjBlinkBlink definitely agree I've heard people like Dave Clarke, junior Vasquez and Richie Hawtin do it expertly and it sounded great but these are experienced world class djs do I think you average club DJ could pull this off, absolutely not
@@mintomax2 just to clarify, I'm not a "club DJ". Never played in clubs, never will cos I'm a "Wedding & Corporate Events" DJ 👍🏾
Bless up bro
Thanks mate 😎👍🏽

Hellow my DJ.... Is it a must that when composing a song into another one,u play it on a chorus???
Hello Des, well not really. It's just a preference for me because the chorus is a known part of the song. Remember when you are transitioning between tracks, you are aiming to do it "seamlessly" and a good way to get this perfectly is to aim to transit at a section of the song that would "hide" any minor errors. Have a listen to my Ultimate Mix on my website (link below) and you would be able to listen to how I do this www.djblinkblink.com/ultimate-mix-album
Old school here. Where does one even get his music? I'm waiting for my Numark to come in from Amazon.
Best option is to register with music/record pools like BPM supreme, beatsource, digital DJ pool, tidal etc. They do collect a monthly fee but it's worth the access you get to a massive library
Thank you bro!!
hai sir ..i want to study with u how to use dj serato beginner numark party mix..can i know i can stdy this dj?
Hello Farid, to learn to be a DJ you would need to practice a lot. Spend at least an hour everyday on your DJ controller and sharpen your skills. Take a look at my DJ tutorial playlist below (there are 10 videos focused on learning how to better in DJ'ing) th-cam.com/play/PLEayDS13Dep7VcnLMVqOav4L0UUUGbZBi.html
Cheers, DJ Blink-Blink
When setting the hot cue,does that work for all genre of music,btw I’m not a dj,I just love music & the idea of djing
Yes it does cos hot cues are the part of the song you feel or know can blend in when you are mixing, so yes setting the hot cue works for every genre of music.

DJ Blink-Blink

Mr Blink-Blink good day
I am a new DJ trying to come up, please I want to know where I can get my song for mixing because my previous mixing in my TH-cam channel has been labelled as copyright and I need song to grow my DJ SELF and y my TH-cam channel
Hello Sir....I see u used the tempo option to match the BPM. I'm new to the DJ field, can u tell what the difference is between doing it that way and hitting sync on the controller? Thank you!
Hello Gary aka "Gary the king",
Firstly welcome to the DJ world. You would love it and it would open the gateway to loads of fun for you.
So to answer your question, there is no difference between using the SYNC button and tempo option. You just have to make sure your beatgrids are properly set when using SYNC which would allow the 'sync system' to read your tracks easily when calculating the BPM.
You can watch this video I did that discusses sync th-cam.com/video/VwRpi7SRXok/w-d-xo.html
and you can watch this video to learn how to edit your beatgrids th-cam.com/video/VFE-g4g9Wqk/w-d-xo.html

Cheers mate,

@@DjBlinkBlink Thank you very much Sir!
You are welcome bro 👊🏿
how do you slow down the grid like you did in the video?
What is the time stamp or where exactly in the video did I do this so I can check?
At 12:00 you slowed down the best grid. How do you do that?
Hey mate, if you are using Serato DJ, you can slow down the speed of your beatgrids on your screen by pressing the + or - keys on your keyboard. This basically zooms in or zooms out your display and makes it look slower.
Cheers,
DJ Blink-Blink
DJ Blink-Blink ur the man thank you!!!
@@Brandon54m thanks for the kind words and feedback bro. Much blessings 🙌🏿🙏🏿
What things you can goes on while setting hotcues
just bought one of those player I'm just learning to to used it.

Where do you guys get all your music? I'm looking for hip hop music for the cheap price.
Hello Laced Bacon,
We get our musics from record pools like BPM Supreme, digital DJ pool, music pool etc
Serato or recordbox..and wat are the best purchase in uk..serato pro controller beginners
Depends on what you are after when it comes to DJ'ing. Do you want a software that will suggest tracks to you when mixing or not and some other factors?
Also for the UK, beginners have loads of options so you can't really pin a specific software for them.
@@DjBlinkBlink thnks 4 reply ..me being a starter ...if next track suggestion is available..tats great..and also need more fx...for covering up lack of dj skills
.lol
@@MrAnish007 then Rekordbox is best for you mate. You can use intelligent, automix and much more within it to make life easy for you 😎👍🏿

Can I mix with only serato no controller
Yes you can (you will need to also buy 'Seraro Play' before you can use Serato DJ alone without a controller)
how do you get the beat grid to show on serato scratch live
To access the beat grids feature on Serato scratch live, you need to download Ableton and then go into the Setup screen on your Serato scratch live, click Plugins, and make sure Bridge is 'enabled'.
Cheers,
DJ Blink-Blink
What does beat grid do
Beatgrids are series of markers that point to the location of beats within the track. They are used for advanced mixing functions such as sync, precise effects synchronization, looping and accurate BPM representation.

Sorry, how i set range time at +-50%? my default set is ever at +-8%. Please help me PS: I've ddj-sz2
Hi mate, are you talking about the tempo? (increasing the tempo for your BPM)
@@DjBlinkBlink yes, but when i increase tempo with tempo-father using my controller, this stops at 8% but in you video for example i see that tempo reaches also 50%
@@nozer-i-am You can adjust the TEMPO RANGE from 8% / 16% / 50% easily. To do this hold SHIFT and press the TEMPO RANGE button at the same time. Let me know if this helps mate. Cheers, DJ Blink-Blink

can you save cue's for each song, or do you have set then up every time play ?
Hi Brian, Your hot cues are saved permanently for ever song until you delete the hot cues. This means you don't need to set them up every time you play 😎
what mixer would u chose to use with serato dj and 2 turntables ?or should I just get rane sl2 or SL3 ? scratch live dose not have the beat bar to count .
@@DjBlinkBlink
Hi Brian, If I would go for either, I would buy the Rane SL3 cos of the extra features.
Also remember Serato DJ and Serato scratch live would work with both the SL3 and SL2 so you can easily swap over to Serato DJ if you need to use the beat grids or just install Ableton on Serato scratch live
What is a beat grade

you probably explained it perfectly well, but it is still way too complicated for me

hi dj blink
Hello....
And I'm a DJ also me and my sister
Blink Blink it looks like you are using serato dj
I use Serato DJ Pro. Please be aware, all Serato DJ licenses and Serato DJ enabled controllers were carried over to Serato DJ Pro (Serato DJ Intro and Serato DJ packages were combined to become Serato DJ Pro).
So, in as much as you have a full license for Serato DJ as of the end of 2018, you would have been moved over.
Cheers,
DJ Blink-Blink
