    Great tutorial, as a pub landlord this video has helped me get started at running my own nights. The way you have split the video into sections makes it easy to go back over sections you may want to revisit. Great work

    I'm playing around with my FLX4 since 6 months right now and have planned to do a web based training soon. Which was new to me is the Key sync. Actually I'm trying to mix songs with the same or +-1 key into each other but I learned that I can use the key sync to switch to another melody. Will try that out soon. I'm connected to soundcloud at the moment but Tidal seems to get a try from me in the near future.
    Also, I must admit, your videos picking me up where I am right now. Hands up for that 🙌🙌

    I learned that the flx4 is prob the best entry level mixer, and software wise prob would be more beneficial to start with rekordbox software . Love your videos guys I’m a big fan of you what you Leeds boys have done, especially Jamie and his mixes and tutorials. Thank you so much from America. When I visit my family in Leeds I hope to stop by HQ and meet you all one day in person! #wearecrossfader

    This is so helpful. Been overwhelmed tbh it’s great tidal has the suggested songs ai feature

  • @cristina_garcia
    @cristina_garcia 5 місяців тому

    What I've learnt is that the suggestion feature also works for streaming services like Tidal. Some months ago, we had to analyse tracks on software once they were loaded to a deck because beatgrid or tempo was usually wrong. I have never used a streaming service to DJ for two years (the years I've been DJing in my bedroom). These improvements in AI suggestion and analysis are very useful when we have a small music library or we take requests of songs we don't have. That's awesome 👍 #wearecrossfader

    Thank you Crossfader for the video... a key takaway for me is that: Its ok to use a key feature such as beat sync, but I should not rely on that feature after aging. #wearecrossfader

  • @diilain
    @diilain 5 місяців тому +1

    I’ve learnt that not only are these demonstrations and instructions really easy to follow and understand, but also by having a music subscription service such as #tidal learning to mix when you’re a newbie can be less daunting and ultimately more enjoyable.
    Thank you for another great tutorial #wearecrossfader

    Tidal is £19 a month and a rip off, especially for hobbyist djs. Use Djay pro and apple music works out nearly half the price and the choice of music is as good I'd not better. I dumped tidal as the DJ extension is a joke. Ok if you are into stems but if you don't need them, don't use tidal. DJ extension from tidal is just a money making scheme.
