    Not kidding, the best trick I learned from this video is shift - jogwheel! THANKS!

    Thanks - great explaination. Where this becomes really important is if you play on both a controller (I use a DDJ1000) and also play on CDJ's. I made the mistake of marking all my track structures (intros/outros/breaks etc) using hotcues - but certain CDJ's only support limited cue points (eg 2000nexus only support 3 hotcues) Using memory cues to mark track structure is a better way to go - and is supported on CDJ's. If you work across DDJ's and CDJ's its worth thinking about what the minimum supported hotcues on the CDJ you will be using is.

    • @maxsoderstrom
      @maxsoderstrom 4 роки тому +1

      I believe the CDJ-Nexus2's have 4 hot cue buttons with a Bank 1 and Bank 2 option, making it possible to access all eight of your hot cues. (If you wanna buy your way out of that hassle...) :D

    • @davidreynaud7614
      @davidreynaud7614 4 роки тому

      I just got a pair of cdj 900 nxs . Does they support only 3 memory cues as well ? ( No hot cues ?)

    • @tubaloon81
      @tubaloon81 3 роки тому +10

      Top notch comment. I fortunately learned about this before using CDJs the first time and spent time redo my library to mark lead-in, hot start, and end points using memory cues that had been all hot cues.

    • @ArduousFormula
      @ArduousFormula 3 роки тому +2

      Big thanks didn't know I could do this. Main reason for using rekordbox is so I can practice at home on the same library configuration as on a CDJ with USB export.

    • @cameroncrawford5744
      @cameroncrawford5744 3 роки тому +1

      Do you know if when using CDJ's does the names and colours of hot cues show up on the screen? How do I know what hot cue is 128 beats from the drop and whats 64 beats? Cant find this answer anywhere.

    This is a massive shift in my understanding of cue points, thank you so much Jamie!

  • @DamienAlexander
    @DamienAlexander 2 роки тому +6

    The counting down to a cue point on the bars indicator is amazing, then you know exactly when to mix in another song to line up the drop

  • @ls4life544
    @ls4life544 5 років тому +23

    Honestly, the only benefit of memory cue is that it is the only way you can get a count down to the next cue or part of the song you added a cue point. Pioneer should change the use of memory cue to fade in and fade out memory cue. And count down to the next cue should be a default setting when you add a hot cue.

  • @CuthbertNibbles
    @CuthbertNibbles Місяць тому

    I truly appreciate the way you teach. You explain what you're going to do/show, run through it in a calm flow, and then reaffirm what just happened, highlighting the controls and explaining what they did one by one. It makes it very easy for newcomers (like myself) who don't already know this ecosystem, to learn how this technology works and how to use it. Goal-oriented, clear and concise are very good tools for teaching.
    I find a lot of "for beginners" tutorials are just DJs showing off their skills, with extravagant hand movements and layering multiple techniques with the only explanation being "you just-" followed by an unnarrated demo, which is hard to learn from.

    This is great! I’ve watched videos on Hot vs Memory Cues before but now I really get it and am using Memory Cues a lot more since I watched it.

  • @Ireful
    @Ireful 5 років тому +2

    Thank you so much for explaining how memory Cues work. I use two XDJ-700 and since there's only 3 hot cues on it, it's nice to know I can use the memory cues to save more starting point or to serve as markers. Showing where the memory cues are shown on Rekordbox is a big plus too.

  • @computingfoundations3499
    @computingfoundations3499 4 роки тому +2

    Jamie! Thanks for this tutorial. It helped me make sense of why I'd use a hot cue vs memory cue. I had learned how to use each, but I was confused why I'd use one over the other.

  • @yondergirl83
    @yondergirl83 3 роки тому +4

    Hey Jamie!
    Wanted to thank you for all your effort you put into this. I watched quite few DJ tutorials but yours is PERFECT, straight to the point, great explanation.
    I paid in Hungary for a DJ course, it's a total rip off. For 600 euro the guys told me I cannot delete a hot cue from my RX2 and i need to do it in rekordbox. And that is a DJ school!
    I learned from you so much more! I will definitely purchase the advance DJ package from you, I feel like I owe you to be frank, your videos gave me most of my knowledge.
    I had no idea what is the shift button for. I pressed the hot cue so many times by mistake. The memory function is just grate to have a smooth set, with proper beat-count.
    Thank you again!
    YOU ARE A STAR!!!

    the real difference is : Memory cue only accessible when the deck is NOT playing. Hot's only when playing the deck. This makes it very versatile to use a them as mix of mem's and hot's.

      Hey do you know of any reason a memory cue would be functional when a track is playing? I have an xdj-rr and for some reason my memory cues work even if a song is playing. this is an issue because it stops playing track. Any ideas?
