what do you mean by choosing your dj banner ?
Thank you this is quite useful for people who are struggling. People who say learn vinyl yada yada is just gate keeping. It’s 2024 and there’s technology now and we need to use it. I understand that we need to learn “in case” of tech malfunction but I believe are tech now is too advanced to malfunction. Maybe you are terribly unluckily if there’s tech problems. It might be like a percentage of a plane crashing (please not that the tech for planes are years years years ago) so yeah thank you for this and boohoo for the haters who aren’t using the tech currently. I’m sorry that you all had to learn the hard way but as a community we should be all helping each other out not hating or giving snarky comments about this dude.
the bits about explicitly leveraging color to improve how you snap-process the interface are simple but clever. Really appreciate that all the advice in this video was specific and actionable with not just the "what" but also the "how" and "why" behind each tip.
I’m sooooooo glad I clicked this and it wasn’t a waste of time bc I have set coming up and you definitely just helps my anxiety by like 15% in five minutes. Amazing. The energy visual and separating is goatedddd
Chris, buddy you're just not discovered yet, hope you get more eyes on ya. Solid content, high quality, witty. You're a whole package 😂
I appreciate that!
💯
Bro how much work hours go into this? Cause the quality marketing storytelling is soo gooood. Maybe someday I will get to this level 🙏
Thanks! They take a long time. You'll get there!
It was very helpful for a beginner like myself. Thank you and just subscribed!
great content man, beginner here. thankyou for all the tips, and funny side marks
It would be cool if Pioneer had a mechanism to add separators without the need for having a blank separator track. But awesome suggestion. Thanks!
hey mate, i really enjoy your channel, thanks for all the work ! will be great to have more Engine tips and tricks , thanks
Cool tips. I see this is more for rekordbox in the laptop. How about tips for those who play in CDJs with USB sticks? I always find it difficult to find tracks in the CDJ, even though I had them organized in the computer.
That's a whole different kettle of fish. More CDJ stuff coming in future hopefully :)
Reducing the number of columns shown is a good idea to help PC users practice to use CDJs/XDJs since they only show a few columns. To me the track browser is the biggest difference between RB on the PC and the CDJ interface.
Great point. Definitely much more limited info available on a CDJ @@mrbishi634
Ive found that knowing music and the culture is the most important thing .... if u know the songs that keep people dancing thats all that matters no 1 really cares about all the complicated stuff but other djs .... most people are drunk and just wanna hear the hits that Simple stop over thinking it
"...and Blue, da ba dee da ba di" 🤣EPIC
🔵
Thanks M8, It all makes sense, You just saved my bacon, Got a show on today, Nice1 and Happy New Year
ooo using a blank track as a divider is a great idea
Subbed , nice 1 fella
Great Video as always !! keep the great work!
'The Separator' something Ive thought about and wished Rekordbox would bring out. Cheers
I really enjoyed the humor in this video... keep them coming! ("bead of sweat running down your butt crack" ...LOL)
Great video. Thanks for uploading it. I'm not a Rekordbox user but thinking maybe I should be.
Just transitioned into Rekordbox, and thanks to your videos I wasn't as terrified as I could've been
Great to hear!
If you don’t asking why did you transitioned to rekordbox?
@@kertinaproduction5486 I just felt like taking a step towards the club standard software was the thing for me. I did look around first and compare softwares, but in the end, I just felt that going for the biggest and most used one would be the easiest for me.
Me too, coming from Traktor, well, some things really are messed up, and multiple bugs that are just unbelievable, why they don't fix them.
Great stuff! - always stay organized! Thanks for this video!
Brilliant! Thank you 💯🙏
Nice tips, for me essentially the tips about color's tag !
😂Face Melter🔊🫠🙌🏻 Great video dude, just earned another subscriber. Definitely need to give my library a good clean up and organise. Looking forward to watching more of your videos🤙🏻
Love this content! Thanks for the tips!!!
These are really great tips!
Good advice, always stay organized
You funny and helpful bro lol. Congrats I subbed
I was working in something like this. You helped me a lot! Thank you very much ❤
“Unless it’s tech… too soon” 😂
AS always, top quality video with very good tips. Thanks Chris !
This is so good! ❤
5:12 dude i laughed for a straight minute after you caught me off guard with blue daba dee daba dae hahahahh, loved it had to comment
💙
very nice advices!!!!
I learned the blank audio separation from R3wire years ago. I had no idea you can color tracks.
Quick question. How do you have so much space in your library? My deck are taking away all my space. Your decks are a little more up. Can u help. What settings should i use
ruclips.net/video/zP_BG6RyrAI/видео.html&lc=Ugzjwk5_dexe0F4ntml4AaABAg should help!
Love it. Really helpful - thank you.
Mind blown; sub'd. TY sir!
Love the ideas!!
Great video thanks for this!
Simple yet golden information right here🔥
Thank you mate 🙌🏽
Do you think using a blank track as a divider ？ Create a playlist for each miniset what is the difference
"Face Melter" .. have to copy this for one of my playlists. 😅
Thx chris -chris
Thank you Sir 🤎🤎
Another banger of a video. I've been using two kind of separator "tracks", one a blank separator and one as a marker to signpost playlist during prep where I want to add more tracks.
Coming to rb from vdj one of the saddest moments was losing the ability to dynamically colour tracks in playlists based on rules (similar to rules in intelligent playlists in rb). Still miss that vdj feature
Yeah that would be super handy - maybe one day we will get it 🫣
what you mean by signpost playlist?
@@360kal meaning marking where in the list I want to add more tracks
@@DmitryInNz thanks! One more question. How do I duplicate this separator track in the same playlist? I’ve tried it on lexicon, rekordbox and serato. Can’t find an option to allow dupes in a playlist.
@@360kal in RB I just get a popup asking whether to add duplicate or skip when adding a duplicate to the playlist.
I really like your videos !
Can you make a video about double tracks , I have a MacBook and I want to delete some double files in rekordbox and also delete the songs on my Mac.
And could you explain some ways to edit the MP3 and WAV files. When I do this in rekordbox, my file name will still have the original name. Is there a easy way to rename it for both or should I do this multiple times?
Tanx for the help ! Your videos helps me a lot ! My library is cleaning up very fast and I love the edits !
I have something that may help with deleting files - check out this video :) ruclips.net/video/MnYxLnWnFWs/видео.html
Great videos my dude. Question please- what does energy really mean 2 u? The word in this context seems a bit nebulous to me. I have a 120 bpm deep house(from ur vids not ur cup of tea) and people love it and sing along. It’s a banger but I would not say it has high energy. In your classification is that like 3-4 even though it the crowdloves it?
It's subjective - for me I use energy for how a track makes me feel personally. I used to have tags like 'singalong' which you could maybe try out in this sort of scenario
Great tips.
Yoo chris, where can I listen your dj set? I love dnb and your tips are very helpful - I need to see what your performance is actually like
I did a guest mix recently here m.soundcloud.com/datatransmission/pachelle-presents-over-the-moon-episode-5?in=pachellemusic/sets/over-the-moon-radio
Mmbop is a great emergency banger! :'D
thats amazing tips man..thank you..there seems to be something wrong with the DL of the file. Can you update the link?
Just checked-link seems to be working for me
Red = Face melter 😂
Nice one Chris 🫶
Hey, man. What camera do u use? 😎
Just my iPhone 📱
Help! In Rekordbox if you load a random track, is there an easy way to then see what playlists this song appears in? This useful for example when you get a request song and you want to find similar stuff to play alongside it.
Check the latest video 👀
If I make these changes in Rekordbox will they translate over to the Cd-js of the clubs I play in?
Anything related to the construction of playlists can be synced to a USB as normal to play on CDJs
nice tips Im gonna watch that Marie Kondo flick on Netflix...
🧹
i made myself three separator tracks in ableton - one with just bass, one with mids and one with high frequencies - so i have a color code in the separators. also i pushed the volume as high as possible - and the seperators look really like "blocks", because the waveform has no dynamics.
Very cool!
Just don’t play those tracks 😂😂👍🏼
Chris - I'm on Serato - am I doomed?
Or can I apply these ideas to my 2nd rate DJ crates??
You should be able to apply most of these!
U tha Man!!
In my categories ALBUM is greyed out and I can't get rid of it! WHY!
nice 👍
Genius.
"Dabadee dabadye" 🤣
Good video
Legend
WoW 😯😎😁great 🙃
can u please tell me is there any online ai website can upload to and fix the beatgrid for all old disco (all type) music on beat ? 🙏🙏
@ReallyChrisM What hot key did you use to quickly duplicate your separator track?
uhm maybe you know ? how can i make the wave / track thing at the top bigger ? if i use 4 decks its sooo tiny, even only 2 decks is tiny on a 4k screen.
i dont want to put my desktop quality down just to make it bigger theres gotta be a way right ?
also i didnt found an option for the cfx/filter knob to "kill" the track at 0% i always had that in virtual dj.
Afraid they are fixed size-it’s not ideal
@@ReallyChrisM crazy... thats the most important part .. i dont understand why
Using stars _and_ color to clarify the energy of a song is bit redundant. I think the rating should be kept for how good you estimate the track will work with the audience, beside the energy color.
Also, doesn't the separator trick only work if your playlist is sorted "by track order" on the playlist? Wouldn't the visual layout with separators break once you sort the playlist by other columns, like title, bpm, key, rating, color, etc..?
The separator works best in scenarios where there is an implied structure to the playlist. For example a pre-planned guest mix or the mini set examples.
If you are sorting by other fields such as title or bpm the implication is the playlist is unstructured and I wouldn't use the separator in those cases
@@ReallyChrisM I think you forgot to tell people the playlist need to be sorted by Track Order for it to work than.
@ReallyChrisM what hot keys did you use to quickly duplicate your separator track?
There aren’t any for this, I just dragged it in multiple times
This vid wow
DJ'ing should not be easy, its a skill that must be learned and mastered wich makes it special to be able to do! Teach yourself to dj on a cdj1000. Without all the extra shit that makes it so easy. No sync, bad waveform visuals and just learn your songs, learn how to beatmatch, and try to really master the skill of DJ'ing. After that, you dont even want to use rekordbox anymore.. and most inportant.. dont be afraid of making mistakes!! Thats part of the learning process and even sometimes creates the most happiest little accidents (sometimes) #keepitoldskool!
Soul Shake (1991 Remix) and Jenny From The Block in the same playlist?
How to download the blank separater ur file is not opening
I checked the link and still working for me
Know its working for me too bro tnk you
Glasses 👓 work really well if you are short sighted 😉 too!
I’m here for the ongoing tech house meta
Not bad, the system I use is not so dissimilar to this one.
The 'like' button is on 808. whoops! 809 now sorry ;-)
DJ sets are full of change unless its tech-h.... (too soon). lol. tech house is the country music of electronic
Look mate can you DJ on Turntables you only need your ears, no sync no colour no technical issues lol
You can make fire with 2 sticks also, what kind of idiot does that in this day and age just for clout
1:29 - You definitely didn’t forget the fucking dots - you actually used an EXTRA dot at the end!
Dots for everyone ⚫️⚫️⚫️
@@ReallyChrisM The world would be better with more dots for sure! Love your content!
Blank tracks? Just create multiple playlists.
most of us have enough playlists already, having an individual playlist for every double would be chaos
Loco alguien que traduzca que no entiendo un choto :(
Just get to know your tracks well and you will not need any of these „advices“. Also someone who doesn't know what to play next shouldn't be a DJ at all.
Yawn..
You can all learn this stuff, I'm currently a beginner and it's pretty hard to exactly know what to play next
Learn on vinyl, problem solved.
Vinyl is like BBQ with a Campfire, a nice Vibe, but unhandy, frustrating and much more work than needed.
I like playing Vinyl in a private, comfortable Session without Pressure (at Home with Friends), but live its so much stress you could use for more Creative Things…
@@Maestro.Cannoli It'll make you a better Dj on all formats was my point.
If you can Dj in vinyl, it'll be a breeze on a controller.
@@biddlybongdavinport5995 true!!
@@biddlybongdavinport5995grow up. this video is specifically for djs who dont use vinyl.
Except decks and records cost a little more .. in case you hadn’t noticed. Oh and are way heavier to lug around, in case you had forgotten.
Top video, many thx.
How about learning how to read a crowd and improvising on the fly in an organic way, like we all used to?
damn.
