I'm a rider and platter brusher. I can have two tracks I've not heard before locked in 5 seconds on 1200 MK2's. Ive been at it for 34 years! Good vid.

Shogun audio & Hospital! Good choice brother!

[mtoltsis]

Thank You for the knowledge. Simply put, therefore comprehaodable. Also the records are amazing.

Awesome quick start guide, and very simply explained. 👏 I kinda knew the thing with the framematching before you explained it, but I didn’t know it was called like this. Since I started listening to electronic in my early teenage years, I noticed this 1/2/3/4 pattern from the tracks, probably even earlier. Those Technics turntables are freakin’ expensive, by the way, but they’re well worth it if you’re an audiophile and an electronic music enthusiast who respects himself. Great job and thank you! 🙏

Thanks for explaining the basics!I did not get the 2 ND part of it!It s a more clearer to me at this point!I learnt on cdj a long time ago...and thought that ppl will not consider vynils at these time but I see most of real djs appreciate them!It s probably the best to start mixing on vynils!

Quite frankly, it can’t be taught. You need the desire and passion to learn.

Hey man! I just got a pair of audio technica and a omnitronic rotary but I have never really mixed with a rotary😅 any tips on that? Ik it’s basically the same but I have a problem quite understanding it. Really good video 🫶🏽

i have mk5 g, how do you find the pitch on them? accuracy? I can cue mine up perfect but come to send off there can be a quick change either faster or slower compared to how I had it cued, wonder if you had any similar experience

[cameronleehorace]

I do all of this but still I mess it up and can't even do it and it sounds like a crash of beats.

[barrywatts]

Concentrate only on new record beat. Pick a sound that stands out from other record aswell

[barrywatts]

If the beat Moves out of sink to far start again straight away. Just pitch try again. Match with record hand then pitch adjustment so on intill fine tune

[Lyon_Jolie]

Seem easy but tough for the beginner ...how we can know the next song is more or less bmp... and pitching for matching is tough

[SebaStian-pywn]

When both records have the same bpm.. why do i have to adjust the speed?? Pls answer me this question

[OgDj]

Beat matching and phrase matching looks like it’s exactly the same… 🤔 Or, did I miss something?

[SebaStian-pywn]

One part i dont understand. You said both reckrds have the same speed aka bpm, why do you have to adjust the speed when both records have the same speed?
