Hey, I think you should definitely do a video about connecting dj equipment. Not for a specific controller but generally about how to connect sound systems, cdj’s, mixers, and all the cable types and what all the different cables do.

Thanks Jamie! These tips are very helpful about how to use your master track for key notations. Just bought a DDJ1000 and new to Rekordbox from being in Serato. Just purchased your intermediate Rekordbox course and ready to learn some awesome features!

One day a DJ saved my life lol. I was using the classic key system and it was driving me nuts. Thanks.

About to throw my first Gig, can't thank you enough for all your help!

"Last night a DJ saved my life" (and it was you) thanks a lot for the tip i really needed !!!

Thank you very much. I got beat matching now transitions working on track selections is the next step and this breaking down keys and learning the camelot wheel has helped tremendously. thank you.

Great video!
One thing to add: Rekordbox Key Analysis sucks big time! Make sure that when you import a mp3 with pre rekorded key (like from Beatport or Taxsource) into your collection, that you turn OFF the key analysis, otherwise it will be overwritten with what rekordbox thinks most Techno Tracks are written in...Dm, Fm, Am...another costly alternative: Mixed in Key, to my knowledge the best Key Analysis Programm out there.

Such a simple tip, but this just made my mixes so much easier! Rekordbox has too many features and they just keep on comin

[TheTrickster]

Fantastic!! didn't know that, hope there's more like that!! Cheers Jamie

Great video Jamie, can you let me know if you are planning a tutorial on beat grids and how to fine tune them, this would be so useful to know the correct way of doing it in Rekordbox

Hi, My Tracklist is not getting highlighted to choose the mixing, when I load a track. I don't see the tracks are not getting highlighted in green.

[deesse]

The "master" button that you pushed doesnt show up for me on rekordbox, i got it quite recently too?

[Digzeee]

Can you do a video on “how to mix in key” with vinyl please..

[ryskee_deluxe]

super clear and helpful, cheers legend

[mambamindsets]

Noob here! Does this work for tracks accessed through Tidal or do you have to download the track for the Key numerics to display across each track?

[Lkaah]

Thanks! One question when I load my songs via the Soundcloud library, I don't see the master button at the top of the playlist. Where can I toggle it on/off in that case?
