    i dont think he adjust manually the pitch. it would be a waste of time since traktor has a great built in bpm counter.

    anyways its nice to have a pitch bend for fine adjusting (nothing is perfect)

    hi ean, nice vid.

    i see that you use the joystick to activate the effect but also to adjust the dry/wet. am i right?

    but what happens if you want to adjust the signal differently on each deck?
    for example add some reverb to ch 1 and delay to ch 2, but have the ch 1 at 25% and ch 2 at 100%.

    you use vertical axis for ch 1 and horizontal axis for 2? you dont take care about using the fx independently on each channel?

    see you

    bests

    Did you modify the Novation Remote or is it just as you bought it?

    great video. I also use traktor with my oxygen 8v2, but I can’t find pitch bend and tempo bend functions in traktor to assign them to the keyboard. hope I’ll find them ;)

    Dark Side Of The Sun Feat. Puppetmastaz… wicked sick track

    It looks like it is the highest end Macbook that you can get. Prolly has maxed out ram and stuff. I use a Macbook at home with my personal mixing and it is enough power to do 2 deck mixing with an external midi/turntable controller.

    Im looking to upgrade my laptop or either get a new one depending on the amount of power I could pack into the laptop I already own. I just wanted to know what type of laptop you use? Specs?

    Great MIDI markings and set up. It totally helps to see a set up and what type of ASIO interface is used in a club setting. Will definitely check out the other videos. Thanks! Oh and the first song is “days like this”(dj spinna and ticklah remix)by shaun escoffery, right? Marques Wyatt “For those who want to get down” CD. Excellent tune.

    hei Ean :)
    i need a name of this song… PLEASE

    i love your style of mixing… ist realy cool

  20. S1L1C0N Says:

    So where do you do pitch adjustment finding a cue point etc??? The tasks done by platters on the VCI 100.

  21. originalfreestyle Says:

    wow

  22. eangolden Says:

    yeah- the only time I have problem is if I connect my midi controllers after you start traktor. then they wont show up, as they need to be there at start up. Does that fix it?

  23. joewheelar Says:
