What up dude, and Merry Christmas. To the question you asked...yes these type of "tutorial/how to/this is how I do it" videos are very helpful and enlightening. Please keep them coming!
@MrWiley33 жыл бұрын
Yes do more videos like this if possible. The reason is that you have a way of explanation that is comprehensive. Other pros think everyone is just in the know and even if we know, some won't it explained like they don't. It's just your personality that gives us better comprehension on the tutorial. Thank you much.

It does not matter how obvious a topic is, someone will always learn. I use cue points heavily but did not know you can name them or the idea of naming them. So thank you.

This was cool to know that I set up the same way. I use cues on most beat changes: Intros, verses, bridges, hooks, outros and sounds/parts I think I may wanna scratch. I’ve only been at this for 7 months but like you said, “Set it for how your brain works.” I didn’t know that you could name the cues so that was cool to see too. Thanks man!

Love this info. I’ve just made the changes in my settings, and I plan to label the cue points from now on. This will really help! I’m not sure if you’ve already covered it, but it’d be good to see a vid going over how you deal with setting/correcting beat grids that are off. Thanks for posting.

Different points of view is how people learn from one another. Honestly I made the mistake of exporting Cue points from Mixed in Key. Lesson learned, that doesn’t happen again. Playing an entire track, not while playing live in a club or event setting, lol. I’m very interested in seeing differences in ways to do things. If we aren’t learning, there’s no point.

great video; my pops used to slap my upside my head when using his LP's to always let the intro's play out; he used to say; stop rushing the song; but like you said; it made me realize that the intro's in most songs are important to hold and lock in...some songs have vocal points that are historic to to lock in as cue's Ex "big pun verbal piece on deep cover remix; when he talks about little Italy speed rap verse....so yes; cues have come a long way; but are very important.

yeah my main 2 cue points are usually when song starts (beat part), and cue 3 is often always once vocals kick in so I can see where they start up. I like mixing in the beat before vocals. Often I'll set som emix out points that'll auto reloop if they work. in virtual dj you can create cue actions like "reloop 16" that'll just place the beat in a loop automatically without pressing anything.

I use the term “fill” to describe drum fills, tags or vocals that drop before the 1...also I put a number on the start Of the mix out point cue...be it 4, 8 or sometimes 16 for house so I know where to start the mix and how long I have before I want to completely kill sound on outgoing travk
@BoomDocs14K3 жыл бұрын
Great video tutorial. I don't think you mentioned the fact that you can also "Color Code" cue points. Along with naming them, I also use colors because they are highly visible without looking at my laptop. For me, Green is the start of the beat on the 1, Blue= Breaks, Bridge, & Choruses, Red is an Intro without a beat, Purple are versus, and Yellow is caution which means Mix-Out point. As you said everybody has their own system, but the colors are there so I take advantage.

I like the idea of 2 mix out points. In general, I find there are cue points (1) for jumping to cool phrases, (2) looping, and (3) points where to start a track and mix out from. At least that’s my take thus far as a newbie DJ (but trained musician).

@DJ-Daz3 жыл бұрын
I do it quite differently, like Cleveland says, there no right or wrong way, just do it how it feels natural to you. I don't use labels as I rarely look at the screen at all, only for track selection, key and BPM. BTW I use RB, I don't know if you can change the colours of the LEDs in serato. I also have a Pioneer XP1, so I have a lot of cue points to play with GREEN The start of the track and vocals BLUE Down beat or cool down ORANGE Starting to warm up RED Hot or when the song is peaking in energy MAGENTA only a few tracks have this, but is absolutely banging! Peak energy. The only problem with this method is it's time consuming. You need to listen to the whole track carefully, go backwards and forwards, hitting cue points, then assigning a colour. Each track, assuming a track is 4 minutes long, can take nearly 10 minutes to work through. But of course, once it's done, it's done forever! Now you can get the phrasing right, you can also jump around the track to your hearts content, phrase to phrase and keeping the energy high. dj-daz.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=10

I spent like an hour last night figuring out how I wanted my cue points. Then like 2 1/2 finally starting to seriously work on setting them. I woke up today and my brain told me it didn't like the method I came up with at all, and to re do the shits. So I spent about half an hour coming up with a new template, but before I wasted another 2 1/2 hours redoing the ones I just made last night. I thought I'd look up a few YT videos for ideas. If left to my own devices, I'm sure I would have gotten the cue points to something I actually liked. But it would have probably taken me like a dozen 2.5 hour sessions lol.
