How to DJ for complete beginners! In this video I explain everything needed to get someone with no prior DJ knowledge or experience off the ground and learn the basics of DJing. Follow along as we learn what DJing is, what equipment is needed, and ultimately the entire beat matching process. At the end of this tutorial, you will be able to mix two songs together live, as if you were a DJ performing a live set in front of a crowd. Huge shoutout to Hercules for sponsoring this video and sending me their DJControl Inpulse 200 controller. If you want an easily affordable DJ controller perfect for beginners and want to follow along with this video, I highly recommend checking out this controller: bit.ly/hercules-djcontrol-inpulse-200

Calling all DJs, i have a question: If i want to start DJing, Do I or should i start with beginner equipment (like ddj400) or can i immediately learn from high end equipment? Is it better for me to start with something cheap like ddj 400 or can I use something like this or ddj 1000 to start? And why? Can't i start learning the basics on a high end system?

Thank you man! I wish you the best and hope you conquer all your battles in the future. Don’t limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go as far as your mind lets you. What you believe, remember, you can achieve. We need to accept that we won’t always make the right decisions, that we’ll screw up royally sometimes―understanding that failure is not the opposite of success, it’s part of success.

Beginner DJs, do NOT fade between songs with the crossfader when you start. Use the volume faders instead. Leave the crossfader in the middle. Come back to the crossfader later. It made starting out much easier.

@paulybeefs8588

@@Nikolay-Shterev In short, it's easier to make your mix sound better. The cross-fader is basically just a single volume control for both left and right simultaneously, so you can't use it to precisely control the volume of one side without effecting the other. For house and techno, I've only really seen beginners use a crossfader if they were learning since the concept is simple. If you're skilled, the main reason to use a crossfader is to quick-juggle the beats for creative turntablism style hip-hop mixing. Not only is it ergonomically easier to keep your crossfader at center and just use individual volume controls, but you're using the best tools on the board to do it. Having a pair of vertical 3 inch independent volume controls one each side is better than a single horizontal volume control with paired to both sides (ie a crossfader).

I’m coming back to say THANK YOU, bro I had no idea how to even mix, I mean it sounded nice, but my transitions sometimes sounded forced. I started like 3 weeks ago out of boredom and man this tip really helped.

DJ software & DJ controller (hardware) Parts: 1. Decks Left-Deck 1 Right-Deck 2 2. Crossfader-to control what deck will sound 3. Tempofader-to adjust the tempo 4. Vinyls-to fast-forward or rewind song and for beat matching. How to load on decks: 1. Click & drag the song from library to the decks 2. Adjust the upper middle button to navigate library (you can press it to highlight) and press the load button when ready. Rules of Djing: It's better to choose two songs with similar tempo (speed of the song) or BPM (beats per minutes) Tempo match and beat match.

For more advanced DJs I really really REALLY recommend you learn how sound works and frequencies. Use the eq. If you learn this, you can mix WHATEVER you want. I'm 15 and been djing for 5 years. That is my greatest tip that I wished I had learned earlier. PLEASE try learn it I promise you wont regret it!!
