    I plan to actually do a video on this exact subject. Honestly, it’s pretty similar but the djms9 mixer offers a better scratching experience when coupled with the Rane 12s for a few reasons. However, the Rane one is still a beat and very capable of getting the job done.

    You’re very welcome! So I record my screen using QuickTime player, and I also record my mixer audio (serato audio) in QuickTime at the same time. Then I record my actual Dj equipment separately, and in final cut, I just place the serato screen recording over the equipment footage and trim the screen recording so it fits at the top.

    The secret to speed is not practicing a single tehnique faster and faster till you mess up. The secret is to practice to a metronome get good at one speed, then up the tempo, and get good at that, then up it again etc... Thats it.
