How to DJ: How to use the Pitch Control Pt. 1

Good day folks, and welcome to 2007 and that excuse the autumn again behind me. Let say anyone get a camera to focus. On the pitch control here, now and pop to I have done a video on this I am going before. This is in three sections, first we will take about the second one is doing the mix. Third one is doing diagrams of paper courtesy of my dual spend. Right now it falls you behind I call as the pitch control is basically keeping you in beat. If you imagine 2 clocks and they are identical clocks but are join together even if they start at the same time and they are going tic at the same time and talk guaranteed unless a cool steady most will most expensive clocks in the world and that somehow joined so they stay together at the same time and will eventually go off so it will go tic tic tactic tactic tic tic tic tic tic tic now catch up again. Now a lot of DJ’s what now do now and a little be in beat boom-boom. In other words, now count the bass correctly it will be in beats together boom-boom. Eventually so now keep the hands on the pitch control or watch the speed of directly what happen eventually it go off. It will stop so it goes. There what happens and think about it, these is possibly where you maybe get wrong. Eventually the base beat would catch it with high halt so as in one one two three two one two three two one two three. One the base beat one two three two so boom boom boom boom the base beats. Eventually what happens is the record it speeding up or slowing down the base beat will catch the high halt beat. At this point, it can only happens sometimes more often and not will happen on a high is the base beat will then the DJ mixing will think crackly I will bring it back into the base beat. But what they do is they bring it back into the following base beats, okay. The one either after the first beat basically where it should be or the one before. Now that point they will start keeping it in beat. But what you will find is at the wrong timing. It is in the wrong place, okay?

Now then, again you will see me do this moving the pitch control quiets a lot, okay and then I get slowly closer and closer and closer. I will explain that in the middle in a little bit with regards to diagram. But first what I want you to do is a video mix and you will see me moving a pitch control smaller and smaller in movement until eventually it roughly about the right place. To touch an they will be using is this one here it’s a track called and like a spatula any booms at the bottom it is presenting fire island voice sound production here though it go it’s one of those. And then the other one my favorite it’s Melissa’s dream on how time labels by Tom’s Terry bit of a classic okay? So what I’m going to do, I’m just pauses now plug the little finger here into the side of the camera and I will have the camera on the side over here so you can see my fingers do that working.
