A good way to encourage people to join your little DJ club could be to encourage newbies to practice manual DJing on their own using Traktor. You can get a demo for Traktor 1.2.2 at: http://co.native-instruments.com/index. ... emoversion You could give out CD's with this Traktor 1.2.2 Demo and these instructions below as well as mix CDs to promote your little DJ Club, you can only give these away- if you sell it you'll infringe on Copyright Law. In the Master Control panel in the center, ensure the “CD Mode” button is highlighted as this will enable you to use the Repeating/Cue function just like a twin deck CD player. I use the (Shift) up, down, (Ctrl) left and right arrows to scroll through my music collection and load into decks A and B. I then play (A on Deck A and Z on Deck , pause (A, Z) to activate the Repeating/Cue function, then I adjust using the Repeating/Cue (Shift D/F on Deck A and Shift C/V on Deck , then I Cue it to save its position (S on Deck A and X on Deck , occasionally I’ll Beat-Step to the 16th Beat (D/F on Deck A and C/V on Deck and Cue it (S, X) from there. Then I SYNC either deck (G on Deck A and B on Deck Then I Cued/Play it by tapping the Cue button (S, X) then holding Cue and pressing Play (A,Z) then releasing the Cue button. If its not perfectly Beat-Matched I’ll use Nudge-Mode (H/J on Deck A and N/M on Deck to momentarily adjust the pitch to Beat-Match perfectly. http://www.4keyboard.com/native-instrum ... cb29b31a17 The function that most people use on a CDJ1000 is the Nudge function to beat-mix perfectly, so I guess all of the newbie DJs could practice PC DJing using the Nudge function on Traktor anywhere that they happen to be with their Laptop. They'll probably never DJ in a Club with Traktor but your DJ Club members can certainly use Traktor as a tool to practice with and this will encourage them to actively participate in your DJ Club.
