Launching in?


Recommended Posts

I cant remember what the exact phrase is called, but just wondering. You know how your ment to put it on vinyl mode and scratch till you find the first beat, then launch in the beat at the same time as the current beat playing.

couldn't you just do it like this?

move up in the song till just before the first beat, then hit cue, then push cue again in beat with the music to see if its correct, then push play in time with the music to start them at the same time.

wouldn't that be easer?

i believe they rock over the first beat and cue it that way as when on vinyl if you just hit play there will be the lag when the vinyl is speeding up. but on cdj's and controllers i can't see the issue with doing it that way

first method is how you'd do it on turntables with vinyl....

but yeah, you're correct.

most CD players have auto cue, like andyman said, so 999/1000 your track is cued properly at the first beat anyway.

Yes it is.

But its not that hard cueing up vinyl style. It just takes more time.

I only ever cue up the old fashioned way when using vinyl/timecode vinyl. Its just easier to use the CDJ's magic cue button.

if you have a CDJ mode u can use that to cue accuratly aswell

in CDJ mode wen u pause the song (where you wanna set your cue), u will hear it stuttering...just move tte platter to the start of the beat (where the stuttering JUST stops), set you cue point there. and u got urself a perfect cue ;)
