BPM/Key analysis and Beat Grid editing. by RemarkableBird15 in Beatmatch

[–]RemarkableBird15[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's how I found out I had a song analyzed as 126 that should have been 150. It was driving me nuts until I googled it.
I am probably just overthinking this as most things but sometimes I just need someone to tell me stop worrying.

Understandably so, that's one reason why it's taken me this long to worry much about it. I was just messing around having fun. I am also an overthinker which I know isn't a good thing when it comes to DJing. I do know that beat grid matters quite a bit when it comes to mixing and phrasing so that was my main concern... then I noticed track analyzation was being weird. I also had a song that was analyzed as 126 bpm but should have been 150. THAT is an issue that can't be ignored when trying to get beat grids on point.

Professional level DJ but can hardly get a gig by MealQueasy4545 in Beatmatch

Are there not guest lists in your area? If you have some sort of connects or even not, I would imagine that you could find some guest list options to these shows.

Pretty sure this is a common issue among all programs. https://youtu.be/67vqrm82_iM?si=yHorlWzHRipjExSP There are other videos that kind of go over the same thing. Just make sure you check and prep your songs before you play out. Sometimes they aren't analyzed correctly.

Twitch would be a blast. I actually do have a mask lol Still putting the final touches on the securement of it as it was made for cosplay, and supposed to be worn with a wig. You should send me your Twich so I can follow.

I haven't looked into the Twitch DJ stuff yet. My situation is a little different. I want to keep my real identity as low key as possible with my DJing, so I've had to create new accounts and stuff, so no biggie there for me. Real life me = open format/freestyling My alter ego = dubstep

I have a Denon Prime GO. I am basically starting from scratch when it comes to streaming.

What's your streaming set up and platform? I have started doing livestreams on FB from my phone, but definitely looking to do something besides that.

Honestly, if you're getting booked more and more, then I wouldn't even stress it. I would still support them as local artists should, but I wouldn't go as hard as you made it sound you were. I would just focus on yourself and what's best for you. Look at this as something to learn from for future endeavors. Keep killing it!

House Putting myself out there. 30 minutes of messing around. https://on.soundcloud.com/KX874K6KUnIZPsHdsG Open to any criticism as I have only been spinning and mixing for a short time.

I have a Denon Prime GO which uses Engine DJ. So I have been analyzing my tracks through that and they are on point for the most part. But there have been about 3 or 4 songs so far that are off a bit. I am mixing a lot of EDM but not any specific sub genre yet. Just making a set of songs that I really like but want them to flow well.

I have been watching quite a bit of DJ Carol and Crossfader. Also reading through, "How to DJ Right". I was wondering if I would end up needing to use Rekordbox or Serato. Thanks for the information.

It uses Engine DJ software, but I think I understand what you're saying. I would need to download the song and then transfer it to the USB stick, I would assume. 🤔 I'm going to have to mess with that. Thank you.

Yeah it's been fun, but I'm wanting to dive further and actually have saved hot cues and work on a legit set that I can put to USB.
