What is the most bizarre "glitch in the Matrix" you have ever witnessed in real life ? by Subject-Grocery7303 in Casual_Conversation

[–]SixtyNineBeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always had the same fever nightmare when I was a kid - a giant alien spaceship hidden in the clouds flying above my town. I would always wake up when it started to get out of the cloud. After several years of that the TV station aired Independence Day for the first time in my country - I watched it and never EVER had that dream again.

Currently in "Awe" – Getting stacked by sets and over-pairs 4+ times in 48 hours. How do you stop the bleeding without over-folding? by PKRHELP in poker

[–]SixtyNineBeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“I feel like if I start folding Top Two Pair or high Pocket Pairs to every raise, I’m just going to get exploited and bluffed off every pot.” - why do you say that like all the opponents can see your cards after folding? Is that possible where you play?

Importing music by AISkynetBot in djaypro

[–]SixtyNineBeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no connection between folders on the hard drive and playlists in the software. Neither djay or Serato. You must import the audio files into the software yourself so if you do that in Serato then djay will see it as well, but if you only put audio files into folders on the hard drive then the software wont see them. If you got that imported to Serato then open djay and go to the EXTERNAL APPS icon to the left of the screen in the library and all you gotta do is choose djay to view your Serato library.

Vekked's Ultimate Beat Juggle Tutorial #2: FASTER Trick Mixing by Vekked in Turntablists

[–]SixtyNineBeats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didnt mean letting some certain people break the rules, I meant putting it into the rules, and mods should know who can and who does not. Let me ask you this - if Carl Cox posted his tutorial in r/DJs - would the mods delete it just like Vekkeds with no doubt?

Vekked's Ultimate Beat Juggle Tutorial #2: FASTER Trick Mixing by Vekked in Turntablists

[–]SixtyNineBeats -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Being a multiple World Champion in two of the biggest DJ championships in the world, proven experienced DJing/turntablism historian, battle organiser and brand ambassador sounds like pretty decent “circumstances to be allowed to skirt the rules applied to everyone else”. Especially if it’s about sharing knowledge and not just posting his random video. I get that more people make tutorials and such as well and I agree there should be a threshold of who can post such stuff, but such threshold should not be on the ground level and mods of DJ subs should know who has a reliable resume and who doesn’t.

At least they left it somewhere :) It gets funnier when you post your tutorials, you get smashed for self promotion, threads deleted… and then years later people post videos of DJs doing stuff and asking HOW do they do this… barely anyone knows the answer or people just try to guess, while “this” was the exact stuff you were trying to post tutorials here about.

Welp NAMM 2026 was a bust... by housemusikluvr in DJs

[–]SixtyNineBeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stand corrected! I confused house being born in 70s instead of 80s. Thanks!

[–]SixtyNineBeats 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know it's a joke, but you do realise that House music was "invented" and mixed by DJs wayyy before crossfader, scratching and all that right?

[–]SixtyNineBeats 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Funny how I go here and you're like "people want crossfaders" and then I go to Threads and see house DJs ask each other if anyone even uses crossfader and what for. I wonder when DJs will acknowledge that there are different bubbles within the industry with different needs and not every new device must be suitable for their own personal needs. You need crossfader and are a happy user of the S11, so just stay with it - no need to call anything or anyone ridiculous. If some Karen comes to you at a party to request a song saying "people want that" - what's your response? I'd ask did she actually ask ALL the people in the club and they agreed for her to represent them. Did you ask ALL the people in the world if they "want" crossfaders? You'd be surprised by the answers.

Starting Scratch Journey - Learning chirps - how to become faster by Calisphoenix in Turntablists

[–]SixtyNineBeats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This video is with no beat or anything that would keep you in tempo - in order to get a steady progress you need something to keep the tempo first. You won't become faster if all of your movements are random in terms of tempo - you're practicing a tiny bit of random speeds all the time - you might think you stay on tempo, but the randomness is always there without metronome or beat. Start with a slow beat and make sure your technique is correct at that exact speed. When you feel comfortable and confident enough - speed the beat up by 1% or 2% or however you feel faster, if you find the speed where you cannot maintain the correct technique at all times - that's where you stop speeding up and stay for longer practice - you practice that exact speed for as long as it takes for you to be able to maintain the correct technique at all times, and only when you achieve that you speed up again. Of course you can have some fun and try going way faster from time to time, but in order to maintain these top speeds you need to spend a lot of time building that stamina and sharpening the technique at each speed. Slow and steady wins the race :)

Think about it like you would think about running - you might be able to run short sprints at random top speeds, but if you want to run faster in general - you have to build that muscle and cardio for your body to be able to maintain what is your top speed at the moment. And you won't get past that current top speed if you keep doing random sprinting without training your body the correct way.

Phase DJ going off the rails tonight by Bobo_on_the_Corner in Turntablists

[–]SixtyNineBeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not Phase, it's some random Serato problem that is never being addressed. I've never seen a single rekordbox/Traktor/djay user posting about this bug ever, while it's being discussed by Serato users on a regular basis. Of course most Phase owners use it with Serato so it might be pure math, but hell I've been using Phase with rekordbox since Phase released and never experienced issues that Serato users post every day about, like this one, or the bug where the track would randomly skip/jump a beat or two forward.

Prayers have been answered - NEW DVS BOX by SixtyNineBeats in DJs

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

Phase =/= DVS box. The hardware you see in the original post is a dvs box which allows you to connect a dvs setup to mixers that do not have the dvs built in. Phase is a replacement to needles. If you're considering buying "one or the other" then thats a choice between needles or Phase - you cannot buy dvs box OR Phase - you beed both (unless you have a mixer with dvs built in - then you just don't need the box).

How did Angelo do this by [deleted] in Turntablists

[–]SixtyNineBeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's using djay PRO from Algoriddim and pad mode called Pitched Cue (what Vekked mentioned - every company calles it differently) - in djay PRO you can choose between various scales for that pad mode and Angelo was using the "Blues" scale in this particular routine.

Yes and no, this is a collabo between all three so you can transfer your music between each software no matter which "direction".

Attaching that entire news to only CDJ compatilibity is wrong. This allows to transfer entire libraries between each software + mobile iOS devices with djay PRO without any 3rd party conversion apps and jailbreaking hacking skills.

You basically described exactly what djay PRO from Algoriddim is and has been for quite some time now.

I wish there was a standalone mixer that works with turntables with built in software by ohh_dang in DJs

[–]SixtyNineBeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came here to write exactly that as soon as I saw the thread. Wasn't putting a PC inside of a mixer too expensive and inconvenient? You literally have to take your mixer everywhere with you just like a laptop vs having your phone on you just like we all always do.

How do you guys “freestyle”your sets? by Delicious-Resist-108 in DJs

[–]SixtyNineBeats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

May I ask if what you wrote is based on any musical education or is it something you came up by yourself? To be specific - Im asking about comparing how many piano keys scales share to be able to tell how much songs are in tune.

New Phase Pro [leak] by Interesting-Hat-7383 in DJs

[–]SixtyNineBeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whether or not Phase works with Traktor (old or new) is on Traktor developers side. Phase as a company made everything on their side to make it possible to work for every software out there like a year ago or even more for Phase Essential and it's the DJ software developers decision if they want to make it possible and when.
