Hey DJTT,
I'm looking for some tips for practicing mixing. I've been mixing for about a year now but I want to step up my game. I am using traktor 2 pro with the NI S2. Most of what I will be mixing is house and moombahton with a little bit of dubstep. Any help is appreciated you can hear one of my mixes here http://soundcloud.com/philthypdubste...various-bass-3
Thanks
There's no secret to practicing, just have to do it and keep at it and keep listening to other peoples mixes as well
Yes. Protip for practicing: Practice :-D
Perfect practice makes perfect. Just make sure you're practicing correctly and not developing bad habits.
Look up what 'deliberate practice' means...
You want to practice the right things:
- Record yourself, and listen back, did it sound good?
- Work on your sets progression, just dont play any track at any time.
-Work on changing a set depending on a crowd (or a pretend one)
and ill say it again, record your sets... and listen back.
That's good advice right there
If you record yourself, and your mix sounds 100% perfect, listen to it again, and find the subtle things that can be worked on. DJing is an art, and artists will never be 100% happy with their creations. Find something to work on, and make it better.
