Backstory
So ive mixed songs before using programs like sony acid. I have 3 friends who are heavily into DJing. They all use older setups (not much midi involved).
I got the vci 100 arcade controller and a midi fighter. Only thing ive messed with before this was a hercules controller on the program virtual dj. I also purchased the midi fighter kit. But now on traktor; stuffs a bit too confusing. I have all the most recent updates, but right now some ians stuff seems out dates. Ive followed a few tutorials only to run into a road block.
I also have books and tons of sources, the problem is filtering through all the BS to get to whats important, or not a waste of my time. These books make me feel like a 30 year old reading an elementary school book.
(The Question)So can anyone give me some extremely helpful almost for newb links? Im looking for stuff that will jump start my brain into all the digital mixing i want to be able to do.
Basically im looking for tips on how to make good drops, build ups, original remixes, and how to catch up to any updates. I always seem to lag behind, and when i find some link or helpful info thats interesting me, i seem to get outdated info, which runs me into a brick wall which i cant seem to work around to finish my project.
Almost anything would really help me. Maybe a sticky with tons of useful links. Or maybe some tips on how to work traktor properly. Im not quite sure of the extent of info i can recieve, it seems slim, because of how out dated all the sources of info that i have, are at the moment are. But as long as you can teach me how to work things in the most updated version of traktor, id be happy.
