CDJ 2000 Nexus Tempo Range Help?
Hi!
got some cdj 2000 nexus and im loving them! been using the 6% tempo range, but i seem to notice all these big djs such as hot since 82 and gorgon city use the 10% tempo range? what are the advantages of both> is one better for beatmatching ect? will one make it faster/more accurate and less likely to train wreck?
cheers
check out my soundcloud!
You got some nice jams man. Personally I only switch to 10% when I need to. Good technical skills in your sets too with nice work on effects.
Is that D&B track your productions?
Yeah, i did it a few years ago, just messed around and turned out to get 11,000 views haha!
yeah that sounds about what i do already. find 6% means i can get a bit more of an accurate beatmatch 
cheers man
It’s a weird one Dylan, because I’ve always absolutely preferred the 6% range, too.
It is more accurate, and I prefer that as I find I need to do less pushing & pulling to keep stuff locked.
But like you, I’ve noticed many famous jocks (and most DJs I know) just go with the 10%. It’s just personal taste really.
it depends on if you are finding tracks out of range. if stuff all fits at ±6, that’s fine. I’m at ±10 because the subtle movement to change a bit doesn’t bug me and I tend to find tracks that still use this whole spread. I’ll switch it to ±16 at times if something is too far away from where I’m playing then switch back.
you can be adaptable with this, it’s situational.
Maybe because at 10% range every bold line on the tempo fader is exactly 2% up/down?
