Ending a DJ set?

Ending a DJ set?

How do you end a set? I’ve seen Steve Angello, Tommy Trash, all big name DJ’s use this effect where you loop the end of a track and shorten the loop gradually and then it ends on a big ‘boom’ sounding and that’s how they end their set? Does anyone know what it’s called or how to do it?

Just like how you describe it. You loop it and make the loop smaller until its a high pitch sound. Maybe modulate the filter or pitch then launch an explosion sample. Unless this is a troll post.

You only need an ending like that if you’re the last DJ playing. Usually you want to play a track that’s close to the style of the next DJ playing after you.

With this.

I turn the dry/wet all the way down on the appropriate effect bank, then turn the delay and reverb parameters to max (I use the effects in simple mode.), as the song or phrase I have selected to finish with comes to conclusion I slowly tease up the dry/wet knob and A) either let the song play out or B) stop the song at an appropriate time. This creates a nice effect that really slowly trails off and if you (with a medium-slow speed) turn the reverb down it creates a kind of cool pitching up effect.

Killer last track, and let it play out the way it was made to be.

That sound is them using the Roll effect then gradually shotening the length of it over time.

I’m going with this

I quite like to finish with Mark Summers - Summers Magic and the end of Ice Cube’s - Better off dead sample

..then I like to piss on the punters from the stage.

lol, hilarious!

When ending my set I either let the track play out or echo freeze out near the end.

Oh you gotta play a killer track at the end. I will usually play “stand up” by the prodigy.and thank everyone for coming and tell em to be safe and watch out for cops.

Seriously - you just gotta play the most obscure, weird sounding, no-ones ever heard of track that you can find. As far away from the genre of your last track as possible. Country, Gospel, Psychadelic, Childrens TV themes, Choir - these are all good examples.

Leave them scratching their heads. I’m not joking.

…THEN piss all over 'em. :laughing:

i end most of my sets with this:

and some with this (modern day classic):

A local taxi company has an official club track which I play at the end of every set. It’s actually a badass track, and when people hear references to the city in the lyrics they’re like… “wtf?” Plus for the super drunk people it actually has the phone number of the taxi company in the chorus, so there’s no excuse for not getting home in one piece.

Always piss. Piss everywhere.

[this echoes a running joke we have on a Facebook DJ group im in. There is a piss heavy motif to everything posted. Every serious post eventually turns to pissing on or in something or someone]

Church.

Just, Church…
