Your course, week by week.
Mirrors the course syllabus: month 1 on Traktor/Rekordbox, month 2 on CDJs and DJM mixers. Each week covers what class teaches, adds one thing beyond it, and has missions worth 150 XP each.
- In class · month 1 · Traktor / Rekordbox
- Interface of Rekordbox/Traktor and digital DJ structure
- Basic 2-channel mixing
- Music in 4/4: 4 beats make a bar, the 1 is the downbeat, and the kick usually marks it. Learn to feel the 1 before anything else.
- Digital DJing = a library (browser) feeding decks, which feed a mixer, which feeds the master output.
- Two-channel mixing: start track B on a bar's 1, match its tempo, fade it in with the channel fader while EQ-ing out its bass.
- Your controller mirrors the screen. Learn where each knob lives so your eyes can stay on the waveforms.
Beyond the course. Learn the signal path by heart: gain → EQ → filter → fader → crossfader → master. Every mixer on earth follows it.
