Pitch bending

Could someone please give me some in-depth information on pitch bending as a mixing technique? I wanna master this skill, for they say it's a successful route to seamless mixing.

So far I've managed to learn the very basics of it, but I can't seem to get the pitch set exactly at the right speed. How do you guys do it?

Erm, you'd have to train your ears through hard work.. which means you've got to practise, practise, and practise. We all learnt the hard way..

Well I got a jog dial for that on my CDJ-100S
What I do is i put the 2 tracks playing, and by spinning the dial I bend the pitch forward or backward as needed.
Then according to that I correct the pitch with the slider, stop the track
and start to play it again, until they are matched and then you can mix them perfectly.
