Hey guys

I am new to DJing and just bought myself a New DJ setup. 2 x Pioneer CDJ350's and a Numark M4 mixer.

I was hoping that someone could answer some questions that I have about beat matching. I just wanted to check that I've got the correct method of doing the beat matching.

For now I am using two copies of the same tune to practice. doing transitions and so on, until I get confident to movie on to two different tunes at a time. The tune is Deadmau5 - Not Exactly. I have this song loaded on both Decks.

I have a few questions that would help me out if they where answered and explained to me. It would make it much easier.

1) On what phrase of the song would I start to beat match ?? does it matter what phrase it is ??

2) Where is the best time to begin beat matching so that when the outro of the tune playing out loud starts I can have the song matched up and make the transition, as to still here the majority of the cued track live through the speakers. ? Would it be say about 1 minute before the beginning of the outro phsae, say 2 phrases - (64 beats - 16 bars) ??? But if I do this the tune that I bring in will be half over already, and I would only hear half of it through my speakers ??? I am very confused here !!

3) If I have beat matched the 2 songs together and then I re-cue the track back to the first beat. Can I bring it in on the first down beat of the outro, without having to beat mach again ?? so that I can concentrate on the transitions.?

Any Help would be awesome
