So, how fast can you match 2 tracks (in average)?

I'm somewhere between 10-20.

I voted 20-30. I can get them generally lined up pretty quick. It's spending that extra bit of time listening in the phones to make sure they are locked in that takes some extra time. Granted, I mix at home only, so god knows I'd probably trainwreck in a club dealing with delay and such.

20-30, but I'm very lazy and my match is usually only good for 15 seconds before I have to fix it anyway. I constantly touch the pitch slider and/or jog wheel during transitions.

Less than 10 if I need to, but the more time spent the tighter it is...

I'd say on average 20-30s. Sometimes it is like 5s but sometimes I'll take maybe a whole minute. I'm sure I could cue with the channel fader open and not trainwreck but it wouldn't be all that smooth either.

I take over 30sec. This is because I always want tracks to be perfectly matched. It also takes me about 20sec to listen to these tracks in my headphones to make sure that everything is perfectly synced.

10 or less for me. Beatmatching is such a joke.

10-20. I don't match them exactly though; I'd rather get them fairly close and adjust them while mixing into the track.

depends on the bpm difference between the tracks

i cheat and memorize exactly what % to increase per BPM increase on my cd decks. so its prolly less than 10 seconds.

Depends on the tracks
