I just bought the DJX 700 yesterday. I'd say it's a pretty good mixer for a beginner turntable dj. But I can't figure out how to get the bpm counters working right on it. Can anyone help?

you can press one of the buttons underneath each BPM counter in time with the music and it'll give you an approximate value. make sure you have each BPM counter SET on the right channel.

however the counter on the DJX700 is seriously crap in my opinion, and sometimes not even the bass LEDs are accurate. my advice, get lots of tape and tape it all over. better in the long run for sure.

I really can't sync any songs together, I don't know if it's me or the crappy gemini turntables

what you should do is put coins on top of the BPM counters and learn by ear and practice from there.

unless you are just trying to figure out how to use it and already know how to mix, then n/m

oh and sell those geminis and get some techs

I'm 13 I can't really afford technics next year i'll be able to get some when I get a job

granted, they aint the best deck in the world (there are worse) but the gemini's will be just fine to learn on, and when you eventually buy higher end decks (note the lack of the word 'technics') you will find things much easier, and your learning will be accellerated.

just ignore the beat counter. if you are going to use one, it at least needs to be accurate, and by the sounds of it this thing aint accurate. it is always bes to do it by ear, at the very most use it as a rough guide to quickly get your pitch fader to around the right area (again, doing this by ear will come with time)
