It took me about 6 to 8 months to get it down. At first I had to do trial and error. Correct one way and if it sounds worse then go the other way. And I was using the platter to pitch bend instead of riding the pitch which is way better.

Out of interest, just noticed your 'Ten City' remark beneath your avatar. Have you seen the History Of House series, where in one of them Marshall Jefferson exaplins how Ten City got their name?

He's a funny guy!

At the time I was really into numerology and things of that nature. Ten stands for perfection. Ten city is a place where everything is perfect

Originally posted by Zild I slip cue the song on beat. And ride the pitch fader to beatmatch it and then to keep it locked as I'm mixing. Takes a few seconds to get it close enough to bring into the mix. I can immediately hear which way the cued track needs to be adjusted no trial and error.

That's how I do it.

It's just trial and error at first, then you quickly learn which one needs speeding up and which needs slowing down, and once you have that down you just ride the pitch fader. I can beatmatch (to the point I only have to make minor adjustments) in about 5 seconds.


Jarv - what is that series you're talking about? - Jefferson is a legend and I've never heard of that series?

Here you go
