Think you can mix great? Then try mixing old-school:
1. Mix only using vinyl
2. On your mixer, mix ONLY with the channel faders. No crossfader or EQ's AT ALL.
3. For cueing, cue using the one ear on/one ear off method. Do NOT cue more than one channel at a time EVER in the headphones, and do not use split-cue.
4. Try switching cue ears.
I've been trying to do this to get my beatmaching even tighter without "checking" my mixes by cueing in the master. This is what it's like to spin on a Bozak or Rane MP-2016 (not the A model, and without the EQ expansion).

Damn that's how I mix anyway except I do use the EQs to clean it up a little bit, but to me the EQs are really just an extension of the upfaders.

Please do... One of the things I really appreciate about this part of TA is whenever you, Freak, Nem, Tony, or anyone else throw up some interesting exercise to try out, it's seriously improved my mixing a hundred fold...
Keep up the good work, and thanks again... I like it when the DJ Booth is like DJ School...
It's all about the beatmatching using the beat from the tip of the needle... No headphones... You got the the mains playing out... match the faint bass beat from the tip of the needle with whats playin out...
