you can't mix because you touch yourself at night.
j/k.. take a break, or try a slightly different kind of music to change it up.. i.e. trance -> house, etc...
or mix when hammered... <-the most fun.. |

| It's normal, and I'm sure there is nothing wrong with you. Some nights I'm dead on from the first vinyl till the last. Other nights I go to my practice room, trainwreck half a dozen times, shake my head and go have a beer. However, the good nights outweigh the bad nights, and no matter how poorly I perform I can't make myself give up mixing. It's just too damned fun and relaxing! |

I'm screwing up on my cdj100s because of always having to adjust the pitch because its 0.1+-, have to adjust it so much its hard to get a perfect clean transition |
.1 pitch, ouch. Id have a hard time accepting .05 on the 800s much less .1. |

| This used to happen to me my first year or so of mixing. |

Interestingly enough, I know more than 1 pro who adjusts the pitch resolution on whatever CDJ 1000's they're playing on to .05% because they actually prefer it there.

| .1 resolution is definitely enough to pull consistent smooth mixes |

| Meh, this happens to everyone. There always a period where you just can't mix or play an instrument. Take a day or 2 off and get back at it. Sometimes you are also awesome at it and don't know why, it's weird, happens to me sometimes and then the next day you're normal again. |

Do what I do... When Im practicing and I cant mix for , I pop in a Paul Oakenfold live set. When I hear the horse races going on over at Union Station, then I get this big huge cheesy smile on my face and say to self...
"SELF!, YOU CAN DO IT!"
