ok im convinced that its not soo much my beatmatching that is too balme as is the overlapping of the bass on both tracks argh is there anyway to get over this fundemental dilema :/?

well, when you beatmatch if the beatmatch is 'real' accurate then the beats cancel each other out and it sounds dodgy (I could xplain some physics about it, but its not important right now...)

But some tunes can get away with both bass's going like a mfer, and some can't, have u tried using the kill on the eq for the low freqs? Or just reducing the bass a bit? This should help.

Well, if the SOUND of the bass is different on two tracks, and you haev a set of clear, tight, detailed headphones that lets you tell the difference between the bass, than listening to those differences would help a lot... also, with those same headphones, if they don't 'stretch out' the sound of the bass, that means that the extra, end overlap of the sound isn't as great as it is with the DJ standard

thats why you mix on a 32beat transition....so on ever 32 beat you do your major eq transitioning .... so you dont get that bassline problem ... and u have to know your tracks well too
qwertyu
yeah if you've got a kill mixer, it will be allright.

just put the bass back on again when the mixing is finished.:cool:
