| I do recall it took around 2 weeks to get things under control on a pioneer CDJ100s system. But it took me a further 6 months or so before I was truly confident and didn't really have to worry thinking about it. And when I first tried vinyl, it took around 20mins to convert over. Then I realised how much easier and interactive it is to mix with vinyl and I was hooked. |

USe just the pitch control to adjust the speed. Untill it's so close you only need to touch the platter to slow it down a bit.
The faster you move the pitch fader around, the better you'll get at hearing where it should be. |

| Ive been doin it for a about a few weeks now, and my only problem is I get 70% of my tunes beatmatched, and after 20-30 secs they start to drift a little. Thats very annoying, because i do not have that much time left to mix. |

They shuddent drift on good tables
either that or there outa phrase, shuddent be drifting too much on good turnatables if they are beatmatched though |

| If they drift after 20 secs all that means is that they are not "fully" beat matched |

| it took me about a week to get basic beat matching down. i'm 7 months into it n i still mess up here n there but that's usually when i haven't given myself enough time to catch the beat n try to instead throw it in, ride it and match it in real time while their both in. i'm still working on being able to do that as well as i'd like to get it. i saw Frankie Bones spin a while ago n just watching him..my jaw dropped. he rarely used the headphones, he'd throw a track in without pre-matching the beat n then just use the pitch to catch n ride it.. h wouldn't touch the record OR platter n would barely ever up or drift.. i was like wtf? damn..now thats what you call technique. one day, hopefully, i'll be able to do that. :) |

It took me a while to learn but now after a year it comes very quickly to me! Most times I'll listen to see how long I can ride it for before I mix. If it goes off quick, I know to adjust if not, I'll go with it and adjust when the time comes (if need be).
Just keep practicing, it will come to you!!! Practice is the key! |
