DJ Mixing Tutorial using Traktor Pro #1 Techno

This video will help you improve your mixing skills as a DJ by allowing you to follow a full mix in realtime. You can see every action taken to create smooth seamless professional mixing.

The video is annotated throughout explaining what is happening at each point to help you understand and then apply to your own mixes.

This tutorial will help you understand and apply phase mixing demonstrating when to start your mix to ensure the breakdowns of both tracks align providing an opportunity to transition the bass.

It will also touch on more advanced techniques such as double drops and using the tools at your disposal to accentuate crescendos more aggressively adding interest and excitement to your mixes.

My channel is full of mixes of many different genres of underground music using the same strategies demonstrated in this tutorial. I also plan to add more tutorials over time, subscribe to be in the know when they drop.
