DJ advise on using EQ, Bass mid and top in the mix

0:00 Another basic video on using the bass, mid and treble

Alright folks, another basic video on using the bass, mid and treble. Now this particular mixer first of all is from Cam, it's a KPM 1750 USB and I'm going to be using these two channels. Now I've set the deck ready on that side at the beginning of the track. What I've done on the other side, I've just set a cue point. That's churning, bang! That's where I'm going to bring the next track in. There. Right, now what I've done is I've listened to these two songs. There's a bit of a jump, so what I'm going to do, I'm going to do a basic initial mix of the two tracks, so they're both going to be up the two volumes. But as soon as that track kicks in, I'm going to wop that one down and hopefully you'll hear exactly why I'm doing that.

1:18 Let's just have a listen to the beginning first of all

Now prior to doing this mix, I would have made sure I beatmatched that one over there. Got it in beat, used my headphones, I can move it back and forwards through the song. I don't have to start it right at the beginning, play it all the way through. I can play it anywhere because 99% of tracks, modern day dance tracks, if they're 120 BPM at the beginning, they'll be 120 BPM at the end. So you don't have to worry about mixing the beginning or whatever. So what I've done, I've set that one ready at the point I want to bring it in. The first thing I'm going to do, I'm going to reduce the bass on that one over there and I'm going to highlight the mid a tiny bit. Now you'll understand why. Let's just have a listen to the beginning first of all. Now I want to get rid of that low sound. I want to highlight the middle bit and maybe a tiny bit of the treble.

1:51 Hopefully you'll hear and you'll be able to understand exactly what's

Now that's the sound I want to get. So what I'm going to do as well is as soon as that one kicks in, I'm going to wang the bass off there and bring that one out. So hopefully you'll hear and you'll be able to understand exactly what's going on. Watch here as well, any comments, bung them in with their comments and that kind of thing. Right, here we go. So bass off here, bass still on here. Mid up a tiny bit. Increase the treble on that side a little bit. Straight in. Bass up here, bass down there. Bring that one out. I could have brought that in slightly. Also a bit of a tutorial. Have fun, practice and enjoy. By the way, as ever, look in the description and I'll give you the names of these two tracks.
