Dj help, Using the Bass , Mid and top lesson 2

0:00 This is lesson two on using the bass, mid and treble

Alright folks, this is lesson two on using the bass, mid and treble. Bit of feedback there because we've got at the moment, I've got a microphone plugged into the mixer and then straight out the mixer into the input of the camera. Okay, so hopefully we'll get a bit of a better sound quality here. And the lead, where is it? Lead there, that's the one going into the... Camera, right, so I've got a memory like a spatula. Right, what we're going to do for you now, we're going to play two records. One is Moloko's Sing It Back, which is there. It's the Moose Teeth Feel Love mix with a bit of a remix of Donna Summer in as well. So it's almost like a triple mash-up here and we have also Johnny Corporate back on called Sunday Shouting and Defected. So excuse the gladdering of beats because I'm doing lots of things at once. Here we go.

2:32 The melody from Jolly Corporate, with very little bassline

Check it out, we'll try it. Slow that down a bit. As you can see at the moment, bass is flat, mid treble, okay? We're going to get a bass line in a minute with Johnny Corporate and I'll knock the bass line off to Moloco, but there isn't any yet. Now soon, we're going to get a bass line at Moloco and we're going to bring the bass line in and take the bass line out of Johnny Corporate. I'll knock the cutsy bass line from Johnny Corporate so you know which one I mean. There you go, it's gone. Well, virtually. Okay, you can hear it in the background slowly. Coming? So we're going to slowly bring this one in and take this one out. And that sound is that. So we're getting this... The melody from Jolly Corporate, with very little bassline.

5:06 Do you want something to eat?

What do you want, darling? Do you want something to eat? I'll get you something in a minute, okay? In a minute. One minute. What, you don't want chocolate? Something healthy. Like a chocolate apple. You're not? You mean you don't like chocolate and sweets? Oh my goodness. I will tell you now, ladies and gentlemen, if ever my daughter stops eating chocolate, I will eat my hat. I shall speak to you soon. Take care.

Thank you very much folks. Say goodbye. The tree and the wind was howling. And the captain said to his mate, come here mate, I'll tell you a story. And this is how the story began. Thank you folks, bye bye. There they are clean by the way. Right, so hopefully you've got the general idea of what I've just done. We're knocking, chopping and changing should I say bass lines from one song to the other. We're knocking, chopping and changing the mids and occasionally the treble. So it's a case of using your head. If vocals come in one and vocals come in on the other and you don't want the vocals to work together, you have one in and one out. If bass lines are there... Both bass lines, you can have one in and one out and just mess around with them. It's all about practice, it's all about testing things out and just experimenting, okay? So practice, go for it and enjoy. A good way of practicing is, as I've done, with two records and just play them continually through. Practice with two records and chop and change and have a bit of fun, okay? Enjoy, the next lesson is all about volume control, okay? You'll see, speak to you soon, bye-bye.
