DJ How to Hide a Dodgy Sounding Loop

Lesson Intermediate Stage 6: Performance Technique November 2019

Contents of the video

Alright, first of all, the tune I'm using is by Agency. It's called Damn 2. It's the bass toy remix. It's actually just one cut I'm using in this video from Underground February 2019 CD Pool. Alright, so I'm going to be very picky here. This video really is sort of for the intermediate to advanced DJ who is very picky on how their loops sound. Let's press play. I've formed a loop. There. That's where the loop starts and finishes. Okay, so how do we hide? How do we conceal that loop? Have a listen to this.

Very simply, all I've done is I've added a tiny bit of echo a fraction of a second before the start and the end of the loop come in and then just take away the echo once, of course, the beginning and end of the loop has finished. So what you're doing is, in a way, you're sort of concealing that tiny little hiccup in the loop. Hope that's a help. Practice and enjoy. Thank you. Here we go.
