Pioneer CDJ-1000mk3... Making loops and recording to hot cue

0:01 The track I'm using is Enzyme Black, a track entitled Take It

Alright folks, now this is a bit of a demonstration and a tutorial on the 1000 Mark III and how to set loops by using the hot cues here. Now the track I'm using is Enzyme Black, a track entitled Take It. I've already set three loops but I'll show you how to do it. Let's just have a listen to those three loops first. Okay, three loops. What do we do? First of all we need to go into record mode so all of the hot cues are now red. What I'm going to do is, I'm just going to go out of this particular loop and I'm going to show you how to get another loop. So first of all, when you're in loop, press loop, re-loop, exit. Okay, so on the count of one, I'm going to hit in. I'll count as well so you can hear exactly what's going on. 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4.

1:18 One, two, three, four

One, two, three, four. One, two, three, four. One, two, three, four. Now it's slightly off, you can hear that. How do we get it so it's not off? I'm going to hit out adjust. Move the jog wheel slightly. Too much. Now doing this, you'll get it with a bit of practice. Okay, what I'm going to do now, again bearing in mind this is just a demonstration as well, I'm going to set this loop to say C. So all I need to do... Let's hit C. 1, 2, 3, 4. There you go. Press record mode. Now these three guys are in amber. So I've now got three loops. And at any time I can get out of the loops as well. I'll show you. So have a listen. Okay, let's say I want to get out of this loop. All I do is press re-loop exit. I'm out of that loop. If I want to go back into a different one, just press one of the hot cues. Re-loop exit. Back into a loop.

Reloop Exit. There you go. I'll put a link in the description to this track, to the website. Enzyme Black, take it. So I hope that's been a help. Practice and enjoy.
