Pioneer DJ Opus Quad How to Set the Cross Fade Using the Touch Screen

Lesson Intermediate Stage 1: Your First Setup November 2023

Contents of the video

Pioneer DJ Opus Quad. You'll notice by the crossfade there are no switches how to set it according to how you like, whether it be through A or B. In this video I will explain how to do so. Channel 3, 1, 2 and 4. If we go to the screen we can see 3, 1, 2 and 4 directly above appropriate channels. What I can do now is press on deck 4 and I have the option of A through or B. You'll notice that the B is highlighted, there's a line underneath the B, that's because the crossfade is now set to side B, which is of course here. So generally what DJs do is they'll have the two right hand decks, or the two right hand channels sorry, on the right hand deck and of course the two on the left, on the left hand deck.

So we can see B on deck 2 and if I go to deck 4 we can see B. If I go to deck 1, A and deck 3 we'll go to A and that's it. It's as simple as that. Now if you do get confused and you're not quite sure, you should be able to see C, F, B, C, F, B, C, F, A, C, F, A. You should be able to see C, F, B, C, F, B, C, F, A, C, F, A. Channel A, channel A, B and B. Crossfade is basically a small way of showing you how the crossfade is set. And of course if you want to change it, just press on any highlighted deck and just by tapping the icon will give you the side that you want, A or B, or through. Hope that's a help. Practice and enjoy. Thank you.
