Pioneer WEGO4 and Wedj App Key Lock and Setting the Speed for the Pitch
Contents of the video
Alright guys, first of all the tuning you're listening to is by The Soul Architect. It's from Karmic Power Records. There will be info on this track in the description. We have in front of us the Pioneer WeGo 4 and also we've got the Pioneer WeDJ app and I'm running that on my iPad Mini. In this video I'm going to show you how you can change the feel of a track by making sure it is either in or out of what's known as key lock, sometimes known as master tempo. And also how you can change how much you want to increase or decrease the speed of the track. So on the app to the right hand side of the left turntable and on the right hand turntable it's the right hand side of the right turntable. On the right hand side if you look at a clock it's around about the half past 10 or 10 o'clock position roughly. We have a small icon that looks like a musical note. I'm going to press that. That's highlighted in red now.
I'm now going to increase the speed of the track and the pitch, the key of the track will stay the same. Now I'm going to decrease and the track is slowing down but the key, the music of the track isn't changing. I'm now going to press that again. It's now not highlighted in red. Now have a listen. Not only am I increasing and decreasing the speed, I'm also making the sound of the track rise as I move the pitch towards me and lower as I move the pitch away from me. Now above that icon we have the setting where we can increase or decrease the speed of the track by using the pitch. So we can go from. Either the wide feature which is 100% down to plus or minus 6, 10 or 16. Now to give you an easy explanation on what that's for, if you set it to 10%, let's say for example, the track playing is 100 BPM, if you move the pitch all the way towards you as far as it will go, the track will increase by 10%, meaning the track will no longer be 100 BPM.
It will be 110 BPM. If you move it away from you, it will no longer be 100 BPM from the center point, it will be 90 BPM. Exactly the same with plus or minus 6%, 16 and of course the wide feature which is very, very bizarre and also great for effects. Okay, hope that's been a help. Don't forget we're using the Pioneer WeGo 4 and the Pioneer WeDJ app. There will be info on the players to the app and of course Karmic Power Records in the description. Practice and enjoy, thank you.
