Trick with DJM-800 reverse loop video 1

Lesson Intermediate Stage 6: Performance Technique November 2009

Contents of the video

Okay, so what is happening there? Now I'm going to do this video twice. The first time I'm going to do it is now where basically you're going to have the audio from the speakers directly into the camera. The next time I do it, I'm going to go directly from the mixer into the camera so you can get the stereo sound. Now what I've done, I've gone from one CD player from the right-hand side of the CD player into this channel here, channel 4. I've gone from the left side of the CD player into this channel here. So if I was to play the CD... As normal. That now is just coming from that speaker, that side's coming from that speaker. Now this is what I did. I started the music, I had the beat effects to reverse roll and I set this to number 3, to channel 3. I then started the effect.

As soon as I started, I switched this from 3 to 4. Now, by some bizarre, strange chance, what's happened is that the effect has gone from either side. It's panned from right to left, right to left. So what I was able to do then is take that effect from these two channels and put that onto channel 2. Instead of being on these two channels, the effect has gone from here, but it's been able to pan like so. And then I can in my own time bring these two back in. That's exactly what happened there. What I'm going to do now, I'm going to pause the camera here and do near enough exactly the same thing. Hopefully, hopefully, cross fingers, you'll get stereo sound so you'll be able to hear exactly what's going on as well. Practice and enjoy.
