Virtual Reality DJ Lessons via Tribe 2 Tracks in and out of Beat

0:02 Today is what it sounds like

Alright Ozan, Jonathan here. What I'd like to show you today is what it sounds like with two tracks in beat, but then also two tracks out of beat, okay? Sounds good. Alright, so I've got two tracks, different tracks on each turntable. What I'm going to do now is press play on the left deck. I'm going to wait a little while, and then out of beat, I'm going to press play on the right hand turntable, but can you notice I don't have the sync engaged? Sync is off. I see that. Okay, so let's go. Let's press play.

Now what I'm going to do now is press play at a random position in this track.

Yeah, it's pretty wobbly. Okay. Pretty out of sync. Let me bring the volumes down. What does that sound like to you? It sounds like a galloping. It sounds like a train wreck, as they say. It does. It sounds like an absolute train wreck. Okay, let's put the volumes about there. So I'm going to press Q on the left side and Q on the right side. This time, I'm going to press sync. Okay, now we've got sync engaged, so I'm going to repeat the process. Press play on the left, and then press play on the right. And I'd like you to tell me... I'd like you to tell me what it sounds like. Are you good to go? I'm good to go. Thank you. Yep. Okay, here we go.

1:43 On the left-hand side, I'm going to speed this up

Tight. Tight, tight, tight. That's good.

Okay, that's how it should sound. Yeah. But again, it's good to use sync, but it's also very good to use your ear and try and keep it in beat by just using your ear. Now, I'm going to demonstrate that now. So on the left-hand side, I'm going to speed this up. Okay? Gotcha. So now, the track on the left... It's looking about 129.7 BPM. Mm-hmm. Now, what I'm going to do, I'm going to press play on the left, then I'm going to press play on the right after about four bars, and to begin with, you'll hear it being out of time, but I'm going to hover over the pitch, and I'm going to move the pitch until it is in time. Okay? So I'm going to do this by just using my ears and not the sync. Okay? Awesome. Let's give it a go.

So let's put the volume up on the left. I'm going to put the volume up on the right. Let's press play on the left, and I'm going to count four bars, and then bring the right-hand side in. Here we go.

2:52 You can hear it's a bit faster

Yeah, it's a bit faster. You can hear it's a bit faster. All right, this is cool.

Okay. I'm going to press play now. Here we go. Two, and... Wow, that was fast. Nicely done, man.

Nice.

It went up a little bit, but it did get back in beat. Yeah. Okay, let's cue that one up. That was great. You got the applause in the background, too.

All right, listen. I hope that's been a help, and then I'm going to finish off with my saying, practice and enjoy. Practice and enjoy. Love it. Fist bump. Fist bump. Pow!

Pleasure as always. Yeah, nice one.
