Thanks, DY. So it's best to drop it in quick you think, rather than try fading one out while you fade the other in?

Thanks, DY. So it's best to drop it in quick you think, rather than try fading one out while you fade the other in?
im not saying it is either.
i think it is good to be able to both, rather than having the same style all the time.
depends on the flow of the mix.
a lot of trance mixes the old school ones, would drop the next bass in very quickly.
and some would be so seamless you couldnt really tell when the next tune had come in.
i cant stop the eschaton
Thanks again, DY. I have another question if I may.
When I see DJs live or on Youtube, especially guys like the Libs or Sterling Moss or Henry, they're doing something all the time. Their hands are constantly moving. For me, I'm just trying to get the tunes to blend nicely at the moment and I'm having trouble with that, but I guess my question is, what are those guys doing that I should be aspiring to do at some point in the very distant future, cos they're clearly doing a lot more than just blending the tunes nicely!
i dunno, when you are totally comfortable with something being well blended, you would probably have confidence to make more dramatic changes etc
getting the next tune eq'ed in properly etc before bringing it in
but shit i dont know, im pretty low level myself.
they're just creating best sound out of those tunes at that moment using the tops mids and bass
i cant stop the eschaton
Thanks again, DY. With regard to my original bass-swapping query, I think my problem may be the mids clashing. Practise is what's needed, I guess -- and maybe a copy of DJing for Idiots!
It's all on the computer so there's no excuse for it, but I think you're right, the tunes were beatmatched but they weren't, er, 'section matched', so it was sounding messy when I was trying to swap over. Does that sound right?
