DJ Skill Sessions #51: Vocal House Slicer Routine

Check out how DJ Carlo Atendido uses the Slicer feature of the DDJ-SX3 and Serato DJ Pro to cut up a vocal acapella.

In this DJ Skill Sessions video, DJ Carlo Atendido makes use of an acapella and Serato DJ’s Slicer to mashup two vocal house tracks. Watch how he triggers the Slicer pads using a simple, syncopated pattern that adds a modern twist to a vibey classic house tune. Check out how he uses hot cues to jump back to parts of a song that he wants to emphasise, and how he uses echo and backspin (a favourite of his) to transition to another tune.

Watch this on YouTube.
