    so you mean EQ-ing is more preferred? why?

    I always filter out most of the bass of the track that I’m going to drop, bringing it up gradually during the mix.

    so you use filter to reduce bass instead of the low eq?

    not to patronize you but please don’t trust beatport’s genre labeling at all. maybe 75% of stuff labeled deep house are not deep house.

    What’s the use of reverb? Is it only to make that in-a-cave sound or does it also aid mixing?

    personally i don’t like dropping and crossfader slammig, also if sometimes i do it… check this mix i’ve done, i did it as an exercise to learn smooth, subtle transitions:

    wow, I’ve seen your mix on dubstepforum. tracklist is a bit obvious but I like the mixing. thanks, you gave me an inspiration for smoothly mixing uk bass. could you give me some details about the software/hardware you were using?

    ok so what do you think is the essential effects that I should learn? I mostly play house and techno. (by “play” of course I mean in my room).

    So do you think I’m “qualified” to play out if I haven’t learned any trick/effect? I’m afraid I’ll sound flat.

    All above are good inputs but I’d like to add, watch the crowd too. If they’re really groovin to a track then there’s no reason to cut it short.

    to be frank I can’t see any correlation between recording gain and muddy sound, mate.

    is there any article or video of how and when to play effects? I can’t find any detailed ones.

    Other things you can do: Have a drink, check your phone, do a little bit of live remixing on the current track with FX.

    lol don’t check your phone, seriously it’s not a pretty sight to see.

    no I’m sure I chose that audio device. here’s the sample: http://soundcloud.com/user8679552/why-does-my-traktor-mix-have you’ll notice that it has no bass although the treble is pretty fine I guess.

    quite surprised david mancuso hasn’t been mentioned here. as for DJ’s whose mixing is not the best but the selection and flow more than make up for it, I’d say Daniel Wang and Move D.

    say I get the BPM matched, but the mix still sounds wrong. what’s the cause of it? to fix it I just have to nudge some, right? what if I turn off the BPM counter, how would I know that I don’t need to change the pitch and just nudge it? can a DJ trapped in an endless search of the perfect BPM when in fact what they need is just nudging the wheel? I know this sounds confusing but I hope you get the gist of it. thanks.
