Ben Bristow, head DJ tutor at Point Blank - the world's best music production and DJ school - bring you five essential DJ tips, tricks and cheats that could make all the difference between a killer set and death on the decks.
Using CDJs on a +/- 6 % range (they default to 10%) allows for much more accurate beat matching. What's more, you can cheat by tipping the bpm between two different bpm values to create a basic mix without even listening to the track.
Although we should stress, we don't recommend this over real beat-matching!
