I cue blood on my hands in 32 bars after that eerie up beat sound starts .. mixes pretty well in a long blend

OK another question for you experienced DJ's... will it be a lot harder mixing 33 rpm records ? I was about to purchase a few LP's and i'm sure i've heard people mention that it's a lot more difficult when mixing a 45rpm tune with another 33rpm tune. Can anyone confirjm/advise me on this as i want a lot of the tunes off Dubsteppa's Delight.... :e:

Nice 1

I dont find it that different atall, just watch your levels because 33's are quieter that 45's. Maybe if you nudge your tunes alot watch out because a nudge goes further on a 33 than a 45(i think? i may be bullshitting), to avoid that just ride that pitch!

33s do tend to be quieter but every record is different so it's possible that you can be mixing a loud 33 into a quiet 45 - it all depends


I find that I don't get as much precision with pitch control @ 33 rpm ... so moving the slider a little bit gives you more pitch variance than the same move if it was made @ 45 rpm ...

Serious you guys have been a massive help... i'll hit peeps up with a mix when the skills are firmly locked down! The more i hear mixes of 2 tunes i know inside out the more i understand what's required. Once again PROPS of huge proportions to everyone who#s chipped into this thread :D
