Ableton Forum

Hi all,

After finally getting the hang of warping (thanks to the excellent tutorials at musicsoftwaretraining.com) I thought I'd have a go at doing a basic DJ set with some tracks I was familiar with. This was the result:

I'm looking to get some feedback on how I did with the song transitions and tempo adjustments. Sure it could probably be better but am I on the right track?

Cheers, Joel...

threw some comments up on soundcloud. DJ mixes in ableton shouldnt have to sound like DJ mixes IMO, so id recommend using the strengths of live like looping 4 bar sections and DJ type effects.
Also pay attention to the songs construction as they are made to be mixed, like building hooks and crashs introducing sections of the song.
Good 1st try though.

Thanks a bunch for your feedback anachroschism. Was just what I was after. Will see what I can come up with next.

try using more effects, go look for super luper or anything else done by tarekith

Have just checked it up, really interesting and to my mind you' could make it sound even better by adding some unusual elements, just a sort of making it unique
