Best Way To Set Up A DJ Set

Post by GDOGG » Sat Jan 29, 2011 4:33 am

Started Djing in live with a launchpad and a pretty simply midi mixer and just want to know the best ways to use my setup to dj live. I was going to start with the track A & B with tracks representing the decks which seems pretty standard but I want to know how to do more than just slide the cross fader from A to B and maybe tweak the EQ every now and then. I've been splitting my tracks into the various loops but then I'm not sure where to go with that? Also what effects etc are good for live djing

any suggestions
cheers
