We’re close to the weekend which means it’s time for our second Throwback Thursday tutorial hosted by Ean Golden. Last week Ean showed you how to pitch ride on turntables to match the BPM of two records. Today Ean will show you how to create a beat repeat effect using 2 records. No software effects or mixer effects required, all you need is two copies of the same record.
Check back in next week for more Throwback Thursday Tutorials! Have something you’d like to learn that’s a DJ skill from the past? Let us know in the comments.
Another effect you can do is run two of the same records starting in full sync and make tiny adjustments up and down with the pitch on one deck, creating a really cool metallic effect simular to gating done digitally.
This technique is actually called “strobing”
These “throwback” tutorials are awesome !!!
Love it, but the redness sounds harsh…
Love the breast cancer awareness cartridge on the left.
This is Delaying Beats.. never heard about Beat repeat, sounds good though for the trick!
Any way doesn’t matter.
You don’t need to have two of the same records… any other record will do if you going to flow between two beat patterns on 1/4 1/2 3/4 1/1 and so forth!
I used to like doing this – you can get a nice phase effect as well using this technique.
Maybe a Throwback Thursday on not redlining the mixer….? 😉
Lmao, good one!
Maybe it will be good idea to put turntables in “battle mode” before try to do jugglin’…
He’s not juggling.
I was talking for the next vid…
Ah my mistake 🙂
Don’t excuse yourself, I should explain myself better next time. 😉
I’d like to see a beatjuggle-battle between djtechtools and djworxs owner. They both got enormous skills behind the decks. One has to use a mixer with cromacaps and the other a mixer with the other caps…
Nice tutorial Mr Golden, it remembers me that beat repeating and beat juggling was also “cash repeat” when i was buying records 15 years ago 😀
