6. 9. Switching from one piece to another
The art of mixing consists of preparing the next piece while a given piece is being played. When the piece being played reaches its end, the DJ switches from one piece to the other progressively using the cross fader, which regulates the volume of the two decks. Your DJ Console allows you to work with both digital and analog audio sources. This section will give you some practical examples of how you can switch from one musical piece to another and from one audio source to another. The LED underneath the audio source select button is on, indicating that Deck A is in Computer mode. The Bass, Medium and Treble knobs have been adjusted for the perfect sound mix with the piece that is playing. The cross fader is pushed completely to the left, so only what is being played on Deck A will be heard by the audience. Let's say that the next track you want to play is also an MP3 file. While the track on Deck A is playing, set the headphone output selector on the DJ Console Mk2's front face to the Deck B position so that you can monitor Deck B (the right-hand deck) while you are getting your next track ready. Press the audio source select button on Deck B so that the LED is on, indicating that Deck B is also in Computer mode. Assign the musical piece of your choice to Deck B and then you're ready to go. As the piece on Deck A is nearing its end, start moving the cross fader to the right at the same moment you launch playback on Deck B. You can adjust the Bass, Medium and Treble knobs to achieve the perfect gain for the piece being played on Deck B, if you haven't done so already. Naturally, there are many ways to switch from one piece to another: you can move the cross fader User Manual 13/24

slowly, create back-and-forth effects, etc. Once the cross fader is pushed completely to the right, only what is being played on Deck B will be heard by the audience. At this point you can either set the headphone output selector to the Mix position to hear what is being played on Outputs 1/2 on your headphones, or temporarily remove your headphones and just listen to the music over the speakers in the room. The following diagrams give you an idea of how the Bass, Medium and Treble knobs and cross fader are adjusted for the procedure described above. The Bass, Medium and Treble knobs on Deck A are adjusted for the perfect sound mix.
