Connections
To mix with an analog mixer, the DJ connects:
- Turntables’/CD players’ outputs to DeeJay TRIM 4&6 audio inputs 1 to 4,
- DeeJay TRIM 4&6 outputs 1 to 4 to the inputs on their analog DJ mixer,
- Headphones and a microphone to the analog DJ mixer,
- An amplifier or amplified speakers to the analog DJ mixer’s outputs.
In this way, the DJ:
- Controls the playback of computer audio tracks on their turntables or CD players,
- Mixes using their analog mixer’s cross-fader, volume faders and EQ knobs,
- Previews music tracks using headphones plugged into their analog mixer.
Advantages of timecode DJ mixing
1. Easy to learn for advanced DJs: DJs who have their own DJ gear (CD players/turntables/analog mixer) don’t need to learn how to use new DJ gear to mix computer audio files: they mix on the CD players, turntables and analog mixer they already know, and they control the computer audio files with the same gear (CD players/turntables/analog mixer) as if the tracks were on CDs or vinyl records.
2. Highly accurate timecode controls: vinyl records (12" records) or jog wheels on good CD players (8" on Pioneer CDJ 1000 MK3) have a larger diameter than the jog wheels on computer DJ mixing controllers, thereby providing higher accuracy for scratching.
3. Switch instantly between computer audio files and standard audio CDs and records. The DJ keeps on mixing using the same equipment, whatever the source of the music: convenient and easy.
Timecode DJ mixing gives the DJ instant access to tons of audio files stored on their computer, instead of having to carry around lots of heavy boxes of vinyl records and CDs.
