► SCRIPT:
When you download a new song, they look pretty plain...

Technically, we can DJ with these songs no problem. But if you’re a beginner sometimes you just don’t know where to mix in, and mix out of a song.

This is where cue points come in, what they are is this:

They are control points on songs which you make, and they give you the ability to control and manipulate specific song sections.

So let’s say we put a cue point here, we can then activate, and play with that section like this, this or this. It’s totally up to you.

To make cue point, simply click a button here, or press anywhere here. To delete one you can either click it here, or press shift and that cue point which you want to delete.

Now cue points have a ton of uses, but my favorite thing to do with them is use them as visual guides for songs


So when I download a song, I put at least 3 cue points:

1. Where I should mix in (intro)
2. Where the song begins
3. Where I should mix out

Let me show you an example:

So here’s a song I just downloaded. Let’s load it up.

Now I prefer to mix in with a 32 beat intro, so the first cue point will go here. How do I know? Let’s count…..

So the beginning of the song is here. This is where I’m going to place my second cue point which I will use as a visual guide. It’s exactly 32 beats from our first cue point.

My third cue point is going to be here, because this is the outro section of the song. I know this because from here on out, there is nothing but beats.

Keep in mind that, we can put a total of 8 cue points so don’t be shy in cue pointing your songs.
