Basic DJ terminology:
1, fine tuning
Just because the beat of two songs is right does not mean that the beat will always be accurate when they overlap. Occasionally, you should nudge the record with your left hand (speed up) or rub the turntable (speed down), and nudge or pull the pitch with your right hand to correct it.
2. Monitoring
The volume of headphones should not be too loud. You should be able to hear the music playing on the loudspeaker outside. Sometimes you have to switch between listening to the song to be played and the music being played, and turn the volume closer to eq to avoid being too abrupt.
3. The Lost Song (Flying Song)
The lost song is thrown at the end of the previous song or at some point after the cue point is captured. Usually, alternative rock doesn't pick it up, and the speed difference between the two songs is too great, but if the types are not combined, they will be lost.
