Pioneer DJM900 nexus trick. Reverse roll

0:00 Where's my hair gone?

Alright ladies and gentlemen, where's my hair gone? Here she is, Miss Diamond, how are you doing Claudia? Fine, and you? Oh we're good. Alright, we're just having a bit of a mess around here with the DJ 900, CDJ 2000, not the Nexus.

It is Friday tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday, the 8th and, is it no, 7th and 8th, what date is it today? It is 8th. 8th, so 9th and 10th of March, we're going to be doing the course, and we're going to be giving a few skills, tips and tricks etc.

0:52 That's really cool

Hold that for a second Claudia, something I want to show you that's really cool. What we've got is we've got the DJ 900 on reverse roll, and what I'm going to do is, I'm just going to, again this is very random and very rough, but, reverse roll means that whatever is recorded, is then recorded by the DJ 900 and is reversed. But imagine what would happen or what you think would happen if we used the CDJ 2000 and we reversed the track and then recorded what we were reversing. So what should happen is the reverse roll, should then reverse what was going forward, and then put forward what was going reverse. Yeah, mind boggles. So what I'm going to do, is something like this.

Ah we're on 3, sorry go to 4. Sorry I hadn't set the right selector here so we'll do that again.

2:18 It's actually recording it or has recorded it, reverse roll and forwar

Alright now again that's really really rough but it proves a point and if this was done correctly what the mixer can do, is it's recording exactly what I did there, but of course it's not recording it all in the reverse roll format. It's actually recording it or has recorded it, reverse roll and forward roll. So again this is a little tip and if you do it correctly that could sound pretty bad. Imagine having let's say an acapella, if you reversed rolled the acapella of course it would go backwards, but if you then edited the acapella, so it goes forward and backwards, and we'll probably try this in another video, then the acapella would be completely chopped up. So again another little tip, we're using the DJM-900 Nexus, the CDJ-2000

And I will say practice and enjoy from Switzerland with Claudia Miss Diamond. Say bye. Bye.
