  Making a stellar DJ mix shouldn’t be locked to having CDJs and a mixer. In this video I’ll show you how to make them in Ableton Live by stitching songs together- warping tracks, locking them to the grid, BPM automating, adjusting EQ, gain, filter, and adding effects between different ...

I had a chance to sit down with the MODX and get to explore its capabilities. In this video I’ll tell you what I like and what I don’t like about it, as well as put it to use in a real-world studio scenario by synthesizing some sounds & using ...
