Hey all, I have a question about transitioning...if you have beatmatched between 2 songs (let's say both at 128bpm) and you want to fade into another song after they are finished but it's 140 bpm, what is the best way to do that without having to beatmatch that song too? Would be a boring set if all songs were 128bpm right?

Meet closer to the middle. Bump up the tempo of both songs to 133 or so

Not necessarily.

I mainly do 120-135 and transition to 70 sometimes

Don't forget about keylock, haha. For me, the next track would be ~130 bpm. Then keep finding faster songs until I reached the 140 mark. IMO 128 to 140 is kind of a big jump but that's just me.

Agree with LiquidFusion as well. Instead of making the jump in one transition, move gradually over the course of a few songs
