I am quite new to DJing, but I would say I have most of the basics down. One thing that I am curious about involves the speed of the current track playing. Consider the following scenario:
I am currently playing track A at 128 BPM and I am ready to mix in track B at 126 BPM. I beat match, mix in track B, fade out track A, so now track B is the only track playing. However, because of beat matching with track A, I adjusted track B to 128 BPM. My question is, do I return track B to 126 BPM while it is playing, or do I just let track B play at 128 BPM? If the proper technique is to return track B to its normal 126 BPM, then what must I do, when adjusting the speed using the pitch fader, to change the speed without the crowd noticing the whacky sound of the track slowing down?
Thanks,
/Brett
