Mixxx Assignment 8: scratching




In this assignment  learned how to scratch using mixxx. The first thing I did was choose a song.Then I chose parts it  the song where I think it would sound good at. I did this like three or four times int the song.Scratching allows you to slow the tempo and voice of the song. This also allows  you to speed the song up too. As you will hear in my recording below.

Mixxx Assignment 7 : pitch control slider





I actually had fun messing with the pitch controller. I chose my favorite parts in this song that I liked. Then I moved the pitch controller up and down on different parts of this song. this control makes the song go to high pitch to low pitch. That is how I made this recording below.

Mixxx assignment 6:FX




I picked my favorite parts int the song. Then on one part i put the LFO all the way down, the depth in the middle, and the delay all the way down. Basically on each favorite part made a different FX. The depth knob changes the depth in the song. The LFO changes the voice in the song. And the DELAY changes i think everything.

Mixxx assignment 5


While I was making the recording I decided to start with the high and the low all the way down. then i chose a specific spot in the song to turn up the low knot. After that I turn the low knot down and chose a specific spot in the song to turn up the high knot. The high knot changes the higher pitch sound, the mid changes the middle pitch sound, and the low changes the lower pitch sound.

mixx assighnment 3: beatmatching




I made the beats by doing the following. First I picked two songs that had almost the same bpm. then I put them in two sperate decks. After that I pressed the SYNC button on the left side so that the beat onth right would match the beat on the left. I SYNC the tempi so both songs can have the same bpm or tempi.
