people, please … *don’t* do this!

hehehe just kidding, it is a cool trick, but please don’t overuse this effect to shout your name over every track. Please? ;)

Superb trick!
Well, of course, any trick is cool only if not abused, but this one is genius..
thanks Ean

Somehow that drop reminded me of an old Commodore64 -game… “A new visitor? Stay for a while. Stay – forever!” :)

remember, in a pinch a second pair of headphones can work as a mic.

I Have a DREAM…
To do this live with a good mic, plugged in the external soundcard.
If we have “Deck Mono” option(

Ean, man you are The Man, I was wondering how to make drops for myself, you know like intro drops, name drops and kool things like that and you just helped me out on that!! Thanx man

Classic idea Ean, really pushing things even further Traktor wise! Thanks a mil for this.

for better dropability, set your midi clock in Traktor to manual and set a BPM around the same range you play most of your tracks at. have the click going in your headphones while you record your drop so you have a sense of timing and you can stretch your drop to fit to the beat. this way when you drop it, it doesn’t sound like random sounds over the song, but blends right in.

So do you need a microphone to accomplish this?

so what kind of setup would i need to be able to do this live? just an audio interface with an input?

oh god thats sick…

That is pretty sick. I’d like to do something like that saying “DJ ALLE in the mix”. Or something like that haha

Just wondering what mic you’re using there?

Damn this looks awesome if done right but when i try to do this on the TSP Beta it just crashs straight away >_< lol hopefully when the latest version is not beta any more this wont happen.

am i the only guy that finds the effect on the voice and then the name drop to be extremly annoying? i mean i like the tutorial, but that sound is just aweful!

then again the track is awesome. what is it`?

Excellent, always wanted to know how to do that, not to abuse it but it can make a nice touch and individualize certain gigs, good work :)

It’s total overkill, but I’m hoping it’s just for the sake of demonstrating possibilities. If I heard this, I’d think it was just part of the track and ignore the message (assuming you could understand it in a busy venue).

nope you’re not the only one – hence my first comment :) Once in a while this might be fun but the problem is the DJs who feel the need to name-check themselves this way over every damn track they play … lol

could somebody please paste the video’s url > youtube is banned here and so nothing shows up. thanks !

i do hate Djs who drop their name over every track, or in fact ANY track, but i’m gonna use this to create unique intros to gigs for instance i’m doing an opening party in a few weeks and to have an nice intro welcoming that particular town is quite cool.

I have been doing the same exact thing… but yea – there is no “Deck Mono” feature in Traktor Pro. For some reason, i remember there being one in previous versions of traktor…

a work-around (if you have enough channels on your soundcard) is to get an adapter that splits the signal from the mic into 2 channel inputs on the soundcard (still mono, yet in 2 channels instead of one).

Nice tip too, Can you introduce this tip at the original post, Ean?
[]s

damn butter poster! erase it please :D

Good work. I never once thought to record through the mic for a quick drop or announcement. I knew how to route the mic but this is something a bit more special.

Good work.

The mic Ean uses to record all his videos is a Rode NT1-A

also…this video is hilarious

So damn fun. Keep the tricks comin’! I recommend you all take an old rap instrumental and get nasty on it
