    Hi, you're kiddin' right? ;-)

    To become a DJ just by reading a post here, well, that's impossible!

    Djing is about practicing years over years - it's about understanding what music "is", what it's "made of" and what it "does" to the people.

    If you wanna know how to play two songs in a row with Traktor - please read the user manual.

    Welcome To The Forum Pete.

    First, off this is a friendly forum, we don't tell people to **** off even if you don't like what they have said to you so let's keep it chilled.

    10 days to become a DJ..? I know God made Heaven & Earth in 7 (or was it 6 and had rest on the 7th) but I think you have set yourself a mammoth task.

    No amount of words on a forum will make up for watching YouTube videos of people mixing and giving tutorials.

    Search YouTube for: Ellaskins (his tutorials are for beginners), also for Ean Goldens Traktor routines.
    I think YouTube is the golden goose for DJ technique tutorials.

    And of course, just fire Traktor up and throw some tracks at it. The best way to learn is simply by practising.

    You do have to read the manual though, its compulsory reading.
