so I’ve put my playlist together after making sure the beat grids are in the right place (I’m mixing jungle) - I then set my bpm where I want it (86) and then lock the beatgrid - but when I come back to the track it keeps changing to 86.5 0r 84 or whatever, seems to be influenced by the next track in my playlist which I also set to 86bpm - I want all my tracks at 86 - but they keep changing and I feel like I must be missing something really obvious -
Engine Prime analyses the BPM and gives you the correct value.
If you want to do a 86bpm fixed set, load a track let’s say it’s 84, move your pitch fader to 86, load next track on opposite deck (or next layer) adjust pitch fader to 86.
When your track is about the middle, you can increase the bpm value a bit by pitching the track up.
(Not much … just a slight bit … just 2 or 3 BPM) … then search a track which is close to the new BPM Value, and set this track also to the new desired BPM of the playing track … so you can have nice smooth mix with variable BPM´s … you can go further if you choose tracks with double or half bpm … naaaah not at 86 BPM but maybe if you try 60 BPM you can mix that with 120 BPM and so on.
You will get the clue by trying
86 BPM … hmmm maybe a rave track or breakbeat matches then xDDD
