The "echo out" transition is a great way to improve the flow of a mix, and DJ Jazzy Jeff is one of its masters. While we can't all play like Jeff, we can learn a lot from his techniques and apply them to our sets. Watch above as Mojaxx demonstrates some of them in this week's episode of DJcityTV's "Tips and Tricks."
"Effects are a big part of production and I try to merge my production brain with my DJ brain. I use the echo out effect a lot when I DJ because it allows for smooth transitions, especially at different BPMs. It also adds a studio quality to live DJ performances." - DJ Jazzy Jeff
