Technology
BPM = tempo
Beats Per Minute: this represents the rhythm, the number of audible beats in a piece of music per minute. The greater the number of BPM, the faster the tempo of the music is for dancers. A slow song is often between 70 and 90 BPM, while dance songs average around 120 BPM, and Trance songs can approach 160 BPM. The tempo is the number of BPM.Equalization / EQ
Equalization is the adjustment of sound split up into frequency bands, often in the form of bass, medium and treble frequencies. Equalization consists of increasing or decreasing the volume of a frequency range: for example, increasing bass (frequencies from 20Hz to 150Hz) by 12dB and decreasing treble and mediums by -12dB. Equalization helps to make music more danceable: as bass frequencies provide the main rhythm, increasing the bass can make dancing easier. Equalization can also help to mix 2 pieces of music: by cutting the bass from track A to mix it with track B (where the mediums and treble have been cut), a hybrid of the rhythm of track B is superimposed over the melody of track A. A piece’s tonality is affected by the equalization adjustment.Synchronization
Synchronizing two pieces consists of setting them at the same rhythm (giving them the same number of beats per minute) and adjusting the beats to line up at the same time (by slowing down or stopping the second piece to restart it at the precise moment when the device plays the beat of the first piece).2 decks to mix 2 music tracks

Comments about Hercules DJ Control MP3 E2 PC/MAC USB Controller:
I was using a stand alone program to video dj with but no one wants to see a dj that has set up his mixes in advance. I will continue to use that program for weddings, however I wanted to use virtual dj to video mix at bars/nightclubs. I purchased this almost as a test to make sure this is the route I wanted to go. Well I am pretty impressed so far. Very easy to map. Controls work great. Doesn't scratch very well but that's not why I bought this, and I think that it's compact size and small jog wheels is the reason for this. When on scratch mode it is easy to bump the jog wheel and throw your mix off but just turn scratch mode off and problem solved. Love that this also came with a protective lid and that this is USB bus powered.

Q:
is there a flight case or any at all to travel with it1 answer
A:
It comes with a fabric cover. But definately not a flight case. This is a rather small unit, smaller than the typical 13 in laptop so itll be difficult to find a pre-fabbed flight case. You would be better off getting an Odyssey backpack. Please feel free to give me a call and we can discuss your options. MikeT, ext 8103, 800-945-9300Q:
