Paid Work - DJ song preparation in Rekordbox and Ableton
Paid Work - DJ song preparation in Rekordbox and Ableton Posted on: 19.05.2013 by Sharice Bertolini Hi there,I DJ in either Ableton or on CDJs. I have a bunch of songs I need prepared for DJing. I usually do this myself however do not have the time to go through all my library. How much would someone charge ($US) per track to do either or both tasks as listed below? I've looked on oDesk and eLance for contractors to do this to no avail. An example of the process to be done is: Rekordbox - Warp song in Rekordbox - Set start point - Set 3 or 4 cue points - Assign a colour to the track based on BPM - Rename the file song title with BPM, Key and Song Name Ableton - Warp song - Set start point - Insert loop for last 8 bars of track - Assign a colour to the track based on BPM - Rename the file song title with BPM, Key and Song Name Any feedback would be welcomed. Cheers, Gregor | |

| Traci Knolhoff 20.05.2013 | It takes less than 30 seconds to warp a track in Live and it's even quicker in Traktor. If you get good, you can do it while performing... |
| Hipolito Scionti 20.05.2013 | Preparing tracks is a chore tho... I do miss vinyl days but also remember never bring satisfied with my collection... Always striving for better / freshet tunes |

| Nedra Fresneda 20.05.2013 | It's not only the price, now you get hundreds of releases a day so selective digging has become a much more time consuming task. |

| Audrey Pinda 20.05.2013 | If you're not willing to put in the time and effort yourself... Move aside and let people who are get the gigs. That's all part of the game really. If you're not willing to do the work now, will you ever in the future? It's something very easy to do if you train yourself to it, and it's part of learning the ins and outs of your own music. You have someone else set your cue-points... you aren't going to know if they are any good or not. This whole idea honestly disgusts me. |

| Brunilda Kora 19.05.2013 | I'll take some Ableton work off you (in addition to chromatome) if you're in a rush... |
| Gaynell Rydberg 19.05.2013 | lol. Didn't some guy come through here to advertise his services for this stuff? |
| Traci Knolhoff 19.05.2013 | I'll do the Ableton workflow for $1 per song if you want and $0.75 per song if there's more than 100 songs. |
