How To Work With Idj² - Numark iDJ2 Guide D'utilisation

HOW TO WORK WITH iDJ²
iDJ² introduces some revolutionary concepts for the Digital DJ, however working with the product is quick and
easy. Many of the digital features reflect traditional DJ techniques that you'll already be familiar with. In fact
there is no one correct way to work with iDJ² as you'll discover the more you experiment, but here are the
basics...
Get Digital!
Before you can start with iDJ² you need to get your content into one of the supported digital formats.
"USB Device Compatibility" section of this manual covers this process in detail, but in brief you should
use your PC or Mac to convert your CDs, records and tapes into WAV, MP3 or AAC format. If you
already use digital media products such as personal MP3 players or PC DJ packages, then you may
already have your tracks in a suitable format. It's worth taking some care at this stage to ensure your
content is converted to a high standard. You might find products such as Numark's TTUSB computer-
attached turntable useful for getting your traditional media converted.
Get Ready!
Before the gig, you should check that your portable media device or devices are loaded with the
content you need. To save time, you can use the Librarian tool in your PC to prepare a library for each
device (see "Creating a Library" section). It's always a good idea to carry a backup copy of your
content, a precaution which is really easy in the digital world.
