			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The key to DJ mixing is finding the right balance between the cued record and the live record. If you&#x2019;re using your headphones fully on, you might want to have the cue balance set so that the live record is playing quite faintly in the background, and have your cued record loud when you&#x2019;re finding the beat.   </p>
<p>&amp;#xD;</p>
<p>On the other hand, some people prefer to have the two tracks at the same level. You can even have the live record louder than the cued record if you really want to &#x2013; again, there&#x2019;s no right or wrong way to do this, just find the solution that works best for your ears. You can change the balance between the two records at any time, if you want to check the sync more closely.   </p>
<p>&amp;#xD;</p>
<p>It can be quite difficult to tell if your cued record needs to be faster or slower to match the live track, even at the best of times &#8211; if you&#x2019;re listening to the cued record with one ear on the headphones and the live track blasting out all around you, it gets even harder again. However, the more you practise, the less you&#x2019;ll be guessing &#x2013; you&#x2019;ll learn (hopefully) to identify which track is running faster and get them matched with fewer errors as time goes by.  </p>
<p>&amp;#xD;</p>
<p>As I mentioned previously on the online DJ tips site, it&#x2019;s often much harder to pick out which disc is slow when the tempo difference is small. Large tempo mismatches will send one record galloping off much faster than the other, so this should be quite easy to spot and rectify.   </p>
<p>&amp;#xD;</p>
<p>When the two records are almost (but not quite) in sync, you may hear some minor phasing artefacts. This is difficult to describe, but happens when two identical (or near identical) sounds, such as a typical house music bass/kick drum, are played slightly out-of-time with one another. This creates an interference wobble in the waveform, which will differ depending upon which kick is coming first and how much delay is between the kicks. After an extensive amount of listening experience you should be able to detect the sonic differences between a cued record that&#x2019;s too slow and one that&#x2019;s too fast. </p>
<p>&amp;#xD;</p>
<p>Again, this is one of the most difficult skills of Djing, and there&#x2019;s no magic formula to getting it right &#x2013; what you need to do is keep mixing as many discs as possible, change the tempo of one record so that it&#x2019;s running slightly too fast and listen to what that sounds like. Then change the tempo again so it&#x2019;s running slightly too slow and listen to that. Keep doing this until you can tell the difference between how the two cases sound. You should then be able to apply this knowledge to pretty much any two records that you might want to mix, and your mixing abilities can develop from there.   </p>
<p>&amp;#xD;</p>
<p>If you are still playing two copies of the same track, then setting them slightly out of time will cause a very distinct phasing effect &#x2013; this is sometimes deliberately used as a more advanced DJ effect, but it also is a good way of illustrating the concept of &#x2018;waveform wobble&#x2019; or phasing itself.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The key to DJ mixing is finding the right balance between the cued record and the live record. If you&#x2019;re using your headphones fully on, you might want to have the cue balance set so that the live record is playing quite faintly in the background, and have your cued record loud when you&#x2019;re finding the beat.   </p>
<p>&amp;#xD;</p>
<p>On the other hand, some people prefer to have the two tracks at the same level. You can even have the live record louder than the cued record if you really want to &#x2013; again, there&#x2019;s no right or wrong way to do this, just find the solution that works best for your ears. You can change the balance between the two records at any time, if you want to check the sync more closely.   </p>
<p>&amp;#xD;</p>
<p>It can be quite difficult to tell if your cued record needs to be faster or slower to match the live track, even at the best of times &#8211; if you&#x2019;re listening to the cued record with one ear on the headphones and the live track blasting out all around you, it gets even harder again. However, the more you practise, the less you&#x2019;ll be guessing &#x2013; you&#x2019;ll learn (hopefully) to identify which track is running faster and get them matched with fewer errors as time goes by.  </p>
<p>&amp;#xD;</p>
<p>As I mentioned previously on the online DJ tips site, it&#x2019;s often much harder to pick out which disc is slow when the tempo difference is small. Large tempo mismatches will send one record galloping off much faster than the other, so this should be quite easy to spot and rectify.   </p>
<p>&amp;#xD;</p>
<p>When the two records are almost (but not quite) in sync, you may hear some minor phasing artefacts. This is difficult to describe, but happens when two identical (or near identical) sounds, such as a typical house music bass/kick drum, are played slightly out-of-time with one another. This creates an interference wobble in the waveform, which will differ depending upon which kick is coming first and how much delay is between the kicks. After an extensive amount of listening experience you should be able to detect the sonic differences between a cued record that&#x2019;s too slow and one that&#x2019;s too fast. </p>
<p>&amp;#xD;</p>
<p>Again, this is one of the most difficult skills of Djing, and there&#x2019;s no magic formula to getting it right &#x2013; what you need to do is keep mixing as many discs as possible, change the tempo of one record so that it&#x2019;s running slightly too fast and listen to what that sounds like. Then change the tempo again so it&#x2019;s running slightly too slow and listen to that. Keep doing this until you can tell the difference between how the two cases sound. You should then be able to apply this knowledge to pretty much any two records that you might want to mix, and your mixing abilities can develop from there.   </p>
<p>&amp;#xD;</p>
<p>If you are still playing two copies of the same track, then setting them slightly out of time will cause a very distinct phasing effect &#x2013; this is sometimes deliberately used as a more advanced DJ effect, but it also is a good way of illustrating the concept of &#x2018;waveform wobble&#x2019; or phasing itself.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a class="ld_link" href="http://www.dj-equipment4u.co.uk/DJ-Equipment/Headphones" target=" " title="DJ Headphones">DJ Headphones</a> preference is truly subjective. Each person looks for something a little bit different based on where they use them (ie bedroom versus club) and what they use them for (ie. DJing versus production). Preferences for portability, shape, and sound vary as well.</p>
<p>Since there are many important things to look for in a pair of DJ headphones, here is a breakdown of some things to consider before you choose:</p>
<p><strong>Sound Quality</strong></p>
<p>Naturally&#x2026; it&#x2019;s all about the music. Great DJ headphones will feature powerful drivers that reproduce crystal clear lows, mids and highs so you don&#8217;t miss a beat. Make sure you choose a pair that&#8217;s loud, clean and puts you right in the music. There&#8217;s nothing more important than this.</p>
<p><strong>Noise Isolation</strong></p>
<p>Being a DJ means finding yourself in loud environments. To ensure that nothing distracts you from your music, choose a pair of DJ headphones that provide much needed sound isolation to ferret out background noise. You&#x2019;ll want to look for a closed ear design that separates what&#x2019;s going on inside your DJ headphones&#x2026; from what&#x2019;s going on around you.</p>
<p><strong>Strong Construction</strong></p>
<p>DJ headphones undergo a lot of wear and tear. If you choose a pair that has inferior parts, weak connections, or a less than sturdy build, they won&#x2019;t be able to withstand the rigors of DJing. Be sure to consider what goes into the build of a pair you&#x2019;re considering and how it stacks up against other models. Quality parts make quality headphones.</p>
<p><strong>Portability</strong><strong> </strong></p>
<p>Do your headphones feature folding design for easy storage? Do they come with a convenient or protective case that will keep them in better condition longer? These are good things to consider.</p>
<p><strong>Comfort</strong></p>
<p>Good DJ headphones feel good on your head. And not just for a few minutes&#x2026; but possibly for hours on end. Make sure the fit is good, the pads are soft and secure and one ear monitoring is comfortable before you buy.</p>
<p><strong>Price?</strong></p>
<p>When it comes to DJ headphones, price is an important factor&#x2026; but it shouldn&#x2019;t be the most important factor. In general a higher price is going to mean better materials, a better build, better sound, and better features but there are certainly exceptions to this rule. The key is to use a guide, but to look within your range to make sure your other important factors are being met.</p>
<p>Bottom line? If you&#x2019;re a DJ you&#x2019;re going to need high quality DJ headphones that will last long, feel comfortable, and help you catch each beat so you can do what you do best. That doesn&#x2019;t mean you have to spend a fortune. But it does mean you should do your due diligence, consider what&#x2019;s most important to you and seek out the pair that offers the best combination of attributes within your budget. Happy shopping!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>They&#x2019;re called <a class="ld_link" href="http://www.dj-equipment4u.co.uk/DJ-Equipment/Headphones" target=" " title="DJ headphones">DJ headphones</a> for a reason: they&#x2019;re built to meet the needs and rigorous use of DJs rather than just casual listeners.</p>
<p>But that doesn&#x2019;t mean that audiophiles and regular music lovers can&#x2019;t enjoy a pair of DJ headphones.</p>
<p>For one thing, DJ headphones often provide superior sound over standard headphones. They tend to employ powerful drivers that faithfully reproduce low and high range sounds and deliver every nuance of the music being played.</p>
<p>This elevated quality is essential for DJs because they need to hear every beat to mix well when they perform. But that doesn&#x2019;t mean regular folks can enjoy the superb sound as well! Better sounding music is better sounding music no matter who is listening.</p>
<p>Another benefit of DJ headphones is that they&#x2019;re built to last. They have to be. While regular music listeners use their headphones casually (usually), DJs are required to take theirs on the road for gigs, they toss them in heavy equipment bags, pull them on and off their head during sets, twist and pull the cord, and administer other regular abuses.As a result, top DJ headphone manufacturers know that they need to build their product very well so that they can withstand the beating they&#x2019;re bound to take.</p>
<p>But once again, a long lasting well constructed product doesn&#x2019;t just benefit DJs and music producers. Anyone can appreciate a quality pair that&#x2019;s constructed well and lasts and lasts.</p>
<p>The same goes with comfort. DJ headphones tend to be built for comfort compared to most standard headphones because the people who wear them do so for extended periods of time. In some cases, for hours and hours at a time.</p>
<p>Even casual listeners can appreciate this during long flights, for wearing them to sleep, or in the case of noise reduction (another typical feature of DJ headphones) when trying to drown out noise to get work done.</p>
<p>So whether you&#x2019;re a DJ or just someone who loves music, you should consider broadening your search beyond standard headphones. After all, DJ headphones may be built for DJs. But that doesn&#x2019;t mean that regular listeners won&#x2019;t really enjoy the superior sound, quality and comfort as well.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><a rel="nofollow" href="http://tinyurl.com/ye4ozdo">Tinnitus Headphones </a></strong></p>
<p>In our highly mobile society, more and !no! people are listening to music through headphones on a daily basis. Whether it&#8217;s the commute to work on the subway or the bus or just going for a jog, the grow in portable music players means that now it is straightforward as opposed to ever to shoot your favorite music in you wherever you go. However, a lot of these new music devices come with a free pair of the wrong kind of headphones: ear buds.<strong>Tinnitus Headphones</strong></p>
<p>Ear buds actually sit in the ear&#8217;s canal, instead of on the surface of the ear, and the sort of sound that they deliver is more likely to cause hearing damage over time because it is piping the sound more directly, without any sort of cushion. Also important to consider is the fact that, because ear buds have no noise canceling quality to them, most people who are listening to their MP3 players with them have them turned up to a level that is already doing damage for hearing. First and foremost, hearing problems can be minimized by, regardless of which type of headphones are being worn, always taking steps to ensure that they aren&#8217;t turned up to their maximum volume level.</p>
<p>Some sets of headphones include their own volume control setting, so if you keep that at a mid-level and don&#8217;t turn up your music player past that, you&#8217;re doing a great deal of good for your hearing. After all, it&#8217;s not just loud concert-level noise that can cause trouble with your hearing. Something as simple as repeated exposure to music cranked up too loud through headphones can do damage, too, especially if it is a consistent part of your life. <strong><a rel="nofollow" href="http://tinyurl.com/ye4ozdo">Tinnitus Headphones </a></strong></p>
<p>Another thing to consider if tying to prevent hearing loss is investment in a better pair of headphones that will not require so much juice in terms of volume. A number of different companies, from high-end leaders in sound to hip and cutting-edge DJ outfitters, sell types of noise-cancelling headphones. There are numerous advantages to noise-cancelling headphones.<strong>Tinnitus Headphones</strong></p>
<p>The biggest is that instead of just upping the volume, these types of headphones have a built-in microphone that reads the ambient noise level of wherever you&#8217;re listening and actually helps to cancel it out. Noise-cancelling headphones also are never designed as ear buds, meaning that you will be receiving sound where your ear can handle it, not inside of it. Suffering from Tinnitus and Ringing in Ear?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The key to DJ mixing is finding the right balance between the cued record and the live record.
