What students say about this course
Mitch, Australia
Crossfader has helped me be a much more confident DJ. It has allowed me, from the comfort of my bedroom, develop the skills needed to DJ for fun. It's also helped me around with music which is a passion of mine.
Nate, USA
Amazing, Amazing, Amazing! Cannot recommend Crossfader enough if you want to learn the fundamentals of DJing. Jamie lays out an easy to follow plan that had me comfortably mixing songs in just a few short weeks.
Gaz, UK
Give Crossfader a shot if you want to 1-up your mixing techniques, learn new software, master skills you already know and stand out from the rest. After a couple of weeks, I feel very confident on Rekordbox, and I’ve been using Serato DJ for most of my DJ career. He made the transition super easy for me and now I’m proficient in both DJ software. Thanks Jamie!
About this course
The Numark Beginner DJ Course is a complete, step-by-step introduction to DJing, designed to take you from zero experience to confidently mixing full DJ sets.
This course focuses on real DJ fundamentals, not shortcuts. You will learn how DJ software and hardware work together, how to manage music properly, and how to mix cleanly using timing, phrasing, EQs, filters, and headphones.
Rather than relying on visual aids or auto features, the course builds strong core skills such as beat matching by ear, tempo control, and understanding musical structure. These skills transfer to any DJ setup, not just Numark.
You will also learn how to mix across different genres, including House, Dance, and Hip Hop, and how to adapt your approach depending on the music.
By the end of the course, you will feel confident navigating Serato DJ Lite, controlling your Numark hardware, and creating smooth, professional-sounding mixes.
This course is ideal if you are brand new to DJing or want to rebuild your foundations properly.

Through years of one-on-one instruction in a studio, Jamie has developed a foolproof and systematic approach to teaching DJ skills and techniques. Unlike other DJ schools, Jamie focuses on teaching the creative skills that make you stand out.
