What students say about this course

James, UK

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.

Jesse, USA

After a ten year break from DJing, I picked up again with a small controller and the Rekordbox software and although the basics haven’t changed the way to interact with your music through software has. There is so much available and can be a bit overwhelming. The Rekordbox courses are clear with good examples and great structure which helped me find my way around.

Before you start

What you need

This course is suitable for anybody using the Pioneer DJ DDJ-FLX4 controller. We have filmed the course on both Serato DJ Pro and Rekordbox, so you can follow along with either software (or both!).

We sometimes get enquiries from DDJ-FLX6 and DDJ-FLX10 users about which course to purchase. These controllers will both apply to this course as the FLX range of controllers all work in a similar way. Or, if you already know the software you're going to use, you can also take one of our dedicated courses, such as the Rekordbox Intermediate or Serato DJ Intermediate course.

Jamie Hartley

Our instructor, Jamie Hartley, a seasoned DJ with over a decade of experience, began his career as a full-time DJ at the age of 16. Since 2014, he has grown Crossfader from a small UK-based DJ school where he personally taught aspiring DJs, to the renowned global online DJ school and community it is today. 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.
