About this Event
DJing has never been easier! Scratch that creative itch and learn to DJ with Georges River Libraries. Music professional Neil will lead you through all the tools and techniques you need to get mixing and create your own sound.

- How to use the essential equipment every DJ needs including controllers, mixers, headphones and easy-to-use software.
- To load tracks, cue music and get ready for transitions.
- Basic techniques such as beat counting and mixing.
- How to use music structure, identify song parts, use EQ and be introduced to simple effects.

No prior experience is required – just bring your personal device (mobile, laptop, or tablet) and headphones and get ready to start your DJing journey!
