Episode Summary

Join Phil Morse and the students of the Digital DJ Tips school, as they look at three burning topics in the world of DJing.

Episode Notes

On the Digital DJ Tips DJ school Inside Track podcast this month, we're looking at three topics that the DJ community is talking about at the moment. This month we've got:

1. The real price of DJing - What does it really cost to take up DJing as a hobby? Not only getting the equipment but keeping up with subscriptions and so on. We do the numbers for you.

2. Lossy versus compressed music - What's the difference between a lossless and a lossy file, and an uncompressed and a compressed file, and do DJs need to know? We dive deeper..

3. Rekordbox subscriptions still down - They've been down for a while now, meaning people can't subscribe, cancel, upgrade, or downgrade their subs. What's going on? And what issues for DJs using software does this highlight?

As ever, this pod is supported 100% by the students of Digital DJ Tips, and it was recorded in a live webinar with lots of student feedback. If you enjoy it and you can, please do give us a five-star rating on Apple Podcasts. It really does make a difference.
