Mixing at 71 BPM
Direct mixing: tracks at 71 BPM blend smoothly with anything between 68 and 74 BPM using pitch adjustment.
Half-time and double-time: Halve 71 and you get 35.5; double it and you get 142. Both are the same pulse counted differently, which is why a track at 35.5 will drop cleanly under one at 71. In the catalog, 36 BPM sits outside the range we analyse and we hold 3,727 tracks stored at 142 BPM. Work the octave move out.
Energy flow: with 132 high-energy tracks in our catalog, 71 BPM is ideal for warm-up and mid-set grooves.
