This week only 🔥 Save $100 on Ferry Corsten’s Trance Mixing Masterclass! https://djtips.co/trance
You can’t stay in one key for an entire set – it gets boring. But changing keys badly sounds terrible. In this free lesson, Ferry Corsten shows you two proven methods for switching keys in your trance mixes without killing the energy.
Here’s what you’ll learn…
🤓 The Safe Method: Wait for empty outro beats, then drop in your new key with just beats and bass. Confidence is everything.
😎 The Daring Method: Change key while melodic elements are still playing from the old track. Balance is crucial.
Ferry also explains why big, simple incoming basslines work best for key changes, when to make the audience feel the change deliberately vs keeping it smooth, and how he chooses which method to use depending on the moment and the tracks.
The trick with key changes? Confidence. Whether you’re doing it smoothly or boldly, commit to it. Hesitant key changes sound worse than deliberate ones.
Dig this lesson? There’s loads more like it in our brand-new training, Ferry Corsten’s Trance Mixing Masterclass. We’d love to see you in there – head here to get stuck in! https://djtips.co/trance
