I finished up the initial draft of my deck clone post. I might need to add some screen shots or embed or link to some videos of the described techniques. Not sure.

Can one of the admins verify this patch?

Say: "add to whitelist" to add this user to the whitelist for future PRs.
Say: "ok to test" to start a Jenkins build.
Say: "skip ci" to skip the Jenkins build.
Say: "test this please" to trigger a re-build.

I thought of another usage. Pre-listening to a later part of the currently playing track. I'll think about adding it.

Yeah sure, why not?

Can you run git pull https://github.com/mixxxdj/mixxx.git website to pull in the latest upstream changes? That will fix the deploy preview.

I have used the feature this way and it's quite useful.

I've been dragging my feet on finishing this up. I added a gif of the deck clone feature in action, added the track preview section, and renamed the file. If this looks good, I can squash this into one commit and then we can merge.


### Doubles, Follows, and Chases

In this technique, the same track is played on two decks, but on the second deck, the track is played 1/2 a beat ahead or behind. The crossfader is used to strategically switch between the two decks, creating a delay effect. This can be executed using a deck clone followed by a beat jump of 1/2 a beat on the second track (or manually nudging the track so it ends up half a beat ahead or behind).

Interesting trick. I'll have to experiment with that. :)

Great, can you bump thr date again, maybe to mid-November? Then we can merge this at that date.
