Re: How many here record their own sets?

making your own mix is a lot easier than you think. a pc is all you need. just run the rca's from your mixer to your pc, record it using a program like cool edit (that's what i use), and that's it. when you're done, just save it as wav or convert it to mp3 right then to save space. it sounds really good and you won't find noise like you might expect recording into "only" a pc. you won't even need a special audio card.

[quote=BureOne]Ive noticed many grab sets from the Promo's & Recommendations and it's all filled with well known dj from around the world etc.

but who here actually mixes and tapes their own on DAT or PC?.

I know many of us are just music lovers and dont actually mix or have the equipment for it. Maybe there should be another section for board member sets or something.[/quote]

Re: How many here record their own sets?

is there a special mp3 player out on the market that makes dj-ing easier? is there something special about iRiver h320 (just seems like another harddrive mp3 player to me). and i'm not talking about the stanton-ipod dj dock that has horrible reviews and renders it pretty much useless (you can't control pitch!)

[quote=Jibgolly]having just got my iRiver h320... i fucking love it. used it on new years eve and got a good 5 hours worth. (i had to ditch the recording tho cos the cdj's were fucked) the whole thing sounded great. sound quality is just what you need.

as far as recording my shows, i use a PC and sound forge. works like a charm everytime.[/quote]

Re: How many here record their own sets?

It's not that it makes dj'ing easier. It makes recording your sets easier. Because it's so portable and you can carry the thing in your pocket.

Re: How many here record their own sets?

[quote=ichrang]There use to be a DJ/ Producer section on this board... I guess they did away with it because it wasn't too popular.. I also tried posting a few mixes on here a while back, but everytime I would get like 10 views so I dont even bother anymore. People grab mixes from the names they know because they dont want to waste their time... myself included. Why download a mix from DJ unknown when I can get one from Desyn where I know its good. My point is there are a ton of DJs on here.... and if there was a member's sets section, I doubt it would do too well except for a few DJs who have built their reputation on this board or who posts so much that people know their name.[/quote]

I guess this is the overall answer I was looking for; Thanks! It would be cool like someone else said, to have a different section in the Promos place for regular MS members to post thier stuff, so it doesn't get bumbed to the 3rd page in an hour...

I think some of us get intimidated by whats on there; so why even bother. But if there was a particular section; well that would be different.
