Re: post photos of your dj setup here :)

why in the world do you have the monitors over that far in the room, or do you always dj in your headphones?

as to fangstick, you really need to get yourself some risers for those speakers, along with some foam to put them on to keep vibrations down. Vibrations AKA Feedback...are the enemy of a great sound system.

Re: post photos of your dj setup here :)

the blue and the brown desk in that pic are at 90 degrees to each other and that pic makes the room a damn sight bigger than it is... the monitors are less than a metre if standing infront of the mixer. monitors are set up so sweet spot is in front of the pc... more critical for me now than prime position for mixing.

Re: Say Hello To My Little Friends!

unless you know your tracks that well, not much of a fan of 90 tracks on 1 CD...sure it's nice and all ;) (and more compact), but standard audio still works especially if you play out.

#640509Post 89 of 466

Re: Say Hello To My Little Friends!

"Standard audio".. ? watcha mean, .wav format and 5 tracks.?

Well I've done folders (house, tech house, progressive, funky & electro) That way the tracks aren't all bunched up. I would have to make a playlist just to make sure I dont play the same track twice.

Other than that, one should be fine with that many tracks on a cd.

Standard audio is just burning as a regular CD and putting several tracks on each one.

Some DJ's just have 1-3 tracks on each CD, others do more, I like to get around 8-10. I don't like full maxing time-wise since those outer tracks are the first to go/skip as the CD gets heavy use out of it.

Problem with burning straight MP3's is not every club has MP3-compatible CD decks yet...so you couldn't essentially play. And unless you know where the tracks are on a MP3 CD, cueing it up would be a bitch (note: fast cueing = hold track search and use the jog wheel on the Pioneer's; Denon's have that nice dial for track selecting)

^^i'll take the CDJ's, you can have the pio, aight?

#648185Post 102 of 466

Re: post photos of your dj setup here :)

Originally I was supposed to upgrade my mk2's to mk3's. But the dealers took ages getting them, so i spent the money on a djm 800. I've still got my xone:92 which I cannot bring myself to sell... If im honest the Jury is still out, but so far the djm 800 is just as good as my xone:92, the filter on the djm 800 is'nt all that tbh. But the faders are quality, better than the xone:92 dare i say :shock:.

#648412Post 103 of 466

Re: post photos of your dj setup here :)

it sure does look nice that you have a black mixer and black cd players. very color co-ordinated

#648490Post 104 of 466

Re: post photos of your dj setup here :)

i think colour co-ordination was the last thing on my mind when i bought it lol :)

#648547Post 105 of 466

Re: post photos of your dj setup here :)

#649501Post 106 of 466

Re: post photos of your dj setup here :)

Ok so it won't win any prize for the coolest setup...but it gets 'er done. Basic 1200s, pioneer djm300, and alesis m1 active monitors. And a fricken ton of vinyl. And (not pictured) a laptop for recording my demos.

Re: post photos of your dj setup here :)

Nice set ups

I am currently waiting for a neighbour to make me a stand, went through all the details, ie Turntable size, mixer etc, I liked a set up there with a laptop on the side, my stand will be up against the wall with 2 rows of vinyl on the bottom, not enough room so the rest is in the corner of the room, standing on shelves. 2 TT, Mixer, Sampler, Midi Contoller on top, amp tucked away underneath and eventually speakers hanging either side of me. I would like to have my laptop on a slanting stand from the wall, Ie.... like a cdj etc...and use it when nessesary.

Funny thing was, he never imagined that so much vinyl existed, not that i have tons of the stuff but you know its not exactly a common thing these days, even in Djing.

Re: post photos of your dj setup here :)

Well Im in the process of re-arranging my bedroom to accomodate all my equipment. I recently purchased a new mixer and 2 cdj 800mk2's, so no I have no room for my Techniques.
I have a long desk that would fit everything, but Im using it for my computer, amp/receiver and 5 disc cd player.

1 big shelf (5 rows) full of vinyl I will need to move accross the other side to move desk where that's at.

I need a camera too. :lol:
