Hey guys,
I have been suffering from this economy and its mostly because I am being undercut by dj's that will work for peanuts. They will set up a 4 speaker system and play for 4 hours for $100-$250. I have gone to some of these events to see what they offer. Its generic at best and most of the time I have seen big problems. At one event half the system failed about an hour into the gig and was not fixed or even attempted to be fixed.
Soooooo, what I am wanting to do is offer something these guys are not offering. I am looking to offer video as part of my standard package. Probably gonna be a plasma tv or something like that fastened to my truss system. I think this will seperate me from these guys. I have tried to explain to potential customers about backup systems....about being licensed and insured...about being contracted to actually showup and what I offer as a dj and mc. The clients around here mostly want to talk price first.
Its gonna be a gamble on my part but I gotta do something.
Ok , so i want a software that will play videos, music and karaoke all at once. I dont want to have seperate programs for each. I wanna be able to change on the fly. I know pcdj offers something like this, bu do any others? I havent really looked into software lately. I love my traktor for events. The main reason for that is the way the files are loaded and how you can make playlists saved for different things.
What ideas do y'all have about any of this?
thanks,
