    Trussing Experts?

    That's a given, trailers coming in due time. I ended up passing on this trussing because he couldn't give me a brand name, and last thing I needed was more junk in my garage. I've been renting Global at a great price for events that require it, I'm probably just gonna buy from a dealer soon.

    Trussing Experts?

    Hey guys, have a quick question about some trussing. I've been looking to add some decent trussing to my show and came across someone locally selling trussing and crank stands. The thing is that he's saying this trussing is 14" and I can't come across any major brand that sells 14" truss. I...

    Quick Amp Question

    The house speakers are separate from the system the DJ uses. The DJ uses newer s115v speakers where as the house system speakers are the old not well maintained speakers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Quick Amp Question

    Let me clarify, them being old does not make them inferior. However, from the peeling plywood evident inside the ports to the awful sound these plain suck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Quick Amp Question

    Absolutely agree. This amp was only driving the two Yamaha, but was indeed being pushed way too hard. This wasn't the first time we've had an issue, and the owner is aware that a larger system is necessary. Now the old in-house system is something else.... Try 8 OLD yamaha 12" cabs (guessing...

    Quick Amp Question

    Absolutely - I'll do some before/after shots. It's really remarkable, it's a well known college bar that's been kind of let go for years. Now it's finally getting the attention it needs. I've worked there since I got to school, 2.5 years now, and am really excited to see the outcome. Edit...

    Quick Amp Question

    Good point and I agree. However now it's a non issue. A new owner took over and is renovating and actually putting money into the right places. New floors, exterior, removing walls and of course a new sound system. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Quick Amp Question

    For gain structure, I should keep my mixer at "0" and then adjust the amp to desired show volume, correct? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Quick Amp Question

    Yes it is an in-house system. And I convinced the old owner to upgrade from an old Sampson amp to the QSC knowing that this rig gets pushed too hard. It was my hopes that the QSC would hold up in a hard environment. I didn't realize the speakers have the ability to self protect? they are...

    Quick Amp Question

    Also, I will admit that my DDJ-SX had creeped into the red zone, could having too hot a signal going to the amp cause the limiter to come on? (if this is indeed what's happening) Dealing with flocks of drunk college kids and the small details become hard to keep up with... Sent from my iPhone...

    Quick Amp Question

    Hey guys, have a brief question about a QSC RMX2450 amp. I Dj Thursdays at a local college bar for fun and practice mostly. They run 2 Yamaha s115v speakers and the QSC amp. This setup sounds fine with an empty bar but it's not enough when the place is full. I tend to drive the amp to...

    I really don't want to pay another $200 to upgrade to VDJ pro, currently downloading the Traktor Pro 2 Demo, we'll see how that goes. I'm not opposed to Virtual DJ but another $200 just for MIDI support is pretty steep.

    On to another issue with Serato DJ....beat grids are horribly off pretty widely across the board. From reading online this is an issue for alot of people. I had some off beats in VDJ but there are quite a few songs registering in the 70 range when they are in reality 130-140... How is...

    Interesting - Unfortunately I don't have the "pro" version of VDJ. I am running pro basic because until now I had no need to connect to a controller. I'd really like to test it on the DDJSX...

    How is it inferior? I'm completely new to using Serato but have been exposed to it for quite a while. It's my understanding that Serato DJ is a combination of SSL and Itch?
