    Lasers

    Been doing a little research on adding lasers for school dances. Even ran across the International Laser Display Association website with warnings, classes, etc. So if you use lasers in your shows: 1. Is safety training the way to go? 2. What brands/models are proven performers? 3...

    Website for Lyrics

    Any trustworthy site(s) for lyrics to newly released songs? The few that I've checked are loaded with adware/malware, etc.

    Crossover/Subs Settings

    As I've mentioned before, I am new to the crossover/subwoofer world but I'm learning. For lows we're using: BBE Maxx-X3 crossover, QSC RMX2450 amp (mono bridge), (2) Peavey SP118 subs. What we're getting is clipping with the QSC amp - even though we carefully watch the signal levels from the...

    Song ID

    Just caught part of Speeders and this song playing on car stereo: "Come on make it roll baby. Let me see you drop it now." Google was useless. Any idea of artist-title?

    Bridge With NL4 Connectors/Cable

    Need cable advice to mono bridge a QSC RMX2450 amp: 1. Cable must be 4-wire with a Neutrik NL4 connector? 2. Any problem with NL4 connectors mating with amps, speakers, etc.? 3. On the NL4, I have to disconnect the -1 wire and connect +2 wire to the -1 terminal? 4. Anything else I...

    House Song

    Wife is watching SYTYCD and I heard Fedde Le Grand - Scared Of Me on their opening dance routine. House/Techno is not generally what we do, but this one sounds promising. I plan to give it a try at two school events this weekend.

    Christmas Music Suggestions

    Looking at ODJT history, Christmas music isn't a favorite topic around here. :sqbiggrin: I'm doing a playlist for dinner music and need suggestions for contemporary artists' versions of Chrismas songs. I'll start: Whitney Houston-The First Noel, Air Supply-Sleigh Ride, Manhattan Transfer-It...

    Apps For Dual 15's

    I've been thinking (dangerous) about dual 15" two-way speakers - say 800W-1000W: 1. Is there an ideal application for these? Any limitations (besides weight)? 2. I'm wondering if they would be good for reinforcement in a larger school gymnasium, etc.? 3. Do you use them? Why or why not?

    Sound Processing

    Had a chance to see a fellow DJ that I regard highly work this weekend. His configuration was some JBL 15" speakers/B-52 dual 15's/EV sub. I also noticed a dbx 266XL in his rack. He was busy doing his thing and I didn't want to interrupt so.... I am not currently using any compressor/gate. I...

    I'm asking this as a non-HTML/web design person, how can I create e-mail messages that look like a newsletter?

    Pioneer

    Looking back, I don't see much about Pioneer's DJ gear here on ODJT. Is their stuff considered pro-level? Anyone use their controllers or CD players now? I'm just considering my options for future buys. Feel free to PM if you prefer.

    Bar & Club DJ Second Nature

    Heard a radio promo for DJ Second Nature a couple of years ago and Googled him. Turns out he is a Georgia boy (Atlanta) and can absolutely mix it like no one I've ever heard! If you have some time, Google his set at the House of Blues and enjoy! :sqwink:

    Rockit Library

    I need to add a bunch of songs to my Rockit library. If I use the Add Wiz, it wants to reload my whole library - not good. But in Add Trks, I have to clumsily move through all the files to add each track. My question: is there a way to sort or either move through the files in Add Tracks to...

    My partner and I are going to design & build our website. I did a small site with Microsoft FrontPage (discontinued) a few years ago. If you are doing your own work, what HTML editor are you using?

    Setting Amplifier Gain

    Our system is pretty basic: CD players & PC - mixer - amp - (4) speakers (R & L in parallel). I've always been told to set mixer main output faders to 0. Then adjust the other faders to avoid clipping on the VU meter. My question is where do I set the L & R gains on the amplifier? Turn them...

    Speakers

    Hey guys (and gals), I'm a newbie on here and the business! I'm putting a small system together and want your thoughts/opinions on JBL, B-52, and Community speakers. FWIW, I'm taking a hard look at (4) JBL Eon 1500s.
