Will check out your promo set now.

[jeffrey collins]

i think i saw a couple ad's for those kinds of mixers. are they really expensive?

[Caley Martin]

nuo 5 is around 1100?

[Yao]

I sold my NUO3, but i want either an Ecler NUO4 or an A&H back later on...

Will try to post pics later on, still have the ones from the setup i sold a few weeks ago..

Doesn't get more basic than this, on the second pic you can see the left speaker; there's another on the right, and I've used a steel wire contruction to make them hang free, only held by one single hook in the ceiling (special bolts, they can hold a man's weight each).

Perfect clear sound blasting right onto me while mixing :mrgreen:

[groffhibbitz]

you can buy those silver stands at bed bath and beyond or linens and things I believe

[Yao]

How is that CD-deck man? I'd rather have the CDJ-800's, but for savinf space those rack cd decks might not be such a bad option either if they're an good ;-)

holy digital lifestyle :shock:

[hansh20]

yeah... i was wondering the same, do you really need 3 plasma screens over your desktop?

[DJB]

Yeah, its kinda over the top but during football season its great. 3 different games at one time. :p
Also "Yao" its a great CD mixer. I love how you can make pitch adjustments on the fly without using the pitch bend buttons. You can really make amazing fine tune adjustments with mixes sounding extremely lush. All my mixes are now done with the CMX-3000. No more vinyl.

[neoee]

sunny, i have one of those silver stands too. only much bigger. it was in a pizza shop i worked at. held thousands of unfolded pizza boxes. very strong. have had my gear set up on it forever.

I got it at Lowes or some hardware store, i forget. But yeah strong and reasonable priced.

MJ- they came with the house, eventually I'll get around to changing them. :D

[Caley Martin]

choo talkin' to me?

Caley Martin, that bedroom is pimped out. Awesome setup guys... I'm in the market for "Cheap cheap cheap" cdj1000s. I wanna post here, so gimme ideas :)

I like that shelf.

[Yao]

Why does every goddamn mofo have a Xone:92 over here except for me huh???

[jeffrey collins]

Caley, yeah i'm talking to ya dude!

Tej, awesome set up bro!

[Caley Martin]

the only thing coming out of this studio for the moment are DJ mixes... I have dabbled in two tracks thus far and am not motivated to push myself just yet, haha...

[djveo]

[Only registered and activated users can see links] ([Only registered and activated users can see links])
This is my setup ... thank to IKEA for the table....

[Caley Martin]

IKEA rocks, they have some really functional furniture there... such as that desk

[Jibgolly]

veo how much $$ is that table? i really need something more practical than what i'm using.



[Only registered and activated users can see links]

[djveo]

150... 164 and change with Ca Sandiego sales tax

[djveo]

in order to get that thing to tilt you need to not screw in the front screw on each side of the upper shelf instead just pass it through the next hole down ... also i added a piece of 1inch aluminum angle stock to keep if from coming down under "Rythmic Vibration" ....(nobody better steall that phrase)

[Jibgolly]

nice, i just noticed the little piece you bolted on there. good idea. although for my "prone to slice myself" ignorant ass i'd probably go for a small piece of wood there. the price isnt bad either. is the height of the desk adjustable?

[Ben Pound]

It's o.k. to not have things all placed at 90 degrees... think octagonal.

[Caley Martin]

that's outside of the box Ben.

[djveo]

The height is very adjustable .... im 6ft tall and it can get my ars to just above parallel to the ground reall comfortable

[jeffrey collins]

damn steve, when did you get that lawler banner...awesome.

and -2 for having oakencrap on your laptop Veo.

[dannygroov]

I'm getting my dj equipment within a week. I never realized I gotta do some serious remodeling in my room to fit everything. I'll tag this thread for later. SO far, Caley Martin is my favorite. Nice room too, nice wall color.

[djveo]

Ok ok Oakie is not what he use to be and i have not had the urge to buy anything new from him but a buddy over in spain took the picture of the poster on a light post and he was playing the same day as my B day ... not that it matters i just thought it was a cool pic i now sport one of palmers desktop on it

[shan]

I really like that setup man. would you have a link for it please?

[shan]

its ok I got it :-)

[Only registered and activated users can see links]*15872*16131

[Jibgolly]

damn steve, when did you get that lawler banner...awesome.

a few years back when Lights Out 1 came out Lawler rolled through Atlanta with Jonathon Lisle. well we were pretty drunk and it was a four man operation of getting that banner. at first we started removing the tape slowly as it hung from a balcony we were chilling on. security noticed it was sagging and immediately came and applied more tape. well an hour or so later four of us positioned ourselves on this thing... i looked around and gave the order, Red Team GoGoGoGo. we got it off the balcony in a matter of seconds, i balled it up and shoved it in my cargo pants pocket and made my way down to the dance floor very quickly. made it home safely and i've had it ever since.

:lol:

[Yao]

^^lmao, that is priceless man...gotta love a little vandalism from time to time! However, my traffic signs collection isn't nearly as cool as that one banner...

^ and you laugh at me. :CrackUp:

dont you know what those speakers are doing to your sets? sitting on the same table.
if you dare record that way the vibrations are being read by the needles and through your recording.
at least get them up on some speaker shelves or books or something.

btw, what mixer is that?

[Caley Martin]

it is an Ecler Nuo 5

XONE:32 & (2) 800MK2's

woo hooo!!
ENVY ME, you know you want to! :) :) :) :)

[BureOne]

Nice!... hehe.
I also recently purchased a Xone:... 62 though and ONe 800MKII. Thinking of getting the 2nd one but will wait till maybe summertime.

Wish I had a camera to take a pic of my set up. 8)

[FM]

2 CDJ-1000 MKI's here...2 weeks and counting now I've had 'em...took me about 4 years to reach that goal :lol: :lol:

[BureOne]

^ do those play Mp3's?

[Caley Martin]

no

[xeb]

ok excuse the hastily pasted togeather photoshop job... my studio ain't big enough to actually stand far back enough to get a decent picture :lol: (this is a 90 degree 'panorama')

[/URL][URL="[Only registered and activated users can see links]"][Only registered and activated users can see links] ([Only registered and activated users can see links])

[Fangstick]

nice :)

[FM]

only MK3's do...not worth it imo

(and 800 MK2's)

[djveo]

Sorry shan hadnt checked in for a little bit .... thats the one I got though... works awesome

[BureOne]

With my new mk2's, I figure I would only need 2 cd's to play for hours on end. Big advantage from the old cdj's that dont have that mp3 option. The mp3 folder search is the shit, easy to use, just load up your cd's accordingly with like 90 tracks on each one and your set!! :D

[johns]

Looks good brother. Now i have to save up for at least one cd deck. Vinyl is getting too expensive for me ;)

[luxito]

wooo[Only registered and activated users can see links] nice bro.

It feels like I am there.

[jeffrey collins]

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.

[xeb]

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.

[jeffrey collins]

I see what you are talking about Nigel...You spoken with John-Paul Sykes lately? I know he's back over there.

[xeb]

no havent' seen him yet. if you have a new email address for him can you PM it to me?

[FM]

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.

[BureOne]

"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.

[jeffrey collins]

nice set up bro!!!

didn't realize the reply got bumped lower then where I thought it would go.

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)

[Yao]

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

[BobbyJassi]

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:.

[jeffrey collins]

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

[BobbyJassi]

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

[Caley Martin]

it's a very sweet setup

[Miroslav]

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.

[Only registered and activated users can see links]

erm...I mean...:Who:

ok never mind.

[jeffrey collins]

we know what you mean bro.

[Caley Martin]

I have no doubt that it is.

[jeffrey collins]

wait till you see mine. i've just gotta go and sell my mixer and cd players first, then i'll get you a photo of my dj set-up.

[Caley Martin]

that sounds rather prostitute-ish

[ciaran]

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.

[BureOne]

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:

[IuliK]

Not mine, but I bet this is the coolest dj setup ever... Tell me what u think...

Ive actually replaced it already! I have put a Rane Empath in its place, more suits my style of flicking the upfaders in and out, and scratching stuff in, as well as the long mixes.

Still have the 464 - using it for the live PA rig. Might sell to it fund building a custom controller for Ableton soon...

Haha I feel that! :DHow the drivers been for your 3D with ya Thinkpad?

[groffhibbitz]

haven't had any driver problems at all. I've only been using Midi Out of the xone to the computer, and I might have read that going the other way was problematic, but can't remember. But yea, never had the xone or my computer crash... at least I don't think soo..... hmmm...

Actually my computer crashed a few times in the last couple of months, and now that I think about it it was after I got the xone (but also after I moved). but it never happened when the xone was plugged in... I'm not sure if it's possible that it could have caused that...

oh, looking at the xone site looks like they released new drivers! Hope they fix my crashes (if they were even related)...

[marcus wortley]

Had a rewire so did some new picks, its all gear porn:-

I have to ask...what makes a person want to buy a mixer with that many faders and that BIG of a mixer. I remember seeing Sasha in the DH DVD with one of those with 4 1200's hooked up, which was sweet.

Have you checked out the new Urei 2 channel mixers. Really sweet stuff for not a lot of money...faders like glass and full infinity kills on all the eq...makes for some sweet transitions.

[jeffrey collins]

Nice set up Marcus. I goess your really into sound from that straight tonearm on your 1200. Along with all that equpitment.

Let me ask you this,,, how do you like that interface you have...it's the forscrite box right...or is it the lexicon, they both look a lot alike from a distance.

464 has a dedicate monitor path with dual LED read outs. Also the routing is escellent with dual send on each channel. All four mono channels have 100mm VCA throw faders and phantom power. Miss mine O well out with the old in with the new etc :twisted:

Yea the Rega RB250 is sweet I bought the whole deck off Mark out of Sleepfreaks they run a shop called O'brian Hifi in London, I am about the upgrade it to a Origin Live Silver and get Mark to Mod the arm in regards of the head-pickup (Part you pace on your index finger to cue with) then send the RB250 to be upgraded internally :

Should sound even better then, gonna finally get back to two SL1200Mk2's again as thew other is a MK1 as you can see.

As for the Audio interface is a Focusrite Saffire (2 in 10 out), yea I love it and have a second Saffire LE (The black version with 6 in 6 out) coming in a few weeks.Pre amps are fine for encoding vinyl (My main reason for purchase), great sound, I reviewed it for ALDJ here:

2 Drum Machines, 4 outputs on a synth, effects, and a sampler....

Its a performance mixer, not just a DJ mixer.

Who the hell needs two drum machines running at the same time. That's kind of stupid as you can always just have the one for all your tracks. Dj's don't make music complicated enough to need two drum machines. And Richie Hawtin is the ONLY DJ I've ever heard of that uses a drum machine with his sets...least he used to.

The rest I can understand, but there were decks hooked up to it, not synths.

[Pronsen]

ok I'm ganna screw up the great number of setups we've seen so far and embarass myself and put up my pissweak setup:

Laptop with Traktor DJ Studio 3
Echo Indigo DJ sound card
Numark DM1050 Mixer
Sony MDR-V500 headphones

[Only registered and activated users can see links]

[GLD]

better than nothing, huh?

[Caley Martin]

as long as you are DJing, that is all that matters!

[Pronsen]

better than nothing, huh?

tis indeed! I'm just starting out and its the most affordable way at the moment. next step will prolly be a cdj of some sort. although midi pad or controller look nice as well, the new xiosynth looks pretty hot. but thats more production than djing.

[marcus wortley]

Its the music that counts!:D

[shan]

be proud man its yours

Do you use it for production or for performance...or both? it might sound better if you got yourself some better speakers. other than that best of luck to ya.

Umm... are you serious? Ok - maybe this will clear it up. I'm a producer, and a DJ, so I must now be able to handle more than one drum machine at once. ;)

Tell me then, genius, what would be the easiest way to mix from one of your own tracks to another? Oh... right... two drum machines...

Richie seems to be the only DJ the YOU HAVE EVER HEARD of using a drum machine in a mix set. That doesn't mean that there arnt many, many more you havnt. :roll:

The rest I can understand, but there were decks hooked up to it, not synths.

Hang on... I will quote something I have already said to clear this one up...

:D

Also - some other benefits of using a 464 'just' for DJing...

Insert points on the main outs - used for vocal ducking in the radio station.

Separate feeds to a recorder - So you can record the same set, with, and without announcements.

[jeffrey collins]

if i were mixing from one track to another. I'd use my mixer and my cd's.

and you need to watch who you try to flame on here. the guys on here don't put flaming too lightly.

and THANKS for the genius comment...that made my day!:D

Thats a shit mixer, its an old gemini 626; long gone. I know have a Xone 62 + 2 cdj800mk2's

Hi mate, hows things? Yeah i love the mixer. The sound quality is excellent, the faders feel good and the build quality is there. This mixer edges it over my XONE:92 because its so versatile.
I've just started getting into production, so i'll be adding some more kit real soon. :)

[jeffrey collins]

I've been thinking of eventually getting an 800. But i'd like to customize it to where the eq knobs can cut out 100% of the sound. That's one of the things I love about the new Urei and Mackie mixers. But neither have the effects like Pioneer does it. Gotta love that delay.

now I see two dj's with those ecler mixers. You guys must know something.

[First Strike]

Ecler mixers are great i cant relay fault my nuo5 the sound is great the effects are all 99% of people need and its just nice to use big nobs smooth.

Not that i can fault alan and heath mixers i would perfer a nuo5 to a xone 92 .......

[kalin]

[Only registered and activated users can see links] ([Only registered and activated users can see links])

it's nothing special, but I'll be adding more in the near future - two CDJ-800MK2s and a KP3 effects unit. furthermore, there's a desktop on the left running Traktor 3 which I like to use together with the TTs

[Caley Martin]

Glass of champagne....now thats style.

Damn Jenks, that's YOUR place? That is NICE bro. I say with simplicty, that you are the winner.

very nice one, mate, it's always good to see people that still appreciate vinyl =)

[BobbyJassi]

Haha yeah many a mix ruined by over kill on the delay. :D

Yeah. I've even done that in mixes, and those mixes are the ones you'll never hear online. LOL.

Just finished listening to your march promo. Nice mix bud. 8) Do you use an external sound card to record your mix?

[jeffrey collins]

That was probably the last mix that I got to record directly into my MiniDisc. I'm working on a new mix that I'm doing solely in ableton. I miss the spontanious collaging of tracks.

Thanks.

[Miroslav]

nice setup Jenks


is nice indeed... the one thing that I always differ on tho is the whole part about directly facing the wall. Dunno why, but I always gotta turn things so that I'm face out into the room... :)

[Jenks]

i can turn that steel table in about 30 seconds. ;)

:p Yes some vegetation is always great.

One speaker is on top of the record shelf and the other is placed on the other side of the room (in front of monitors) atop another mini shelf of vinyl.

I guess I should have taken pics of that as well. I'll do that later today, gonna bet on some horsies at Santa Anita in a while. :)

[jeffrey collins]

don't worry about it bro. I was just wondering as I didn't see any from the pics. Enjoy spinning on that stuff. In time i'll have my setup back and running.

[TheAudionaut]

nice gear =)

how do you like the PCV-275?

THANKS!!! The pcv-275 is great. its the mixer that i should've gotten first but opted for a cheaper stanton POS. it have the rotary kit for it, so its given me the ability to learn both linear and rotary styles of mixing. at the moment, im at a point where i've outgrown it and want to upgrade to the DJM-800 and add a pair of CDJ1000s this year.

[TheAudionaut]

What speakers are those? :)


they are an unreleased prototype KRK. HAHAHA, yeah i wish. they are a pair of sony bookshelf speakers that i bought for like $100 at best buy. i have no complaints though, they work and sound good, and have a solid low-end punch.

oh and they are sitting atop some old 15" kenwood floorstanding speakers that are about 10 years old.

[BobbyJassi]

they are an unreleased prototype KRK. HAHAHA,.

Lol i would have believed you too :lol:

[jeffrey collins]

if they didn't have the yellow surround in the speakers you could have said they were old Genelecs.

[TheAudionaut]

Lol i would have believed you too :lol:

yeah, most people ask me where i found 3 way KRKs. i wish i could play it off like that, but im just not the type to lie. truth be told, im really happy with them and will not be swapping them out till i can afford some mackie HR824s.

I would love to get any tips from others who have the DJM800 already
