Re: post photos of your dj setup here

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.

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.

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...

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...

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.

Re: post photos of your dj setup here

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

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.

Its the music that counts!

Re: post photos of your dj setup here

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.

Re: post photos of your dj setup here

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

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

Its a performance mixer, not just a DJ mixer.

Re: post photos of your dj setup here

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.

Re: post photos of your dj setup here

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.

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:

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
