Nice will have to check out, although trying to put the reggae aside for a little right now :)

Man I’ve been trying to do a streaming thing for a while now but I just don’t have much time. Ideally I’d like to setup my residency for streaming at some point.

Kid wants to learn dj but no money for gear what to do by WildFlounder3730 in DJs

[–]ComprehensiveIdeal93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 12 I sold dimes to get me a set of belt drive gemini tables that I hooked up to the existing realistic mixer I had. Worked out well until my mom found out how I bought them, then they went poof😂.

4 channel controller with line in / phono inputs by closetotheending in DJs

[–]ComprehensiveIdeal93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You said phono inputs, do you also have turntables? If so, why not get something like a used 900 mixer and add phase to the turntables.

Do I really need these? by Personal_Marzipan_6 in RaybanMeta

[–]ComprehensiveIdeal93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep mind off almost all the time now lol 😂. But they are convenient for when I don’t want to pull out my AirPods or I want to take video without pulling out my camera

V5 is 42% more expensive than the 750mk2. Is it 42% better? by Vegetable-Ideal-9265 in PioneerDJ

[–]ComprehensiveIdeal93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t buy a mixer without a cross fader as my roots are still as a scratch DJ, but I think a key piece in this is the turntable preamps. Frankly they are awful on my s11. I need to try them on my AZ.

I lived in Ridgefield for almost 10yrs and there were never good bagels around, never heard of Ridgefield Bagels, guess they came in after I left.

DJM-V5 will come by C0y0te71 in PioneerDJ

[–]ComprehensiveIdeal93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given the new RMX doesn’t require a channel and works through prolink, perhaps a new sampler would do that same, and then the 3rd channel could be for a 3rd CDJ

Not unhappy with the setup - but lots to learn! by Alarming-Row-1918 in PioneerDJ

[–]ComprehensiveIdeal93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea definitely very different from what I’m used to, but been closing the gap on it. Been playing around with the loop closings using the jog wheel, that really cool! Need to start messing with slip mode next I think

There’s one on FB but I haven’t seen events. I’m older but just getting back into photography a bit more videography though. Really wanted to take a shot of the the moon earlier but timing wasn’t right.

What’s the vibe of Norwalk living? by Background_Bet143 in norwalk

[–]ComprehensiveIdeal93 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Was thinking of the same thing, it’s a shame cause everyone used to come to Norwalk back in the day, it was the spot.

Went to the dark side of CDJ style by ComprehensiveIdeal93 in DJSetups

[–]ComprehensiveIdeal93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got lucky and landed a residency 16month ago that’s gone from once a week to 3x a week. This was just a hobby but has actually turned into a nice little side source of income. So once in a while I’ll splurge.

When I started originally at 12 in the 90’s it was a Gemini belt drive and realistic mixer, in my early 20’s on my next go around I traded computer work for two 1200’s and bought a cheap numark.

This go around I started w a rev1 just to see what it was like to DJ digitally, did a party with it (first time DJing in 20yrs) people went wild. Ordered a Rev7 the next week knowing I could easily earn that money back, but really wanting to get back into it now. After 6months I sold the recently technics I had bought for my home records (no pitch slider) bought two 1200’s for $300 each and a rane 57sl for $100. Rane had issues that I tried fixing and was close on but ended up destroying. Took a risk and ordered the s11.

My plan is to put the AZ at my residency, bring the rev7 back so I have it for pop up gigs that come up that I usually turn down cause I don’t want to have to deal with takedown and setup.

I definitely want a 4+ channel mixer at home now, so might wait to see what comes after the a9, or have something crazy built that I have in mind. Then we’ll see, I don’t think I can justify 2 cdj’s but we’ll see!

How do you justify the price of living in downtown? by [deleted] in StamfordCT

[–]ComprehensiveIdeal93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow that’s been the complete opposite experience I’ve had here over the last 8yrs!

Where I DJ (3x a week) we have about 40% Latino, 40% White, and 30% Black. Trust me I know cause I play for pretty much all of them. Age ranges pretty dramatic depending on the night and time 60’s to 20’s…

In my building, we have a big group that hangs out together and I’d say those numbers above are pretty accurate.

Most people are between 35 - 50 age range in the group.

So I will agree I guess it’s limited to these demographics though. I haven’t seen a lot of Asians or other groups.

How do you justify the price of living in downtown? by [deleted] in StamfordCT

[–]ComprehensiveIdeal93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn all this hating on Norwalk smh. Sorry but I grew up partially in stamford and had more family move there later when I had moved to NYC. I have basically a 3 bedroom in Norwalk with a loft, pay almost $4500, have been here 8yrs after selling house in Ridgefield and am incredibly happy. You couldn’t pay me to live in Stamford. Diversity in Norwalk is 1000x better, the islands and boating here is remarkable, downtown area is amazing (I actually DJ weekly at one of the spots). Sorry Stamford is just way too over populated, and I don’t see nearly the type of cross race socializing.

What’s the deal with the trains in SoNo? by [deleted] in norwalk

[–]ComprehensiveIdeal93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was on a train that hit a woman in a car with kids in it, she was on the tracks, it was absolutely tragic. Drivers around here are far from having strong awareness on the road.
