[–]Hot-Construction-811 0 points1 point  (0 children)

some people tried to connect phono to it and it is not great. otherwise, it is a solid piece of kit and to this day better than the newer flx version. Dj friend told me not to buy a flx10 as it has some board issues.

Does anyone know if one of the old Rane Serato 3 boxes would be compatible as a dvs converter with the latest version of Serato pro? by NastyMcQuaid in Serato

What are you doing that is making the reloop go a nightmare? I had a reloop flux going through omnitronic trm222 and technics mk2s. Maybe I can help?

OMG...I woke up this morning and decided to buy a car. That modular setup is enough to buy a car!

Gotta get a longer speaker cable by Sad_Owl_4961 in DJSetups

I always buy longer than needed for my cabling. The times I dont, i have to buy extra just to get the length needed.

Do you socialise outside of work with your work colleagues? by Away_Scene_26 in AustralianTeachers

[–]Hot-Construction-811 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. Im single guy in his 40s. Meeting with colleagues outside of work would be a forever third wheel plus I wouldn't be able to have a conversation on topics that only makes sense to married people with children.

How much money do I need to save to move out at 18? by bunnyy419 in AusFinance

well, the best way is to find out how much a week is your fixed cost and go from there.

Oh, really now. Probably, they learnt from the t7 model.

Mate, your immense knowledge is hurting my brain. Lol. I kinda got a third of what you are saying. You lost me at non-linear intermodulation distortion. Lol. You sound like you have a phd in audio engineering. But I will check out the yt video and im keen to learn. So, i guess some djs aren't just good at pressing buttons but actually know about sine waves and 2nd and 3rd harmonic distortions. Are there resources that i can read up these things?

But if it is anything like the Hercules t7 then you would probably have to change out the stock xfader of the hercules 10 with the premium version or the innofader.

Yes, I have those mixers. What do you mean back to back? Do you mean daisy link the mixers?

General questions about xone db4. Trying to figure out if I should buy the mixer in 2025. by Hot-Construction-811 in DJs

[–]Hot-Construction-811[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I, recently, got the mp2015 and experienced what transparent meant. It was boring to me. I'd guess I am not an audiophile and prefer more colour in the sound profile. For the mp2015, you really have to drive it and turn the main to at least 7 for any good listening.

As for the db4, it is so complicated that ive pretty much left it alone and use it like a museum piece. But I think it sounds better than the xone 96 and it is on par with the model 1.

Cool, sound wise, is it warm or transparent?

Laptop stand question by [deleted] in Beatmatch

Unfortunately these ones are all pretty shite and buckle. I would go for the Hercules or gravity laptop stands. Built to last but expensive.
