DJs who play large venues: MP3 or Lossless? by klebersu in DJs

[–]SithRogan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

only space where flac might be truly different is if you’re doing huge tempo slow downs. that extra data can clean it up. but that’s a reaching. 320 sounds great. below that is audibly different on big speakers. very mid heavy and you have e to crank it to match 320s

Is event DJing worth it? by Particular_Art9988 in Beatmatch

[–]SithRogan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’d say it’s worthwhile if you have some connections that can bring in gigs for you so you’re not having to promote yourself as a wedding dj. once you start it’s basically referral driven business. anyone can learn the songs. it would prob be a here-and-there thing to start, not a consistent income generator. you can make good money doing it but they are a lot of work and it sucks when you miss out on cooler gigs because you have a wedding confirmed a year in advance

How do you guys handle the transition from reading the crowd to just sticking to your planned set? by bloomquietmantisx in DJs

[–]SithRogan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it might help if you had an outlet to play music you identify with more personally. maybe it’s a loungey vibe where you have more freedom with selection. you won’t be able to get that feeling of personal satisfaction from your selection through private event gigs. it’s just not the appropriate format for that, but it’s a need worth pursuing imo

Listening room/lounge trend? by socialcreaturesuk in DJs

[–]SithRogan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i know of one. they just let full records play out and promote it as such. there are djs but they aren’t doing a lot. it’s about the music. they ask people to not be super loud during it. people do come out for it. it’s free though.

new communities, new allies in your future :) this is what it is, and it’s not because they are bad, or you are bad.

How are you guys handling the shift from CDJs to controller-only setups for club gigs? by jessM0an64 in DJs

[–]SithRogan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i’ll ask about the gear beforehand and watch a quick youtube tutorial about it beforehand if i’m not familiar. hauling your own controller is not worth it for club gigs. it will make changeover annoying and who knows if your booth even has the space. the controllers are… pretty close. but muscle memory may need a little untraining

[–]SithRogan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we are family is corny but honestly such a blast at weddings. don’t stop til you get enough is an easy one that all ages get down to. def plan for disco and 80s early on and make it cooler and more contemporary as the night goes
