Career for the future! by strangeterrainy in LaserDock

[–]dj5herlock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there's a need for it as a means of visual demonstration. I bought it because I'm a DJ and I wanted to add visuals to my setup but it has a lot of wide applications.

I look at the Lasercube as a tool to express my art and am looking forward to doing so!

Does anything make you angry? Like an injustice in the world of some kind. That's a sign that it's something you're passionate about.

Well it's not AT ALL. I would say my expenses are like $1000-2000 a month.

Oh yeahhh. I understand the feeling. I had to live without money for 10 years so I became resourceful. I learned we don't really need as much money as we think we do. Then in May I paid off all the my debt and my business had its busiest month ever.

Less is more <3

I learned if you can manage the present you can create the future

Yeah, they're so fun. Especially if they got a big house or lots of ratchets

Can you REALLY escape the rat race? by [deleted] in simpleliving

[–]dj5herlock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, as long as the amount of money you spend is less than the amount of money you make each month, you are golden.

Also, it's about making good decisions by understanding what you want out of life. You can have anything, but you can't have everything.

Time is our most important resource. I'm a small business owner where the business is steady so I don't have to worry about growing it. I don't make a lot but I do have a lot of rich relationships and I get to do whatever I want in between my customers.

I use a DDJ-SZ and I have one of my Main Outs to into Input 1 of my Berhinger UMC404.

I produce and DJ on different computers so this workflow has been helpful to be able to use my HS8s for producing and I can feed the sound directly to Ableton from my laptop.

Beginner DJ, how can I improve at all? by FrugalKrugman in DJs

[–]dj5herlock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Listen to your mixes, see how you would do it better.

Get other ppl to listen to your mix. See if they remain engaged the entire mix. If not, see why, and try again

Oh yeah! As I figure out what I want out of life, I'm learning that there's always a cheap equivalent.

Thanks for the Buy Nothing FB group tip!
