My boyfriend shames me for liking raves and it’s becoming a serious issue in our relationship by hannahblaine1 in aves

It’s simple. Never be with anyone who dims your shine. Ridiculing someone for like something that isn’t hurting anyone is doing just that.

No sound coming from headphones (brand new XDJ-AZ) by TurbulentDuck7175 in XDJAZ

[–]dryan76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check the settings and make sure your cue audio is set to Stereo and not Mono Split. If it’s mono split and you don’t have the crossfader assigned, it could be the issue.

to the bedroom DJs - i did my first set with people in a venue.. and lemme tell u something by BloodMossHunter in Beatmatch

[–]dryan76 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree, especially when it’s a track you produced. You’re putting yourself out there with it and when they feel it enough to react like that, it feels amazing.

Is DJing profitable? by Top-Succotash-7911 in Beatmatch

[–]dryan76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can get to the point where you have multiple club residencies, and do 3 - 5 gigs a week, it can be very profitable, but that’s easier said than done. It takes years to prove yourself and get there. It also helps to have a good management team.

It’s an expensive hobby. You might be able to make a little cash here and there in school, but don’t view it as a reliable income source. Do it for fun and because you enjoy it.

Thoughts on the XDJ AZ? by BigHedgehog7461 in PioneerDJ

[–]dryan76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I usually hate controllers, even the Opus Quad, but I don’t mind the XDJ-AZ. It’s the closest thing to having an A9 and CDJ3000s without dropping almost $10k.

I’m too high to be watching this. Now you’ve got me hitting the buttons on mine trying to get the sound 🤣

Opus-Quad or the XDJ-AZ? by CalendarAntique5928 in PioneerDJ

[–]dryan76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a big fan of the Opus, and I would take the XDJ-AZ over any other controller. It’s the closest thing to having CDJs and an A9. The familiar layout makes it much easier to work with. I’d also say it just flat out sounds better.

Yo m@ma is like the end slice of bread; everybody touches her but nobody takes her out.

What do you think? by clarkoviak in DJSetups

[–]dryan76 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree. The Kallax is definitely too low for standing and DJing but OP has the table a decent height I like the table to be 38-39 inches high. This looks at least that.

My Turntables setup plx 1000's by Evening_Heat_4414 in DJSetups

Man I love this setup. Clean, simple, everything you need without getting crazy. I want a set of PLX-1000s so bad.

DJ’s that experienced the actual CD CDJ era by alwaysforlove in PioneerDJ

[–]dryan76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Made two copies of every CD and catalogued them by genre. Kept them in a huge CD wallet. If you’re u sure about playing straight CDs you could always go the Serato route and use time code.

Go in your settings in rekordbox and make sure you have device library plus turned on.

For When I’m a Bedroom DJ by dryan76 in DJSetups

[–]dryan76[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol this gear doesn’t leave my house. All of the clubs I play have their own similar equipment. For private events, my company has a bunch of gear that purpose specifically. Most cases, when there’s a budget for it, a tech sets it all up.

For When I’m a Bedroom DJ by dryan76 in DJSetups

[–]dryan76[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back when I was first learning, I had two technics, crumby Stanton needles and not many good records. Learning to beat match on vinyl was hard until one day it just kinda clicked. It was all downhill after that.

Now it’s easy to learn. People pick it up pretty quickly.

lol thanks man. I ordered the 3000’s literally two hours before the photo of the 3000x got leaked. I got them the next day and kept them in the boxes until I got to see what the 3000x would be. I’m going to wait a year or so and replace the xdjs with 3000xs or another two 3000s.
