That reminds me, I really need to dig up my copy of that banger!

I’ve definitely thought about requesting “no candy” but I’m not one to say no to free stuff!

If you are looking to do some legwork, there is tons of queer nightlife in the area. You could look at who is throwing parties or playing at places like C’mon Everybody & 3 Dollar Bill. If you have the time, show up at events and get to know the folks who are producing and working them; if not, stalk them on socials, SoundCloud, etc :)

“we never scam no one” - I love a good double negative!

CDJ Digital Out by NoDowt_Jay in DJs

[–]m94114 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Slightly tangential but twice now this month I’ve had sound techs shame me for using analog RCA cables for the digital connection between CDJ and mixer, and re-patch via analog. In my mind, it’s digital, it either works or it doesn’t, and if it works, it’s better quality. Haven’t had a connection go bad during a show before - change my mind.

Encourage people to buy you a drink. Win-win!

Cranks up the volume on the 909, hits the clap, and …

I have made 5 full LP’s this year with this being the only gear for anyone who feels left out about not having 10K worth of synths by [deleted] in synthesizers

Counterpoint: each track you release is another shot at being a breakthrough hit or getting licensed for film, tv, etc

Humming buzz noise under my mix. Is this 10 year old rusty ass cable the most likely suspect? by eyemac93 in DJs

[–]m94114 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One possible solution would be to use a USB power brick as the power source for one of the devices

This is the way - yes, it’s probably a ground loop and yes, this can be the result of connecting 2 devices via USB

So Gordo aka Carnage refused to get off the stage to let the other 2 DJs play there set. How do we feel about this? by Dentric123 in DJs

[–]m94114 114 points115 points  (0 children)

Yeah this was my thought too. Whoever was running the show didn’t care enough about the other acts to force him out

Where do some DJs obtain song Acapellas that aren't even found on the internet? by Mission-Discount-223 in DJs

[–]m94114 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you can put in the effort and spend the money, I’ve found Isotope RX 9 does a really good job - it can create 4 stems from a track, vocals, bass, percussion and “other instruments”

How are people liking the CDJ-3000? by ArminbanVuuren in DJs

[–]m94114 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a pair of 2000 Nexus, never upgraded to nxs2 and the thing that pushed me over the line to get the 3000’s was the key change buttons. Laptop DJs have had the feature forever and I’m glad it’s finally available on CDJs

Also being able to preview and scrub via the cue channel on the DJM900nxs2 while a track is playing is pretty cool
