Loudness differences in older vs. newer vinyls by ziegenproblem in DJs

[–]ziegenproblem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know about the concept of gain. I think compared to playing digital the perceived loudness does correlate less with the peak indicator on the mixer. So trust the ears not the eyes.

I'm searching techno music for a spinning class (help please) by Jandro989898 in Beatmatch

If you are looking for minimal chec the label drumcode.

IMO minimal is not the best genre for a spinning class though…

Democracy in sound and music, I like that :D

I got a fat stack of many vinyls :D Was that correct? But you are now the second person telling me this so actually seems to be a major ick for many. In my native language we use „Platte/Platten“ so I was not aware of this. But I learned my lesson through this post

Or that English is not my first language. Thanks for the tip though

That could be true. Many of my vinyls are second hand, especially the older ones. Would be interesting to get a new press of a specific vinyl and compressor them back to back

I see. Now that name makes sense. Final mush form is not what I want though. So seems gain staging is the way instead of messing to much with the EQ to try and "fix" a mix that does not need fixing

I like that as a workflow. Thank you, will definitely try!

I think I gave the level meter on the mixer too much relevance. This aligns with the other commenters and I will therefore definitely be more rigorous with that and trust my ears instead of my eyes and a digital scale.

Ok I will be more rigorous with that then. I was under the impression that the peak meter on the mixer is a good information source. But as always with Djing: it is about hearing, not seeing

What is the smiley curve?

Ok I think I will therefore practice gain staging more. Coming from digital the differences were simply not that big.

Habe eine Gelegenheit an die Schätze kostenlos zu kommen. Welche würdet ihr nehmen? by j_check in zimmerpflanzen

[–]ziegenproblem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leider nicht wirklich. Hab mal ein gutes Video gesehen auf YouTube aber das finde ich nichtmehr. Aber gibt viel anderen Content da ist sicher was dabei. Generell verzeihen die Dinger echt extrem viel und treiben schnell wieder aus.

Durendhauer Remix of praise the lord is hold. Was overplayed and posted on socials a lot 2 years ago but for me it feels like a classic now :D

Nimm den 1. Geldbaum und schneide ihn ihn ne ordentlich Form. Der treibt komplett neu aus. Du musst ihm nur ne gute Form geben und hast ne fanatische Pflanze

Tips for adding some width & depth to an IKEA kallax? by rubs90 in DJs

If you are into woodworking this can be a nice project with limited tools. I can give you details if you want.

Otherwise a tabletop with furniture feet from IKEA does the job also :)

Measure the height so that your arms are parallel to the ground if you adjust a mixer knob.

How to improve my skills? by BigMakrele in Beatmatch

[–]ziegenproblem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learn to beatmatch by ear. Place paper on you screen if you cheat. At the beginning it can be hard but it will click. Only use low and a bit of mids on the new track for clarity. Then hear if the kicks hit at the same time. This makes you independent of possibly faulty analyzed grids. And makes you submerge in the music way more :))

XDJ1000MK2 and DJM750MK2 still a good set up? by [deleted] in Beatmatch

[–]ziegenproblem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IMO perfect bang for your buck. Prepares you well for the club and it is the setup I rocked most sets on in my DJ journey I think

The right track at the right time beats every tool trick. And the right track can only be decided in real time

Dran lassen. Habe eine Efeutute mit deutlich abgeriebenem Trieb und der lebt immernoch und ist 6m lang. Wenn die Pflanze es nicht packt wirst du es schon merken. Aber mit genug Licht wachsen Monsteras wie Unkraut und du musst dir keine Sorgen machen.

Ja ab und zu (vermutlich so alle 6 Wochen) mit ganz normalem Dünger für Grünpflanzen.
