LOTS OF PICS!!!!

Well here's some pics of my old and new set-up. The only thing that changed was the mixer.

OLD






NEW!!!










My DIY coffin mod so I don't fry the mixer



Contents:
2X Numark TTX1
1X Numark DXM06 replaced with 1X Denon DN-X1500
2X Shure Whitelable carts
1X Stanton DJ Pro-2000S phones
1X Odyssey coffin

Nice setup Wraith!
That Denon mixer sure does look nice. I can imagine it's a relief and so much more fun compared to your old mixer .
Which 12" is that spinning there, looks like something from Lost Language.

Thanks man. Yes the mixer does make a big difference. I've just got it yesterday and have barely mixed anything at all on it. I'm still messing around with the effects and the sampler. Excellent mixer IMO. As far as the record goes you're close, but not correct. It's Filterheadz - Yimanya on Holon Records. The logo is similar to Lost Language.

My rig:
- Toshiba A33 2.8 GHz Pentium 4, 60 GB 4200rpm HD, 512 Ram, 533 Mhz FSB, 15 inch SXGA+ 1400x1050 screen. This computer is discontinued but the Dell 5160 can be ordered in a similar configuration.

- Echo Indigo DJ PCMCIA soundcard (24 bit capable). Has 2 stereo outputs, one to the external amplifier, and one for headphone cuing. Produces very clean sound, so far I can't tell the difference between my vinyl and the same music I ripped to Wav files and mp3 files. However I haven't yet been able to hook up to a big amplifier as I'm in a small city with only 2 clubs and the music is all top-40 etc played unbeatmatched from CDs and the club owners don't want anything different.

- M-Audio Evolution X-Session UC-17 Midi controller, configured like a 2 channel mixer with cross-fader, EQs with kill buttons, and filters. Used to control the software mixer in Traktor. This unit (or similar devices) is the key to making the computer respond easily and intuitively to your DJ intentions, so you are not always looking at the screen and clicking the mouse.

- And of course Traktor 2.53 by Native Instruments (legal version). The system runs solidly for hours on end with rare hiccups.

- Sennheiser HD 280 headphones, I like their sound although not a lot of bass. The headband is cracking at the ends (again) and I will need to get them waranty fixed soon.

The table is made from 1/2 inch plywood and 1/2 inch steel pipe, and aircraft cable "guy wires" are used for extra stability. There is a small fan recessed into the table top blowing air at the bottom of the laptop for extra cooling on hot nights. The table is about 43 inches high, near elbow height when standing. The table needs to be high so you are not bending over and you can interact with the crowd. So far the crowd is just a few house parties but I can get people moving!

The laptop and all accessories fit in a softsided case, total 17 pounds. The table is quickly disassembled into 3 pieces for the car.

When I got interested in DJing I figured I would probably do it as a hobby, so I picked the software route as best for me and potentially with a lot of new technology to come. Also I did not want to invest in a lot of vinyl that would wear out and be hard to store, retrieve & transport, and the TTs & mixer are bulky. I've seen some great things done with vinyl but really, most amateur and pro DJs are never going to go that far or want to get into turntablism, and a computer is a worthy alternative that can allow them to play an excellent set, better than what they would be doing on turntables.

Clean!!!^^

um, where are the 1210s? and how do you like the Ecler?

I do apoligize for my camera quality (my friend's camera is 10x better) anyways theres everything...the EFX-500 is coming on monday so I need to wait on that..

-theres the pic of both the 1210's to whomever is skeptical...the reason why I am using the CDJ-1000's is to get creative using them...vinyls still there cant find a long enough table to fit everything

-the nuo is great! I love it, however I had to call 3-4 different places to find one that will ship to united states

-my headphones are the technics DLZ-1200s...they come with the L shape headphones adapter...

-My laptop is not in the pic but anyways feel free to ask any questions.

It's funny cuz i know i said before i wanted ur setup and i just got my ttx. Now i mwaiting for the guy to pick up my cdjs i sold so i could buy serato which is what u just got. We think alike. Lol. Let me know how serato is and how it works on ur laptop.

never had a problem with it bro
i cant believe that anyone would get final scratch over serato....
just the best buy i did this year
laptop is 1.5 centrino 512 ram
next to is my desktop and i am streaming the files through the network
works perfect
i will change those speakers though coz they sound like shit (got them just today from a mate)

im not too sure about getting it. 2 issues. 1) FS2 is coming out, supposed to be good. 2) do i really need serato? im only a bedroom dj

got some new stuff...the setup is almost complete!

mmmm, Ortofon Concorde Night Club...actually theyre Concorde DJ's, one with a Night Club stylus and one with a Pro stylus...but my friend gave them to me for free so I'm not complaining


finally got my second Numark TTX1. I have sort of a mutt setup...Stanton RM-THREE mixer, two Numark TTX1s with Technics slipmats and the above mentioned mix of Ortofon carts/styli, as well as a Shure M44-7 for scratching.

liking the setup, esp the design with the coffin and light and stuff

thanks

the "coffin" is built into the bed frame. it would be cool if i could lift the whole thing out to take downstairs for parties (i live in a fraternity house) but oh well.
