erm. No.
I thought I made it obvious this isn't MY setup by placing lots of and in my post.
Also, there are at least 8 MOS labels on this picture, AND I don't think anybody here has "his" private setup in front of a dancefloor.
I just thought it was a very cool pic of a setup.
Also, I posted my setup in this thread already so there was no intention to be a show-off at all...
here it is again:
now go ahead and make funny comments on this one

yeah i think there a whole lot more people out there who want to be djs or who are atleast interested in the whole scene and music but are absolutely clueless as to where to begin. wow... i remember this time last year i thought i was so cool when i finally found atomix. lol... and the first few things i tried to mix were like... darude into a popular atb song or soemthing. hehe.
i think a big problem right now...atleast for me before i began to spin... is that alot of djs have too much pride to take time to talk to a noob. i woudl go out and try to talk to people at small parties who were into the scene but they were so cliquish and the dj was even rude...then there was that awkward moment where he stops talking or listening starts mixing and im kinda just standing there like... i donno.
some people in my hall at school have already walked in to talk to me and to tell me that they like the music but do not knwo where to learn...especially since i live in nashville,tn. im thinking about starting some sort of dj club to educate people about everything becuase i knwo there are plenty more out there who are just afraid or intimidated by people who think they know so much. [sorry i had bad experience trying to talk to...experienced people]
i think TA is really what got me into the whole thing. its really nice to have this sort of connection with people who are exactly like me. well not exactly but its a whole lot better than trying to find a group like this in every day life. thats why i come in so much and try as much as i can to help the new ones. [even though im still realtively new hehe]
hmm where i live all the djs stick to each we all get along fairly well. I even learned to scratch from a few local djs that are absolutely insane...ehehe i remember my first mix it was fibbonacci sequence into expander.......lol i remember when i first got my tables i didnt know you were suposed to use the pitch sliders to slow/speed the record soo i was just using my hands...LOL still cracks me up...least i start with good tunes though(perty much all the tunes on gu13)

I still like to have it rocking. Keep in mind what this music is made for, first of all. Its not made to be easy listening on the radio. Its not made to be easy listening in television. Its actually kick ass in the club. This is what music is. This is the purpose of this art form...to listen to it and let the frequencies actually blow you away. --Paul Van Dyk
