Have you heard anything about them? I really want to get some in the future (for now I'm sticking to the bright neon orange foam ones! )

do not buy an effects unit before you learn how to mix

waste of money.

why?

learn the basics first...and you can get a 500 for way cheaper than the 1000 if you really absolutely need a useless piece of kit.

shit before paper girl.

Because I'm a gadget whore/noise fangirl and really want the 1000 since it has more effects.

You're right, I'll wait. I had a friend express interest in buying it, though, so if he still wants it I'll buy it from that guy then sell it to my friend who has been DJing/producing for years.

i've had tinnitus since i was a kid, had a bunch of ear infections that caused it. though oddly enough when i get my hearing tested for work, the tests show i have pretty good hearing still. pretty much, there's no cure for it (if it really is tinnitus and not just normal ear wear) and you pretty much just gotta tune it out. it only bugs me occasionally at night.

if you're on a budget, don't get it. like jay said get decks and a mixer first- or if you're REALLY poor, get a mixer first and hook it up to your laptop for traktor with a soundcard that can handle 2x ins and outs, until you can afford decks. efx units are fun but totally unnecessary- and what if you hate djing? waste of $500.

jori you can get a whole dj setup, TT's, mixer, carts, headphones, for $500. i got my first setup for $400. i later got both of my cd decks for ~$500. just shop around ebay or craigslist.

i am a gear whore for sure, but you really don't need to be a gear whore to dj well.

Basically the ones I use for going out are a set of these. Heres a post from earlier in the thread that I wrote.

I got a pair a year ago (not that manufacturer) and I'd say its probably the best purchase I've ever made. I dont care if it looks stupid or if people comment, whenever I'm at a gig or even in a loud pub I pop them in. Theres nothing worse than having ringing ears the next day and these get rid of it by pulling the sound levels down by 15 - 25 decibels.

You dont really notice after a while as your ear adjusts, so you perceive the sound just as loud as everyone else. And no ringing ears even after an 8 - 10 hour gig.

Cost me a fortune, €230 for a pair so they're quite precious, but I'd recommend them to absolutely everyone. Being able to change the volume level yourself in a club is fantastic.

Edit: Funny enough I can hear people talking better with them in, as you can pick out sounds more easily.

The only awkward part is that when you talk, you can hear yourself talking more loudly than normal, as the sound reverberated through your jawbone into your ear isnt attenuated like the outside sound entering your ear is.


Edit: And one interesting thing. If you're wearing earplugs in a standard nightclub and take them out for just one second, purely out of interest. It is bloody scary how loud it is.
