OK I played the 4 hour set of my life last night... flawless mixing, perfect progression from dark prog to peak hour prog... it was fucking gorgeous, i blew the roof off the place, plus on a mixer i never used before.

only problem was there was practically no one there to hear it... i had the people that were there going nuts when i started going into the peak hour stuff, but that was maybe 15 people, tops.

you guys ever have a similar experience?

well since i'm a bedroom dj i can't say the same as you... but that always happens - i'll play a fucking amazing 2hr set or something and i don't record it. really shitty feeling

^which is why its a good idea to record every time your on your tables. my buddy always does that....not a bad idea if you ask me

My closest experience is bangin out a hot set (with records I hadn't played previously, nonetheless) only to find that my MiniDisc had stopped recording about 40 minutes in.

On top of that, the 40 minutes that I did get were crap. The Disc was so messed up, the player sounded like it was skipping every 2 seconds or so.

I mean, I hit this one transition and it left me with a huge shit grin on my face. I'm thinking "I CANNOT FUCKING WAIT TO HEAR THAT!"
So I check the player to see how long I've been going and how much time I have left, only to see that it had shut off and stopped recording.

MAJOR disappointment.

I aint much of a deejay so I hardly ever do but there have been a few times where I've played a really nice set that no-one hears but me. But I usually record my sets just in case a miracle happens like that so other people can hear it or if I wanna see what I did right.

i would record my sets if i had a xone 92, unfortunately im using a shitty behringer vmx300 right now, cant record shit with that mixer.

line out -> line in on soundcard = record

don't see why using a behringer deters you from recording, mate of mine has one and it records just dandy.

i dont know how ur mate handles it, but with me i cant make smooth transistions with the vmx 300. i think its the shittiest mixer ever. i dont know why i have it. im saving up for the xone 92.
