| I was at the Docks last Saturday night (don't ask) and I noticed that the "DJ" didn't really seem to be doing much at all. They also had what appeared to be 2 computer monitors up there, which leads me to think that they use MP3 exclusively. Does anyone know what it looks like up there? I can't believe that such a large place wouldn't use vinyls or even CD's... |

I seen it once last year. But they were using CDs. I have niot been there this year. they used to not seal up the area around the DJ booth but I guess they do now. BTW, was it Danny D playing up there? |

That name sounds familiar.. it was some Z103.5 related event.
The booth isn't sealed per se, but it's raised above the dancefloor maybe 10-15 feet. |

| hmm last time I went behind that raised platform a year ago it did not have any montors for lights. I think that is done in a seperate area. |

Since I used to be a Mgr there I can answer this one - the booth has two sections - at the top of the stairs there is the lighting console with multiple monitors for lighting/camera/smoke and crane functions. One step up from there is the DJ booth - there are CD players which the top 40 and R&B guys tend to use and turntables in the middle. There is one monitor in the booth that controls the visuals. There is also a control for the XM Sattelite channels they use during the day and evening when there is no DJ. I'm not aware of an ability to play MP3s up there.

| ah.. must have been CD's. It was top 40 / hip hop / cheese dance, so no actual mixing required. :rolleyes: |

| hmm still I would not be suprised if they start mp3 mixing one day. |
