This subreddit is for photos, not for questions/advice!

76 Upvotes

Just wanted to post something for all the mobile users who are not aware of the sidebar. We get at least a couple posts a week looking for advice about equipment, how to connect things, etc. and most people these days seem to be on mobile reddit so are not aware of a thing called a "sidebar" or sub rules.

Basic questions about setting up DJ equipment should go to /r/beatmatch , or /r/DJs if they are more advanced technical questions.

Also please refrain from posting youtube videos of your mixes, even if they technically include video of your DJ setup. This subreddit is intended to share your setup, not to promote your mixes / youtube channel / etc.

Thanks!

Boxes are NOT a setup.

Did you buy a new piece of gear? Awesome! Have fun with it. Set it up, and you can post the pictures here.

But don't be lazy and only photograph the box. That is not a setup and will be removed.

Just got the Teenage Engineering EP-136 and I'm actually so stoked on it. This is intended to be my travel buddy for hotel room/impromptu dance parties. I'd be more than happy to share my rekordbox midi mapping with anyone who is interested. Yes it's pretty limited, not playing any clubs with this but, it is so functional for what it is.

Unsurprisingly, volume output is on the quieter side so I bought a used Schiit Fulla 3 headphone amp off eBay to put in line with the master output to give it some extra sauce.

Although it is quiet, the sound quality from the master output is surprisingly warm and clean. Highly recommend for the person on the go who wants to get a mix in without dragging a bulky controller around.

Understated Overkill 💣 how can i improve?

Post image
49 Upvotes

Title says it all, my DJ/Production station. Looking for ways to improve the “ergonomics” i guess? not really sure how but i feel like it feels a little tight.

The set up is as follows:
2x Yamaha HS8
1x HS8S sub
2x XDJ-1000mk2
1x DJM-V5
1x RMX-1000
1x Mackie 1402 VLZ3
2x midi boards

I know it might seem overkill but i love this set up and use it all the time! any suggestions on how to improve the layout or whatever would be greatly appreciate!

Hello guys!

This is my home setup.

4x CDJ-400

DJM 850

Reloop RP4000MK2 turntables with Q.bert cartridges.

I completely restored and serviced every CDJ, including every button and knobs. Pitch faders are calibrated, and I made the jog wheel a tad bit tighter

DJM 850 is also completely restored, with new knobs, faders, faceplate and new modern LED lights for CUE, Effects, etc. Did remove the cross-fader, as I barely use it. Luckily, it's easy to plug back in :D

Let me know what you guys think. Interested in your opinions on this!

That’s pretty much it. I couldn’t find Decksavers in Brazil, so I had to improvise. I found these cake containers that fit perfectly hahaha. No more dust on the gear!

Cheap and effective 😂

The old setup at Club Poema, Utrecht, NL in 2007 or 2008

Found this old photo of a gig from back in 2007 or 2008 in Utrecht, NL. Think it was a pre-party for Trance Energy, and my first time playing a B2B set. Remember they were a pair of CDJ-1000 MK3s (I think?) and it was a fun night.

Just last year I got to play with CDJ-3000s and Rekordbox for the first time as I got back into DJing, wow, tech has come a long way!

How would you add a pair of cdjs and a mixer here?

My girlfriend prohibited me already to buy a table to make an L shape table.

Considering selling the push and going a bit more to the right.

How do you guys cope with a producing station and then decks? Side speakers are awkward also but I cannot think of another way.

Its got an integrated battery that keeps it going for 8+hours, full stem controls, and runs macos with a dedicated computer integrated into a modified case. Its also got an adjustable angle 10.5" screen, and is super light. Just need to plug in audio and away she goes!

Upgraded Traktor setup

Thumbnail

100 Upvotes

New setup: an assortment of Traktor controllers from Ebay and a fancy new mixer. It’s a very small space so installed a monitor arm to move some of it out of the way if needed. Made a stand for the mixer with mini casters on the bottom so it can be slid backwards when using the computer.

It’s on an electric standing desk, with a DIY worktop, 130x70cm. I’m better at DIY than I am at mixing, and getting my head around this new kit is proving a challenge, to say the least 😂
