How to Become a DJ : How to Hook Up DJ Equipment

[TheCalikiddd]

CAN ANYONE HELP ME PLEASEEE!! iVe been asked to dj a club. But ive been using my equipment since i started. ive seen dj's bring only there laptops . But what i need to know is do i have to use the clubs equipment/ program?? i dont wanna suck on someone else's equipment. please help!!

[dablock2k3]

@TheCalikiddd you can used your equipment and i advise you 2..all you need to do is plug in with the club equipment.either they have rca or 1/4 inch plugs coming out the amp going into the mixer tell the club to invest into a behringer eurorack,.that way they can always have the two main plugs you need to plug right into your mixer with no adjustments whatsoever.everything you need is right on your mixer.highs lows...bass...i invested in one of these because most dj's cant hear

[bocajrthug106]

just purchase speakers with built in amps!!!

I have an old stereo system that I found scrapping, it's a Onkyo 200 watt tuner/amp/ AKAI graphic e.q. with my cd,dvd,vhs player and Kenwood tape player. however I can't figure how to hook up the e.q. it hasa 8 jack's,play and record for 2 tape players and 4 for a"line" what is the "line " for and ow can I hook it up to the tuner,and if I do can I use it for the whole rack system?also ...and/or am I right in thinking that whoever had this before just used it, AND you can only use tape player

[leadsolo]

awww.... sad i never had such tuition when i began spinning way back when - Yet this is sweet ;)

[bammjjj]

i have a rca output on my mixer can u do a vid on that

[jackmylantern]

well how would u find out????? douche

[armandojocelynchua]

Hey how do you hook up an equalizer to the Yamaha Rxv663 which doesn't have a tape input and output. It only have md input and out. Can I hook it up there instead?

[dix441]

questions about sound can i hook it up to a tv?

[DJBRISK1]

Can you show us how you can connect a consumer amplifier to the mixer?

[PABPrankCalls]

ah, so these videos are for people who don't like to read owner's manuals.

[servenx3]

[BXNYhardstyle]

WTF is this Micky Mouse SHIT!!

[MrZ0R0Z]

[retrorenji]

[crowman131]

gay

[xRxAxTxOx]

this guys talking way too fast, and is using terminology that is way too technical. for me at least

[docshuck]

holy shit this is rocket science!

[dimebagforrest]

What's with the fuckin' paragraph all over it.

[xMrAngelZx]

if this is a video for beginners, please use beginners equipment.

I don't think that beginners are going to buy themselves expensive pioneers

[e5hansej]

how old are those CDJs?

[stepminestepminestep]

people that have debates on these comment areas are the lowest scum of the universe. you do get that right?

[andypandy54321]

i think if you cant connect dj equipment youre probably in the wrong feild trying to be a dj

[duhd999]

Everyone has to be taught how to hook shit up....or were you born with knowledge of a sound engineer? That would be like saying if you dont know how to beatmatch, bassline swith, double drop, or eq than you dont need to be in the feild of being a dj!

[andypandy54321]

nope, im pretty sure this stuff is common knowledge/common sense. like i said, if you dont know how to hook up a stereo, you are probably not the best person to be dj-ing

[duhd999]

you still have to be taught about shit for it to become common knowledge/sense, and u are right about if you dont how to hook up a stereo than dj-ing isnt a good fit for you, but when u r talking about amps, powered monitors, mixers etc than thats a bit more than just a stereo.

[andypandy54321]

whatever, its all the same, not trying to get into a debate

[e5hansej]

@duhd999 I was born able to see colors... In my case I put the orange into the orange because I use digital coax. I also realized that when I put the orange into the orange labeled 1, sound came out of channel one when I turned up the volume on channel 1! I had zero experience with DJ equipment, bought my rig, and had it set up within 5 minutes working perfectly fine.

[duhd999]

@e5hansej So is this before or after you started fisting yourself?? The title of the GD vid is How to Hook Up DJ Equipment and there has been 30,000 hits so it seems that not everyone sees colors as well as you do. And I have a feeling you spin some pussy as trance or some shit just by the vibe from your well timed post. You should start a DJ school and name it "DJ school for people who are born able to see colors good"

[e5hansej]

@duhd999 I spin electro house. And what do you spin? Nothing: because you still haven't figured out how to hook up your Stantons to your Neumark? This is the worst series of how to videos on the web. If I had no idea what I was doing I could figure it out faster guessing than watching this shit.

[xxsuperslickxx]

at 0:58 you can see he almost put the red rca into a white output... hah idiot

[marcoastin007]

twat

[lag37]

and where do you buy all of that stuff

[305emo321]

wat about if u have a mixer with rca cables and an amp with jack inputs...how does that work

[Proaudiostore]

You must bay or make an RCA to JAck cable

[theycallmen8]

u wud have to by madulator/adaptors...around 5 to 15 bucks depending where u gettem...radioshack, walmart, guitar center, where ever

[reaper7695]

[smacpack532]

where do you get all of your music?

[Brizzle909]

twat.

[rcsman1]

im glad that you showed us how to setup on of the shitties sounding systems, you play of that be prepared to sound like shit

[rish000]

well, for people actually watching these videos such as us beginners we wouldn't know that. So why are you here watching it?

[TheBiblemen]

@rish000 even when your a beginner and you have a set you should know how to set it up. Why would you spend money on something you dont even know how to connect

[lollyrocks14]

je n'ai aucun pénis

[lollyrocks14]

HA! type ( twat . ) in the coment box and lisen to the preivew.lol

[lollyrocks14]

also he is a twat

[lollyrocks14]

if u have equipment like that then u shouldnt need to be shown how to set it up .LOL

[Viny8u]

my mixer doesnt have balanced XLR outputs and theres a hum through my speakers because of this. if i plugged my mixer into a regular mixer would the hum go away?

[djkillah215]

[jewelzstolen]

[heyhayo]

[pugsley0134]

Can someone tell me if ACID Music Studio is good software to learn on??? I am mainly wanting to learn Electronic/Techno

[watchingyourvid]

i think you should download some demos on different softwares and see which one you like best :) tip: virtual dj is a good software to begin on or traktor

[KHAOSSHUFFA]

Haha.......banana plug.......

[djsareawesome]

and something they didnt tell you, you should turn the micer on first and then the amp, and allways turn the amp off first as well, to avoid pops and harmfull surges.....

[djsareawesome]

y are they using sterio inputs and a mono amp ok.....

and the CD players and stuff is good quality but these people allways have shitty amps and spkrs

good if you need to know how to plug an in int an out tho XD

wow

[djsareawesome]

er tha amp in this vid is ok but the spkr man behringer, wow....

[jamesrossceller]

he used the mono XLR output plug, as he only pluged into one speaker stero is pointless

[terryjordan00]

vinyl is better than cd.... XD

[fourtyfrets]

Thanks man, very informative!

I was waiting to see a demo. :)
