i know you dont use computers but what do suggest for hiding wires that come from your laptop to the audio interface and to the mixer. and where do you suggest i shop for nice dj table cloth?
@bboymac84 I am actually starting to use laptop more now.but I still want CD and flash drive back up - gonna pick up the Numark Mix Deck. Most catering halls I DJ provide table cloths and skirts. You can tuck wire in between skirt and table. I also run wire toward me and place it on side of or under roadcase and down under table. hope this helps. You want your setup to look as neat as possible. after your done go on the dance floor take a pic see what you would improve...
I use my laptop out of most of my music. I still use CD's because they're more reliable then files. I quit using cassette tapes 4-5 years ago because the sound quality started downgrading on them.
I use a Hercules RMX midi controller with virtual DJ on a Windows 7 (64-bit) Toshiba laptop and have had a hard time mixing due to BPM misreads as well as jog wheel glitches. If old school works, stick with it. I'm switching back to a Numark CDN-88 very soon. Its computer glitches vs. CD care.
Something I Recommend.. Where ever you have a small area where people could step on your wires... instead of taping them down to the floor and getting sticky stuff on your cables... Go buy all black welcome mats. Lay them over the wires and tape the mat corners down to the ground. It covers a larger area of your wires, if not all so they can't be seen, and harder to be tripped over.
Nice setup, I know what you mean about the computer. The last time I used a laptop at a gig I had a request queued up, hit play, and bham, blue screen of death. So I pressed play on the cd player that had a tuned set to go and rebooted the laptop and had the request ready on the next song. I am going to start using a Mac at gigs but still will have cd players with me, probably only use the laptop for requests I can't find on my CDs quickly.
Where did you get the table skirting?

@TeamJDMiConz After 10 years a woofer finally went. They are certainly worth it. warm bass and dependable. They of course have newer models now.

@EternalSounds I know they have new models but i hear the older ones are better. I search all day for a pair for a decent price
