Like always nice vid. I really like all of your custom build cases. Did you also build the case for your mixer and decks? Having all of the inputs on the side is very nice. Well keep up the good work.
Nice power amps Mike , the old school MX 3000 is a great amp ( heavy , but the full size transformer delivers every time ) The 3000 really kicks the bottom end when you run 4 -18's to get the amp down to 4 ohms . Only 1 thing that QSC did on the MX series amps that was screwed up is if you use the 1/4" jacks for your inputs , the tip & ring are backwards from normal . if you don't correct this in your wiring it causes the 18's to suck in instead of push & you loose about 30 % of your bottom end
I do sesonal clubs playing the best of house and electro... but mann never seen a dj this orginized and with a crazy lighting setup as urself bro i tip my hat...
@directsound i must agree with @DJDarku you can do some awesome stuff with the new Traktor pro 2
and if you set all your latency and buffer setting's you will be going well. only you will need an external sound card like the audio 6 dj witch works amazing
but otherwise you always do amazing work Mikey Mike
HI MIKE, first time I've seen the rig and it looks awesome very simple but the light show looks great given me Idea for my new rig When I've finished my DJ studio keep em cumming.
great gig as always, great to see your kids are following in their fathers footsteps as they say. she seems lyk she could be an awesome DJ some day, she aint too bad already
What up Dj Mikey Mike and Dj Kristi. Nice set up, one quick question., on your dmx, are you using a dmx board or computer software? i love your set up the moving heads are badass. keep up the good work- Dj Buddha
great vid mm. hey i would love it if u show how u do ur imputs and how u run ur power cords on the side of ur case. did u do that ur self . could u do a "doing it from scratch" vid on how to do those connections? PLEASE!!
I swear you and brandon have the best luck with finding deals at guitar center. I guess i need to take a road trip to some of the bigger stores cuz ours just don't carry "the good stuff". Great video mike- the setup shots from the back of the room looked AWESOME!
once again another great log keep them coming!!! All though every time i watch your gig logs it makes me want to spend money!!! hahaha once again great job!!!
Does it matter if you put the fan in front or behind the fogger. Cuz I got two nice powerful fans but in the back of them in the center is controls and motors?
Once again great gig mike! i think its time you started looking into doing some kind of laser show, cos i know once you put your mind to it it will be fantastic! Keep up the good work direct sound.
Thank you Mikey Mike for showing your console and setup. The fogger idea is great, I'll have to try that out sometime with my lights. I enjoy the videos a lot. Thanks once again. :)
i tell myself over and over, i'm just gonna go sound active & maybe go dmx next year. then i see one of your gig logs and see how it just steps everything up and i say, "okay... i gotta get into dmx!" lolz great job as usual. i'm sure that you gave them so much more bang for their buck.
out of curiosity, how many electrical sockets are you using to power all of that? you ever have any problems with power???
way to keep it in the family and get your kids out there! i envy that the most!
no I have never had an issue and it is very hevy so lower is better I use a satlight aproch heavy stuff on the botom and lighter stuff on top the amp case was around behind the speakers so its out of the way
