Gig Log - Wedding - Sept. 26, 2009 - Part One (the setup)

[RevolutionDiscos]

hello what is that socket thing called and how much are they

? cheers revolutiondiscos

[iDJPaducah]

Hey! Did you ever have a buzzing noise in your speakers with your Soundcard and Laptop connected? Thanks!

[uptownxpress]

@iDJPaducah Not when I go through the Numark DJ I/O. If you hear the buzzing, try unplugging your laptop, just to narrow it down, often the buzz comes from the power supply. I also now use a Monster Pro 2500 conditioner that would eliminate any buzz if any. But the JBL's have a very slight buzz when turned on with nothing playing.

Nice gig... great job! Like the Scrim King covers

[DjBrianProductions]

ye aman i have a question i wana get a light i dont no if i shold got with the techno strobes the tecno stobes rng or the led showdow wat u think i shold get

[uptownxpress]

well you know I'm a big fan of "washing" the dancefloor, so my opinion for you would be not the led shadow, since thats a black light only, I'm not too sure of the others, but don't limit yourself to just a strobe, but i think the technostrobe can also act like a colorpalette for washing.

[DjBrianProductions]

i lvoe ur setup man do u recomedn the itimidatos 1.0

[uptownxpress]

thanks man! yeah the 1.0's are great as a less expensive fixture, they don't do all the fancy stuff of the bigger scanners, but for the price they do a great job and add that look to your light show.

[DJCD01]

the two big parties that I have scheduled had to end up getting only 1 screen because of lack of space. Just got through looking at the rooms. It will still be a cool setup the way I will set it up.

[uptownxpress]

hey, good stuff, you check out your halls ahead, always good! well can't wait, the screen thing is something I don't do, so always cool to learn and see how its done.

[DJCD01]

Turned out great man. The glow skirts really add another level to it. Check out my big show ... I will post after the Halloween Party is over. Should have the 5 ft truss w/ lasers and a 10ft x 7ft screen.

[uptownxpress]

Thanks! Can't wait to your big party! 2 screens? cool!

[mrcpm46]

where did you get the speaker skirts and how much were they?

[bacardioverdose]

Wow your setup looks fantastic. A simple change with the skirts made a big impact. I think you might have made the sister jealous by giving the brother the better setup LOL. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing the detailed setup.

[uptownxpress]

Haha, maybe :) they all enjoyed it! And actually there is still one younger sister in that family which we where all saying I will DJ when she gets married!

[DjFroztbyte]

The scanners were being blocked by the speakers. Other than that, your setup looked sweet!

[uptownxpress]

Ah, yeah, didn't even notice that, good point. The scanners still got good coverage though. But thanks!

[djandrewfelix]

NICE! That setup looks amazing.

[uptownxpress]

Thanks guys!

[djtbone]

killer set up!!! nice and clean!!!!!1 cant wait for the power strip review...

[uptownxpress]

Cool, thanks!! review will be soon!

[millsproduction1]

got to get a hazer the fog is just too much sometimes

[uptownxpress]

Yeah, thats what I've been looking for, I hated the cloud at weddings. I mean its not the Martin Magnum, which is even nicer and less visible, I would sometime rent for big events, which is something I would like to get eventually, but at $800 a bit much for now :) But the one I have I'm happy with it after this show!

[millsproduction1]

Very nice! This is what I would call the less is more version. Very classy.

[uptownxpress]

Thanks for the great comment!

[bangdaho]

Your new set up is Fantastic! It looks great in that space. You know it looks good, I can hear it in your voice :) The power strip is interesting. looking forward to the review.

[uptownxpress]

Hey! Thanks man! haha, yeah your right on that one :) I impressed myself! Yeah, I'll do the power strip review soon, something really neat and essential for dj's to help reduce all the extensions.

[partymastersdj]

[vinnievegas2000]
