DJ Jay & Pioneer's SVM-1000 at Mobile Beat Chicagoland 2008

got video mixing i think you forgot about mixing audio

[malistiks]

Man i need this toy !!!

Just another comment. Me, I have 15,000+ dvd videos. If you purchase dvd subsriptions from Promo Only for 7 of 8 of the dvd services they offer it would be $2100 per year($300 each for a 12 issues). You could afford roughly 3 years of videos for what you pay for the Pioneer. It is a no brainer. I would rather have the videos.

Lovely piece of kit, but.......

...when I'm at a party, wedding etc. I want to dance, not look a video screens all night, or sit and wonder how its all done, or get into deep discussions on the technique of handling digital images to amaze the crowd. I just want to dance and for that all I need is music, sweet music (as the song goes).

This is top end kit for clubs, raves etc where this type of visual is part of the EXPECTED show, not a mobile.

Just my thoughts.

I argee its a tad pricey but if your a mobile dj and can afford one, maybe it worth purchasing one. Not only will you have a great sound and light show, your had a fantastic visual effect show too. People will pay for this as its modern and different, your mobile dj business will stand out from the rest. Not only can you play photos and videos, you can edit a short video promoting your mobile dj business for example, not only just handing business cards out. A great marketing tool as well!

[briansredd]

You're onto something there. Some of us in certian markets I'm sure can justify the price tag

[TheSinisterAssassin]

Ive only just checked the spec out for this model, holy shit! Worth the cash. Think it would be funky in a turntablists set, listening to scratching and watching a video, be like taking acid!

[djrazormaid]

I have been a mobile dj for years with over 15,000 dvd music videos and I would not buy this because of the price $6000! You could have central air and heat installed in a home for that. Get real Pioneer!

[briansredd]

I understand that & I think Pioneer understands that as well. Having this mixer at this show is sort of like having a Viper at a Dodge Dealership. Nobody can afford it, but WOW it's cool! It's a flagship piece

That being said, can you imagine using that SD picture technique Jay uses here at a wedding?

Video is something I plan on getting into soon so it's intiresting to see all options.

[yvesmdjgryphon]

If I imagine the cost of that mixer, the R&D they had to do for it, and the limited numbers they will sell, I don't think they're getting much money out of it.

[briansredd]

I have a feeling that not many people can get thier heads around that concept.

What people need to start understanding is that Pro Audio items are specialty items. It's not mass produced in nearly the numbers as, say, a home DVD player or a home theater system.

Because of the limited production numbers, limited customer base, not to mention the fact that they need to build everything Heavy Duty for the road, the price isn't so outragous

[DJOmega80]

That mixer would be ridiculous for a wedding.

[briansredd]

Oh it would be cool as HELL to use something like that even if it was just for posting pictures like Jay shows here.

[rattler067]

oh i can understand that... it's all good keep up the good work peace

[rattler067]

i have notice there was no vinyl turntables or anyone using vinyl

[briansredd]

Nah, these conventions are geared twards mobile DJs and most of us are not using turntables anymore.

[jearley2424]

Where this kit is value is compared with some of the separate video setups i have seen that dont offer half of the features this product does. I would imagine the Indian guys loving this! good demo...je

[dvdjjb]

Great video, awesome gear, and as for the DJ- OK......... Great meeting ya Brian I look forward to seeing you in AC in August- djjay

[briansredd]

Hi Jay. Thanks for everything, man!

Hey, let me know when you guys get your flights & vans sorted out.  I think I'll try to hitch a ride if there's room

[DjZix]

Hold on! I gotta pick my jaw up off the floor...

How much mulla for that?

Nice job on ALL YOUR WORK Brian!

Thanks!

Erm prices start from £3,600 in the UK. Couldnt tell you US price - Maybe around the $6,999 mark

[tommyboombotz]

Rumor has it, the SMV 1000 will also make your brain explode!! Be very careful, it happened to me,LOL.

What an amazing piece of kit.

[briansredd]

Oh it's way cool no doubt! It would probably take me the better part of a month to even start learning all the features this unit has to offer

[blueythebogan]

hows the price on this piece of kit tho? pricey as lol, though I could imagine buying this myself actually
