While I don't dj in vinyl i still have a passion for it! Here is a little contest that may be of interest - I have one of these units and highly recommend it. I am not affiliated with this in any way:

Great course, played it many times but really really small clubhouse which got me worried when I got there. This one comes with a bit of a story. I was doing a wedding (see Wedding Giglog for the posh Royal Victoria Yacht Club this past summer - July). While I was setting up for the wedding this...

Just built this yesterday - works pretty slick!

My nephew (who followed me into the Navy and is now posted here as a young Naval Officer) just bought a Phantom IV drone which is an amazing piece of kit. One of the wedding venues I have done is literally 5 minutes down the road from my house and a frequent dog walk as the castle is surrounded...

Was requested to do a wedding vow renewal party in early June. They asked if I could do Music Bingo and I said I would look into it. I am running VDJ8 on PC (with full video capability). Is there a quick and dirty app or Music Bingo Kit to get into this without breaking the bank? If too onerous...

Anyone know much about these speakers? There is a pair listed on our used eqt site for $325 each or $600 CDN which seems to be a fair deal. I have a DJ Business Buddy who has three pairs and swears by them. I did one gig with him and they sounded pretty good - only thing I wasn't crazy about...

A documentary everyone who has a love for music should watch. Saw it on CBC's "The Passionate Eye" last night and all I have to say is Wow! View: https://youtu.be/i1tHfaqoVxo Then I got the music - Double Wow! View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKFkc19T3Dk (My fave) His most famous...

Here is a cool little 1st attempt concept graphic I did up with Adobe Premiere Pro for a wedding I am doing this weekend. I took an open source HD video snippet of falling roses and supeimposed a grapphic I did from a free online monogram maker in *.png format with a transparent background. I...

Need some advice. I have a Hercules RMX2 controller which I love love love to use use. Here is the rub as I do have some trust issues with it which is why I am considering an upgrade. The problem with the RMX2 is that it is not a stand alone mixer/controller meaning that it "requires" a laptop...

Wasn't planning on doing much on the DIY front until well after the summer/fall busy season but this one grew out of necessity after some learning curves with projection options. I had originally hoped to have this completed by the cottage barn burner I did last weekend (see my 15 August Giglog...

This was posted at the end of a discussion on small subwoofers I was involved with but thought this would be an interesting stand alone post in the DJ Gear section for those Do-It-Yourself-ers needing inexpensive covers to prevent damage to their speakers or subwoofers while transporting back...

A great evening where everyone had a good time (according to the Bride). Early finish though which got me thinking - is it me? Nope, that was the plan all along and I was shutting tunes off at 11pm. A pleasant surprise... View: https://youtu.be/cNvmQD9e1-8

Had a great opportunity to go back to my old hangout at the Naval Officer Wardroom (aka Officers Mess or O-Club) to do yet another wedding. Reconsidering renewing my (inexpensive) membership at the club as my day job is less than 500 feet away on the waterfront and they offer fabulous meals...

First impression review of this unit was not very good as you will see by watching this. I subsequently included an update in the review of another mic system I bought which I will include after this. This was a pleasant surprise even though I stand by many of the comments I stated here: View...

This one did not receive favourable reviews in another Forum I belong to but in hopes that others may learn what works and what doesn't, here goes. Part 1 (sorry about the orientation - new phone trial and falls under the what was I thinking category): View: https://youtu.be/iNIug5zmfAc

As mentioned in another thread I posted in the "DJ Gear" section of this forum on facades I built, this is a series of lighting related projects I undertook over the Christmas Holidays. Some were a success while some fell into disuse and/or were subsequently re-purposed. I will try to do them in...

Will start with my version 2 Facade here because version one was incorporated in a 5 DIY Lighting Project I did over my Christmas Holidays after the Xmas Party season. I will post that in the lighting section of the Forum because, as you will see it has a more lighting oriented theme...

Been looking for a DIY section in these forums to post some DJ/VJ related DIY project construction videos I have done in the past if there is any interest? I am gathering I should just post under "DJ Gear" and /or "DJ Lighting & Effects" depending on the content? Being a complete newbie on this...
