    Test Driving RCF tomorrow. Talk me out of it.

    Hey ya'll. It's been a long time. I've not upgraded gear in years but I'm very close to dumping everything on the market and starting fresh with 2x RCF Evox 12 systems. I'm getting them at cost from a friend who I work with a lot. He's been handling my big shows over the years for large school...

    I have a question about a "money game" from a bride.

    I'm not one for games but this bride said she was at a wedding and the DJ facilitated a game which replaces the money dance. She said the whole room LOVED it. I have not clue what this is and she can't find it online either. Personally it sounds like it's going to dominate the conversation at...

    Denon MC6000 and VDJ7

    Ok. I have some quirky stuff going on. I'll just start with the one issue that is really annoying me. How can I just disable the FX knobs? I have one that it auto triggering an effect and touching the button only works momentarily to shut it off and the effect comes back on by itself. It's...

    What is going on with this DMX Light?

    Intermittency, random flickering. If it's in a macro then the macro will reset. DMX Passes thru just fine. This is RGBW generic Chinese. These fixtures have been great...it's just this one. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PC2caTd9vyE&feature=youtu.be

    "What do 6 Vowels Say?"

    This is a parody of "The Fox". I had some help from my 5th grade students for the wording and the entire show was made by me using Photodex Proshow Producer. There are also some video clips from Pond 5 on here near the end. The bridge to me is funny with the "mystery of Y" flying through...

    13 year old wants to DJ.

    $200 ish budget. The kid is already playing musical instruments. So she is serious at least. I'm suggesting at least a $300 budget to the parents...but let's just assume they just want the software/controller or a stand alone solution. I use VDJ for now but that is out of the question at...

    Peavey IPR2 3000 and 5000 Amps

    Anyone have any experience with these? Reviews I've read on these are much more favorable than the 1st generation amps. It seems that "round 2" of these amps are very favorable. around 3000 watts bridge mono 4 ohm for the 3000 series. 8lbs. DAMN. 5000 series is not bridgeable but has a bit...
