Here are tips for beginners to build their DJ equipment in September
For the beginner can get a little 'too wild world of DJing, if you have no idea, and even if you may be skeptical of spending so much money for something that can only be done as a hobby. I have some tips to ease your mind.
I can tell you from personal experience that you have to worry about anything again. These tips will erase all doubts.
We step asideby "DJ in a box of" stuff and go into the construction of a real person with the right set of selected devices.
There first thing you need to ask how and in what capacity, I am with my equipment? What I want to spend? Where can I buy all this material, and in particular what equipment do I need? I have suggestions to answer all these questions and much more.
Suppose you want to be a DJ for all uses. That is, you want to be able to be a club disc jockey and turntablist. Theirenjoy a budget of $ 600. He pointed out that the friend of the musician has the best selection and prices to meet your needs.
But let me clearly. There is no substitute for quality high-end equipment. You are only kidding yourself if you think you can go to the most economical way. If you pick up as a hobby, then this is a good starting point.
Now you want to choose your equipment, but want to make sure you have the proper equipment.
Tips for ChoosingTransmission.
You have to make a list of minimum gear that you want to buy. Now keep in mind the budget. You are only going to buy equipment for your needs to fit TTX1 turntables Numark turntables like the Technics SL1200 MK2 turntables, and out of the picture. I save that for the experts.
Two turntables.
Stanton T.60 Direct Drive Turntable with Stanton 500B cartridge.
Remember, you need DIRECT DRIVE turntables. They offer the best torque for cueing records. The StantonT.60 Direct Drive Turntable has enough power to start.
Special Note: The Stanton T.80 Turntable Direct drive costs $ 249 and offers more features, including digital technology.
So, for this tutorial, you can go with T.80 or pass this budget.
*** These turntables have straight tone arms, that are designed for scratching. If you want to scratch and mix, you need something like the Stanton ST-100 or Numark TT 500, S-form of updateArms .***
I'm using the T.60 in the interest of the club budget remaining.
Their total cost is $ 399.98 so far for the Stanton T.60 Direct Drive Turntable.
Two non-slip mats in dollars $ 20. Get the Stanton DSM-6 Yellow on Black Slipmats with Scratch Disks.
You can make your on-slip mats of felt for about $ 5. You go to a local fabric store and about 2 yards of fabric felt.
Make a row instead of on the felt, manufactured in line with chalk or a fabricMarker and cut along the line you just made. Presto! A costume made perfectly usable mat.
By the way, you know the plastic that comes to your vinyl? Cut a piece the same size as the anti-slip mat. Place the dish on the first, then place your own mat for more. I found that the friction even more.
Two cartridges.
In this case, no need to buy cartridges, because they are already mounted on the shell head with the Stanton T.60Direct Drive Turntable. So probably saved another $ 160 on a pair of cartridges.
Follow the manufacturer's guidelines for installing the cartridge. There are different settings for turntablists tone arm and club disc jockey is.
A mixer.
The MK2 Scratch Mixer Numark DM1002X.
This mixer costs $ 99.99.
Enter the mixer slowly. Learn how to maximize all the features, capabilities, how to build them. Next, you should try to experiment with music and cuttingdifferent settings of the mixer. Try to develop your own unique style.
So far the total for the construction of the set is 539.97. If our own mats to save you $ 40. In order to bring the total to date of $ 499.97.
A pair of headphones.
Since it is possible to have more than $ 200 you spend the better to see a mid-range headphones.
The Technics RP-F550 headphones Technics are low-end model, but they are mid-range for many other manufacturers. They cost $ 49.99.
TheirHeadphones should be easy to reduce fatigue ear and closed ear design to avoid interference from the outside with your mix.
Provided you have the possibility to set up your stereo as a system should be strengthened.
E 'for your total beginner with non-slip mats 549.96. With non-slip mats Their sum is $ 589.96. Did I mention free shipping? If you use the card you can save additional 5% ASCAP. And if you buy from b-stock, you can save up to 57%.
This isRight on target with your budget from $ 600. Not bad for building the first set with a different tool.
