imadje Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 ok, so i've collected all my gear and set it up for one photo.I wouldn't usually have it all set up at one time, mainly because I don't have 8 arms. Anyway in this picture is:2 CDJ 1000 MKII with Numark N2 Mixer (in coffin case, bog standard mixer as this is the unit i use for teaching on.) If required I can set this up with either the powerbook, Dell or Macbook for Traktor Scratch Pro DVS.2 Technics SL1210 MKII with ortofon Pro S carts and needles attached to vestax brand headshells, and Pioneer DJM 909 (these are my babies)Also note the footswitch which lets me add channel specific effects on or off using my foot. <3 the 909 for that.On the Shelf above the Decks is a Dell Inspiron running traktor scratch pro via a NI8. It can also run ableton suite 8 via the Ozone controller/Souncard/Keyboard on the right.Under the Dell is a Powerbook from last century which uses the external screen on the left, can also run ableton 5 using the Ozone and is mainly kept as it has the full Native Instruments Komplete synthesiser software (also from last century) which I cannot transfer to my Macbook due to licensing issues. Its not cracked but i got it as a "not for resale" promotion when I was working in a DJ gear shop and they won't let me upgrade it to my macbook without paying full price.On the far desk is my NS6 and Macbook Pro. This Macbook also has ableton suite 8, traktor scratch pro and Itch 2.1 (beta 40) on it. Basically I use this macbook first for anything wether it's prod or timecode from vinyl but if I am already running it and want some other noises or to record in an external unti I can turn on the old dell and/or powerbook to get access to the sounds/software I want.On the Bookcase is a yamaha MG10 mixing desk through which all signal outputs are channelled. The MG 10 feeds to a pair of wharefedale diamond 8.1pro Active reference monitors for production purposes. I can also turn on the hifi amp and route audio through the hifi speakers if I want to check my reference signals from an end user P.O.V.Hanging around somewhere there is a pair of beyer dynamic DT 150 reference headphones for prod and a pair of AKG k181 phones for DJing.Finally there is a stylophone on top of the hifi speaker. Out of shot is most of the vinyl and there are also flightcases for the technics and the NS6 for whenever I need to move stuff.I know it's not a neat setup but it's all my gear and I've kept it and can get it all to work for the sounds I want without risking doing updates and breaking things that dont need fixing yet. Mine and my wifes home business offices are in the same room, as is the hoover and shit as you can see. I also know my hifi speakers shouldnt be sitting on top of my reference monitors but I never have both turned on and TBH prod isnt my main thing, in other words: it works for me the way it is.Somewhere there is a hercules steel controller I sometimes use to add buttons to my DVS.The only thing missing is my MPC 2000XL which I had to sell to get the NS6 and Macbook early in 2011. I do miss it bigtime and will prob get some kind of pads in the future but at the time I had to get mobile and wasn't using the MPC, that's life. Oh and at my mates studio I have a set of electronic drum pads so I can bash out riddims if I really want to using sticks, i.e. the old-fashioned way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
