The thing with trailers, is to remember that you need to turn opposite the way you wanna go. Small trailers respond faster to the drivers turns, so it's easier to over-react, overcorrect, and mess up. It's like riding a bike, you never forget.

Man listen Barr, I bought a DDJ 800. I see one of your videos that inspired me to get back into DJing and it was my hard earned money. I got sick during covid and this thing sat in its case for over a year. I finally got to use it and had my first gig booked and I wanted to get familar with the unit. My brother it brought tears to my eyes when I went to scratch and the right Jog wheel started moving around. Well I pulled to see why it was loose and the whole Jog wheel lifted up and it was broken. I found out it is one of the few controllers where the center is held by a thin peace of plastic. I wrote to Pioneer and they basically called me a liar and then I called the repair company and they said 160 per hour times 3 hours which would put the bill over 500 dollars which to me is not worth it. What a peace of trash. Man I am so heart broken man. I live in New Jersey down by the shore and this has been the most difficult last few years of my life. I do not have money to fix this thing man I plan on getting the Rane One, I like the steel thing man these Pioneers are a bunch of plastic and they customer service are rude and nasty people. The parts department sent me the instructions on how to replace that plastic housing that hold the jog wheel together. That is my only option is to try and fix it myself. Pray for me it will take about 3 weeks to get the part. Man I am so hurt. I almost died from throat cancer and have been struggling for the last few years man. I just want to enjoy what life I have left. I love your videos man your the best.

@OscahsSoul 2 жыл бұрын

Barr…about the Evolves. I felt like the speakers weren’t use correctly to their capacity. I have the 50’s and I had an issue with them not hitting like I’d like. So I used the EQ on the speaker to balance them out and you can save the setting as a preset. EQing on your board will be different depending on what type of DJ not just you but anyone maybe. But I found EQing the speaker it self gives you what you need, also be sure to add a mixer between the controller and speakers is a boss move. 🙌🏽

@jeffdubia 2 жыл бұрын

I love the JBL Compact. You gotta use the app. I use my phone to control the mixer section on it and save snapshots based on application, if its a ceremony I just load the ceremony snapshot. When using the app and eq your really able to push the speaker. Bonus, i can power my dual moc system with the usb port on the back with a usb to dc converter cable.

@andrewgrindley6773 2 жыл бұрын

It's not a backup if you don't have it installed and ready to use instantly. When you use gear that is not yours, you should make it a habit to test & use the gear a little before you get to the gig. Murphy Law... As for the drivers for the FLX6, you could always wireless/wire tether (Hotspot) your phone to your mac and download the latest drivers and firmware for any device. My Ultra Pro Tip: Always have an empty flash drive or two in your bag. Great travel video by the way. I 100% agree with you, never combine your power and audio cables together. That column for the wedding is a DJ worst nightmare. I really like the tube position for the wedding. The last last dance for the bride and groom could still be done with people in the room, you really need to MC that the guests vacate the dance floor for the newlyweds to enjoy the last dance intimately/privately together. You may find that guests will respect the brides wishes to have that last few minutes on the dance floor alone with her husband.

Cant wait for the your Maui 44 G2 review. It is on my list next purchase, but not a lot of reviews I can find. I'm using Ev Evolve 50 for most of the time 100 ppl max. Do you think it is big difference with the Maui? Worth the update? Keep up the good work.

@DominicCarterTV 2 жыл бұрын

let's gooooo! It's wild how little this speaker is talked about on the internet. There is one review recently from a guy from the UK. Solid review. But I think the biggest thing that puts people off to the Maui 44G2 is the price. We aren't getting those co-signs simply because it's out of a lot of people's price range. Affordability is a huge deal to a lot of people in the mobile DJ space. I'm still willing to keep my ears open & eyes peeled for this review. All protective cases are backordered for this thing. Curious about customer support in the USA as well. All factors to consider. I use the Evolve 50Ms...huge online community, lots of constant chatter, going down as a classic speaker for mobiles but would like something more powerful without adding subs. So yes I'm eagerly waiting for this 44G2 review

For what it's worth, I have the EON as well, and the biggest thing that SAVES this speaker, is the app control. Using your phone or a tablet, you can easily control all the channels independently at the same time, have a 5 band custom EQ curve on the whole speaker, and also have a custom EQ curve on each channel. You also can easily add effects for vocals for singers on each channel. This speaker is not usable without the app, and you need to try that as part of your gig flow when using it.

I just don’t get the tubes. If I was given a set I think they would mostly collect dust in my garage. DJs are always looking for the next cool effect but tubes? I don’t think so. Did the client pay for the tubes (very bad sci fi drive in movie look to me)? Bunn throws them in for free. I have the EV 50s and love them but I love them lots more when I add a separate sub, in my case I take a Bose Sub2 from my larger system. Did I mention I think the tubes are a very over priced novelty light? The NFT of DJ lights.
