DJTT founder Ean Golden is back with another glimpse into his current DJ universe: outdoor DJ gigs. In the middle of a pandemic, finding the right gear and setup to DJ outside is on the mind of many DJs right now. Here's some of the gear he's using (use these links to support DJTT):
✪ Silent disco headphones packages: djtech.tools/silentdisco
✪ A beach cart like this: amzn.to/3aei2tv
✪ Traktor Kontrol S2: bit.ly/djttkontrols2

I actually own a Traktor Kontrol S2 MK3, it's really perfect for small-scale parties: Good build quality with excellent jogging wheels, compact and mobile without a cramped layout, great minimum selection of features that you actually use, and excellent value for money. It's this combination that actually made me pick this controller over the Traktor Kontrol S4 MK3.

I'm just seeing this now! I've been doing silent disco hikes and dances in nature for a while now... I also have a Meetup group (same name) and planned on doing this during Covid, but there were too many restrictions for how many people could attend. I'm definitely going to start this up again soon... maybe with a second dj (2 channel headsets). More dancing in nature ahead!

Hi Ean thanks for the content as always. I switched to Trakor because of your channel! I see that you're mixing wearing the Silent Disco Headphones, which makes me think that you're not using the CUE function to listen to tracks before brining them into the mix. In order for me to still be able to CUE tracks, I imagine that I will have to use normal headphones plugged into the mixer still? Thanks

Nice video, still I am a bit sceptical at this concept. The event showed in this clip was rightfully staged. Maybe it is doable in the summer for real, but my experience is that it needs to be highly organized to get people dancing privately. Music is not enough. The social element is strong and in an event of scilent private disco, this still is a very strange element. Yeah it works for a crowd who already knows each other like Ian's yoga glass mates ;) The bubble effect is hard to tackle on its own. Good luck trying though. I have done this in a spinning class but that too is highly pre-organized.

40 USD per headphone, that's not that much if you start looking around on the internet for a pair of headphones. There won't be many options in that price range, especially also have them be wireless. 800 USD is a big investment, sure. But the price per headphone is honestly not at all bad.

@luismasi 3 жыл бұрын

My point is that if you add all the costs for doing a gig like this, ur looking at a 1000 dollar plus investment AT LEAST. PLUS controller, laptop, etc. Not “affordable” for the median DJ today. All that said, I fully support the idea and its great to get rolling again after COVID. Just not affordable at all, and given that he’s actually selling them, a call out on this is warranted.
