A suggestion. Running super short (1.5 ft) cables from the controller/mixer to the speakers will save you a ton of weight and headaches inside your top. Run the end of the cable out the bottom of the booth then run a white cable down the truss (blends in better and doesn't show through the scrim). I run two of the Max booths, which are absolutely amazing, but I built one of these first and I'm working on finding a case that I can safely move around, as the weight with the Rane One was a bit too heavy to safely carry. The Max booths come in hard plastic cases with wheels, which honestly might be the best possible solution. I might do that. Right now this console is the one I use at home for practice. Nice work. Those poles work much better on the sides. Also, the laptop stand is a metal base, so if you want it lighter just take some plywood and cut a copycat out that you mount the bottom bracket onto. Super cheap and easy and will save you lbs.

That’s the nice thing about this booth - you can keep customizing and adding things to make it your way!

@lasrocasent Жыл бұрын

Thank you. I wanted to show that it wasn't hard to do. When I first saw Peck's video I was like this is kinda difficult then I saw yours and was like ok maybe it is possible lol so I was like what the heck I'll do it. It's a fun project to the best part is you can keep customizing it. I gotta find a different stand because as you see on the video the booth is a little taller than what I would like since I am short lol. But for now it works or maybe I just gotta get use to it!. I am hopping for more ppl to start making their own booth.

@MrMaui38 Жыл бұрын

@@lasrocasent dude it is definitely pretty easy!! I’m glad my video could help. The hardest part is making that cut for the top board but i paid a carpenter to do it for me. Bro I was nervous watching while you were holding the board with your hands while your friend was cutting!!! Lmao 😰😰 You can definitely make it shorter if you find a shorter totem or odyssey stand to put it onto! I’ve been using a height adjustable table for now but the totem look is definitely cleaner and nicer. But it’s all customizable which is great. Also love how you did the extensions for the mics.

Also I am still looking for totems bout 3ft high hopefully I find one that is not too pricey. The extender antennas came in clutch only thing is that it comes in one length so i had to push my receiver back a little bit. Not a big deal.

Can I ask how tall is the booth from floor to where the controller is? I love this idea. Seems easy enough to build and super stylish just want to make sure I'm comfortable at the height DJing.

@lasrocasent 9 ай бұрын

Hey Justin thanks for watching! To answer your question, the height depends on what you are going to be using as legs. If you are 5' 7" and taller than the collapsible totem will be the best option for you since the totem can be adjusted. I am 5' 6" and with using the totem the controller ends up just a bit higher at its lowest setting. In my case: The totem is 39" (Lowest setting) + 5" of the table = 44" in total which is a little less than 4ft. Hope this helps!

What’s keeping this from falling off the totem? I watched the whole video and didn’t hear you mention that part.

@lasrocasent 2 ай бұрын

Hey bro thanks you for watching the video appreciate it! Now to answer your question: at first, I used heave duty Velcro on the bottom of the table and the top of the totem. However, the totem is a bit too high for me which makes the top a bit higher and uncomfortable for me. So, I had to look for an alternative and found the Rockville speaker stands for booth monitors. I tested that but it was a bit too rocky for me, so I changed it and now i use an X stand as my based. The beauty of making it yourself is that you can adjust and change things to best fit your needs. Hope this helps and/or answered your question.

Angle grinder with a basic cutting disc is fine. It's not going to hurt anything. If you don't know how to handle a router you're better off using the angle grinder, as you can do cleaner lines. I used a RotoZip because it was already out and I was too lazy to pull out my jig. In hindsight...the glued particle board was a LOT harder to cut, even with a proper bit. Lines weren't perfect, but that's what tape is for. ;-)
