coming from a guy who use to run with uncle jams army back in the day i must say that is one bad ass set up.i was just wondering do you dj for a living or just for a hobby...i do catering and my clients sometimes ask me for reference to a dj.it would be great to recommend a fellow boater

Funny you should just be finishing yours... I just had a coffin custom built to hold the CDJ's, Final Scratch and all the other gear. I sent them the wood (red birch) to use for it and built this new table for my stuff.
You need to swing by now bro... we have more lights, another laser and this new booth with new Beringer monitors. Bad Ass!!!!

Booth is obviously not done yet, but it will be at the house today. The coffin isn't done yet, but it is a full ATA road case so I can go play out with it now. My amp, CD shuttle and rack mount PC for FS is all in another 12 space rolling rack.
Nice job on the coffin bro. It looks totally trick. I love the wood color. You should be really proud of yourself. This was my first foray into finished woodwork. I did a purple base stain with a dark red mahogany top and automotive clearcoat.

Hey Wes, not to nitpick here, but aren't you supposed to be building boats, not DJ coffins??? :D :D :D
Both of those look pretty sweet though. ;)

Why are you set up battle style if you spin progressive???

I set up battle style too. We both scratch a little (Fenix a lot more than me) and I like cutting as well. Plus, it takes up less room left to right and with three turntables it makes a difference.

I may be seein' things ....but is that a Condom Dispenser against the wall :jawdrop:

maybe not :D

[ROZ]

That's no coffin... It needs 3 handles on each side for that... :D

[Dr. Eagle]

Dude...
That's sick! :D

[Phat Matt]

He started off as a hip hop dj. At his current place he's limitted on space so he has them set up like that. He's use to it. I'm not though. I like them turned the right way, the house way. :)
I would like to see him scratch with that rotarty mixer though. ;) It's kida hard without faders. :D

[Doctor Feniks]

yeah...no scratching on this setup. this is was simply built to be a mixer's dream. 3 turntables going at once is not as easy as it sounds....kinda adds a whole new dimension to the mixing. as far as why i set it up battle style.....well....like PM said...i used to spin alot of hip hop and simply got used to it this way. plus the needle actually holds the groove better this way as it is farther from your hand (which is a source of vibration). also, as was mentioned earlier, in order to fit 3 turntables into this coffin and not have the damn thing bend in the middle i had to put them this way. if they were setup the normal way the coffin would have had to be another 12 inches longer. as it is, it is already 6 feet long. any longer and it would surely bend in the middle from the weight. with all the equipment in it, this thing weighs about 250 lbs. it's a heavy mofo... i can always hook up my other mixers (i have 2 others) if i feel the need to scratch (my balls).

[Doctor Feniks]

oh yeah...it's not a condom dispenser....it's a candy dispenser. my parents put that there for my daughter so she could get candy when she's at grandma and grandpa's house.

That sucks your parents are trying to make money off your daughters candy habit... ;)

Did Sasha and Digweed really play off that thing???

They used the rotary mixer for one event.

[Froggystyle]

What kind of mixer is it? It looks a lot like the one that Tiesto uses in a couple DVD's. Which would make it a Stanton I guess????
Bitchin setup in any case...

Ahhhh the smell of in vinyl in the morning. I have an entire storage unit full of it...wicky wicky. :angry2:

Wow. I know they make bitchin shit, but that seems pretty straightforward. You guys do so much work with the eq's and stuff... how do you do that with this mixer?
This is the one he was telling me about when you were down, right? One of the first in California or something?

This one is a lot different to mix on. You still can out out sound frequencies with the knobs though. The mixer he was talking about before was the Xone 92. It's a pretty sweet mixer!

I should've gotten that instead of the X9. I like my mixer and all, but this one is the heat...
