Hey guys,
Just came from of shop where they had some boy from Apple demoing the Airport Express. He was showing me how you can wirelessly transmit audio from your laptop to the airport express which you can then plug into any speaker/stereo/mixer etc via RCA.
He says it doesnt just work with mac, will work with any laptop and with a program called Airfoil, it will work with any audio, not just itunes.
Normally when I DJ, they'll have decks setup or CDJ's and I kinda feel like I'm getting in the way turning up with my laptop and VCI-100 and try to find a space in the end of a booth where I can setup and connect up to the mixer in between sets. I'm seeing the benefits of being able to use the Airport so I dont essentially have to setup within a couple of feet of the mixer.
Also, I suffer from the typical problem of getting buzzing, *white noise* when using my laptop with the power plugged in and have just been running of the battery which always makes me nervous. I read a 'Ground Loop Isolator' can sometimes fix the problem and they're really cheap so was going to pick them up but was wondering again, if using the Airport Express would clean up the problem.
So I guess after all that, before I go and buy one has anyone any experience using one? or any advice they can give?
Once again, thanks in advance for any input.
