Louis Chancellor's Setup

**jayo** · 07-17-2012, 12:41 AM

Hey guys and girls, I've been on the site for a few years now, but never showed any of the gear I play with. So I thought it was enough of that, so here is a few pics of the progression of my setup. Its nothing really special, and certainly nothing that most of you haven't seen before, but its about time I show off some of my gear.

Firstly, I started off with a Numark Total Control and Cue (VDJ). It was a good start for the first year or so.

From there I made the move to Traktor and bought myself a set of Stanton T 80 tables, a Pioneer DJM 600, and an NI X1. I did like this setup, but money issues came up and I sold everything except the X1 to cover some bills.

When I had a little cash back in my pocket, the S2 went on sale which was great. So my setup grew to the S2 along side my X1 which was great to get back to spinning on after a little while off.

And last week I traded a guy a Scotty Cameron Putter which I bought for $60 two days prior for another set of Stanton T-80's, 4 Traktor control vinyls, needles and carts', rca's and original dust covers and boxes. Im not a Stanton TT fan boy or anything, but both times I picked up these model decks they have been great deals. The new set is much better then the first, as the BPM will only flutter a max of 0.03 BPM up or down. throughout a whole track. So far I'm really happy with these guys and can't wait to get some more time on them
So the latest setup consists of a set of Stanton T-80's, S2, X1, A6, and Sony MDR V-700's

I hear Stanton TT's are great for the price; good to see there is a decent alternative to Technics still kicking around. Nice setup; the desk is quite sleek. What are you using for the monitor stands?

Thanks for the kind words on my modest little setup. The desk is a regular Ikea glass table/desk which I bought to use for school but as you can see no books will fit on the table anymore. I can't study at home with all the distractions so I go to the library now a days anyhow. The stands are QuikLok, I purchased them from Moog Audio here in Toronto on Queen street. Their site is moogaudio.com. It would be nice if they came up a bit higher, but they do swivel, seem sturdy enough, and for $50 for the pair they were a great grab.

Update time......

With the turntables I felt i wasn't really utilizing much of what the S2 had to offer, and wanted to go to something a little more traditional. I found a smoking deal for a Xone 32 in great condition, so I sold my S2, bought the Xone 32 and pocketed the extra $50. I got it all hooked up and running this afternoon and I must say I am happy with my purchase thus far. I never had my hands on a Xone before this, but it seems many people hold these mixers in high regard so I figured I would give it a shot.
