Hey guys,
I just landed my first gig at the biggest dance club in my area, it's also the same club I have been going to for years to see my favorite big name DJs play at. The show is next week, I know my way around my decks at home and I've been djing in the bedroom and various smaller bars in the area for quite a few years now, but I really want to know some similarities and differences of the gear I have versus the more upscale club standards. I have CDJ 850s and a Xone 42, the club has 2000s and a DJM 900 (not nexxus, I don't think).
There's obviously a lot more functionality on the 2000s than the 850s, but what are your most commonly used features on the 2000s? (I plan on using flash drives, not cd's although I may take my cd case for backup just in case)
How do you take advantage of Rekordbox with the 2000s vs the 850s?
What's some main differences I should be aware of between the Allen & Heather and Pioneer mixer interfaces? I haven't used a Pioneer mixer in years. What functions on the DJM-9000 do you find yourself using the most? I like to use the filters on the Xone to mix out of sometimes, how do the filters compare on the DJM? Also, do you use the "color" effects a lot? They seem really helpful.
Thanks, I'm definitely nervous but even more excited so, any pointers would be highly appreciated!
