If it is a mixer make sure you plug into the LINE IN not PHONO IN on the channel with your RCA cable then make sure that channel is set to line (normally a switch at top of channel).

If its dark and hectic pick a cdj and follow the RCA out of the back of the cdj to the mixer and swap it for your RCA, just 100% put it back when you're done

Yea obviously.......but are you going to guarantee the OP that where the club is having him set-up there will be a mixer available for him to plug into? It's like $20-30 in cables depending on length. Better safe then sorry in this situation, and they're cables that the OP will prob need for events in the future

he should ask them first obviously. That's why i used 'AS LONG AS'

I did this tonight. I could tell there was something wrong from the start, but couldn't for the life of me figure out what it was. Kept messing with gains on both mixers, got the levels fine but the bass was distorting like crazy... 5 minutes later I realised what I'd done, flicked the switches and I was good to go.

Ordinarily I wouldn't have made that mistake, but the DJ before me just basically stopped dead before I'd finished doing all my pre-flight checks, so I was panicking and just needed to get something playing asap.

too funny, good times in loft haha, mostly me dancing on stripper poles. but yeah good luck dude, i know a dj who works there often on Thursdays and theres either a djm800 or 900. Just run master out to a channel input and youre ready to go. that simple. ill look into going, this was too crazy

Check it out BEFORE for sure. I only had RCA's with me for a gig with an S4.. turns out the club had direct XLR cables into the sound system. Good thing I SHOWED UP EARLY!!

I personally plan out my first 2-3 mixes then improvise from there. Pre-planning sets defeats the purpose of being a "DJ" imho.
