My face when the experienced DJ's levels are in the RED

OP here, kinda forgot about this.

FYI: The master was clipping, just about everything that could clip was in fact clipping.

And there was a single dude in the sound engineer booth, but he looked 17 so I'm not sure if he did anything at all.

I've just seen a picture uploaded on Facebook by one of the biggest clubs around here of a DJ running a DJM 900 in the reds. The excuse was "it's ok because the club can handle it"...

Same here.

Played at a traditional club here and played with two DJ's. The most famous one plays for 20 years and is the resident of the club. The other one plays for 18 years. Awesome song selection.

Both stopped playing, approached my S4 and saw the 800 with the Master blasting reds.

I'm in blue, all serious.

It's strange that after 2 decades of experience they don't know why the flashy green/red thingymajig is there.
Sad to see that .WAV goodness do to waste.

DB4 goes to 11, but only on the headphones. Master only goes to 10.

Reloop.


The booth was held up by oil barrels, the venue isn't exactly rich.

Got a Reloop RMX-30 Blackfire edition at home, I can only agree with Jester.NZ here.
(Same goes for EQs beyond 12 o'clock. )

long as the master aint clipping, all good

Gotta watch that movie again real soon. I can listen to "Lick my lovepump" over and over.

It's simple gain staging, and some people don't understand it. I don't know how many DJs I've seen with their levels all in the red who have been doing this for 10 plus years. If it's supposed to be louder, then the engineer will turn it up FFS!
