Hello DJ friends,
I use two Behringer Eurolive B115 D Active 2-way 15" speaker system connected to a MOTU Microbook II sound driver, connected to an HP Laptop using Ableton Live.
I have done at least 40 gigs with no problem with a very reliable setup.
Yet in two weeks Quinceanera (Sweet Sixteen) party, I start getting like what I thought it was one speaker failing. It was distorting a frequency in the songs and sounded like it was chocking. It might have been static or something was making terrible noise. I was sweating profusely and it was the first time in my 4 years DJing (this is like my midlife crisis dream)... and did NOT ENJOYED DJing as I was having technical issues.
I was ready to go and buy some EV speakers.. but then went to my garage and tried to recreate the issue. I don't think it is the speakers. There are some songs that are having the issue, and it is mostly the ones in lower RPM's. I am wondering if my MOTU card is failing .. because I realized it is BOTH speakers... so it should not be a cable... I am inclining for the sound card, but then ALL songs should be failing and not only some of them.
HELP!!!
