What do you take to a club, and what does your regular club offer for you to use?
Heres what i take:
in a mono efx condensor bag,
3x traktor kontrol vinyl
3x traktor control cd
2x serato scratch control cd
audio 4 dj
kontrol x1
midi fighter
sample cd’s and a backup (changeover mix, good to put on as your setting up your stuff)
and when i had it, my s4 (or other midi controller)
my local club has 2 technics 1200’s 4 cdj 1000’s and one runs a inhouse audio 8 (traktor) and the other serato live 4 soundcard
serato is free so alot of djs download it set up there tracks incase the club has an ssl set up.saves setting up another soundcard if they are using traktor
Yep, exactly as tommy said, sometimes if the club is running serato and you are not the first dj to gig that night, it saves switching over soundcards!
Also, no I don’t carry backup vinyl however I do have a few backup cd’s which I forgot to mention, I also have a 15 minute pre recorded mix while I setupy gear, just wack it in a cdj, I also use that if shit hits the fan, while I figure out what’s wrong and what I am going to do.
external hdd
bcd3000
nanopad
skull candy cans, as my hd25’s are broken
audio 2 dj
spare power supply for laptop
4 spare usb cables (just in case)
ipod shuffle and a few cds incase it all goes pete tong
used to take laptop, omnicontrol, hercules mp3 e2, nano pad, ipad, ipod, cd wallet, leads, cables, mic, sd card, usb drive, hard drives, stand…
but these days its just: lappytop, omnicontrol, headphones, a few leads and cd’s as i usually have my phone with a recorded mix on it just in case shit hits the fan, felt like i wasnt using the ipad, nanopad and e2 as much since i wasnt improvising in my own room.
