Guiltysounds DJ set up. I’m gonna need more space soon…
So far I have:
Pair of CDJ 2000s
DJM 700
Traktor S2 (DJTT mapping)
X1 with painted face plate. (D3 X1 mapping)
17" Macbook pro
HDJ-2000
Rokit 8s
Some computer speakers with a sub to monitor
Uber stand
Some cheap odyssey stand
Ikea Make up table with all the plus tucked in the drawer
Some coffin cases hidden under the table.
Eventually once I move to SF I’d like to make a new table, probably a xonetacular style table. I need more space for my gear clearly. I don’t normally have my S2 out it sits in its DJTT monobag normally. I only mix on my computer when I have my S2 and X1, otherwise its usually straight CDJs.
Well I moved to SF and I have a great view. So I decided to take advantage of it and start building a Xonetacular desk and a production desk next to it. More updates to come once complete. Here is a tease
I tried to build a similar desk to Xone but realized a few things. THe material for the expedit bookcases do not really like to be drilled in. So putting anything of legit weight on like shelf was sketchy at best. I had the lack shelfs installed for speakers and there was no way it was going to hold, espescially after screwing it in and seeing how thin the bookcases are, since they are hollow. The long lack shelf for the computer was fine and controllers was fine, but my krks are way to heavy for the smaller shelfs, just wasn’t safe.
Anyways here are some pics from my new place in SF. I’m going to install some lazers and lights at some point soon.
I upgraded to a DJM 900 with my cdj 2000s. I think im ditching my HDJ-2000s for some senheisser amperiors.
thanks, when I went to ikea I saw the red and knew I had to get it! I was gonna go white, but red was too interesting not to. Plus I have a red door so it tied in with my whole place. I’ll get some improved pictures soon, and maybe some evening pictures as well. I’ll grab an over all pic of the place too.
The one set of krks is for djing and the other is for referencing on my mini studio, eventually I may upgrade the 5s, but right now with my limited production knowledge i will take my time to invest. Next thing I need for my studio desk is a soundcard to tie it all in.
Next update. Found a pair of MK2 techs. I’m gonna revive them by redoing the tops, and painting them white, doing an LED mod on each light, cleaning up the pitches, etc.
So since I got the techs. I wanted to move the cdjs up to some stands. I looked online and saw that the prices for stands was absolutely bananas. So I said f-it and went to the hardware store, bought some pipe fittings, a 8 inch pipe piece, a 45 degree angled piece and went to work. I had an old shelf from Ikea that I cut in half and mounted the pieces to. Then I installed them to the table. Finally using the old hardware from the expedit bookcase, the L brackets to brace to a wall and the plastic covers, I used that to hold up the cdjs. Overall I’m really pleased with the way it turned out. The cdj stands cost me like 50 bucks in total since I had the wood sitting around. Def an improvement. Hopefully I can do some work on these techs soon. Little afraid to do it cause I haven’t done anything like it before but we will see. At the very least I can re-paint the tops, and clean the gunk out of everything. As far as soldering stuff thats a whole other story.
