Custom Home/Studio DJ Console
Sweet mother of god… 
Gorgeous 
So gorgeous.
Cleaner then the board of health.
nicely done, Sir.
I love the setup so much but what is it with the headphone stick lol 
Hello - Some DJs refer to it is a “lollipop”, “monophone”, or just a “stick”, but I usually call it a “cue stick” because that’s essentially what it’s specifically used for, cueing. I’ve always preferred to use this type of device while DJing rather than traditional headphones for a number of different reasons/benefits. They are fairly common amongst some older house and disco DJs such as myself. I handcraft all my own cue sticks for personal use.

Yeah I’m familiar with them I just personally don’t like them lol. Pretty legit that you make them yourself though.
Understandable. They’re pretty rare out in the wild. I find most DJs don’t really like (or understand) them either. Just a personal preference is all. Different strokes, different folks. Like a lot of other cue stick users, I prefer to do all my mixing by using a set of proper monitors, not in headphones, so for me a cue stick is ideal and have been using them for decades. Use it to simply cue up the track (knowing your tracks is inside and out is vital), set it down, and then do all the blending by ear via monitors without being tethered. IMO this technique provides a truer representation of what’s really going on with the audio out on the main soundsystem/dancefloor/crowd. Having a proper set of monitors is critical though, so I do keep a traditional pair of headphones with me at all times as back up in my gear bag for gig situations where proper monitors are not available (it happens sometimes).
I’ve never used a lolipop, but I kind of want to. I just haven’t felt the inclination to buy a set of headphones just to make one (or i guess 2), since I’m not about to tear apart the headphones I have for it.
I always kinda figured a lolipop, earplugs, and a set of nice IEMs would have all bases covered…and just pick based on how good the monitors are.
Just buy of an ebay a broken pair of headphones, there’s always a shitload of them with one side “dead” 
Mother of god!
i had to repost this. hahaha. i am in complete “aw” from the rane rotary faders to the curved edges of table. the steigman art piece is the perfect addition to this sweet a$$ of a setup.
I just love it. Simple. Sexy. Functional. I love the fact that you re-routed the headphone out to the top.
Nice setup. Whats the info on the desk? Did you make it yourself or have someone do it for you?
Goodness gracious!
She’s a beaut! 
What are the “weights” on the turntable spindles?
Hi - Thanks. Yep, designed by self and professionally constructed along with help of another.
Hi - Thanks. They are just that, weights (sometimes referred to as clamps). If you’re not familiar, turntable weights lower resonance and provide a number of benefits including improved coupling and center dampening which translates to better overall audio performance at the stylus in the way of tightened low frequency response with more pronounced midrange and high frequencies. Additionally, turntable weights can also allow cupped/warped records to grip the platter mat that otherwise would’ve slipped during cue release.
BTW for anyone interested, this unit has recently been put up for sale (link below). Currently working on a different design, but before it can be executed, this one needs to go in order to make room for new one.
