I’m looking for a simple, not too big, good looking dj backpack to hold my 15" macbook (with an extra protection of course), traktor soundcard, timecode vinyls, novation dicers and of course some cables. Can you recommend me something? I’m having a headache looking for something like this, all seem way too big for me, i want a simple one, the one i can carry everyday and not look like i got the whole tractor engine inside of it instead of just laptop and a few smaller things inside…
mono bags are great! i got a free one here with the vci-400 and it’s made very well and looks cool too. mine isn’t a backpack though but the quality must surely transfers to their other bags and backpacks.
IMO Mono bags are expensive. They cost the same or more than flight cases.
To the OP, if you’re looking for an inexpensive alternative, Torq makes a bag for the Xponent that’ll hold a laptop and medium sized controller (like the Kontrol S2) for around $70.
i guess i forgot to factor in the price vs quality since i paid 0 dollars for my mono bag. totally worth it at that price. i haven’t been able to see any other bags/backpacks to judge the quality but as long as it has decent padding and separators on the inside you should be alright. i think the torq is probably too big for the op though.
the mono efx kondensor is the best one i’ve seen so far, but the price is really crazy especially here in europe - around 170 in dollars… anyone knows anymore backpacks similar to the mono one? and i don’t need these messenger type bags, i got one, it fits everything i need but i’m having headache carrying it and that’s why i want to swap it for backpack..
Free is a sweet deal. Even for in or around $100 it looks like a quality bag. But like virmantas says it seems expensive in Canada as well. It’s almost $200 here and more than that if you add the tax.
check out www.ogio.com i have one of theirs, it’s southern comfort branded so i got it free, but the amount i can fit inside is unreal, well padded and plenty of pockets, looking at their site too, theyre fairly cheap.
