Suggestion for DJTT videos: “Pro DJ, Cheap Gear” challenge?

Hey there :slight_smile:

As a hobbyist photographer i love watching videos from the guys over at DigitalRev (they make funny instructional videos on photography), and the other day i was re-watching all of their “Pro Photographer, Cheap Camera” series, where they give crappy old plasticky cameras to world-renowned photographers, and let them squeeze all the juice out of the gear that is available.
Just as an example they gave Chase Jarvis a camera made out of legos.

So let’s get to the point
What if Ean himself invited some pro DJs to DJTT HQ and gave them, for example, a pair of cdj100s, or two utterly destroyed turntables with some worn down vinyl or whatever else comes to mind, some first-gen USB controllers maybe?

What do you guys think about this? I believe it would enlarge the DJTT community a lot, especially if they did it in a funny/sarcastic way as the DigitalRev guys do :smiley:

i think its a great idea as it would show the beginners what is possible with practise and not upgrading gear

I love this idea and I’m sure it would be really cool! The only problem I see is that most DJ’s seem to already be in a tight schedule as it is even for a short interview. Making them spin something on whatever is that they could find would probably require making a routine which is more time that has to be devoted. Granted, some could probably do it… but these videos would be too scarce sadly.

Isn’t this just every single NI video ever though?

Good idea though

Yeah that would be the point, to attract more people :slight_smile:
Also, to add some fun to the community :smiley:
