My home rig :)
My home rig :) Posted on: 28.07.2012 by Sidney Hoener Hi y'all!I'm new around here and I thought I'd share my setup. I'm a little old school about controllers, so this is as digital as I can get so far. Maybe in the future I'll get more comfy with Midi, but I know run my tracks off Rekordbox (or some "traditional" vinyl thrown in). I spin jacking house, tech house and I like the darker stuff. I'm not happy that its facing a wall and its asymmetrical look with one of the CDJ's flying, so I'm believeing of building a custom table with the three CDJ's "flying" and just the decks on the ground, and then the laptop to the side somewhere. I also want to build a hidden cable channel or something so I can make the table face the room. Any ideas? Any other Alberta based DJ's around here? | |

P1020228.jpg All cut up and ready for assembly P1020229.jpg Start of assembly P1020242.jpg Assembly almost complete P1020245.jpg P1020246.jpg P1020247.jpg The finished product! P1020274.jpg I designed it so all the cabling is hidden in the level below the decks, and when it eventually faces a room rather than the wall, you see absolutely no cabling. I also then painted it a flat matt black. We've moved into a new house so unfortunately I don't have the wall sound treatment up, and as you can see the decks are missing their needles (still in a box somewhere). My awesome better half couldn't have been even better, she told my parents to get me an HDJ-2000K for my birthday so I should have the setup complete soon and in all-black! Am I lucky or what? Let me know what you guys believe. This was only my second ever woodworking project so I'm glad it turned out decent. |

So what kinda music are you into? |
Johnna Callery 26.08.2012 | very nicely done! |
Rochel Gleese 25.08.2012 | Great setup pretty much a ultimate setup! |

Marlen Deneweth 18.08.2012 | Sweet setup |

Does anyone have any ideas or examples of how this would look in an attractive manner if possible? All the professional DJ booths I've seen have 2 CDJ decks and the laptop in between, but having the 3rd deck throws off things a little! |
Terra Merigold 31.07.2012 | Sweet setup |
Marcelene Bielenda 29.07.2012 | Mostly EDM, was really into electro/progressive/trance when i started out, as i was a regular at the Warehouse if you know what im talking about lol. Now im getting into more funky/minimal/house, still love the dirty hard stuff though! |

Sidney Hoener 28.07.2012 | Thanks guys! I'm quite proud of this one, although it has none of the fancy controllers many of you guys have. Everyone here seems to have a Midi Fighter . Cyberphox sorry about the picture looking dark I just thought it would make it look cool. The gear list is: 1 Pioneer DJM-2000 3 Pioneer CDJ-2000 2 Technics SL-1210 Sony MDR-V700 (hopefully soon to be replaced by the HDJ-2000K once I can get my hands on one) Macbook Monitors are on floor stands so you can't really see them in the pic. They're Behringer 2030A that's I've had for almost 10 years, and they're still kicking. At the moment though I'm believeing of selling them and getting the KRK Rokit 8 plus the 10s sub. |
Nereida Jasnoch 28.07.2012 | it's setups like this one |
Johnna Callery 28.07.2012 | nice setup but can't tell what exactly what most gear is in the dark |
Latoria Kavulich 28.07.2012 | Very nice setup my friend. welcome to the community |
Nevada Edgette 28.07.2012 | My dream setup!!! It looks great man!!! |
