      Thanks for the video, this was extremely helpful. I've started doing some mobile dj gigs and been using an xdj rx , but it's too big, too heavy and a bit overkill for events with 150 people or less . (Plus it sucks that it doesn't have any aux input for requests)
      So I've been looking to alternatives and I think I'm going for a ddj sb3 + xenyx q802usb. One question tho , it says the xenyx has unbalanced outputs, doesn't that defeat the purpose of getting the mixer ? Some comments on Amazon say that this will be good only for podcast situations and others that they have played multiple gigs. Can you clarify this please ? Thanks

    • @priyonjoni
      @priyonjoni  4 года назад +1

      Trapnest this is why I recommended the 802 and not the smaller ones. The smaller ones do not have balanced outputs. But if you check the manual of the 802, it will say both the main and control room outputs of the 802 are “balanced” and require a TRS quarter inch plug. Key word is “TRS”. If you use a standard TS quarter inch plug, it will default to unbalanced.

      So I have a question:
      I have a ddj400 and I want to live stream with it and have an additional microphone that I want some eqs for to make it sound a little better.
      I was thinking about getting a mixler like the yamaha m10xu so I could plug the controller and mic in and get them out via usb - HOWEVER I would like to have ONLY my music on my monitor speakers and not hear my own voice! But I can't mute my mic on the booth output of the mixer. The ddj 400 has no possibility to have two different outputs.
      Can someone help me? Maybe the Idea is just bad and I need 2 mixers ? Any help would be super cool!!!

    I like how you help so many Djs. You do know so much about Controlers , I know you. Know alot. When are you going to talk about the way we did it in the beginning of DJ ing . One time you said a real DJ could dj with just about any cheap or expensive equipment witch it's true .Trust me am 60 years old back then most turntables had no speed control. You had to have and know the selection of records you was going to play ,or look at the groves for your cues. Mixers where ok if you was lucky I had a uncle in Germany and came with 2 Mixers Like Bozak or Uri , and macintosh amps had tubes, Then he had those Thorens turntables like they had in all the Major clubs how I wanted those .Then he purchased some Phillips Turntables for me I sold them and purchase Technics 1800 I thought I had the best no belt moter, it's what I wanted I held on till the 1200 mk2 came around bought a display and a new one still have them got rid of the 1800, CDJS started coming out it took me years but I gave in and bought a pair of Cdjs 1000 I used Cds for years Then I seen some guy selling the silver Cdjs 1000 I gave him $350 for the pair and he took it so now I have 4 pioneers CDJS players bought me the Denon Serato pro with the interface 2 disc ,2 records all the wires I need so I use a old Bozak Mixer it don't have a USB port that's why I purchased the Serato pro only 2 channels so I still have 2 more channels for the other cdj players. Any way thanks for your info .Your the best ,you must be a hell of a perfectionist till you next post love them

    When I got back into the hobby in 2013, I used a Mixtrack Pro Mk1 and later a DDJ SB2. Both great little devices, versatile and extremely portable. But, they still only got RCA outs. I knew that the signal was unbalanced and I would have troubles pairing them with active PA speakers, but I didn't want to spend several hundred dollars just for a mixer with balanced XLRs. That's when I found out about this crazy little invention called the DI box. The Behringer DI20 was only 25€ on Amazon, so it was a no-brainer. Now, I was finally able to plug my entry-level gear into pro speakers without looking (and sounding!) like a total noob. To this day, I'm using the Behringer DI20 to amp up the sound coming out of my backup controller, the Pioneer DDJ-REV1. For beginner DJs wanting to play their first big gigs, this thing is a 100% MUST-HAVE!! 👏

    Thanks for the video, super helpful!
    So I have two 15in powered PA speakers that take in XLR only. I also have an 18in powered sub that takes a left and a right XLR input. I use a DDJ400.
    In the past, I would connect everything as follows:
    DDJ ---RCA to XLR ---> Left Speaker
    Left speaker -XLR to XLR ---> Right speaker
    Right speaker -XLR to XLR ---> subwoofer.
    There were multiple issues with this. First off, I know I’m not getting anywhere near the max volume out of my system because of all the signal loss. But more specifically, by only having a single input to the sub, it looses a lot of its oomph. Based on what you were saying in the video, it seems like I need either a dual direct box or a mixer. I think the dual direct box is going to be enough for me, however I wanted to check with you and see if you think that’s the best solution?
    I was thinking I would go ddj -> direct box -> l and r speakers (respectively) -> sub.
    Will this help? I was hoping to buy the cheaper behringer dual box but I’m worried it won’t be able to handle all of this gear.
    Thanks again!!

    I had a Behringer XENYX 302USB exactly for that to hook up my DDJ-400. But cheap certain comes at a price: noise on the line. Returned it and spend more money to pick up an Allen & Heath ZEDi-8 instead. Very happy with the clean signal (also looks better than Behringer's). Also has a 2-channel USB interface which is great for diving into how to use DAW's.
    Watched this video after the purchases. But still great to know my decision was in line with recommended solutions.

    As for those who make these systems, as ever the instructions show that they haven't got any idea whatsoever what the fuck they're doing.
    I've blown people away with my music for 29 years. I still don't understand why the easy thing has been made ridiculously complicated. And this is the simplest presentation of it I've ever found.
    My bet, sound technicians would be out of a job if musicians could just plug themselves in. So long as plugging in means you have to ballance a signal with a PQRST before DIing it to a boost interface with an HIV adaptor (so long as the signal doesn't have interference from the BBQ) and then switching the channel in the BJ to the quasimodular triceratops while adjusting the donkey flange so it realeases the right frequency of gecko farts.... then some nerds who can't make music will still get paid for sorting out all that crap 😂

    Why would you need the USB version of the mixer with an entry level controller? To record to another computer - Assuming you go for a digital mixer (ie one with an audio interface built in, that has a USB socket on the back to plug into a computer as well as analogue outputs), you can plug directly into a computer that isn’t your DJ computer to record or to livestream. No need to own a separate audio interface - just get a live mixer with one built in

    hy there Pri yon Joni! I'v been looking for your videos sibce the begginning of my Dj mini carierr. Very usefull infos clear and easy to undestand videos! I like what you do. About this video i need your advice as an pro tech ! I have the follouing setup that i use: Hercules inpulse 500 controller (unbalanced output 6.3 jack) a mixer ( for now the Alto Zmx 862 main mix balanced or unbalanced 6.3 jack output) and from there active woofers (only balanced in/out) and active speakers that can handle balanced/unbalanced signal. I undestud that adding an active DI BOX after the controller the signal goes ballanced into the entire system, but it will that help increasing the overall strenght of the sound? (in the same gieven conditions, same settings) Does it makes a difference in sound Quality? I undestud that if a active speaker is built to work with balanced signal is better to use balanced signal for best performance, regardless of it's capacity to also handle unbalanced. Hope my english is good enough for you to undestand what i mean. Thanks alot! Respect

    You could also just use an audio interface, that way you're not running any RCA... should have an input for a mic if you need it too

    Questions.
    Does a PA mixer boost the signal strength of a DDJ400 more or better than plugging into the channel of another DJs mixer? Will a PA mixer improve the volume capabilities of my monitors at home? I have the big KRK G4 and I find it easy to redline my controller, especially with my bassier music. I have RCA out to XLR into my monitors and the cords are about 6 feet long. Great videos👍

    Thanks for the video. I got a venue coming up at an older club. I go to check out the equipment and the host there hands me an rca wire with an 8mm jack and tells me this is what will connect to my controller. I have a rev7, how will I go about connecting an 8mm jack to my rev7?

    I am currently using the DDJ SB3, which only has RCA output. However I have some good solid Behringer active speakers, which ONLY has an 1/4 Jack and XLR input. I am thinking of buying the Yamaha MG06 mixer, over the Behringer small mixers, due to the fact of the XLR output they have on the Yamaha Mixer. My set will go like this :
    DDJ SB3 (RCA to 1/4 JACK) ---> Yamaha MG06 (XLR to XLR) ---> Behringer B115D
    I will I have extra channels for an AUX to 1/4 Jack if needs be, but also an input for my Wired Mic or even my Wireless Mic.
    Is everything ok? Whats your opinion? I really love my SB3 and I do not feel the need to upgrade, as at the moment I am trying to improve my mobile DJ set up.
    Thanks for the great video man !

      DJ Myron a balanced quarter inch output can be converted to XLR by simply having a wire that is TRS quarter inch to male XLR. Neither one is better or worse than the other. XLR and TRS quarter inch all have 3 wires inside, 2 of which are signal carriers.

    Great video, I have a ddj400 which when plugged into my pair of jbl partybox speakers is no where near as loud as if I plug my DJM750 mixer into speakers.
    If I used a small 802 pa mixer with my ddj400, how would be best to connect pa mixer to the party boxes ? The partybox’s have 1/8 inch aux input, red/white rca inputs, and also a 1/4 inch mic input and a 1/4 inch guitar input , the mic and guitar inputs have their own gain knobs.

    I’ve just bought a DDJ FLX4 just so I can Dj in my man cave here and there with my friends. I want to buy speakers that I can use on my tv and also when playing the decks. I don’t know if this will be possible but that’s what I’d prefer. Can you advise on the best options for this?

      That's a great suggestion! However, as an official demonstrator for Pioneer DJ, it would appear bias to compare our gear with other gear. Fortunately, there are a ton of videos on RUclips where folks do that. Check out Cleveland Terry, Mojaxx from DJ City, Phil Harris, and Digital DJ Tips!

    Greetings friend. First of all thank you for a really good video that cleared a lot of questions out (at least for me). I'll explain what I use, and then you can answer what your opinion on the matter is.
    I use Traktor S2 MK3, pretty good controller but has a really quiet master output and only RCA (unb) outs. I would like to keep my unbalanced connection short and boost my signal output a bit more (I think it's weaker than on the SB3 out of the box), so what would you recommend using between Active Dual Direct Box (the Art one you linked) or that Small Behringer Xenyx Q802USB Mixer? Keep in mind that I should be able to boost the signal a little bit more than someone on the SB3.
    Thanks in advance, keep up the great work and amazing videos!

    Appreciate this knowledge!! I have a 15in powered spkr with a passive. Bought an addtl passive thinking to run the controller thru an amp w/2 passive. The active one gets too hot and they clip. Now with the mixer can run the controller, mic and addt'l thru that without the need for an amp. Is that correct?

    I have a question about my own setup.
    My current DJ setup is DDJ PRO 200 -> RCA output to RCA input on my amplifier with 6 m RCA cable. The amplifier are connected to the boxes. The Quality of the sound isnt that great. I want to buy a active direct box, so i can hook up a short RCA Cable and from there connect it to the emplifier. My question is: does this work to if there is a emplifier in between and what kind of cable should i use. I dont have a XLR input in my amplifier. I hope to get a responds soon, bc i have a big party this saturday ;) thankyou
