I learned a valuable lesson when I was on vacation in the Caribbean a couple years ago. I went to a popular club, it was packed, the music was on point, the dance floor was packed. I had to visit the DJ booth, the manager escorted me up....BAM!!! The DJ had a Numark Mixtrack plugged into the house system...I was blown away, then it hi me, people want music, they don't give a F%@K about our equipment...
Im on turntables and want a controller and im a very basic DJ so i asked a friend who has been doing this on a professional level for years about a controller and he told me not to spend too much so i said what about XLR and other things he said go RCA to a separate mixer to everything else and thats when i realized how simplicity is enough as long as the music is there the people will be happy.
I can dig it. I was an early adopter of the Bose column arrays. People are still amazed when they see and hear them so I’m sticking with them. I just finished paying off the QSC KS 118 subs which completes my K series set up. So for now I’m gonna go back to the old ways where we held onto speakers for 10+ years 😂 I seriously don’t wanna spend a gang of money on equipment anymore. It was eating into my profits.
Same here. My first column speakers were Bose and they did a great job for me. If your speakers are working for you and getting you paid, there really is no reason to buy more unless you just really want to.
I agree with you. Keep it simple and stylish
Another great video. I appreciate your honesty. It doesn't pay trying to keep up with everyone. I'm staying within my budget and working with what I have. It's about playing great music and moving the crowd.
Agreed 100%
Welcome back to the light my brother…I love the facades and what it does. With the new 70s…only time will tell based on the need. Clients care more about how we as DJs make their events memorable as they connect with the music. Scratching, cool…but they’re too busy having a good time. Thanks for sharing.
Yep, I totally agree. And I can't believe I love my facade setup as much as I do lol.
Very nice very nice appreciate you, brother. Thank you.
I agree with you 100%!
Man speak facts on top of facts.
Thank you.
Thanks for your honesty. Happy New Year Sir.
You're welcome. I try to stay as honest with myself as I can.
I agree with you on the way DJs feel like you have to have the newest gear but in reality all you need is what works best for YOU. There's too many bandwagon DJs that follow the pack just to say I have what's new. The companies that make the equipment go with the options and ideas of the most popular DJs who only give their opinion on what should be added and what's the best. I took the stance of I get what works for me and what I can afford. Thanks for letting me get that out.
Just heard there's a RANE ONE MK2. YOU JUST SPOKE ABOUT IT.
@ Omg yes I just saw that. Smh... damn it. Lol
Thanks as always for your experienced insights. 🥰
You're welcome.
Awesome video bro, I think the furniture booth makes you feel better. Kind of like, if you dress good you feel good. Lol
I have my all white set up then I have my basic dj booth. I think you can charge more with a furniture booth. But, the music is what counts.
Keep up the great work my friend, you're a real fun guy to watch and you help us djs out a lot.
That's a very good point! I am def NOT saying a furniture booth is not good or acceptable. For many DJs, it's the way to go. Yes, if it makes you feel good, then you're probably gonna do a better job DJing with it. Everyone has to decide what works best for them. DJ furniture is great!
people dont care, absolutely right brother. facade, you can relax behind, drink eat
Man!! Seriously though. During cocktail and dinner time, I have the coolest place to chill while the guests are eating, drinking and socializing. Can't believe I slept on facades as long as I did. They are EXTREMELY practical and useful for a wedding DJ, imo.
Dude this is all 10000% facts!! Could not agree more.
Hahahaha Ikr! Thanks Shay! These thoughts have been on my mind for quite some time. I figured with the release of all this new tempting gear, now would be a good time to get my thoughts on a video.
@ yea man totally agree with this being namm weekend and apparently the year of the column arrays!! I could not agree with you more on the battery powered lighting man, if I buy something that’ll be the only big thing I get!
2Legit always with the real talk!
I try. Thanks.
This is on point. Gratitude!
The white evolve 50 you have are they good? Are they good for 200 or less ppl? Gratitude!
Subscribed! Good video. Looking forward to catching all videos,you post. Good luck to you thjs year brotha.
Thanks so much for subscribing!
Great vid 2Legit, Truth! Especially on the facade vs furniture style. I have way too much going on at my shows, extra mics, paper work, a place to eat and like you said just some personal space. I do over 150 weddings a year staying 2 years booked out and I know what works for me and you're right. I have 4 EV50's and the 44G2's plus so many other great speakers so I'm set. I'm a little tired of DJ Bunn shaming facade to sell his stuff. Keep jamming bro and keep it real.❤
Man!! Seriously though. During cocktail and dinner time, I have the coolest place to chill while the guests are eating, drinking and socializing. Can't believe I slept on facades as long as I did. They are EXTREMELY practical and useful for a wedding DJ, imo.
@@DJ2Legit007 Totally agree brother. Plus no matter how high end our weddings we do are there's always those people who just want to run up on you. I couldn't even imagine not having my space. Much love bro
Great video as always.
Thanks!!
Ty😂!!❤
Bro spot on i am on the same boat!
I see a lot of others Dj company bashing others because they don’t have the pro x tower smh I’m glad I didn’t purchase one because my main focus is having my clients have the best time of their lives at their weddings or whatever event I dj at. And yes I purchase the LD maui 44g2 and I love them (weddings only tho) I just purchased the RCF 932-a speakers for proms. This a good vlog man! Keep it up.
Thanks!! Yes the ProX Control is cool. It's looks great. I'm glad I own one and I may still use it from time to time, but it's definitely not my "go to" setup.
Bro another banger and hope you've been well! Man I can't agree more about the speakers, and in general DJs just wasting money on things they don't need. I've been a facade guy for years, and always will be one. It's like you have your own little private room away from everyone else in the venue room lol 😂.
Btw I'm sorry to do this to you, but a Rane one 2 is on the way, Cleveland Terry has a video showing a quick look from NAMM
@@kevinsounds You're late. Sooooo many people have already commented that on this video lol.
Late but better than never lol.@@DJ2Legit007
Yeah people will notice the light show more than a new upgrade in speakers. Keep at it 2Legit!
Yep. I stopped using my moving heads because I really hate running the wires to them lol. I am getting lazy in my old age. But now with my new battery powered movers, I won't have an excuse anymore lol.
2:23 Oh yeah, "you gotta have the latest gear mentality" 🙃Lets see in the future how many DJs that will sell their Maui44g2 or Evox12 just to get the newest Evolve70, talk about "crossing the lake to catch water"
Lol yeah. And guess what? The clients and guests could care less if you showed up with an EV-70, EVOX 12 or Maui44g2. ONLY DJs care lol.
Whats up bro! Its been a while!! I just bought the QSC K-C12’s black love em! Sold my Bose L-16’s
That's awesome!! I hope you like them. I've only heard great things about them.
Thanks for the reminder! I almost just bought the RCF Evox12, but I think I'll stick to my QSCs for another year.
Nothing wrong with that at all and you will STILL make money with the speakers you currently own.
I was still using my OG pioneer SX until 2023 when i got the rane one. I always buy just what i need.
And you can STILL gig and get paid using the original OG SX today if you really wanted to lol. Nothing wrong with that.
Agree so much, never not been booked bc another dj had furniture and I didn’t
Lol yep.
I’m really looking at the new evolves
They sure do look nice!! I was thinking about getting the EV-90s because I just love big bassy sound, but then I came to my senses lol. I don't need that at all and at the end of a long day of gigging, my body will appreciate the small size of my EV-50s.
@@DJ2Legit007 I had myself talked into buying the 70's earlier but I think I'm just going to wait for all the used EV 50's to flood the market 🤣 I always run external subs anyway 🤷
Don’t. They sound like shit
@ Very smart Justin. Yeah clients and guests LOVE the sound of my EV-50s and yes you can always add another sub to them if you want more low end.
I'm 100 percent with you on a facade. I'm just not a fan of the t style podiums. One feeling I've never been able to describe other than just too out there you hit on the head...."I feel naked without it". I feel too exposed. I also run my subs coupled under my table and so my setups a facade just works best. Also the food thing, being able to tuck back there during dinner and eat. I just prefer facades for now. I'd like a rolling TV booth but it's just practical for our venues. I have a black adj event table that I use for my black setups but same thing, no great place to hide my subs and wire management takes just a little longer to make sure nothing is exposed.
Man!! Seriously though. During cocktail and dinner time, I have the coolest place to chill while the guests are eating, drinking and socializing. Can't believe I slept on facades as long as I did. They are EXTREMELY practical and useful for a wedding DJ, imo.
I have the Bpm Spots and they are awesome! Enjoy
@Beelineentertainment Yes they are!! Mine arrived yesterday. I'm loving these things! So big and bright and was super easy to connect to Soundswitch.
@ no wires is life changing. Battery life is pretty good on them so far. I just try not to turn them on until the party really starts or guests start coming in to conserve battery. They seem to run out of gas around the 6-6 1/2 hour mark. Have fun
I hate to admit it bro but you are so right! 99% of the time the client doesn't care what gear we are using! Only we do mostly to impress other DJs. Unless you are doing events for the most elite people....they don't care. I have been racking my brain trying to figure out how to reach the upper class elites in Houston and still get the budget brides hitting me up wanting the $500 wedding DJ. One day I will be DJing for the wealthy class in Houston!!! ONE DAY!!!!! I do not have any column speakers in white and want to get some this year! But I would love some Maui 44G2 in white if I can find some on clearance since these new EV came out! Can't wait to see your entire battery powered lighting setup!
Those EV-70s and EV-90s look VERY appealing to me. If I was in the market for some white column speakers, I would go for one of those. Probably the EV-90s lol. I like to go big brother hahaha.
@ me too!! My favorite system now is the Icoa 12 inch tops with the 18 inch sub! It bangs bro!! Reviewing the Icoa tops tonight. Video should be up in a couple days!
@ Looking forward to it!! Also, I think I see some EV-90s in the not too distant future for Mr James King lol.
Which tube lights are you using again? They look great.
Thanks!! I use the Both Lighting 360 Pixel Tubes. You can purchase them directly from the link in my video description.
Honestly, thank you for this video. It is a GREAT reminder that keeping up with other DJ's isn't benefiting the client. I get caught in the...I want this, I need that spiral of death, but to your point, it really doesn't matter. Let's focus on buying less which = MORE PROFIT ;o)
Yes!! I mean, this is a business right? It is for me.
Did u see they coming out with the rane one mk II in the summer with on board effects stems and it's gonna be white
Of course you gotta have that plate of food lol
Yes!! Lol. I love having a place to eat my food without disturbing the guests or sitting at a table with the guests.
How do you feel about having TVs set up with DJ set up for clients
I have nothing against it at all. I even offer it as an add on for my clients. It doesn't sell much, but I do offer it.
Great video. I'm looking into investing for some array column speakers. I know you have EV 50 if you were in the market would you go with EV 70 or something else. There is someone in my area selling a pair EV 50 excellent condition for $1900
A pair of EV-50s at $1900 is a steal of a deal! That's $950 each. If I were in the market for column arrays today, I would get the EV-70s hands down. I love my 50s, but to have even more bass and more overall sound in a slightly bigger box would be really cool.
@@DJ2Legit007 Thank you for your honest opinion. How many ppl does the EV 50 cover.
@@jeffreymiller1031 The answer depends on who you talk to lol. I've done 200-250 people with them with no problem, but there are so many factors to take into consideration. There was not 250 people on the dance floor lol.
Don't fall for the hype of the EV 70's & 90's....BTW, the Maui 44's smash the EV's out of the park every day of the week.....BUT, everyone has what they like and I understand that you like the EV 50's. I'm a LD guy......each to their own.....ENJOY DJing whatever gear you use , be it EV's, Both Lighting, Chauvet, QSC's LD's whatever.....in the end its the same destination....HAPPY CUSTOMER VILLE (and happy DJ)
Thanks for your opinion.
you've compared them both side by side already? I wasn't able to make it to NAMM so I haven't heard the EV's yet.
@@justingarret4776I did. The new EVs are fucking garbage. Almost as garbage as the KC12
The simple the better and what easy to carry, don’t break your back with these heavy equipment
Agreed.
Well they have the rane mk2
Rane One MK2 is coming out this year 👍🏼
I know damn it. I just saw that lol. Oh well.... they'll be getting my money lol.
What’s a fair price for a used flx 10 I see DJs selling there gear to buy the new AZDJ stand alone
I don't know. Sorry.
my man great info as always but!!.... when you get a minute hop on over to cleveland terry page. he might have something that you just spoke about bro... and I know you don't like new gear... but might wanna look....
Oh my gawd!!! I can't believe they finally did it! My dream has come true! TAKE MY MONEY NOW!!! Hahahaha! Man, what a great year for gear. Rane One MKII. I been waiting forever for this.
I went back to using turntables at gigs cause I’m bored lol
Yep. We get bored and just wanna switch it up sometimes. I can totally relate lol.
I don’t like the podiums; hate being that close to the crowd where someone can bump into your computer connection or dump a drink on your gear. I agree totally about feeling naked and vulnerable. I also use a lot of banners on my facade for the particular occasion.
Yes, that's another thing I didn't mention. At crowded parties, people are just a little "too close" to me when I am behind that podium DJ table. Being behind my facade actually relaxes me more and therefore allows me to perform even better.
You see they releasing a rane one mk2
Yes I just saw that. Sigh... oh well... take my money now lol.
You are in luck they made a rane one MKII should be coming out soon
I know. Saw that today. Damn it.
Yea, I'm not a big fan of the podium hype as well. It's just more crap to carry. I like my set-up minimal and light as a mobile dj. I can fit everything in my Suv or worst case my little prius, and my set up is still beautiful with everything i need. I get a lot of compliments. Everything collapses which makes it easy to transport. That way I don't have to worry about a trailer etc. Light and nimble baby is the way to go.
I totally agree. I can set my facade system up so fast and it looks great! I get many compliments on it too and at the end of the night it's easy to tear it down quickly. So important for me as a solo op DJ.
@@DJ2Legit007 %100
Ima be honest too sir 🙂 I used to dogg out facades also BUT after using one 🤦 I had to bite my tongue and I'll admit I was just talking out my ass lol now I don't DJ without them 👍
Lol same here! Yes, I've been guilty of talking out of my ass before too.
Bad news for your New Year's resolution of not buying any new gear bro... Seems the Rane One Mk2 is coming out this summer lol
I know. Just saw that today, damn it! Lol
@@DJ2Legit007i have the original rane one. There are not enough upgrades for me to get the new now.
@@djxcel23 Same here. Stay tuned for my detailed video next week why I will not be getting the MK2, not this year, not next year, not ever.
The Only New Gear I'm Interested In Is Those Both Lighting Moving Heads When You Get Them Let Me Know Your Thoughts On Them Thanks 2Legit
Oh for sure! I promise I will do a review on them once I get them. Stay tuned!
So I guess you won't getting the rane mk2
Did you not watch this video all the way through? Lol
I watched it before the announcement of the mk2 .... late reply.... lol!
@Drewluv.-hr2lt Okay, then you already know my answer. Lol
Why are you using a mixer with a Rane One???
I'm so against Djs using mixers when there is no need when they have thousand dollar controllers. Am I missing something???
When I'm gigging, I don't use an external mixer with my Rane One. In my studio at home, I have a mixer connected because I have other things connected to the mixer as well. Hope that answers your question.
Cool. Thanks for clarifying. Apologies for sounding rude :)
Maaaaaaybe if we all stop cheating on our old gear, some of these new gear prices will start to come down!
Lol great idea!
I’ll help ya out - the EV70 and 90 suck. They have no mids. But for you clueless DJs with bad ears that think the 50s are acceptable for ANY use (they aren’t - they’re the worst speakers ever made), maybe you’ll like them.
The KC12 from QSC is mehhhh. Meant for small applications. They paid Justin and others for good reviews but after hearing them in person they’re very weak and don’t even sound good.
EVOX is hot trash too - they haven’t even had that system in their booth since COVID - because even RCF knows they made a shit product.
MAUI44G2 over everything . Only thing that is loud and sounds fantastic
Im looking at the REV 7 even though im still rocking with the DDJ-SX2, I tried with the RANE ONE but wasn't feeling it too much but the RANE PERFORMER looks nice @dj2legit
No worries. It's great that we have so many choices on the market now. Get what works best for you! For me? I'm getting that new Rane One MKII. Been waiting on it forever lol.
Hey 2 Legit do you still have access to TikTok? I sent you a message.
I do. Will respond shortly.
