      Oh, you kept your Mixars turntables. From your unboxing video, I thought you were gonna get rid of them. You weren't too happy with the tone arm so what made you keep them?

    • @HuFilms
      @HuFilms  4 года назад +1

      @@mingusmkubukeli Hey! I kept them because they're good for Serato and I don't play vinyl so much these days. They aren't good TT's for vinyl as the tone-arm sucks bad but for Serato they work great. That said, I might swap 'em out for Technics MK7's when I get some spare cash.

    Beautiful video mate! I absolutely loved it and didn't realise you had such skills on the decks. Loved the crabs thrown in!! The slider shots were beautiful. I have to admit I haven't cleaned a vinyl in years so I really should learn from you.

  • @BoomDocs14K
    @BoomDocs14K 2 года назад

    You are actually very nice and precise with your skills! I say that because your opening dialogue stated that you were a videographer by trade. So I wrongly assumed that the DJ gear was just something you maybe played with to kill time. Then, I noticed you had some serious gear, which enticed me to continue watching your video. Once you started scratching and juggling, I said, "Nah, this guy is pro-level with his!" I don't know why I under-estimated you, because I'm a videographer & graphic designer by trade as well as a DJ.
    So with that said, I appreciate your video and the time you spent creating the content. I have been adding DJ sets to my channel since the pandemic began. I use 2 to 3 camera angles, but the biggest issue I have is putting in all the work and editing not knowing if it will be flagged for copyrights. Just the same, appreciate your content! Cheers!

    • @HuFilms
      @HuFilms  2 года назад

      Hey, thanks a lot. I enjoyed reading this comment and getting your feedback, sorry for the late reply, hope u see this. Yeah, I've been into mixing for years but only more recently did I start to scratch and juggle. I always thought I was too old but then I saw a video of Jazzy Jeff at his 50th birthday and I said, OK I gotta learn this! I gave up alcohol a few years ago and when I did that, I found my skills improve as I wasn't having a beer or a few when mixing. Lately, I haven't been doing so much but I know that a few good sessions will get my skills on point. The copyright thing really is a total pain and ruined my live sets which I wanted to do on Facebook. Even now, it's kinda killed my motivation to do mixes. I really hope that they come to some sort of solution for it. No one is ripping tracks from mixes anymore. Anyone into the music will just buy it. I must have a look at your stuff, send on a link to a video.

    Hi mate, I’m looking into video recording my vinyl dj sets at home. Just a couple of things I need to know really.
    1 - What sort of camera do I need for recording? I’m just looking basic.
    2 - How do I get the best sound quality from the mix? Would I need an output from my mixer, or I’ve got a Scarlet interface actually? Do I need to input the signal to the recording device? I could really do with some clarity on this please. Thanks Andy

    • @HuFilms
      @HuFilms  Год назад +1

      It depends on what you’re doing. Short insta reels and stuff, you can get away with anything. But the best option would be to use your sound card. Failing that, a field recorder is always a good idea because they tend to have good preamps for a nice clean sound. You could also record into a camera. Certain cameras have decent inputs and will give an ok sound. Even if they don’t, chances are the sound might be fine for what you need. Again, it depends. If I was doing say, a scratch routine or something, just for show., I’d go straight into the camera.

    Great video ! How are you liking the mixars TTs now . Do you still get the rattle , was the issue solved by tightening the screws. Lastly what weight you're using on the M-447s .

    • @HuFilms
      @HuFilms  4 года назад +1

      They're actually decent for this setup but I definitly wouldn't recommend them for playing real vinyl especially in a club environment. The tone arms do rattle and I didnt bother trying to fix then via the screws as they're really tight screws and are factory set so it may not be a good idea. The 'looseness' of them doesnt affect them skipping. In terms of weight, as its serato and has skip proof technology you dont need that much weight. So I just have the tone arm weight pushed fully in but not reversed like youd have it for vinyl on a technics.

      Thanks man. Honestly, if you can, learn Davinci resolve. They have a HD version for free from their website.

      This is done in the edit. Bring in your video file(s) then align up the audio. Very easy once you know how.

    Hello Hugh,
    I have a question: I am editing a DJ set from a 2h session. I need only a part of it, maybe 10 minutes. What would be a good point to start the video? A quiter part of the set? Or a blast? Thank you :)
