    I watched this video just to get some info on the pioneer system you are using. I have them on order of course and on their way, HOWEVER. The video itself was terrific. Thank you for sharing. I already know all of this, but, Your knowledge kept me locked in the whole time. Great job! Thanks again!

    Thanks for this - I have plenty of experience with home audio gear using XLR and RCA connections but I needed a basic intro for DJ gear. You have a few more connections but ultimately its the same concept - source(s) into amp or powered monitors.

    Hello Kosmic Sound. If you use a second usb in the second cdj 2000 nexus, could you click both on the usb and link so that you get both types of information? I mean if you have both of the clicked will you get the music on both usbs?

    If using CDJs, don't use the crossfader, or just using the mixer, learn to use the volume faders. You lose so much sound using the crossfader.

    Great tutorial but I just have one question. Right now I'm working with my Pioneer DDJ-S1 controller and I'm think about upgrading to a proper pair of decks and mixer, similar to what you've got except I might use a DJM-2000. I was wondering there was anyway to connect my laptop into the system some how because all my music is stored on my laptop and prefer to play if from there rather than a USB stick. Is this possible? I would love your advice

    When you hooked up the Turntable where do you get your music from without a laptop? I recently got a DJM 500 and waiting for Stanton t62 turntables but am curious how to hook it up to my laptop for future gigs. Sorry for any dumb questions still learning about everything.

    @robertw.1499 4 года назад

    I have a DDJ SX 2 wired to my iMac with two Pioneer S-DJ 05 monitor speakers. At what point do I set the output volume of the iMac? Do I wind that output up to max, set the channel levels, then the master or what? My speakers are quite powerful, and as mid-range desk top speakers, they can really rock. The blue LED lights will start to show red when clipping occurs. They also have a remote volume controller. So many possibilities but not sure how to optimise their setup. Please advise 👍

I've been having a lot of trouble connecting them, I think I might need an cable that ends in RCA as well as starts with it (sorry if that's not how you're meant to say it) but if someone could tell me what cable I'll need that would really help.
