    Thank you for your build instructions, I’m about to mod mine, I’m also adding sheet metal reinforcements so it’s not stressing the plywood itself, (I have an Odessey case for the DDJ-1000) let’s see what happens! This also my second arm, the first one is mounted on my studio desk for my beat making stuff..

  • @dantecelle
    @dantecelle 6 лет назад +1

    I have the original gator case with arm...$500. I noticed your arm was very low. You could make some type of extension and put it over the mount/pole and make your laptop higher. I like mine at almost eye level.

    • @DJRickWeb
      @DJRickWeb  6 лет назад

      Yeah the gator is taller. I also slid mine down about 4 inches on the mount. So I could raise it. I like the height it is at though

    Great video!
    Excellent install.
    If I may suggest you can take the 2 thumb screws in place them in laptop trey while it's apart. This way there is no need to rely on the magnetic holder. Just a thought.
    Thanks for sharing bro!

    • @DJRickWeb
      @DJRickWeb  6 лет назад +1

      Because space is tight on top the sz they wont fit in the tray with the case lid shut. That was my initial spot to put them

    I wanna see you put an xlr mic lead in that mic input where the laptop mount is, i dont think it will go in. Well it might go in but it will be putting stress on the input socket with sideways pressure.

    • @DJRickWeb
      @DJRickWeb  5 лет назад

      It fits amd yes it dies put pressure. Has it like that for over a year now. And well over 100 events using it like that. No issues

    Nice work on your case. Great idea to have everything in your coffin. That case must be heavy as shit! I'm guessing close to 100lbs. All I got to say for a critique is use cable ties to clean it up, as long as you don't do a part 4 and add another component, you won't have to cut cable ties out. Great work!

    Hey DJ Rick Webb I am a young 15 year old dj and I have started a dj business about 5-6 months ago because I am confident enough with my skill. My problem I’m having is getting more gigs and advertising as I have little money to work with. I do work with other djs in my area and do have a lot of gear and music. Any ideas?

    • @DJRickWeb
      @DJRickWeb  6 лет назад

  • @kcirenim
    @kcirenim 6 лет назад +1

    I had no idea your mic receiver was under your controller. In all your events you seem to be pretty far from it so I don't see any problem with losing coverage, is that right? I use an external mixer when I need to use a microphone because the quality that comes from my mic controller input is terrible. Is that essentially why you use a driverack is for a better sounding mic?

    • @DJRickWeb
      @DJRickWeb  6 лет назад

      Correct under the sz. And I have had no issues with my gtd rack with long signal. And no the driverack was and doesnt improve my mic audio. It does reduce feedback though

      Its grounded using the surge protector. The surge protector is a 3 cable. Hot neutral ground. And so is the powercon.

    Hi DJ RIck Webb your using a DriveRack PA2 JBL SRX815P and JBL VRX 918s how did you configure these ? I saw that you've plug these Top and Sub in DR PA2 in Low and High so the audio comes out on SRX815P will be High only am i correct? If not, what is the configuration did you manage to set on these audio gears? Kindly detail...Thanks

    • @DJRickWeb
      @DJRickWeb  6 лет назад

      The output labels having nothing to do with the actual signal that comes out. The high mid and low are really 3 full range outputs that you can set your crossovers, gain, limiters, parametric eq, delay differently on all 3 outputs. Go watch my live stream on the dbx drive rack for more detail

      @@DJRickWeb Many thanks man for speedy response, i have the same audio gears that you have except for the sub, my sub is dB Technologies SUB 18H which has a built-in crossover,. So the sounds out on your SRX 815P has a high, mid and low as well? I mean the normal sounds will come out without the DR PA2.

    You know if that laptop case came standard with that arm and everyone had it but then someone invented a slide tray to slide back-and-forth on the case to put your laptop on top of it you will be modifying your case to have a slide tray. It’s just human nature.
