      2:11 is misleading, at lease in my experience, used the ns7 as well as rane 12s and neither skip under virbration, there is tecnically nothing to skip since there is no needle, not only that but now with the DVS phase system turntables no longer skip as well

    Carlo, long time watcher, I really appreciate seeing an entirely different approach to DJing. While you focus more on scratching and very impressive transitions, the way I was trained was more of a subtle "pick the right song and let the crowd vibe" style. I wonder if there is a potential video idea about different schools of thought on how to construct a dj set?

    • @djcarlo
      @djcarlo  2 роки тому +14

    First of all, thank you for posting your sets and tips for DJs with different equipment and styles. I'm old school from the 80s, and I love the feel and control I have with vinyl. I grew up beat matching vinyl, but now I use Serato and turntables with Phase wireless controllers. This set up has changed my life!! I worked an outdoor gig last week that was pretty windy with no issues. But that works for me. I agree with other comments that everyone is different and you should find what works for you. Keep posting more videos brother. Love the content.

New technology will always help make your gigs easier (turntables in the wind in the 80s? Say goodbye to your needles haha). Thanks for the kind words bud, and I'll keep making good stuff with this kind of support!

    Really nice outlook!!! I used to swear that working with 1200’s were what needs to be used at all times…but since the jog wheels came out, it actually makes things better because of the non-skip matter, which means something to me, I would love some motorized platters like the Rane MK12’s RaneOne, Rev7 to work with and of course the OG 1200’s (but for my room). With the new technology I can appreciate it, and respect to Carlo for rockin them with ease (well, it did take some practicing to get where he’s at)
    I’m good with the jog wheels for the time being. I’m eager to learn all I can to get to the next level.

      @@thecreepysilence4290 That's great for Techno fans, but a lot of the world doesn't listen to Techno, or any sort of EDM. For the type of music I like it can't really be done in a live performance way. At least not more than very rare to change shit up. I have an MPC One and can whip up some spontanous boom bap beats for a live performance, but that's much better suited for people like you who do EDM style music. Even tho I don't like that kind of music, I can appericate seeing someone who's good at improvising and creating live EDM on the spot. Just like I can appericate a DJ like Q Bert or Babu doing some crazy turntable shit.
      If you're a good EDM DJ you can get huge gigs and make big bucks. If you're a hip-hop DJ and tried to do everything live and create music on the spot, pretty sure you'd go broke lol.

    Denon is the king of motorized platters. They have been doing it before the laptop era came about. The SC6000M is the perfect blend of everything. From the past, to the present, to the future. It's got motorized platters. A big laptop screen. Internal hard drive. And internal standalone software. Also they can stream music too.

    Yep!! Couldn't have said better. I agreed with everything you said. I started with turntables myself in the early 80's but I quickly adapted to the CD jog wheels when they first came out. Too much fanboyism going around. New or old technology, it's all good. Just find what works best for you and that is the best for you. I got the SC5000M's when they came out so going to the SC6000M's doesn't make sense for me. At some point I will be getting the Rane one's. I'm also currently using the Technics SL-DZ1200 with DVS. Also have the Denon Prime 4 & Pioneer XDJ-XZ. Oh and I forgot the Traktor gear too. Lol

I plan on getting a motorized player to mess around with. My gut leads me towards the Rane but I don't like how you need a laptop to use it (unless I could use it to control one of the off decks on the Prime 4) so I will probably get the Denon one at some point.

      I still find it odd that Rekordbox isn't compatible with the Rev 7, given that it's a Pioneer product. Now, while I did start with turntables (and still use 'em!), you don't need to play vinyl man. Getting real records takes up a lot of space, and they're not exactly light either haha

    I picked up a Denon dns5000 for $50 at an auction. As someone who'd dj'd with vinyl for 20 years plus, the motorized platter was very familiar to me. I find it easier to beat match with a motorized CD player than a non motorized platter like cdj's. It just has that familiar feel. On a cdj, the tension adjust is very important to get the right feel you are used to.

    I love the media player capabilities to be used without a laptop with the SC6000M. But my favorite controller right now is still the NS7III by Numark. Soo many features including touch controls. But I know that these videos are usually showcasing more up to date controllers, like today in 2022 everyone is on the the Rev7 which I personally don't think hold a candle to either of the SC6000M or NS7III.

      Make sure that vinyl mode is on! Otherwise, it sounds like your platter's contact points might be wonky. That's a common problem with controllers, especially if moisture seeped in somehow. I recommend bringing your 400 to your local Pioneer DJ service center if that's the case.

    Am I missing something, numark ns series has been around for a while. They always seem to get overlooked. As someone who started mixing on soundlab belt drive decks in the early 2000s, the movement was a nice visual aid whilst mixing, I've upgraded to dj controllers since but the first was a numark omni, something about the jog wheels not moving always bugged me, went back to technics 1210s then tried the pioneer ddjsr and again the platters not moving seemed odd, now using numark ns7 3 and despite never having to change the "record" there is something refreshing about still being able to physically slow down/speed up/backspin/scratch the track as opposed to "bumping" it to speed, and the interaction with the platter feels more natural, maybe I'm just too stuck in my ways but being an original vinyl dj the feel for me is everything.

    Vast majority is a manner of perspective. When I began Dj'ing there were no ready made digital controllers. The few that were working off synths and keyboards alone at the time (closest comparison at the time) are now legends. When they started coming out the "vast majority" tended to see those fledgling controller setups as something of a gimmick and those using them as not being serious or "real" DJs. Times clearly change. I came up learning on turntables so a motorized controller feels incredibly comfortable given how familiar beatmatching via rpm control was a must have skill. Coming from that far back, I always get a laugh out of what people see as serious equipment/skills these days. As you've pointed out Carlo, how you put on the show and the rig you use is far less important than the quality of the show you put out. I imagine a digital rig, no motor, is great for most these days but a cat like me still loves his tables and anything that can bring that feel. Current setup is 2xTechnics, DDJ1000-SRT, best of both worlds for me.

      The new motorized controllers aren't affected by them, and neither will turntables using Phase (unless you slam it hard enough to cause the platter itself to jump). However, since there are still DJs who use an analog/digital hybrid set up, needles will still skip if you're using timecodes.
