The Right DJ Equipment for the Right Job
|
The biggest question of course is what type of DJ are you going to be? Do you intend to be a still DJ? Maybe setting up your own radio station? Or are you wanting to be a mobile DJ, and for absence of a better term, a bard. This definitely has an effect on what kind of DJ equipment you'll purchase as there's some that may be set up permanently and some that is able to be picked up and moved at will. If you're more of the second, then you need to make sure that you get cartable DJ equipment as well as a carrying case for your gear. The first, and maybe the most vital part of the DJ equipment is a turntable. The meaning of turntable has changed quite a lot with the passage of time, as originally a turntable was a device that played vinyl records. Since that form of media has been and gone we have switched to other types such as CD's, DVD's, flash media, and that kind of thing. You also have to ask yourself if you're going to be using CD's at all. Perhaps you will be desiring to use a portable computer with some variety of DJ program. Before you ask, no, Winamp is not a DJ program. If you're going to be performing at events or anywhere at all for what it's worth then you are going to require to make certain you have got a decent microphone. People are going to require to hear what you're saying, so you must make sure of two things before you buy a microphone. First off you need to make sure that your words are clear and sharp so everyone can understand you and you do not sound like the dispatcher at a drive through eaterie. The 2nd thing that you are going to need to test is that the microphone doesn't have too much feedback. If it does then you're going to find that nobody can hear you, and in fact all they are going to hear is some sort of screeching sound. Remember that you are going to be performing in the dark lots of the time, so be sure that you have work lights. There are certain lights sold that may light up your board but they will not trouble the event that is going on outside of your booth. There are several other pieces of equipment that you are going to need to buy, of that there isn't any doubt, but you always have to make sure that the DJ equipment you purchase is of prime quality and that it works for you personally.
