DJ In Action (In The Mix)
When we are playing for the crowd in an open format, here is what goes on behind the scenes to ensure smooth beat mixing and continuous music for the entire event! We use a custom cue monitor so we can hear the mix relation in real time allowing for room dynamics like echo and phase alignment. Typically only the DJ can hear the cue mix in relationship to the main mix that the audience hears, in this behind the scenes video, you get to hear what the DJ hears to get the song mix in line and create a seemless mix experience!
Time Lapse System Setup
Here is a time lapse video from walking in the door to a ready to go sound and lighting system. Every location and time duration is different, but this is a good example of a event venue with 2nd floor access using an elevator for loading in and out of the venue. It took about approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes which isn't to long, but certainly not short either!
