I have £350 burning a hole in my pocket. What should I do a part from buy you a beer?

Suggestions for a new bit of kit then...

A nice 100mw laser?

Well you could take us out to dinner.....

The laser one is good..... better headphones? maybe some earplugs that prevent hearing loss, because working in the industry will kill your hearing.

Or save the money.... take a holiday....

Tsk! Tsk! Brian, you should know better than to buy anything this side of PLASA.

You're still after a Denon DN-X1500 mixer from last PLASA aren't you?

Kingys Denon twin MD player he has for sale for £350

Dinner for DJU? 2500+ members @ £25 each....OUCH! I guess you'd want me to supply a disco and glowsticks too.

Yes, I am still planning to get a DN-X1500, but they cost over £500, and I will probably need a different flightcase. I would also need to sell my DJM600 first to finance it, and I am working every weekend from here to eternity, so cannot do without a mixer for a few days - this will have to wait until I have £600 spare so I can run the DN-X1500 and DJM600 together for a few days. Or shall I save up for a A&H Xone: 92?

I have good enough DJ headphones already (MDR-V700), and ear plugs. Thinking about trying out the Shure in ear ones though.

Twin MD player? I have a Denon DN-M2000R already, the reliability is very poor on this unit, so I would not trust it on the road, besided I don't have a use for MD.

Laser .... hmmmm, interesting.

Keep 'em coming.

I have a nice Denon DN-D 4000 you could have......

You could use the money to bribe you boss into giving me that job
Or
SAVE IT and use it as spending money on your next trip to Miami.

Save for the Allen and heath you will love it....

remember years ago when women burned their bra's
well, you could always buy 100 copies of the crazy frog song and stand in the middle of trafalger square and burn them. youd most prob. even make it on to the news.
so many people would respect you for that and your bookings would double.




ok ill shut up now

I like that idea BURN THE FROG!
Good publicity stunt

actually, burn the bra sounds better

Buy £350 worth of bras ?

Have a short holiday!!!!

The Allen & Heath Xone:92 seems to be winnig at this time, although I will need to save up for a bit longer.

150 pinspots

Some asbestos trousers. The heat might render you sterile if you're not careful!!!

Give it to me!

PAULA, what are you saying!!!!!!!!

just dont make the same mistake i made at the manchester meet with ads and high fidelity after i left them cost you a bundle !!!!!

Buy a DMX gobo light like the Futurelight Scan 250 from Terralec

My D reg escort van..

Hmmm, sounds like you need another DN-X1500 demo Brian...with the latest free software enhancements.

Yummy!

I looked at the videos on the website - all the fancy filtering for one. I figure the dance tracks I play have got all of that stuff on them to start with, so no need for me to add to it. Also the echo and other effects - I don't even muck about with the EQ while I'm playing, so changing the sound to that extent isn't necessary for me.

Cheers,

Jack.

I suppose its true for many items, they have more features on them than most people would use, but if you gave 10 different people the same item, all its features would be used - just like that tool in a penknife for getting stones out of horses hoofs would only be used by those equestrians who ride near stoney paths..., the same equestrian however may not find any use for the tool on the same penknife, which removes fish hooks from fishes... The same idea works for mobile phones too, eg: not everyone would use WAP, or the Insert Picture into SMS option etc - some will, some wont.

With the DN-X1500 there were a few features which I didn't think that I'd use to begin with, but now I'm using almost all of them - though certainly not all on the same night.

The ability to switch the EQ on, or off with a single on-off button was one such feature, but now its a great way of running a track on "flat eq" with the EQ switch OFF, but with the Bass, Mid and Treble controls set exactly how I want them, ready for part of the track thats coming up - bringing in the eq instantly, without having to adjust 3 knobs is now a single button press.

Similarly, I didn't think I'd use the DN-X1500's Echo feature, which also offers Echo Looping. But, since the looping links itself to the tracks BPM (either automatically of by you tapping the bpm manually for a few seconds), you can use Echo loop to loop ANY source, even vinyl turntables - ideal for the rare occasion when I want to mix vinyl to vinyl using only one vinyl deck - the looping covers the record swapping time/task.

Remember too that thanks to the USB port, more free effects can be issued by Denon for download from their website, into the mixer in the future.
