up the good work brother .
Hatchie... I always wanted an EK. Never found a clean one though... I would love to do a K24 swap just for a daily... I honestly havent been to AWD but one time in the last few months. Mile has been nice enough to ship me everything I need. Right now we are living in my house full time so we are almost 2 hours away from the shop. I miss our apartment in Ft. lauderdale. I will get down there soon and I'll check it out though...

Thanks WestSideBilly for cleaning up the thread.... Lets keep this a fun thread.

I will probably do the last little bit of prep for the parts today and removing the center caps from the wheels LOL...

Most-Wanted, I know what you mean about running center caps on your wheels.

I have the DPTs in 17x9 and I'm still up in the air if I'm going to put them on. I think it looks quite mean without the flashy chrome R myself.

Looks good MX. I'm sure I'll fold under peer pressure and remove the center caps

We are now wingless

Hate to break the bad news to ya but I do use only the best so your post is ridiculous and makes no sense. I am on serato scratch for clubs(Serato itch with the NS7 at home) and use a Mac Book Pro so there is nothing better there. As for mixers and players, no reason to spend $1000's for the house because every place I go has their own equipment and you cant bring in mixers/players(nobody does that-LOL). The NS7 is just for fun at the house. I find it hard to believe you are bringing in mixers, players, etc to different clubs. Are you bringing in speakers too? LOL... I'd love to know what clubs let you bring in your own gear. Down here all the equipment is already built into the booth and very well set up. Only thing you plug in is your music which I have my main 1.5 terabyte drive, two 500 passports as back ups, and 500 back up on the Mac. So not a bad beginning makes no sense. I am set up as well as any Pro DJ in South Florida. I do not know 1 DJ that lugs mixers/players anywhere-LOL.... If your referring to not having the best table at the house, ok. Im not spending $3K plus to tinker when I am using fully built in systems at clubs. Just doesnt make sense.

Hmm maybe djikonatx is referring to record tables/mixer's only. I dj around the house as well although my genre is reggae/dancehall. I have the macbook pro and may add a some cdjs later but for now my midi controller/mixer does the job.

Nice work with the evo, Most-wanted. Iam paying close attention

Pragmatic... I like it! Honestly, if you're actually playing in clubs, the need of owning a 'club-standard' DJ setup in your own home is very small. Unless your are an amateur producer, a standard mixer (such as the one you've shown) works perfectly. A good setup could consist of an Akai MPD24 with a 2-Channel Mixer and Rane or Tracktor, all the way to an inclusive Denon or Numark CDJ-Mixer DJ setup like the one you've shown.

Here's the last shot of my personal setup before I sold my soul entirely to Ableton Live:
- DJM800 w. EFX500, CDJ-1000MK3's and Akai MPD24


Currently I'm using Live 8 with the DJM-1000, Akai APC-40 (for clip/track launching and EQ'ing), and a Jazzmutant Lemur (for effects and modifying or looping anything within the soundwave).

not a bad beginning setup you have.... J/K... LOL.. Looks like a great set up. I'd like to get more into it with recording and stuff. Just wish I had more time for it. I may start DJ'ing in a few months at a strip club Its a no brainer LOL... My wife's Grandmother returns from Brazil in December so I will probably do it then. We need someone to watch our son and she is the only one I trust The one club has a deciated Light and Fog guy Also has a 100' LED wall and the second one is around 50-75'. Dont remember the specs. Anyways, the DJ is only responsible for music... I love checking out all the set ups. BIG MONEY$$$ in these places in audio equipment...

This is what I'm use to... However life is changing fast with a 9 mo baby at the house
