Sound Systems Discussion, please read first post

I bought the Pyle amps:waste of money. Cheap make, feel, look, Noisey, and they lied in the specs. They said it could work at 2 ohm, but reading the booklet then shows into be 8 ohm. Which explains why I blew one at 4ohm load.

I bought the Gemini speakers that courts has. For the price I think they are good. Nice sound, clean clear. They are made with thin ply and don't go much lower than 45hz.

If there is a 2 channel amp which can give 1200rms total @ 2ohms load, I might consider getting it, and two more of the Gemini speakers. Throw in a sub and have small sumting.

^^Steve's demos anything you want. What better can you ask for? Why dont you ask them for a demo of the two side by side? I've seen them do this for people.

I hear the Sounstream is a little better than the Gemini though. Quality wise IMHO, soundstream just a little better.

Kasey has a pair of EV that WILL mash up both those speakers. I think they brand new too. Why dont you spend the little extra cash for something WAAAYYY better like the EV?

Yow. Fellas ...
Question about Serato???

I now purchased a small mac book..
I am in the process of sorting music etc.

Wanted to know .. you all just dump music on hard drive without filing and organise in serato..

or you organise when filing on the hard drive and then do another sort in serato.
Any advice which is the better way???

I relatively new to this serato thing...

[DjDaniel]

Well I did both actually. I organized music properly by Genre in my Hard drive. Then I made crates in Serato. Eg Back in Time Hits (POP), Soca 2012 (HITS). (Crates are like folders in Serato)

The process of making crates, especially if you have a lot of music can take some time. However, if you organize the music on the hard drive first, it can be way easier.

Thanks.....Plenty music to start... steups.. regret I started this hobby late in life

[DjDaniel]

Ay, don't worry about that. Just do a little bit everyday. Now for now you will finish.

However, if you have to go to a gig before you finish why not use Virtual Dj in the meantime? It scans for folders in your hard drive so you don't have to make crates.

[SmokeyGTi]

there's a tool , cant remember the name that creates crates and subcrates, mimicing your current folder structure.
problem is , the more folders and subfolders you have could cause serato to crash.
I personally find this crates thing real dotish, everytime i add new music i have to update my crates.

[DjDaniel]

If I could only get that tool eh^ @SmokeyGTi


It is rather dumb, I can't tell you how many times I got new music and forgot to update my crates, only to realize in the middle of a gig.

[s.jaski]

You could build crates and den add sub crates make sure u analyze files when you done build crates. Take a lil peak of my creates

The name of the "Tool" is ScratchTools.............. I personally find it is a bit complicated......... it is a long string of code that have to be input to read your hard drive and copy to your serato crates.........I do not like it because i have lots of stuff on my hard drive that I do not really use. I just keep it there for just in case. And using this Tool may fill your Crates with unnecessary music........... but if you only have music that you use on your hard drive, it maybe useful for you.............

fellas I have a question….

I organising my crates in serato… however when i analyse some files i don't get the bpm… coming up. its not much files but it happens…

How do i rectify this problem?? Any suggestions??

[s.jaski]

...

[DJ Q]

That happens to me sometimes in Virtual DJ
Usually I'll have to reencode the file.

You can use sound forge or a very handy tool called dbpoweramp.
