Thread: What gears do you bring in your gigs?

  1. #1

    What gears do you bring in your gigs?

    As the question says, what gears/gadget do you usually use and bring in your usual/regular/special gigs?

    Here's my list:

    Laptop - Dell Inspiron 14R
    i-fold stand
    NI Audio 4 DJ
    NI Multi-core cables
    Traktor timecode CDs
    A pair of Traktor timecode vinyl (occasional)
    USB cables for Audio4, X1 and Dicers
    Laptop power supply
    Kontrol X1 (in X1 case)
    Novation Dicers (in Case Logic for Nintendo DS lite, fits perfectly)
    Sennheiser HD-280 Pro (soon to be replaced with V-Moda M100)
    A pair of Shure M44-7 mounted on Technics Headshells (occasional)
    A 320gb WD external HDD and a 16gb thumb drive
    A USB powered LED lamp (used for dark lit DJs booths)

    Sometimes I also bring a few vinyl records (20-25 pieces)

    Did you choose digital DJing cos it's more convenient?

    Yup! Hahaha!

    Luckily, they all fit in one bag and is still much lighter than bringing about 60 vinyl records, a pair of carts and a headphones.

    You know, we have a sticky thread where people post pictures of their setup... What are you wanting to know? What gear people bring is going to depend on the gig they're doing.
