Hi heres a list of the kit that I have got, I am trying to find some pics but havent located them as yet!

1 SKB Gig Rig (fitted with)
Side Shelf

Alesis 10 channel Mixer with FX
Numark twin CD player
Behringer Graphic equaliser
3 x 1000w Amps
1 Karaoke CD player
1 Radio Mic
1 Sure SM58

Laptop with Virtual DJ
Behringer BCD2000

2 RCL Speaker with twin 15" Drivers 600w each
2 Warrior Speakers 250W each
2 Stageline Speakers 250w each
2 old speakers with twin 12" Drivers
2x Speaker stands

3x Spinmaster 3
2x Spinmaster 1
1x XTC
1x Wildblaze
2x Soundlab Vasto Moonflowers
2x Soundlab (cant remember what they are called)
Goal posts with trussing & T bars
2x 3ft Light Screens
2x 6 bulb par36 light boxes
4x Fal light boxes
1x 3ft light box
1x lighting Arch
1x strobe light
2x Mini Lazers

1 Black Cloth for frontage

I obviously dont tend to use the light screens anymore but I am still loathed to get rid of them......lol, nostalgia I suppose

Now i know that this is not the best quality gear but I have only been using it occasionally but now that I want to go back on the road again I want to make sure that I still enjoy doing gigs before committing more funds to upgrade the gear!


Stuff I want to add to the setup

American Audio SD2 SD Card player
American Audio DJ DP2 Media Controller (to replace the BCD2000)
Starcloth
Par36's or Par56's LED's for uplighting
DMX Controllers

Projector & Screen

Please let me know what you think, as soon as I find the pictures I will upload them!

If I do enjoy doing gigs then I will look at gradually upgrading the lighting!

Be Lucky

I think Jamie is telling us purely as a matter of interest :)

SKB (Plastic) racks seem to be popular in America, but I don't think I have found one DJ in England yet with one.

Well basically when I first registered on the forum I said that I would post up some pictures of my rig, as I cant find the pictures I thought that I would just post up a list of the kit that I have at present and also the stuff that I would like to add to the rig.

I would really like some opinions on the kit that I would like to add!

You just have! My backup rig sits in a shallow SKB 4u X-Case ready to go. To be fathough it took weeks to come as it was sourced from the states by a supplier in the UK. :)

I've been using one for about 6 years :confused:

Jamie,

Back on topic (i hijacked it ..)

Difficult to comment on specifics on your kit (there is a lot of it!), plus we don't know what type of gigs you do as a rule.

This what I would be looking at ..
* Do you have adequate backup kit at a gig should the worst happen. I notice you have no backup miser for example.
* How long this little lot is going to take to setup and will you get adequate return on your investment in time?
* Can you charge for the projector or uplighting and sell them frequently enough to get back your investment.
* Concentrate on items of 'core' kit, especially if you are going to use DMX as you will have more control over over your lights.
* Sell anything surplus ... you perhaps have too many speakers, non DMX lights can go

I've been concentrating more on presentation and on a less is more approach recently. I often spend nearly as much time taping wires and tidying as I do setting up.
