Setting up gear in the club

After many questions and some confusion about how I actually set up my gear and play in clubs I put together this video to show you a typical gig. I recorded an explanation of the gear and connections while setting up in a San Francisco club and then demonstrate some of the ways you could map the Novation SL25 to Traktor 3 after the show was over.

    nice video :-) using the novation for ableton live myself.

    a question: can you show us some footage of you and the vci at a nightclub if you have the time?

    kind regards,

    Nice, the Novation ReMOTE 25 sl is becoming a clasic for Djs

    yeah, the novation 25 is great but lugging it around the world sucks. There are no backpacks that fit it.

    There is an older video that I shot right after I got the vci-100. Look at the bottom of this page:

    I will shoot another one after namm though..

    What did you say at the VERY end… “a nice laptop blah…” I followed most of that (I’ll have to look up what RNE? means?), but couldn’t hear what you said there.

    @JM he said “a nice laptop, with a nice laptop stand. And that’s pretty much it”
