the picture is reversed and the “hockey puck” is one ear of the sony dj headphones. I guess he uses that somewhere. I have used in ears before when i have had a major delay with an outdoor gig when i am set up front of house. i only had the ec2’s with a dnx-100. i liked the cue/master mon mix in my mixer, but never knew how loud it was in the house. great for ear protection though

Hi Folks,

I saw this artikel about in ears. I use them with a little mixer. I put one channel on the record out of the mixer, and the other one just in the headphone out. I mix with the little extra mixer the main signal over my in ears, then I put the headphone mix on and pan it to my favorite pre monitor ear. I my case, left. If you do this right, you have absoluty the best mixing experience there is. Don’t put it to load, then you can feel and hear the bass. I’m using a custom moulded soft silicon twin driver in-ear monitor system. The only negativity is the price. But new ears are much expensiver……

I started out with a cheap pair of headphones and had no issues but then I decided to take a jump into some entry level earphones (Shure SE115’s) and I wouldn’t switch back. I usually keep only one in all the time and use it to monitor my mix. When I want to cue up my next track I start by turning the cue/mix knob to 80% of just the cued track. then if I like it I put it to the 50% mark and match them up and then got 100% mix and bring the track in with the Vol fader. But I get judged all the time for using earphones because it’s not the “dj image.”

Earphones get a big thumbs up form me!!

TIP: I have custom molds built to suit my ears and they fit very nice. I advise these. The canalphones are westone UM-1… I am very happy with them. I don’t have to replace the tips and can easily clean the tips if needed.

Awesome, I never take my cans off unless I’m playing with a mixer that doesn’t have the master cue (like the old Rane MP2016) so this would be a natural transition for me… finally something good came out of not having money for monitors when I learned to mix haha.
