  1. hi all,, thinking of upgrading the drive equipment here,thinking of a mpsd-1 duel sd card and mp3 player. would appreciate any comments that any one have regarding the usability of this player before i make a purchase. at the moment i use a twin cd player so a complete change of format and licence requirements would have to be realised i know... any advice on this unit would be very much appreciated......thanks,
  2. i use a lighting panel,keep meaning to upgrade to something a bit more modern but is has some lighting control equipment built in and would need to be electrically redesigned....
  3. makes you wonder how they managed to smuggle in such a inconspicuous device,, down there trousers no doubt.....
  4. Crickey.... this will age some of us,no hiding place now, it was the man from larimey dont ask the year..ok.
  5. oh,, i thought they only lived around here......
  6. hello and welcome, seems that you have been around the block a few times,, and yes my friend once owned a van-der molen stereo system..
  7. thanks glenn, based just south of ipswich (up the town,ooops sorry) so i will give it a look.
  8. what,, hope your not encouraging the apprentice to smoke.. or ain`t i quite reading this post right...
  9. bandwidth,, the thread has a theme running through it that says that corded mics seems to sound better then rf mics,there is good reason for this to allow different users to share the same spectrum each channel is separated by frequency which has a center frequency plus its width,however the channel is restricted to a certain width to allow more users to use the alloted band so the full set of frequency required for high fidelity speech is not passed to the mixer for amplification. my appoligies to technical people but i have tried to word it so all can understand..
  10. i am not certain if you could call the music a tool,i should say that the hardware in use is the tool and the music is the raw material that we mold and use to create or final product.. but then as one of our contributers often say! what do i know.
  11. hello all, I was looking through the loft the other day for a piece of computer equipment for a repair,could not find it but i did see a magazine laying on the rafters(no not that sort) it was a disco international mag dated 1981 october in fact,i could not help thumbing through the pages to see how things had changed,firstly there seems a lot more retail outlets selling equiptment to the budding dj-er and any body else who would like to part with there money. the thing is that the prices charged then for a peice of equiptment is largely on par for what you would pay these days for a co
  12. hello and welcome,,again, dont leave us again...... look foward to your contributions.
  13. hi gazz... equipment is all ways a personal choice especially when we are limited to a budget,you will all ways find a reaction from some of the contributors about this light or that microphone,but in the end its your choice and your choice alone that counts,,, wish you good hunting in the future as you build up your gigs,its nice to see young blood in the industry and at your age you are possibly well placed to weather the economical down turn we are experiencing at the moment.
  14. yes i have to agree,i sat down to watch the awards and lasted about half way through and was not impressed at all,spent the rest of the program installing a new hdd in one of my computers dont know which was the more aggravating..
  15. yes i have to agree with this contribitor,the town along with others are facing hard times with a number of our venues now facing closure,a poor inditment on the state of the economy at the moment.
  16. yes i will agree with this,, played 13 year old birthday/christmas party and played about 70% of tracks came from these 2 cd`s, went ok.....
  17. as a seaside town we have our summer time trade which boosts trade over a seasonal period,how ever we have had our fair share of pub closures to contend with, two locals to me here has put up shutters in the last few moths and looks as if they shall not re open... now reported that a large cosmopolitan near the sea front is closing, this pub had live entertainment 2 or 3 times a week/dj friday and sunday evening plus a full menu for meals, a great loss to the town. last year we had a large seafront funpub shut down which catered for the young disco trade and used to feed in trade for the nig
  18. seems to be a campaign now in the offering to save the good old british pub, i have been aware of the decline of country pubs,but town pubs seem to have bucked this trend. however we have just here had two of our town pubs close within a month or two of each other and the boards have gone up over the windows. i mentioned this because both of these pubs used to run a dj on a friday and sunday night so there is two people who have lost there working venue. it seems that as a nation we have now outgrown the idea of the pub as a social place to meet.. i dont think the young people now need the p
  19. just at the moment you take in breath to back announce a track or to advise that the buffet is open,just as you are about to utter your first word, somebody all ways lean across the booth and say"s,cuse me mate,have you got........" and then you loose all track. why do people do that.
  20. could`nt resist this one ,sorry tony, is compression drivers a good topping for your pizza`s or do you prefer anchovy........
  21. hands up you youngsters who know who pinky & perky are.............
  22. i have a dab radio but unfortunatly the reception is very poor and will only work in certain positions in the house.also when switching between digital and fm the far better quality received on the fm band is far superier. the powers that be will have to improve coverage and quality to compete with the current analoge system. also there are now many more platforms availible to listen to your radio on these days.

    Love Town

    good sound,, thanks for reminding me of it again.
  24. i agree with you, however lets examine why isp dont allow you to download the full weighted version down to you. storage capacity is not the problem but the interconection system that we use in this country is rather antiquated, the system still uses thousands of miles of copper cables and was originaly designed to convey speech only and as i stated before at frequency the efective resistance increases as the frequency increases, this means that your transmission cable has to convey ordinary telephone frequency as originaly designed and then at a highed frequency the broadband signal. so as yo
