  1. hell yeah! first they said they would be glad to come pick up the mixer, replace the CF, and send it back. I replied with my shipping address and they wrote back saying they would just send a brand new p&g which arrived promptly in the mail no more than a week later. They were very pleasant to deal with i must say.
  2. i heard back from allen and heath. They said there was a bad batch where there were some "v-shaped indentations" on the stem and was a known weakness but was corrected by p&g. Sounds like bs to me, but who knows. I very politely asked them to send me an "alternate" crossfader with a thicker stem. Hopefully they send me a pro x . Allready got one but it went bad after only a week or two and the dude Siya at EB doesn't seem to be of any help.
  3. p&g, but i bought it earlier this month. Maybe the pro-x models haven't made it to the states yet. did yours have the Alpha? The new ones are made in china
  4. anyone had problems with snapping the crossfader on these things? it is only a couple millimeters thick and i snapped it straight off after only two weeks of use. Can't get a response from allen and heath or from djdeals.com. Anyone else had issues with either of these companies?
  5. haha nah man i meant for his video editing, not his skating skills bro. yeah post em up when you got them finished! peace
  6. http://www.digitalvertigo.co.uk/forum/inde...showtopic=19414 hell yeah, i thought it was weak too, but the editing was dope. he actually has some really cool videos up and is apparently a God in Thailand

  10. fuckin sick fp man this is some really smooth music bro
  11. sick dude! you'lll have to post up some juggling techniques, i never know where to start with routines or juggling or anything like that.
  12. lol you know whats up man just call it like you see it
  13. "trendster" or not, that dude has sick cuts and is still nerdy
  14. There was no music scene whatsoever in the area you lived in. Like if it was up to you, what would you establish as being the accepted 'pop' culture..... fashion, clothes, music, what styles would you bring?
  15. well i definitely would if i made beats myself. It would be really cool though if you posted up some techniques to use when you are just overdubbing scratches onto a beat
  16. on the other hand, get tight on your beatmatching first. It sucks when you are trying to eg/blend something and your tracks keep going out of time and having to constantly adjust
  17. elaborate, right now I put them all on 100% and leave them unless I'm scratch ahh I cut the bass allright, so the basic idea for EQ is to create space for your tracks to blend. It doesn't have to be drastic cuts or boosts, subtle adjustments make all the difference. If you have both tracks going 100% with no eq adjustments, you basically have two whole tracks worth of frequencies battling each other for rights to to the speakers. Having both tracks pumping bass can make the mix sound muddy, and having both high's going can make it sound way to "sharp" to the ear. What i usually do is listen to the incoming track in the headphones and decide how i want to eq it; then reduce whatever frequencies i want to make the track blend (this will vary each time). Then when i bring in the new track, i'll bring the bass up to have a solid presence in the mix. Once i want the new track to really 'hit' (like when the vocals start or something like that) i lastly bring up the highs to really bring the new track to the 'front' of the mix as i turn down the high's on the outgoing track while adjusting the volume as well. the idea of bring a track forward or backwards is based on the fact that when you hear things, all the little water molecules and crap that's in the air actually causes high frequencies to get filtered out the further you are away from the source, while the bass carries much easier. so for all that, just remember to create space in the mix using the eq and line faders to give everything it's own space in the mix. Also, don't think you ahve to do it the same way every time. This should help you mix out of tracks smoothly so it sounds like it was programmed. Overall man, i'd say having club level skills in two months will be hard to do. Technically speaking, you could probably pull it off but that's not really important. the really important part is just having SOLID track selection and knowing the hell out of every record you own. all the lyrics, beat changes, how many bars in each verse, chorus, intro, all of that shit. IMO mixing is one of the hardest things to develop if it doesn't come out naturally to begin with. It's like developing 'flow' in scratches. It's not something you can just sit down and learn, you gotta experiment and go through a lot failures and fuck ups before you get hot with it. I'm still working through them myself, but hopefully his helps peace
  18. it's all about the eq man.
  19. Sad but true.... and then they get popular for having that "underground" image. I'd rather hear about pimpin hoes and gang shootings than hear some white boy rap about shit like he's got it hard and how the world is bad and america is fucked blah blah blah when they aren't about doing a damn thing to help (rhymesayers)
  20. oh yeah, the panning was added after just messing around. The original file i had didn't use it, the link was updated after i got it onto a real server and not yousendit. thanks again for checking it out y'all
