[devotion03]

hey guys..im just wondering here..i have a shure M44-7 and it is picking up the most sensitive sounds, like if i tap the side of my turntables..it will make a loud taping sound thru the speakers..im wondering if this is sumthing i have wrong with the set up of my decks..or if its just the needle..or the way it is setup up? can anybody help here? thanx

the whole setup is made specifically for picking up minute vibrations, so just try not to whack your decks around too much.

alternatively, turn the bass down when you're beating them... the knocks will still be there but they won't punch as badly.

I your problem is that you need me to come over to your house and teach you how to use a turntable. Once we get that down, I'll show you the basics of DJing.

This is what happens when ravers go out and drop $3000 on a DJ setup! :kam:

^ha!...but i notice alot of kids are selling off their decks now.

its seems like after the great dj rush of 99-01 everyone has given up on wanting to dj.

I see lots of deck pakages in the buy and sell now!

its a good thing though....skims away all the bandwagoners methinks. :fart:

Hey its unfair to assume devotion bought his turntables to jump on a bandwagon... maybe he doesen't know any dj's and is just wondering if what he is doing with his turntables is right and that he hasen't fucked anything up, how else is he gonna learn... remember we were all new once... i had no one show me in person to tell me how to beatmatch or scratch, i just asked a couple questions on a msg board and looked up some articles... and i taught myself... devotion maybe your volume is just turned up and the needles are picking up the minor vibrations, just throw a record on and u wont hear that tapping sound anymore cuz the music well be much louder :) :)... if u have any problems with skipping with the shures like i had(i got the same ones), make sure the weights on the tonearms are at 3grams.. i haven't had much problem with skipping since then... also a sturdy table can help prevent skipping

^whoops sorry dind not mean to come across like i was hateing....i wasent, just stating my observations is all....

[decypher]
