    Do you have to have an aditional szenhesiser for connecting two EV8s? Can't they communicate between each other and act as a stereo setup via bluetooth or at least via cable for example? This would be a huge deal breaker for me if this isn't included.

    • @DJRachelLynch
      @DJRachelLynch Před 6 dny

      The number of people in attendance is only one consideration when selecting a speaker. It depends on the TYPE OF EVENT you’re doing. It depends on HOW DENSELY PACKED the people are going to be. It depends on your SOUND OBJECTIVE (how you want to fill the space). It depends on HOW LARGE the room/dance floor is. It depends on HOW LOUD you need to be at the farthest point in the room. It depends on the UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS of the venue/room. It depends on your CLIENT’S EXPECTATIONS (think student prom vs corporate picnic; do they want or need to to be crushed by sound?) It depends on INDOOR/OUTDOOR considerations (sound moves differently with and without walls). It depends on your knowledge of PROPER GAIN STRUCTURE and knowledge of BUILT IN FEATURES of your speakers. It depends on what your speakers are realistically DESIGNED FOR/CAPABLE OF. Maybe some other things I’m forgetting too.

    Hello, great video! Off topic question. I use VDJ and Dropbox. Until recently, I have stored my music in the music folder on my Mac. I would build crates inside the music folder on the Mac and then they would show up on VDJ, because VDJ searches for music / folders in the Mac “music” folder. I would THEN copy my Mac “music” folder and drop it into Dropbox as a backup. I feel like if I could direct VDJ to search IN Dropbox for my music, then I wouldn’t have to copy/paste my music folder from my HD to Dropbox, thus less steps. Can this be done? Also, do you build your crates in your music folder or within VDJ. I feel like everytime I create new crates, I’m duplicating tracks due to copy/paste from there original location to the crate of the day for that event. Please explain your process for backing up and crate making.

    • @DJRachelLynch
      @DJRachelLynch Před 25 dny

      1. Check out “CLOUDDRIVE” within VDJ. CloudDrive provides the ability to store files and folders with an online storage provider that can easily be accessed inside of VirtualDJ regardless of what computer is used. Using Google Drive, OneDrive, DropBox or iCloud, you can easily create emergency folders or even backup your entire music folder to the cloud that can be later accessed from any computer running VirtualDJ. Lean more here: www.virtualdj.com/manuals/virtualdj/interface/database/onlinemusic/clouddrive.html 2. I build my “crates” using the file management system in VDJ.

    As always, great vid Rachel! As a newer DJ, this never occurred to me. Do you charge more for outdoor weddings? Especially considering all that you mentioned here with the elements etc. I don't know how much more to charge. Any pointers?

      Hey! Thanks for checking out the video. In general, my prices reflect the time, travel, talent, and resources required to do what's asked of me as professionally as possible. That said, outdoor events are significantly more complex and require more work due to all the factors mentioned, so my prices reflect that as well.

    Then... starting price 1700, now 2200. Ouch

      It’s right in line with other premium brands like Humpter, Bunn Booth, Hoer, Toadmaric, etc.

    What about power to the gear, when you are outdoor? Is it in your "writer" that they have to ensure that it is there, and there is power enough? Or do you yourself have a 1 km power-wire :-)

    • @DJRachelLynch
      @DJRachelLynch Před měsícem

      I do require them to supply power, even if it’s with a generator, but I have a battery backup option in the event we lose power. czcams.com/video/-Qod_vQE-gY/video.htmlsi=XWEizrrGqNfD3PFs

    thank you for sharing. I just did an outdoor wedding on Saturday. it was a perfect day. sunny 72 degrees and little wind. You are so right about people thinking outdoor dj'ing is easy... WRONG. much tougher to hit the cues. make the singers, speakers and bride and groom to sound good. I use Bose speakers and they are awesome. question other than uplighting what other dj lights did you use? I had up lights but because of ground level I didn't set up a light bar. Thoughts?

    • @DJRachelLynch
      @DJRachelLynch Před měsícem

      Appreciate you watching! ☺️ Anything outdoors is so much more work and so much harder on our gear. I definitely charge more for outdoor events. I usually just use my up lights or I’ll add a WASH FX to give more punch. Lots of bang for your buck with those. I highly recommend them.
