- This 200+ wedding was a BLAST! Not only did I have an entire stage to spread out on, but I was able to use the EV EVERSE-8 for the first time for cocktail hour. This amazingly compact 8" battery-powered speaker packs a serious punch and is a top contender in the battery-powered speaker arena. A full review is coming, but for now, come get a first look at Electro-Voice's BRAND NEW speaker created with mobile DJs in mind! Speaker drops today!

Fantastic job!! Absolutely rocked the wedding. Also love that you gave Nick credit for the word play mixing. 👏👏👏
Great video and great job on rocking this wedding. Love the light shows on the dance floor
Rachel i am always amazed at how you smash these events. All your planning and the tech you use to bring added value to what you do. As they say "Not all hero's wear capes".
Love how everyone's uses my name 😆 🤣 I am the only SupaRockinDjSmash!!
Speechless. Wow, all I can say is wow. Music, technology, setup, lighting, MC skills, photo booth and everything else on point. You are setting up the bar really high young lady, but that is a good thing. You are an inspiration. Congratulations from Laredo Texas.
Awesome one DJ Rachel as always rocking the house. Looks and sounds amazing 👍
I'm amazed at the professionalism, use of technology and innovation I see in this vid. In fact I'm speechless! Well done, par excellence, words cannot find me.
Thanks so much for your kindness and time to check this out. I appreciate it a lot!
Rachel!!!! your just straight Up Dope with It! I love your eye for detail and Presentation.
Thank you so much for checking this out! I really appreciate your kindness! Definitely always try and give 110% every time!
Excellent!!! Came here to find out about the EV Everse 8 and really enjoyed watching the whole video. Great Job!
Full review is coming soon! I wanted to get some real world use work it first. Got to use it last Saturday for the first time at this wedding. It’s a phenomenal little speaker.
You crushed it. Best I’ve seen in a long time greets work!!!
❤️🙏🏻 This was a fun one. Haven’t had this large of a wedding in a while. It’s amazing when people come to party hard. 🥳
Greetings! I was looking for reviews on the Everse-8 and came across your video. Your presentation is amazing. I'm looking to upgrade my gear and you are a huge inspiration. Keep up the great work.
Thank you so much. I really appreciate you stopping by the channel!
I actually just posted a review yesterday! If you’re still looking for information, check it out. Hope it’s helpful. 🙂

Hi Rachel, that Electro-Voice EVERSE-8 looks nice. I've been using the Bose S1 Pro battery powered speaker and it works great! I have to do that "Table Dash" this weekend for the first time, hope it goes well. Only difference is I have to dismiss each table one at a time to the dance floor to take the picture with the bride and groom. Sounds fun :) Love your videos, you do an AWSOME JOB!
Hell of a gig log Rachel! Great job!
Awesome gig! Dance floor was always packed! 🥳
Super fun group! Definitely came to party!
Always on point !! Party rocker !! Bravo DJRachel
❤🙏🏻
Just pulled the trigger on ordering the everse8 from Sweetwater. I have been a long time EV fan with my grandfather building sound reinforcement speakers in the 1960’s using EV drivers that were still thumping at parties in the 1990s. Bulletproof! Was making do with JBL eon one compact for ceremonies over the past few years but never really comfortable with it, mic input levels always needed to be cranked to get adequate volume and strange led light rings around the controls hard to see outside, etc. looking forward to enjoying ceremonies again rather than being nervous about the PA speaker. The 12v outlet to power mic receivers sealed it for me :) nice work capturing all the details of the gig and rocking the dancefloor!
Great set up and equipment set up. Love the EV’s. awesome music too, thanks for sharing.
Really outstanding in every aspect, Rachel. Your technical excellence in your DJing is every bit as evident in how you explain just enough to get key points across for newbie DJs, but also tips for DJs with experience who still want to up their game. Your enthusiasm for your craft is inspiring and your editing and use of text and verbal explanations helps viewers understand why and how you are doing what you do. While I never will be a on-the-road DJ, (I just do a little Grandpa Jam DJing for friends & as a donation to non-profits) I've also found the Everse 8s to be great speakers. They have served (with one EV sub) as speakers for a dance for 200 and will do the same for an upcoming smaller wedding. Not as much punch as your other speakers but plenty of volume. Keep the vids coming. Outstanding.
Thank you so much for your time to check this out and leaving such a kind comment. I appreciate your support and seeing that I really love what I do.
Glad to have you on the channel! See ya on the next gig log! ✌🏻
Love how you interact with the crowd!
MC work is definitely my weakest skill as a DJ, but I try and have fun. I appreciate you saying that. I've been trying to be better at tastefully using the mic through the night.
@@DJRachelLynch I feel the same way.. Def my weakest skill, but i will be adding some of these ideas to my events. Here are a few that stood out to me. Calling up the wedding party to lead everyone in a dance. Calling up the entire wedding for a dance floor picture, then immediately opening the dance floor.. Brilliant.
Very impressed with your evolution in this business well done.
This means a lot. ❤️ Working hard. 💪🏻
The wordplay mixes made me happy. You especially killed it with let’s get it started into everybody Backstreet Boys. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I heard it on a TikTok from @Nickspinelli. I loved it. Very fun! The VDJ auto loop tigger makes it super easy to do!
Incredible content and editing. I was just searching for a review and found this awesome Gig Vlogg. I'm a subscriber for sure!!!
Wow! Thanks so much for your time to check this out! Appreciate your comment about the editing a lot! Most don’t realize how much work goes into that. Welcome to the channel. Happy to have ya here. 🙂
Be sure to check out my review on the EVERSE -8 if you haven’t come across it yet. It’s a PHENOMENAL speaker. Most questions should be answered, but if you have any just reach out. I always get back to people.

Wow nice your audio equipmnts love it Ev..
This looked like so much fun!
It was a BLAST! Everyone came to party. I had an amazing time! Great couple with great family and friends.
Thank you for the lessons !
Another great video put out by my favourite female mobile dj. I will now most likely be buying the new Everse speaker. After just spending $9000 on a pair of evolve 30m a pair of ELX 200-18p and a pair of ELX 200-12p.
Great Job Rachel !
this is a great gig log. much respect and your a fellow EV use as well.... salute🍕👍
🍕❤️ Appreciate your time to check this out.
Good job as always DJ Rachel. You have a passion and a real talent for what you do.
Killin' it! That's what I'm talking about!
Amazing set up... love your energy.. keeping up video edit also perfectly 🔥🔥❤️💪💪
Thanks a ton! Appreciate your kindness and time to check this gig log out. ✌🏻❤️
Your playlists and mixes are awesome. Wish you would post some crates!!
Amazing much props to you my lady

Thanks for stopping by the channel and checking this out. Appreciate you being here. Enjoy the rest of your week! ☺️
clean and nice setup :)
Buen trabajo, felicidades. Saludos desde Zinacantepec, México.
❤️🙏🏻
The moving heads look great!
Thank you! I don't have the bandwidth to get involved with DMX or complicated lighting. These allow me to to put them anywhere and sync them via wireless DMX and use their internal programs. It’s a set it and forget it fixture for me. Having battery powered movers has been so clutch! ❤️💯 Appreciate you checking this out.
Your uplifting is awesome.
Thank you! It’s all Apelabs up lighting. 🙂
Super vlog..well done ...
I appreciate your time to check it out. 🙂
That everse look nice. But I have Bose s1 pro that works fine for me for the ceremony. Great detailed video. ❤
Thanks for your time to check this out! I appreciate you stopping by!
You know your crowd💪🏽
Pearl River Elks. Done many gigs there. Nice.
I watched Joe Bunn's video this morning and damn, this thing looks bad ass!!!!!!!
It’s an AMAZING speaker.
@@DJRachelLynch I'm going to have to get one now!
@@DJRachelLynch What are your thoughts on the DB bump? That much louder than the Bose S1 Pro?
@@kirbykracklemusic This speaker is significantly louder. 121DB versus 109DB and a 8" sub versus a 6" sub. This is a louder and higher performing speaker. :)
Looking forward to the video, Rachel! I've been waiting for a new battery powered option, one that's a bit more 'pro' than what's come out before. This just might be it. Looks like Sweetwater is taking preorders. Do I need more speakers? No. Do I need this? I think I do....LOL.
Oh, wow. Just ran the demo on the EV Quicksmart app. Confirmed. I need to get these. Really, really looking forward to your video take on it now, LOL. I recently bought 2 JBL EON One MK2 columns, will be interesting to see how close these compare to the EVERSE-8.
You NEED this! 👀
It is dropping today! :) Stay tuned!
I'm Loving you light show
Thank you! It’s a really great no fuss solution! Apelabs and JAMZ are fantastic.
i can’t wait for the review side by side against the Yorkville exm mobile 8 , since it has a 3 way speaker...btw great video 💪🤙👍
Reivew is coming today! I don't have any experience so the only side by side I can comment on is with the spec numbers.
studio.czcams.com/users/videoJsYNe4xd0to/edit
Hey Rachel! Great and thorough video! I love your detailed tech breakouts. Ive been in the game for roughly 16 years and just picked up 2 Mackie Thump Go 8″ Portable Battery-Powered Loudspeakers. These EVs would be equivalent and look fantastic but i would be absolutely curious to see the side by side comparison on them vs the EVs as Im not necessarily married to wither brand. If anyone has experience with both - would love to get feedback!
I can only personally comment on how it compares to the JBL Eon Compact (just sold mine) and the Bose S1. It blows both of those out of the water. 💯👌🏻
Good job
Appreciate it! ❤️🙏🏻
BIG BIG BIG respect for you, your mixing prowess, your organizational skills, your professionalism. I'm your fellow DJ and my main question is: how long is setup and breakdown for you?
Ceremony. Cocktail. Reception. Lighting. Photo Booth. Sound check etc….
About 1.5 hours.
Awesome Set ....!!! Can you post the playlist
wonderful
❤️🙏🏻
I'm always learning something new every time I watch one of your videos & I been a DJ since I was 12 and I'm still a DJ to this day. But I never knew that There was much more to preparing for an event than just bringing my equipment. I'm an Old School DJ with the New School Style "just keeping up with the times" I'm a one man show, consider a legend in Hartford by many people on & off the radio, but I'm just a nice humble guy that loves to entertain people with my music. So, what I'm trying to say is that I am inspired & impressed by you. I also work alone when I Dj & travel town to town here in CT. Thank you, DJ Rachel, for everything you done that helps me be a better DJ. Truly yours DJ Professor of Sounds. Facebook Rivera Jr, Hector.
Always appreciate you being here and stopping by the channel Hector. From one CT DJ to another I respect your hustle and kindness.
Truthfully, private event DJs are so much more than just DJs. I’m expected to be a lighting designer, event host, day of event coordinator, DJ, Photo Boother, tech solutionist,support for the videography team or musicians, marketer, promoter, etc. There are so many layers and moving parts to this job. I appreciate you recognizing that. We work hard to make cool things happen for cool people.
Enjoy your Halloween!
@@DJRachelLynch Thank you & God Bless😊
Amazing video and great job! Also, what record pool do you use for the mashup songs?
I use STEMS a lot in VDJ but my top pool are XMIX remix, XTENDAMIX, and promo only.
Thanks for watching!
The amount of gear you setup is amazing. I'm currently using the Bose S1 Pro for cocktail and ceremony when it's in a different area. I'm definitely curious about your lighting setup. The movers look great on the ceiling. The illuminated stands make your stage pop. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much! This setup has been years in the making but I have finally found stuff that allows me to do great stuff with little to no fuss. As a one woman show, ease of use is extremely important to me.
The JMAZ movers have been amazing!
Buen día señorita saludos desde Colombia quería preguntarte cuántos parlantes usaste de everse 8 en esa fiesta de 200 personas por q se oye muy bien gracias por su respuesta
Nice!
Thanks!
Love your videos. Detailed, clean set up and you always kill it 👏🏻
Means a lot! Thanks for your time to check this out. ❤️🤘🏻
ty
Nice vlog of the gig. Which DJ music service do you like to get your tracks from most often?
Xmix Remix or Promo Only.
Nice set up. Im in the Philippines 🇵🇭 my business is like that.
Exelent dance Everybody ❤️ 👍
I came here for ideas, and subscribed over the Pizza Earrings!!!!! lol
You’re the only person to notice!! 🥹❤️
(Fist bump)
You made my entire week with this comment. 😂😭❤️
Awesome to see how you work the dancefloor, great job!
Did you play 'Cha Cha Slide'? - Might be wort mentioning i made a remix of it to be a little more "clubby", not to promote it or so but could maybe be interesting for you :)
I only played SHOUT and the Wobble by request. I’m always open to new versions! Feel free to share. Appreciate the info. 🙌🏻❤️
I am a new subscriber, so I am going back to watching all of your videos right now. I apologize advance for all of the questions I ask on these older videos haha. This place looked so huge so I was very surprised when I saw that you only used to evolve 50s did you feel like the space lacked sound? Particularly on the low end? I know you use the M 30 in the other room, but I’m still curious how you felt about the sound overall
Welcome to the channel. Happy to answer any questions.
They rocked. They are a great speaker. When choosing a speaker I consider the following…
The number of people in attendance is only one consideration.
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.
Point is…
Always do a site walkthrough.
Always understand what is being asked of you.
Always know the performance limits of your gear.
Always bring the right tool for the job and you’ll never have a problem. 👍🏻
These are perfect for my average weddings. I wouldn’t bring these to a prom.
Hey Rachel there thanks a lot for the video! The Everse looks like it did the trick! I'm considering getting one for mobile/off grid performances. Was that the only speaker you were using while everyone was dancing? Did you need to pair it with a sub? I'm blown away that it could fill the whole space.
The EVERSE was only used for cocktail hour. In the beginning of the video you see me roll in my Evolve 50s. 😉 I was not DJing the main dance party with the EVERSE. Definitely not enough being it’s only a 8” top. But it is a tremendous speaker!
venues that leave the lights on at party time... FML!!!
It was both the venue and videography that had lights on. 😬😒
I really like how you have your moving head lights, how do you have them set up? What do you use to control them and keep them changing through the gobos like that?
They have wireless DMX and can easily be controlled with a remote. They have built in programs. Through the night I just tap different programs to changed things up. I don’t know how to DMX and don’t have the bandwidth for complicated lighting. These were a great solution for me. 🙂
Rachel great video. What lights and lighting software are you using ?
All the lights have built in programs. All lights are controlled with their perspective, remote. Very simple. One button operation.
Thanks for checking this out.
You are a rockstar!!! Curious how you are running your apelabs and with what program? Your movers are running separately? Looks great!
I simply use the built in MusikMode and the remote. That’s why Apelabs are amazing. They look great with little to no effort. Their MuikMode gives a DMX like look with no DMX. 🙂 I keep it simple.
My movers are the JMAZ Aero Spot 60 movers. They have are battery powered and have wireless DMX and built in programs that can be controlled with a remote.
Great job and beautiful setup. How did the 50s hold up with the large crowd?
They rocked it. Keeps sound on the dance floor and people can socialize around the room. If you watch the video where the party starts you’ll see they had no problem partying. 😉🥳💪🏻
Thanks for tuning in! Appreciate it! ☺️
Love the color you are using!!
The up lights? Those are “candle light.” I use that color most weddings. 🙂
I just did a photobooth gig there!!!
That was one speaker?! Excited if yes. On the fence. Bass felt good? Seems like yes. everyone was into it.
At 32 seconds I show the speakers I used for the reception. This was 2 EVOLVE 50s.
My photo dash this weekend started right at dinner time, we started at the family tables and moved around the room. What people didn't see as the couple went from table to table is we also had the coordinator dismiss them for the buffet line right after their picture was taken so when we got through with the dash many of the tables had been dismissed. That accomplished two things. It kept people pre-occupied and engaged but it also speeded up the dinner process. Most people didn't even realize it.
Hey Dj Rachael great job! How are you controlling your moving heads?
They beauty the of JMAZ Aero Spot 60 is they are battery powered and have a RF remote with 9 built in programs as well as sound active mode.
Wow I didn't know vdj had so many effects!
It’s the most versatile and mappable programs out there. 👍🏻
Now i can sell my Mackie Thump Go hehe !
Sell it. 💯💯💯😂
Damn. I need this speaker and I haven’t even seen it yet.
This is just a sneak peek. I have a full review coming in a week or so. I’ve been sick so it delayed things a bit.
All I can tell you is this thing is amazing. They have thought of everything! Stay tuned. 🙂
@@DJRachelLynch honestly. I’m excited. Been using the jbl for ceremonies and, while it’s great for the parametric eq and dialing in some hard acoustic spaces, it’s very underpowered. And the batteries are starting to lose some charge. Would rather have an easier option.
My main system is the ekx 12s and 2 18s. I’ll never change it. Sounds amazing.
@@rjpimprov Just sold JBL Eon Compact for this. I wanted to love the JBL, but I didn’t. IMO the EVERSE blows it out of the water.
@@DJRachelLynch not surprising. Cant wait. Hope it’s priced at $600 max maybe.
Hi, I loved you speakers tripods, can you tell me which model is? Thanks
Here ya go!
czcams.com/video/JId80LcradA/video.html
Hi! Have you checked how long it takes to fully charge an empty Everse 8 battery? Accurate to the hour and minutes. I want to compare this with my results. And while charging the speaker, which is turned off by the on/off toggle switch, sometimes the LCD display flashes, not always, but this happens. I don't understand if this should be the case or if it's abnormal.
Hi DjRachel, so you used a single unit of everse8 for cocktail hour and then the rest of time it is the powered PA system, is that right?
Correct. EVERSE 8 for cocktail and Evolve 50s for the reception. 🙂
Have you use it for ceremony use yet? Have you run a lapel mic through it? Curious how it does. Looking to buy this or the s1 just for ceremonies where i can’t use my k12’s due to power locations. Bought the mackie go and while it sounds ok with music, it’s garbage running a mic through it. Just doesn't have enough volume to push a mic through it. Price isn’t an issue but quality and something loud and clean for the officiants mic and processional music.
It’s great! And the feedback suppression works amazing. This is a better speaker than the S1.
Rachell, Curious where you got the power cable to go from the Everse 8 to power your wireless mic?
It comes with the Tray for EVERSE 8. It includes a 12V DC cable. I got mine from NLFX.
Just curious regarding the 50Ms you use…I assume you’re using the soft cases? How do you find the tops are holding up visually (especially if you have black ones)? I’d imagine white might get some marks but curious overall as you gig a lot like myself.
I use the rolling sub cases and the soft top bags. My gear is pristine. I’ve had great luck with the bags. They have held up great. My speakers are about 3 years old now.
@@DJRachelLynch very cool! I’ve had mine come loose somehow in the tops bag. But I find that the black especially has such a great textured finish you’d almost never notice anything unless you physically look
Do you know what kind of cord is needed to plug a wireless mic into the back?
Never seen that kind of round plug before.
It's just a standard DC post-positive connection here. Nothing proprietary.
Was this what you wanted me to wait for a few weeks ago for? I saw it today
👌🏻💯
Nice what light fixtures are you using
They are all ApeLabs lighting.
Which booth was that , that you set your laptop on? Very cool.
czcams.com/video/AmlrncP_tbk/video.html
Also. Damn. You are a true professional.
@@LoVeAmBiEnT ❤️🙏🏻
Maybe I missed it, is that only sound from that one speaker? How are your levels looking? Any clipping or anything? It sounds loud!!!
At what part of the video are you referencing? If it’s during the dancing portion, I was not using the EVERSE. Those are EV 50s.
Rachel, did you only use 1 EV Everse speaker for this whole event? Did you use any bass speakers?
No. The EVERSE 8 was only for cocktail hour. You can see all the gear I use around 1 min in the video.
What tripod stand did you use for the electro voice Everse 8 did you use?
Gator Frameworks ID series stand with lift assist. It’s a fantastic stand!
Wow! How is the carry bag for it?
I don’t know. I don’t own one yet. 😂
Yo! I'm using the Mackie Go! How's it compare? Does it have Mix out if you use Bluetooth? Mackie does not pass audio through via Bluetooth...
Respectfully, Mackie isn’t even in the same arena as this. This is reflected in the price point as well. It does have a mix out but you can use this with True Stereo Pairing. Meaning you can Bluetooth to two tops. 👍🏻
@@DJRachelLynch I agree 110% as I'm a Bosh/EV fan. If u connect music via Bluetooth, can u hard link an XLR to mix out, and will the audio signal from Bluetooth be sent through the mix out?
@@djnikko You can do it through mix out with cable but Everse is their first speaker That will do true wireless stereo. That means if streaming stereo in Bluetooth to one speaker you can wirelessly pair the two speakers together for a left right solution. This only works on the streaming channel though.
What settings on your evolve 50's do you like the best on your DSP thank you
Settings:
Everything is zero’d out.
Club setting.
+2 DB
12 O’Clock on channel
@@DJRachelLynch thank you
I got a ev elx200 sub hooked up to the evolves now and wow!!! I don't play out anymore but I wished I had this micro system back in the day of lugging around 18 inch subs and amps lol
As far as speakers what was your complete set up? 2 EVs that’s all?
Yes. Main system was 2 Evolve 50s. ☺️
