You must be pretty young, also you said your mic was designed for djing? no it wasnt designed for Presenting/Broadcasting.
DJing isnt the same as Broadcasting.
Also i think your pretty young due to most people dont use Decks anymore, they prefer to use CDJ's all the worlds top DJ's use CDJ's.
Stopping and starting a song doesnt make you a DJ.

Also the first picture doesnt support the 2nd picture.
Diffrent mics, and comp screens.
That's because they're two different people...Quote:

I use an audio technica at2020 its a great mic however I dont DJ :P
Vinyl Decks = thing of the past... hate to say it tbh as i love mine, but i changed to CDJ's to change money and time.
Got a lot of stuff cheap. You can get great equipment in pawn type shops, ebay etc. Many that's as good as new. The microphone is a Rode NT1-A Condenser. Usually about £150 but a friend was selling it for £100 with the stand and other bits. The mixer is a Behringer XENYX 1002B, that was a similar price I think, had it for quite some time (got it online, can't remember where). Got a BEHRINGER COMPOSER PRO MDX2200 - Compressor, Limiter etc. (although currently not working fully so getting replaced). There's a soundcard you can't see on there with a drop box so we can have multiple connections. A M-Audio one, could have been £100 can't remember. We also got a pioneer amp quite cheap possibly £50 and the Sony speakers where only like £20. Finally Numark TT1610 turntables the pair came together for like £20 in a local shop. We intend to get a CDDJ eventually and a telephone hybrid so we can link our phone call to our mixer. Could do with a second microphone actually.Quote:

I bought our vinyl decks because they where only £20 for the pair and in good working order so it wasn't a lot of money and some of our presenters do have vinyl records. But like someone said, old people do use them it's the new ones that use CDDJs. Although a lot of people do like retro stuff.Quote:

Yeah lots use them but there are some old school people out there. I got them as they where cheap - i mean for £20 if anyone has vinyl it's an extra way to play music and makes the studio look more fullQuote:
