What!!!!!! A clear explanation.!!!!!! Thank you so much.

I've been watching your videos one after another tonight and I learned *so much*. Thank you!! ❤

Love your videos!

This video was awesome. Thank you for giving out this information.

谢谢系统性的讲解，完全解答了我的问题。

I dont know if this is right or not but I use rca to 1/4 inch on channel 1 & 2 on the yamaha mg10 and adjust the compression knobs. And it raises my volume and my bass. I discovered it by accident and still use it till this day.

You have the best video s

love you!

hy there ! I'v been looking for your videos sibce the begginning of my Dj mini carierr. Very usefull infos clear and easy to undestand videos! I like what you do. About this video i need your advice as an pro tech ! I have the follouing setup that i use: Hercules inpulse 500 controller (unbalanced output 6.3 jack) a mixer ( for now the Alto Zmx 862 main mix balanced or unbalanced 6.3 jack output) and from there active woofers (only balanced in/out) and active speakers that can handle balanced/unbalanced signal. I undestud that adding an active DI BOX after the controller the signal goes ballanced into the entire system, but it will that help increasing the overall strenght of the sound? (in the same gieven conditions, same settings) Does it makes a difference in sound Quality? I undestud that if a active speaker is built to work with balanced signal is better to use balanced signal for best performance, regardless of it's capacity to also handle unbalanced. Hope my english is good enough for you to undestand what i mean. Thanks alot! Respect

Awesome! I watched this before in don’t remember if it answers this question. Mixer, to Canon m50 (3.5mm input) …probably 20’ away maybe a little more. How would I / should I connect the camera to a Mackie Profx10v3 (the xlr outputs are being used for monitors, so I was thinking we used the 1/4” stereo outs ) -this is for a live class with small PA, but we want to capture the audio into our Canon. That’s the goal! Thanks for any help

@ 5:20 - What if the DI box doesn’t have “left or right” and instead uses channels, like “channel 1, and channel 2” with only one 1/4” for each channel? Like the Behringer Ultra-DI DI20? Would I just use a RCA to single 1/4” ? I would love some advice with this. Your videos are very well made by the way !

You’re the best

So i have flex4 as my dj controller and it can't produce the amount of signal i want in the club that i am working like ddj 1000 does, can i use a di box and connect to the djm800 that the club owns so i can boost up my signal? Djm800 has line inputs so i am afraid passive di wont do the trick

My Dj controller and my mixer have only RCA outputs. I have an passive 2 in/out Passive DI BOX. What is the right way to setup my system?From the controller with sort Rca to the mixer and from the Rca output of the mixer to the DI BOX and from there with XLR's in my active speakers?

Many Thanks for this video! I was watching with big interes but my english is not good and i need to ask you something ..if i connect my controller to this mixer can i my controller only play the songs from it and the mixing itself is done on this mixer plus adding effects ? I hope the question is understood

if I can work with a mixer just next to my controller, do I still need a DI box?

I wish you could adjust at least the highs and lows on channels 3/4 and 5/6 on the Mackie unit...

So what if your speakers don't have a switch from line to mic level? I'm using Rokit 8 monitors at home and even if I put them to maximum volume and the master on my DJ controller as well, the volume is still very low. Not much I can do about it I suppose?
