...I won't name the venue, but I'm not kidding this is the sound system at a wedding I've just done:

a proper DJ still plays vynal records not the crappy sound todays stuff makes.:)

Vinyl would still sound terrible if the DJ just puts a microphone against a little speaker and re-amplifies it! :cool:
The wedding was in Yorkshire ('nuff said) a couple of weeks ago, and I had a headphone to phono adapter that would have been miles better than using a microphone, but the carpark was a swamp so I thought "sod it - someone else's problem". In my opinion, people prefer quantity to quality, these days - which is why iPods are even more popular than personal CDs. A DJ will get more referrals based on the size of his hard drive! 400GB of free laptop space will hold 80,000 tracks - a vinyl DJ would simply be unable to carry that variety around with him. |

Anything would surely be better than that little CD player!!!:eek:

Re: To anyone planning a wedding reception or other party event...
Thats shocking!!
Thought our D.J was bad but at least he had proper equipment! Would prefer vinyl any day of the week,you can't beat the sound from and old record,brilliant! |
Re: To anyone planning a wedding reception or other party event...
Especially if you have a D.J. that gives you a little punch line whilst putting on a tune ... like "This was top of the pops on the day I got sacked from the Pit" :D Sorry Cashy ... was funny ... :D

Re: To anyone planning a wedding reception or other party event...
Most DJ's are digital now, theres very few I know that still work off Vinyl & CD's. Guess if its a venues own equipment then its optional and you could probably hire you're own DJ but still doesnt look very good to me

It's been twisted from microphone in front of speaker, which is what I thought was funny, to vinyl vs digital, which is nothing to do with my post. Having said that, I have to defer to everyone else's opinion: I'm too young (just) to remember vinyl. By the time I was earning enough money to build my own collection, CDs were here in force. These people are the DJs I recommend when asked. Their page suggests they use vinyl, but they don't - it's all computerised. |
