300 Weddings booked for one year? Holy cow!!! He reminds me of the young guy here in my town who started a very similar operation called "DJ Connection." I can never argue with anyone who is successful. Kudos to him for starting his new multi-op DJ business. I just know I could never work for a company like that. Not saying anything is wrong with it... I just couldn't do it. I've been calling my own shots and getting paid what I'm worth for far too long.

Cool business model. As a live sound engineer I wouldn't be able to run a system without a sub or 2 or 4, lol. I just have to have full range audio at all times. I guess with most weddings people just don't know or care about the quality of sound. Still an impressive business model. He's making some money, that's for sure. Rock on brother!
@19Jose91
@19Jose91 5 лет назад
Same here, I've done weddings with only 2 tops (ZLX 15p) in the past, but once you add a sub, you never go back... I eventually DJ'd for 100 people with 2x ELX12p, but because they go loud AF, but nothing like a sub... especially late night when the bangers and electronic music comes in... nothing like feeling the punch in the chest, that gets people jumping like a good set of lights

DJ Kanonfx maybe so but it’s really dope, Erik has booked me for 40 weddings through the end of the year and I’m a full time student, and it’s not like I don’t have control over what I play. But weddings kind of naturally restrict your music catalog anyways.

@djmixnice6844 5 лет назад
Nice for quick setup. Looks like he has a growing business. With that said... With that sound equipment it is obvious customers continue to accept average sound and lighting. You would think for something as important as a wedding that the customers would demand premium sound (i.e Danley, JTR, etc...) and lighting that is more than a basic light bar. I wish his business continued success and I hope customers start demanding more.

My business is more in line with his idea. If you have to be renting a van, trailer, truck for more than 20% of your setups then you're wasting money. The rig is pretty bare bones and could do with some better lighting (freedom sticks?) but it's both capable and easily expandable. Is he using venue tables?

How long does the battery last? If you hook up the mic,the speaker , and a laptop ? If music is played for ceremony and outdoor cocktail hour( total time 3-4 hours ) do you think the battery will be able to power all devices for that amount of time ?
@dowoakevents3444
@dowoakevents3444 5 лет назад
it would last for about 1.5-2 hours, enough for a ceremony and some prelude but probably not 4 hours of music.

hey rick quick question how do u connect a entry level controller such as the ddj400 to like 4 powered speakers
@northwestaudio
@northwestaudio 5 лет назад
the number of speakers doesn't matter, you go mono from the DDJ400 to a Mixer- then the mixer to the first 2, and go out from those to 3 & 4. depending on how you set them up. as long as your running powered speakers, you can chain them any way that looks good.
@DJRickWeb
@DJRickWeb 5 лет назад
Not sure what the 400 is but normally you need a mini mixer between the controller and the speakers as USB powered controllers dont have strong enough outputs to send signal to a powered top
@roninzenmunkey5374
@roninzenmunkey5374 5 лет назад
You can run RCA-XLR’s to two DI boxes from your controller directly to speakers 1 & 2 (or direct to speakers). Daisy chain speakers 1& 2 to speakers 3 & 4 using separate XLR’s. What you sacrifice is a little bit of signal to speakers 1 & 2 though (less clean sound). Mixtrack Pro I is basically setup the same way as ddj400 and that’s how I got around the input issue before I bought a mixer. Running through a separate mixer is always more ideal though. You can control the sound better that way.

Not my style for what a Dj business should look like at the wedding, but I hope one day I can have such a big and automated business. Of course I will need vans and trailers, but the Idea is the one that I'm seeking.
@stevemcc1842
@stevemcc1842 5 лет назад
@69 Sound, This works, because no matter which DJ you send out to the event he can show the client a picture of what the setup will look like. Most other multi ops the person sending out the DJs have no idea what each DJ has or use and that goes for music to. The only thing I would worry about is a person new to DJ, blows a speaker, because people keep telling them to turn it up.

Those 12.2s will get as loud as you could ever want them without hitting their limit. I Dj’d a 700 person Easter egg hunt the other day at Summerfield Farms and you could hear it across multiple acres and it wasn’t even close to max

Okay, let me explain myself... In the area where I live, work and perform the weddings need a subwoofer yes or yes, a couple of k12's will never be enough for a wedding in México. I said that the way he made it work is great, but I would need to step it up quite a bit because we do a lot of producction here (scenariums, dance floors, gigant screens, tv screens, disco balls, tons of uplight, some moving fixtures, cold sparkles, etc) so this is way too little, at least for me. I am not saying the equipment or setup he uses ain't powerfull, it is great! But here in Mexico things work a bit different (for a 250 people wedding I would use 2 qsc kw181, 2 qsc kw 152/153 and a pair of side fills with some zlx10p or alto ts310 or something like that...and I would put about 20 uplights, 4 beams 2r, a pair of 55" tv screens or a couple of 130" proyector screens, a jd booth/table 7/8ft long by 4 ft tall, a 12 ft wide scenarium...) that is what I do here and it is the kind of things you will see at premium outdoor weddings. That is why I made that comment before
@stevemcc1842
@stevemcc1842 5 лет назад
@@69sound81,that works and that's great you can get that kind of money and in Mexico weddings are a celebration and on the east coast. In my market that setup works, because weddings are something people do between their dinner and movie.
@69sound81
@69sound81 5 лет назад
@@stevemcc1842 yeah, here the wedding is quite a big thing. Every single premium wedding is either in a very luxurious hotel, in the beach or outdoors in a very nice place full of antique buildings, grass and trees. It is not that well payed because of the difference in economy (I have to pay a lot more for the eqquipment and make less money than you guys in the US) but luckily it is changing and every year we can charge more and live better with this business. I would love to take this concept to Miami or NYC. I feel like people in those areas are more likely to pay for the productions I make and wont feel like wasting their money on a very nice setup for their big day.

DJ Rick Web And I'm not bashing, just speaking from my experience with other dj companies. The pricing in the dj industry is just like pricing in the housing industry. Cookie cutter home neighborhoods are low priced/low overhead business model for developers. Then you have expensive custom homes. There is a market for both and there is a need in affordable housing as well as affordable dj services. The big deal is about offering a professional service no matter what price-point you're working in. Being polished and professional is the best thing.

For multi-ops like this, it's best to find young broke individuals that you can train to do things your way. Someone who wouldn't mind doing an entire wedding and getting paid around $150 - $200. You provide them with all the gear plus the gigs. For many young broke people, that is a dream come true.
