Welcome to SOBER DJ! Here I am focused on having fun with my sobriety and helping others while at the same time, holding myself accountable. Sure I started this for me but I also want to put on good content as well as track my progress and allow others to comment and follow me on my journey and also create a safe place for others to ask questions and maybe even collaborate with other Sobriety Vloggers!
You don't have to be a DJ or at the same time even have to be sober. My goal is to show that we can have fun without alcohol. But it is ok if you choose to drink if you are managing your life just fine in the process...
I want to share with you what works for me and also get recommendations from others on what works for them.
-About- I am just a guy who has realized I can no longer drink but I still want to have fun in life. I feel it is possible to Have a blast, and you don't have to be one of these people who has to change you life 100% and live a boring, meeting everyday life!

Gig Log with some Fun Twists
Here’s a gig log of an event I did the other day that had some unique and different things put into either introductions or throughout the day. This was at a beautiful place called Excelsior Springs in Saratoga, and my goal was really uplight the room.

I explain in this video why I believe every DJ should have the Pioneer rev one as a back up and as a tool for a small event. It’s got many benefits for small events but most importantly, for me emergency back up if the club equipment or even my Quitman at a small club, where I gotta bring it to fails for whatever reason maybe a deck goes down. Maybe my mixer goes down but either way it’s always...

This is a gig log that we did at Juniper Springs outside of Saratoga, New York. This is an absolutely gorgeous venue and this couple had so many fun things to do that kept us going all night. The planning was excellent. The couple was amazing to work with and if you get anything from this video, I hope you pick up some new tricks or some new ideas that you could do at your next wedding as a DJ ...

How to use DNP WCM2 for Photo Booth Wireless Prints
มุมมอง 3.3Kปีที่แล้ว
This is a video describing how to use the DNP WCM2. This print dongle works with DNP printers and I believe others as well but it’s very easy to use but when I first got it, it was a little complicated so I made a little video show you guys how to go ahead and run through your settings really fast.
Relapse Prevention (relapse doesn’t have to happen)
มุมมอง 78ปีที่แล้ว
People always say relapse is part of recovery, but I don’t think that’s necessarily true. I’ve never believe that and today in group the person running the group sense of the very profound he’s the first person I’ve ever heard to say it and agree with me and he said you’re right it doesn’t have to be part of recovery, but relapse prevention does need to be part of your recovery, here’s my thoug...

I can’t connect the rev 1 to Rekordbox any tips on how to do that?
Bless you .to come out of the addiction and know now what you was like before must be hard but the important thing is that now you recognise that
❤😊thank you.
A not common, but horrible problem with the wcm2 is... if in a room with multiple wifi connections, it connects to one of those and then my iPad could not connect. Must restart and connect in immediately when the DNP wifi pops up. Why not have an iOS hard wire connection jic? And a built in wifi is an industry standard. 🤔
Alcohol is insidious. Best of luck moving forward.
42 year old, heavy drinker. Just spent 4 days in the hospital with my first attack. Day 8 sober. I feel slightly pathetic when I say the scariest part of the whole experience is being told I’ll never drink again. Drinking has been such a huge part of my life I feel empty without it. Makes me sound like such a loser when I say it out loud but it’s true. Reading these comments, its nice to know I’m not alone.
AA Is really helpful. It's having a community of like-minded people that's the part that helps
Hey, just come out of hospital for Pancreatitis. I'm not a heavy drinker. Maybe twice a month and I don't have gallstones. Honestly I'm confused as to why I got it. I actually Herniated my disk and called the ambulance and they took me to A&E and found I had pancreatitis. I had more pain in my lower back than stomach. I was NIL by mouth for 4 days. And on pain killers since, more for my back which has been left untreated. Don't know what to do. Been told I can never drink again, and I hardly drink. That's fine, though still doesn't make sense of what caused it. The dr said, just as someone can have an allergy to peanuts all of a sudden, the same is true that one can be allergic to alcohol.
Its got everything i want but in the wrong place😭
I love mine Rev 1😊
the tow company is required to call the patrol
My husband is still in the hospital. Improving alot. But this was horrible horrible. OMG don't confuse abdomin pain just as stomach pain
People seem to forget you can just plug those rcas into a little mackie mixer and boom…you’ve got XLR to the mains and maybe a booth output now. 🤌🏼
I’ve been experiencing side pain that’s getting severe at this point for the past 2 months this has been going on. Drinking isn’t helping with the pain anymore, same thing. I’m just having such a hard time stopping. I went to the hospital about a month ago and they did blood tests and a CT scan and said “I’m fine” I have no idea what’s going on but I’m sure it’s acute pancreatitis… same thing I thought it was an uncler but now that im doing more research I’m 99 percent sure it’s this. trying my best to stop drinking, hope I can make it happen this time !
❤❤❤❤
Ive had enough "relapses". They were all excuses and just wanting to drink. It was never ever worth it. It always led to more drinking than I anticipated, and by the time I was ready to try again, I had to work up the courage to come back to the rooms, motivate myself to get back to the gym, fix my broken relationships, get another job, clean my living area and car, start seeing my son again. It took away everything worthwhile and was always such a struggle to get it back
I just got back into meetings. 10 days. Putting it FIRST above anything else this time, like I used to when I had some good time put together. Ty for the video. Good luck on your journey!
Can I record my set?
you can with Serato Pro.
Had it a few weeks ago first time. Alcohol induced. The fact that people are reporting repeat episodes freaks me out. I'm doing everything I can to be healthy right now. This organ is such a sensitive snowflake. lol. Oh well, it's life I guess. Live healthy to fix it.
Will I do jail time for my 2nd DWI in Tx?? Please answer back....
I just got done with my 2nd. Got a deal to plead guilty for time served. Aside from DL suspension, nothing happened. It just went on my record. No probation, no community service, no nothing lol.
@HIRAMECLARKEHOPS thanks for your response. I needed that.
@@HIRAMECLARKEHOPSdo you serve jail time for second owi
@@alexisacosta98depends on your circumstances and location but likely you will not serve any jail time. You will most likely be put on probation.
They wouldn’t give me any real pain meds for my Acute Pancreatitis cause I’m an alcoholic/addict. I don’t even go to the hospital anymore. Sometimes I feel like I’m gonna die. I’d advise to not even tell them you drink if you want to be sure you will get pain management.
Am i wrong they can remove pancreas and if early enough whipple procedure
How is your pancreas health? Hope all is well. God bless ya!
I believe it. Just got mines for the same reason. Something I can take for a small easy job.
I had my first acute attack in 2021 after a 3 day bender. The pain was extreme. Hospitalized for 2 days. Then slowly introduced alcohol back in and continued drinking for the next 2 days. I quit drinking for 60 days then drank (heavy of course) ONE night and had another pancreatic attack. This was finally a wake up call that I HAVE to quit. The alternative is a completely miserable existence. Sending love to all of you dealing with alcoholism.
What was time lag between the episodes you had , was it like few days or few weeks or few months ?
How many hours at full blast can you run these before the battery going out? Also, are 12 watt leds good enough for most DJ events, even in a larger room? Have you done other gigs with them and tried them in other ways? Also, can you have two different sets of these lights with different slave modes...one set on UV while your wall are set to red? Thanks
i can’t connect the controller it only works with my laptop, any ideas in why is this happening?
Does serato lite have stems?
this over the flex 4
Can the pitch range be changed to +16? If not then i don’t want it cause that was a nuisance for me. Gotta have that extra pitch range to do more wide mixing. Cheers 👍🏼
Yes it can go up with the tempo range button
@@SoberDJ thanks just got one and uploaded a blend. Dope controller 👍🏼
Hey there I have the salsa photobooth as well, so I have a question if your iPad is connected to the WCM wifi, how does the WCM gets WiFi? Because the salsa app doesn’t work if there is no internet connection
The salsa booth works I haven’t figured out how to get both so I just at the end of event let them send all out as they sit in queue
Game face sir!! Do it! Let's see what your made of!!❤❤
What is this short cut to get to printer settings?
How much were you drinking?
Day 10 just landed in my lap and my wife says I am just as annoying sober as I am when drunk LOL!!!

Thanks for the Video.
I love it
I had it twice and it was painful than giving birth. First time, I was 7 days in the hospital and the second 6 days. To this day I'm always concerned about my pancreas. I don't have any more gallbladder and I don't drink and no new medicine at that time, doctors can't tell why. To me, it's just came out of the blue, fast and furious and went to the emergency room right away.
Hi DJ, glad to hear that you have given up Alcohol. Alcohol can cause Pancreatitis but it will also damage your Liver. Gallstones can also produce Pancreatitis. Gallstones are produced by high Fat and high Salt intake. I have just left hospital after my second bout of Pancreatitis and I am a totally Alcohol free man having never touched it in my life. So, sometimes, the reason for the attach can be hard to find. One thing to point out about Pancreatitis is the inability to breath. imagine that you have been punched, hard, in the stomach. Not only is the pain high but you can't take a breath!!! DJ, sadly your message will fall on deaf ears and some may even 'It won't happen to me' BUT DJ, you have learned the best way to keep it at bay and I'm proud of you. As @likewise4Gaming said in his message STAY STRONG!!!!!!
4 days for me
The pancreatitis gang wow we are many so i eat organic sweet potatoes and eggs with honey its my dinner 🍽️ and chicken breast dry flavor less and bananas are the foods that dont inflame me also almonds green apples go for organic at all times god bless i take digestive enzymes 2 times a day and im still trying to avoid stomach pain
Love mine got ProX case for it too & all cost me $450 brand new. I did $1k + gigs with it already. I hook mine on my old ProFX5 Mackie sound mixer if I do expensive gigs. If I’m doing something simple that don’t need good quality EQ on mics then I just use it alone. Never gave me problems & crazy thing I can do crab scratches on it like I do on my Rane12s or Tech12s.
Do you know why I can’t hear the audio through my headphones that are connected to my rev1 by any chance?
@@dryxbee Did you upgrade the firmware? If it has glitches off/on your computer. If nothing then your rev1 is busted return it if you can.
@@DJFREAKYFINGERS1 where would I go to upgrade my firmware, it’s just my cross fader is need to program it I think
@@dryxbee All those configuration is in your 💻 & in Serato or other Dj software your using with your Rev1.
If you had pancreatitis more that once you need to be checked with a endoscopy periodically for a IPMN, thats removed with the whipple procedure. If you dont remove the IPMN it turns into mixed IPMN then to pancreatic cancer.
Congratulations on your sobriety! I am a nursing school student studying for my exam on pancreatitis! Thank you for your first hand account. It helps solidify the text book information.
I live in the UK and watched this video because my 51 year old brother was admitted to hospital Sunday, 27 November 2023 with pancreatitis. He's been a functioning alcoholic for about 20 years. He's an electrician and has always worked. It's in the evenings and weekend nights when he drinks. He's told hospital staff that he can get through 6/7 bottles of Kraken, spiced rum, a week. The medical staff have been very honest with him and told him if he doesn't stop it will kill him. He tells us it is a wake up call for him and he will stop using alcohol. I pray he does. He's still in hospital but may be discharged today or tomorrow. The hospital are going to provide him with medication to help with the withdrawal symptoms. Thank you for this video and I am going to tell my brother to watch it and to take heed of what you say. Thank you once again. ❤
Great video! Which photobooth are you using? Big iPad in a….? Looks really cool….
