Good vid!
Pro Tips:
1. Get a 8X8 canopy
2. Brackets, hooks and ties for the Van
3. Tie your extension cord to the power strip so you wont forget it.
4. Always plug the controller in before launching Serato.
5. Turn on both speakers and turn the volume down.
Bard lose that 50 foot cable and get something better. The wire gauge (thickness) is 14. That way too thin of wire to travel 50 feet and will not provide the proper voltage to your equipment which can cause the wire to overheat and damage your equipment. Get a wire with a gauge value of 12 or 10. The lower the gauge the thicker the wire. Pro Tip from a DJ that’s also an electrician.
I second this! Grab a roll of SO or SJ cable 12/3 and make your own. very professional looking and very tough! Don't skimp on the ends either. :)
Just upgraded all my cables my past gig . Only thing I’m pissed about is all the cheap ass extensions I bought from Amazon in the past
mike sciocchetti where can I find SO or SJ to make my own
DJ Hands-On Home Depot sells that cable by the foot or you order a spool from them or amazon. I use SO for bringing power to me. Then SJ for anything else. It’s the same cable just smaller diameter. Go check it out at the store. You will see what I mean. SJ just stands for service cord junior. It’s used in industrial applications. Very tough. Doesn’t mind the cold or the heat. Rating is really SOOW. And SJOW.
That's why I love these channels. Not just for the awesome content that we see, but also for the comments of other DJ's and pro's. Thanks Lou Primo. I'm gonna grab a few of those as well.
connect the ddj 1000 to the laptop first before launching serato. This usually helps
I do this all the time
ok i will try , thank you .
As I’m watching your video i was saying the same thing plug in the controller before launching the Serato app
With controllers, you must plug them in... then turn on computer and open a fresh copy of Serato. Not always, but good practice to do this.
Agreed! I had this issue with my s9 then I realized it’s best to plug then launch Serato. Had 0 problems since
I use iPads all the time for ceremonies and as back up for grand entrance. They save my butt a couple times. Pro tip do not leave iPad in direct sun they over heat and takes about 10 minutes to cool down.
Dj Slick I second this. I once did an outdoor ceremony while setup in direct sunlight. The iPad worked fine for the processional but during the course of the ceremony, the iPad overheated because of the sun and I couldn’t play the recessional. I now have a small iPod available as backup. I also keep both out of the sun until the last possible moment.
Dude literally just happened to me this weekend . Had my iPad on standby not even thinking my laptop was gonna overheat . SAVED MY ASS BIG TIME . Two minutes before laptop froze up . iPad came through !!
At least you can live in your van if all goes wrong.
Suggest you don’t wrap it, to avoid breaki ins
facts!!!! I had my van stolen and broken a second time
Also controller needs to be connected before opening up serato, biggest smallest inconvenience lol
Love the van. I invested in a VW Caddy van about a year ago when I could no longer load all my equipment for mobile gigs in my car. Best investment I did. Love your gig logs! Regards from hot and sunny South Africa.
If anything over heats, everything will sound destorted... so when done Barr, unplug everything and cover everything !!
Whenever I have an outdoor event, no matter the event or any other specifics. I ALWAYS bring my own canopy/tent. (Bonus: You can customize the canopy/tent with your company logo or colors) I also bring mini battery-powered fans for myself and sometimes my equipment.
Thomas Schultz yes , I doing same
I’ve done plenty of outside weddings my QSC K10’s have never failed due to the built in fans.
Get a fan pad for the laptop
You put this under the laptop and it has like 2 3 fans exstra
I'll go with this, i even use one for my own laptop at home
Yes, you can fit a lot of things there, but be shure to install a cargo separation and metalic guards for the rear windows. Then you can stack everything you can imagine inside that van. Believe me, I carry a lot more eqquipment than you in an old ram van 1500 (model 2000).
Contract says I have to be under cover. I also bring a little umbrella you can connect to the speaker pole. Also a high power but compact fan.
Speaker don't overheat but amplifier does that's why we use passive speakers in outdoors and we just put the amplifiers inside.
That crowd is hype! Nice job, man.
I got last year a ford transit extended length low top- best movie have made ever for djing-love it
AZ heat is on another level. We have had 50+ days of 110 degree plus heat.
I'm in central California and it get to hot. 100-112 degree summer days. I have a claude in my contract that states that all DJ equipment has to be covered and the venue or B&G must supply it. I also use a laptop fan. Cheap from Amazon that your laptop sits on top of....
Barr I live in AZ it gets 115, I never DJ under the sun but in the shady area it's still hot. I use a laptop cooling fan, I carry 2 small fans 1 for my controller and 1 for my yamaha mixer. and I also have a fan to cool me down. and I drink lots of H20 and eat banana, craps from being dehydrated is a killer..
DJ Barr thanks for all of the advice and tips it's really helpful for a beginner dj like so thank you very much
I use to hate the heat because of laptop fails.(I had the horrible laptop shut downs at a few weddings and that's a nightmare) I've also DJ'd at a water park every summer all summer long since 2014. I've gone through some laptops....ugh. I finally bought a stand alone and decided on the Denon Prime 4. Difficult transition for me but now that I'm use to it I will never go back. I used it 3 times a week this entire summer and it has never given me any problems. I think you would love it! And they've fixed the software bugs that it had in the beginning.
Doing outdoor weddings/gigs here in AZ where it gets 118 degrees can be tricky. I built in a cooling fan system into the sliding top tray of the pro-x case under my laptop. Hasn't overheated yet..Fingers crossed
Do you have a video on this? I was thinking about doing the same.
In NC outside weddings are a normal and having a laptop cooling pad is key. Also check Amazon for Liquid IV it’s packet you add to water also look for Hi-Lyte electrolyte salt caps on amazon. Both are must haves.
Man this hit me right in the feels. My last 3 events have been outside in Michigan, at venues that are NOT normally outside. Only 1 had appropriate coverage as required in our contract.
I honestly think people think it’s just us being “divas” or expecting too much, but all I want to do is deliver an exceptional event. If you can’t see your laptop, cues, stuff like that.... man it’s tough.
And YES the bugs brah, hate the bugs. At least 90 minutes day after cleaning all my equipment.
I always bring or have a 4 x4 personal canopy in my suv for outdoor events. Just in case. To me having having that personal. Or even the standard canopy is part of your equipment when it comes to outdoor events
Awesome bro you got the reception jumping.
Ok, I have to know, when you get all sweaty doing the set up and getting things ready to go, what do you do BEFORE putting your suit on? NO WAY I could just go throw my suit and tie on, I would be a sweaty pile of crap long before the festivities start. PLEASE give me some insight on what you do. Do they have showers on the venues you could use? Please say this is the case.
Wassi Productions I haven't had any response. I'm a professional musician and I do a solo acoustic gig. I have stripped down my set up as much as possible for this reason. I'm in Phoenix, we just had a run of 115 degrees for 3 months. I would be pouring sweat if I had to set up a full DJ set up. Which is the plan in the next few months. I need this info.
Also, along with your rags for your sweat. Pack a fan as well. It will save you from sweating all day
Been doing outdoor gigs in LA for yearsssss now. I run 2007 Mac book and EV speakers. Never had an issue with overheating
what controller are you using
Awesome job! Hey I had the same heat issues too!I bought those tall fans and pointed them at my turntables and lappy all night! Guess what, the moving air going through them kept the heat down. I can feel the difference just by touching the surface. I do not like out doors of this reason but it helped a lot.
11 mins!?! Damn Barr, you are the boss!
Barr this literally just happened to me my past gig this weekend !!! This is why I love you Barr , freaking MacBook Pro 💻 kept going out , it was 118 degrees outside .
congrats on the work truck, it was well needed and a good investment
All you need to do. is to turn off the controller and switch on again, it happens to me as well, it's not a problem.
Always keep a tent with you... black &/or white pop up tent. You could even get a custom pop up tent made with your logo.
Then I keep water and Gatorade then for longer events I bring a cooler
As a professional pro audio installer for Celebrity concerts and large venues, And pro audio installation for night clubs all over the East Coast. Overheating can be an issue indoor or outdoor of course more likely outdoors. With 30 years experience. What I do with my crew especially on outdoor venues we try not to use powered speakers and we run our amplifiers somewhere inside and come out with heavy 12 gauge XLR cables or 10 gauge XLR cables just to the speakers as the amplifiers are inside comfortably being air-conditioned. Never an issue with that particular set up. Also it’s good to use oversize power cables as well and of course a dedicated circuit if there’s one provided there at the event. Good power condition units are very important as well to keep the powerline very stable especially for your mono amps running the subs. But if you have to use active powered speakers we have found that QSC never overheats of course keep them out of direct sunlight but we have had events go on for 15 hours nonstop without any issues. It’s all depending on how well the heat sinks are manufactured and made on the internal active amplifier. It’s also very dependent in high heat situations on what type and what size capacitors the manufactures use on the internal active amplifier. In most cases entry level active amplified pro DJ speakers will run borderline for an outdoor event or venue. They mostly are pushing the limits once you really start pushing the system to the higher volumes because of course the resistance will increase and your active amplifiers will heat up more. Purchasing better quality active speakers instead of the entry-level although it’s a high-quality brand let’s say does not usually cut it in the entry level market. There are some ways around it if you’re not using the better quality line of pro audio speakers. Not really recommended but what you could do is if normally you need for speakers let’s say mids and highs. You can add an additional two so you have a total of six which will give you more sound output at a lower resistance rate. So you will still have the volume output that you are desiring especially when you’re jamming out but because of those two additional speakers it will really free up a lot of the work on the four that you normally would just need to power that particular size of area. But again at that point due to the price bracket if you bought for mid-level good quality brand pro audio speakers from the start you most likely would only need four instead of purchasing entry level adding two additional would probably put you at the cost of where you should’ve originally bought for higher quality speakers. But QSC Pretty much rules the industry with robust active amplifiers if you’re looking to go with built-in amps. And your cabling is super important best to just always carry around with you no smaller than 12 gauge. For our equipment we keep our decks cool with a custom unit manufactured for us that when all of our controllers, mixers or turntables Are being set down a sit on top of a custom cooling system with mini fans below flush mounted as it also stabilizes all the equipment and substantially reduces vibration.
Thought I just drop in saw your video out of the blue. Enjoy
Try a new USB cable. Always plug it into the same usb port on your computer.
Whether it's a large crowd or in this case a small gathering you keep them rockin. Good job dude.
What’s up Barr? I totally agree with you about outdoor weddings. I’ve done three this summer and that heat was unbearable. On the bright side, they were all fun events. This crowd was hype, and really came to party. You killed it my friend. The new is is dope too. Appreciate all you do for the DJ community.#Salute
Also btw, I love my new Denon Prime 4 w internal drive! The easiest, lightest main setup in 30 years! I want the Prime Go for ceremony (and it will double as a main backup!) the laptop is a 2ndary backup but stays in the backpack! I’m all about light, compact, pro systems. I’ll be doing some vids on this all soon, but would love to get your take...?
Great gig log! I use the Bose S1 for cocktail he aswell. And for ceremony with iPad! Then as a monitor during reception😎👍
This just happened to me at an outdoor gig with my 2018 Macbook Pro. It was 98 outside and full humidity. None of my programs would open (bouncing icons). Ran an ipad for about an hour until the unit actually did boot. Serato took 30 mins to open, it was terrible. My seventy-two was 75% operational with some functions not responding Serato wise. I was able to get through it thankfully. I did warn the party host that I was not 100% and she did appreciate that. The next day (indoors) I booted my mac and it was back to normal, thankfully no catastrophic damage. Non the less, outdoor gigs are indeed rough and can destroy your operation limiting your full potential. Thanks for the tips!
Congrats on the Ram....get a fold up 8ft ramp, it will save ur back over the yrs. Down here in SC they don't give AF were doing weddings indoors.
Great video as usual !
I used to have my mackies overheat 🤬
I recently had my ipad overheat I had to play of my phone ! Always have a backup plan.
Dj Theo
Nice video y si muy Caliente. I dj with my daughter but anytime we do a wedding out doors I always set up a pop up tent. To keep me cool and if they say anything I always say I don't want to heat up the equipment and ruin a wedding. It's a fancy gray into white so it passes as fancy.
Windows computers don't over heat. Other than the new 16inch the Mac book pros have very poor thermal design.
roasted😂
Here we go again the bad ass Rick web coming the rescue 🤦🏻♂️. Coming and saying Windows is better.
Oh one more thing! Do you see big time djs carrying windows computer. Umm not there using mac books, also there outside doing crazy partys. You don’t see them complaining
That’s so true my Windows computer never over heated on me had it for 3-4 years 😝
The newest MBP has been having heat sync problems. This is why I'm still using 2012s. My Dj friends using new Windows have all been over heating too.
Create a mini tiki laptop hut to protect it from direct sunlight along with an appropriate sized air moving fan to help keep your laptop within reasonable operating temperatures when working in direct sunlight. Never let your laptop be exposed that way for any extended periods or that repair bill will just keep resurfacing. Would luv to see you come up to Canada and spin with me at my gigs. Good times be had by all eh! Cheers!
For your Ipad, get the App called GO button....it allows you build a cue list for your tracks to play after each other with a simple go button.... Just like they do in theatre shows...
Connection issues with serato. Try connecting your controller before launching serato. If that doesnt work hit the cue button on the left platter a couple times until the decks pop up on serato
In Chicago, I bring a few nice big black umbrellas and extra speaker stands, I can use them to cover my setup (especially for ceremony) you just have to have a wide enough speaker stand hole and the proper handle on the umbrella to pop it in, and they are easy to use and look professional enough.
i love watching ur vids
@DJ Barr the newer Macbooks don't handle heat well AT ALL outside especially with sun. Try to avoid whenever possible. It's a known issue with them. The older Macbooks didn't have this issue but the slimmer ones do.
If you’re doing an outdoor ceremony, use a mobile device and push to be under shade, if not, get a speaker stand a big umbrella and gaffe tape the umbrella to the speaker stand and raise the stand over your speaker outside.
And bring a tower fan with you if it’s very humid outside as you’re mixing the reception
No need to do that they make Umbrella stands w/base and they have solar lighting underneath. Life saver!
amzn.to/2GfgZwZ
Cooling pad for my laptop and always bring my own easy up in case I’m not shaded
Please make a video lwalking a newbie step by step through an entire wedding. I really need to see just exactly what I’m going to be doing as a DJ. The more detailed THE BETTER!! So glad to see you back up and running.
You actually bought a van at a great time. That thing is worth a lot more now
i'vehad a speaker's voice coil overheat so much the resin melted off the coil , it did cost me a speaker , luckily the lifetime warrany replaced it . love rcf
Who did you contact with Rcf I haven’t had any issues with mine but did you contact them in Edison nj directly?
My experience is that issue is with the MacBook, not the controller or serato. Restart. It did it with my sz2 as well. If I lost connection or power during a gig I'd have to restart the whole computer before the laptop would recognize the USB again
I ran a outdoor photo booth the other day.
My laptop over heated at least 4 times!😡
We are almost always outside here, Cali gets over 100 a few months a year. we made a deal with a rental company and now keep a market umbrella with our systems every time we go out. Life saving fan and an umbrella is all you ned bruh!
90% of our weddings are outdoors, for ceremonies I try to setup under a tree if possible. but for receptions, there's a good change we'll be in direct sunlight. Vinyl skins, white, can save your gear. We also use a small clip on umbrella to keep the gear out of the sun until its time to go -- at that point the sun is usually in a more manageable position. Drink all the water you can carry. Don't worry too much about stuff over heating, but pay close attention to your laptop. My DDJ-1000 has been too hot to touch but its never failed -- we are going to get a white skin kit for it. I've never had a connection issue, but I have the RB version -- it works everytime with VirtualDJ (I know, I'm probably not a real dj... LOL)
Hey barr whats up hermano. Hey you can make racks on the side of the van so you can hang stuff on the side and have room to walk through the middle. Goodluck with your baby
Been using fans on equipment since turntables were the only way to Dj..lol
Vornado fan covers your controller case and laptop while not looking out of place..still sexy..and quiet
I'm happy to pay you monthly I've learned so much from you already.
Thank you!
I’ve been doing quite a few events in Palm Springs where it’s about 110 degrees. I have a fan pad & I use a cooling towel on top & then place my Mac on top. Everything stays nice & cool. Plus I have a Wind Machine that I blow on the entire set up. Stay cool..
rule number one never plug your power cord into a GFI unless you like total shutdowns, I would always carry a pop-up shade canopy that way you supply your own shade a 12 ft by 12 ft would be sufficient
Keep it up bro I hate djing outside
Coleman makes up black and red water cooler. The size is perfect that it fits under the laptop stand and I filled it with dry ice. Really helps to keep the laptop real cool.
Hey Barr, congrats on the new ride! Curious, have you ever considered the dodge grand caravan with full stow and go? Cheaper and a lot more versatile in my opinion with tons of room still...
I don’t mind outdoor weddings if it’s nice out or a little chilly.
had issues with Serato connecting to hardware in general. What u can do is try vdj and see if it gives the same trouble in connecting. If it does then u know it's either the cable or the device. If it dont and connects to vdj consistently, then u know it's serato.
Most of my gigs are outdoor, i use a battery operated system for ceremonies. I use a Maui 5 GO, and battery packs to run the mic and laptop, although yesterday i used my new Denon Prime GO, loved it ! I use a small facade type booth and attach small clamp on umbrellas if the sun is an issue.
I’ve had the issue with the connection of the srt1000 all you have to do it close serato and reopen it. I know it’s an extra step for no reason, but we gotta do what we gotta do
Also....for ddj1000....get an Apple usb type c to usb dongle. Make sure its an authentic Apple Product. My ddj was messing up and freezing because i was using a 3rd party dongle.
The heat and humidity in Houston tx sucks and kills computers quickly.what I do is actual buy a bag of dry ice( usually the pellet form).I'll then wrap the dry ice with a few towels and then put my computer on top. Another way is still with dry ice ,I put underneath the fan which is placed on a laptop fan then laptop over that. The cold air will rise up then it pulled by the fan which then cools the bottom of the computer. Has gotten me out of many jams
Good Job Barr! that scratching intro of Yeah from Usher works every time man 🙂
It is not required to drop a ton of cash on a DJ computer. High priced Apple is not required. My music is on a HP laptop bought on sale at Bi Mart for just over 1/3 the price paid to repair that Apple. Spent another $100 for a larger internal solid state drive with the fewer plugs, the more reliable it is. Due to the main function for me is production, with some DJ on the side, the sofware is MIXXX on Linux Mint. Decided to abandon Windows after attending an event that was delayed for the better part of an hour due to a forced upgrade. This is not production ready. My music laptop is kept in a hardshell case with the Mixmaster Pro controller. Yes dated, but in great shape. Yes it works in 100 degree weather.
I strongly suggest you board and line your van out to protect it inside. Maybe put some sound deadening in there to if your into car audio.
Hey man great to see your back on the grind. Hopefully it keeps going
Barr update the controller to the latest firmware. High Sierra works the best on MacBook Pro for Serato users. My friend was on Catalina and his SRT 1000 wouldn't connect. It works fine with High Sierra. Im from Galveston,Texas very hot and humid. You must keep your Mac clean on the inside and put a small Lasko blower on the side of your computer when out in heat. TRUST ME I've been in the same situation. I like your van, don't wrap it. That keep thieves away. Keep up the good work.
You need your own tent, Walmart sells a small tent that I use. 5x5 Pop-up Canopy with optional side tent wall.
I’ve seen a lot of people say that they’ve been having problems with the usb cables themselves as far as the connection to your cdjs....
U should buy a white Collapsible tent and then when you do an outdoor wedding you have it
For me if it doesn’t work I have to shut down and restart my computer that always works then it will connect
Providing your clients some peace of mind- exactly! Man, outdoor wedding is almost all I do in the Pacific Northwest lol
Congrats on the van!
how do you keep your computer from overheating
can you make a video explaining your dj tools for the weddings , sweet 16s, quincenera etc
Showing love to the barr nation!!!!!!!
Bro were in Texas and we require our customers to provide overhead cover.
Hi Barr, I use Cooling ice packs under my laptop covered by a gym towel it always works for me. Good luck for the next one.
Hey Barr Jay was having the same issue with his DDJ-1000. It ended up being the usb cord.
Fern Entertainment I'll try a different one
@@BayardoRugama good luck.
True. Best to use a USB with a ferrite choke on it.
Living down here in the south I learned to carry to your own stuff for outdoor events as in fans, tents and a personal cooler to keep drinks because maaaaaannn it be hot!
Mannn, Hispanic wedding are great!!!
I use an external laptop fan mat. Works like a charm.
Nice new car dj barr
I really dig your videos! Great stuff!
In GA here. I use cooling fan pad under my laptop...also use a crane stand for more airflow.
For Controller Connection Problems. Try This. Have Controller Already Plugged with USB. Don't Start Serato yet. Turn You Controller On First. Then Open Serato. That Works For Me. Hope That Works For You Also.
Dope vlog bro. They sell these platform fans powered by USB, laptop sits right on it and it prevents overheating for events like this.
I live in Southern California and about 80-90% of my gigs are outdoors. Fortunately, I avoid the direct sun light to my laptop. I’ve done a pool side gig in 115 and the laptop was still overheating in the shade. We use ice buckets to put underneath the laptop. That seems to work.
That Dainty Kane Though!!!!
