    Radio Frequencies Being Picked Up in Studio Monitors

    Unfortunately no. None of my friends are into this type of stuff. I could try a different audio interface and then return it if it still doesn't work. Any recommendations?

    Radio Frequencies Being Picked Up in Studio Monitors

    So I replugged everything back into the Furman power conditioner that you recommended, it helped reduce the volume level of the radio frequencies coming in through my studio monitors, but it still is coming through. Is the next possible solution to upgrade my audio interface or could the studio...

    Haha aight I see noticeable with more relativity, but I'm gonna roll with what I've got going on and submit. If it doesn't fit the theme, then it's whatever, discard my submission. Best of luck y'all!

    Lol how noticeable do the kung fu samples have to be? I'm using a few punch and kick sound bytes but layered with other things and manipulating the sound kind of masks it.

    Radio Frequencies Being Picked Up in Studio Monitors

    Appreciate the help man. Just made the purchase. If this doesn't work, then yeah it might actually be time to upgrade my audio interface lol. I might be back to ask about that as well. Shit is a dinosaur with how fast technology is moving.

    Radio Frequencies Being Picked Up in Studio Monitors

    Is this for sure going to fix the issue? I've been making all these purchases which I don't mind, but I just want to make sure before I buy another piece of equipment that was "supposed" to fix the issue.

    Radio Frequencies Being Picked Up in Studio Monitors

    Hmm I did a quick search of what power conditioners are. They seem pretty hefty. Do you have any recommendations on one for a small home studio? Yeah I think the cables are from Live Wire and they're 5 feet. The radio frequencies are picked up whenever my speakers are on and plugged into my...

    Radio Frequencies Being Picked Up in Studio Monitors

    Man...I'm still having issues with this and it is still annoying. I bought a Furman SS6B Surge Protector and upgraded to some balanced audio cables that I picked up from a local Guitar Center because they suggested that this would help fix the issue, but I'm still getting a pretty audible pick...

    Sweet thanks for the insight! The question wasn't really geared towards those specific classes. Just wanted to see what people thought of the classes from the site in general.

    Recommendation on DJ Controllers for a Beginner

    Lol my boi Kenan approves. Like Fade said, Mixxx is a good starting point. Plus they've got demos of the programs. Not sure how it is with Serato, but Traktor only allows 30 mins per session before it closes on you.

    Recommendation on DJ Controllers for a Beginner

    Check out Mixxx. It's a free DJ software. You don't necessarily need to have hardware gear to start with. You can learn how things work using the software first. It'll make the transition to using hardware a lot smoother since the hardware will act as a controller for what you pick up on through...

    Recommendation on DJ Controllers for a Beginner

    Yeah haha I almost got suckered in. Had to take a step back and reevaluate. I might have to start with Mixxx first. I messed with the Traktor demo for a bit. Shit is confusing as hell.

    Appreciate the link. I'm def gonna listen in to that this weekend. Thoughts on the class? Honestly, I know the gist of what compression does as well as the parameters associated with it, but when I sit down to mix after I get all the elements at levels that sit well together, my ear doesn't...

    https://www.creativelive.com/ Has anyone taken any of their classes specifically those within the Music & Audio department that could speak to the quality of these? I'm looking at the Compression & EQ Master Class bundle right now that they're offering.

    Recommendation on DJ Controllers for a Beginner

    Haha I feel that. I think there might be a setting where you can change that visually though. Either way, I'm pretty sure both do the same thing. Traktor's interface just felt more user-friendly for me.

    Recommendation on DJ Controllers for a Beginner

    I meant Guitar Center earlier lol, but I tried out both and def liked the interface of Traktor a lot more. It seemed a lot cleaner compared to Serato. A much bigger emphasis interface wise on the effects you can use which was a plus - I just downloaded the demo so I'll prob be messing with it...

    Recommendation on DJ Controllers for a Beginner

    Appreciate all the insight fellas! Short-term goal is to learn how to create mixes first, work on making them dope, and then to eventually put them up online. Long-term, I would like to be able to have a controller or a set of turntables to perform live. With that in mind and from what y'all...

    Recommendation on DJ Controllers for a Beginner

    I'm going to have to check that link later since I can't open it up on my work laptop, but how much more are we talking/what additional features are missing from the DDJ-SB? I know it only comes with a limited version of Serato, but I'm willing to upgrade that or just use Virtual DJ. My goal for...

    http://www.passionatedj.com/best-dj-controller-guide-2016/ I know none of us are Facebook friends lol, but if we were, you'd see that I love sharing new music with people so I thought why not turn it into something. I'm looking to start up DJing and want to know what y'all think about that...
