    TOTD?

    Nice one spector. Screw wearing those masks though, that would get annoying
  2. russel if your ever in freo go to mills? records. I don't have TT's myself, but defkon showed me there and it seemed decent, might be worth checking out.
  3. Or buy a mac and never have any of these problems.... 6 years and counting for my 13" macbook. Still runs sweet. ^Both these points. 4 yr old MacBook still going strong as. Even Considering keeping it for a while at uni til I can afford a new one to save buying a new windows for the time being. Also had it where I thought I'd do someone a favor and put a new screen in their laptop. Wouldn't normally do those kind of jobs as it usually not worth the hassle, but I knew these people so I did Even though a monitor worked when plugged in externally, replacement screen and new cable didn't fix it, now I'm 150 out of pocket and can't get rid of the screen.
  4. I do a similar thing with my playlists as the pic source posted, but I make a new folder for each month. Example: Playlist folder called '2012-01' And genre playlists inside that
  5. Not saying iTunes is the best, but it's good as most other programs (eg record box) can pull info from it, will work with iPod etc. What I do with mine is let iTunes handle the folder sorting for me, so after you drag Into iTunes, you delete where you dragged it from as iTunes copies it to its own folder, then sorts it by artist/album in folders. Then just tag your songs correctly and use playlists. Can explain Better how to enable it and use it when I get home on a comp
  6. Still works for me in tapatalk. Try delete and reinstall app
  7. Nek minute, 10 freshly made accounts vote for Spector
  8. ^what awesome said. Controllers will come with legit copy, but a more basic version. Can upgrade to pro for a small fee. Plus traktor 2 pro isn't $700, it's close to $2-300, it's 700 for traktor scratch
  9. Mixcloud still have anti copyright stuff written on their and say you are liable and they can take it down etc. They just don't enforce it like soundcloud does by scanning each upload and blocking tracks/mixes. Think they mainly have it their to cover their own ass
  10. Y u no learn? Gotta post in the music section under the genre dude
  11. Nice one gandy
  12. Djm 350 (and 400) Only have RCA out
  13. 20ft - https://www.storedj.com.au/products/HOS-XRM120 10ft - https://www.storedj.com.au/products/HOS-XRM110 depending how long you need/want the cables to be edit - lurk6r wins. but i have two links
  14. My sister put me in charge of buying her laptop and i ended up getting her this. However before new years they were on a better special and there was a cashback deal at the time, so it was cheaper than it says there. IF you have a hunt around you might score this pretty cheap. Very powerful, and has HDMI. http://www.centrecom.com.au/catalog/y56 ... ml?sort=2a But can give you a more specific answer when i know how much $ you want to spend. Also mac/win preference?
  15. Budget?
  16. One for each speaker
  17. One or two speakers If two, you'll need two of these If one speaker: They are an Xlr to RCA Cable
  18. woops, that always confuzzles me.
  19. Sick, DLing
  20. you mean kinda like skrillex?
  21. ^This. You also need an abn to get .au domains
  22. Note: On the step you enter in your static Ip, aka at this screen: You may also need to put in your dns servers. they can be found by typing ipconfig /all into the command prompt, or if you can't find them there, you can google them. AKA Tesltra DNS servers, Optus DNS servers etc.
  23. This is for windows users, I already made a mac tutorial using nicecast, this will be using icecast and butt to broadcast on win. Here is Icecast Tutorial NOTE - This tutorial is for audio streaming only, if you want to do a video stream, check out Livestream (www.livestream.com) 1. -Download program from icecast website (Choose Windows Setup version) - http://www.icecast.org/ - Open the file and install the program, leaving all options as default -Download and install Butt (Broadcast Using This Tool) - http://sourceforge.net/projects/butt/files/ (just click the link next to ‘looking for latest version?’) 2. Set up a static IP on your PC Windows Vista/7 -Start Menu -Type ‘CMD’ into search bar and press enter -Type ‘ipconfig’ and press enter -A list of connections your computer has will appear. Find the connection your computer is using (generally Ethernet or wireless) and that is the details we will need. We will need the IPv4 address, Subnet mask, and default gateway. Minimise that window but keep it open, as we will use those details in a minute. -Open Start Menu -Control Panel -> Network & Internet -> Network and Sharing Center -Click Wireless Network Connection (‘yournetworknamehere’) - Click Properties -Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IP v4) Then Click Properties -Click use the following IP Address, then enter the details that you got from the IPconfig screen *NOTE* if you go to connect to somebody else’s network, you will need to change this back to ‘Obtain an IP address automatically’. Important to remember that, especially if you take your laptop to uni/work etc. Then when you want to stream again you will need to back and re enter these settings, so write them down when you enter them -Click OK -> Close -> Close Your computer now has a static IP Win Xp Coming Soon (Still have to find a computer with it installed around the house). The basics are the same for xp though, should be able to figure it out. If anyone has trouble i'll add xp part in 3. Open ports on router. For this you will need to know your router model. You will find the model number on the router box somewhere Go to http://portforward.com/ -A list of routers will appear. Find your router -Skip the advertisements -A list of programs will appear. Click Icecast. -A Page will then appear with detailed instructions and screenshots of how to open the ports you need NOTE – Believe it or not, Internet Explorer (shudder) or Firefox are probably the best browsers to use to do this, some routers have dodgy config pages that don’t work with all browsers. If you are having trouble loading router pages properly, applying changes etc. this could be your problem. Try a different browser first. Unblock Icecast2Win.exe and port 8000 on your firewall *NOTE* if you don’t know how to do this you will need to look up specific instructions for the firewall you use, whether that be windows firewall or a 3rd party firewall. 4. Configure Icecast -Go to your desktop and open nicecast -Go to Configuration -> edit configuration -There is 3 passwords to be changed: source-password, relay-password, and admin-password. By default they are all ‘hackme’ so change them to something different. 5. configure Butt -open Butt -Click Settings On Main Tab -Select audio device (usually line in. This could be on built in soundcard or Traktor card line in depending on setup -Click add server --Choose icecast -Give the stream a name. This isn’t the name that everybody sees so it doesn’t matter what you call it -address = localhost -port = 8000 -Passord = password you set in icecast earlier -mountpoint = can call it whatever you like. I just called mine ‘stream’ as it’s nice and simple -click save Click add stream info -Add in any info you want Click Save Click save settings Go to stream tab -Choose your audio quality (what you set it at depends on connection. Mine Is fairly slow, so I have it set on 64kb. A lot of you could choose higher though (depending on connection speed) -Select mono or stereo -Select mp3 for broadcast codec -Go to record tab and set your record settings if you want butt to record your live stream Go back to main tab and click save settings 6. Initiate stream -open icecast and click start server. It should go green and say it’s running like below pic -open butt and click the play button (also hit record if your using it to record the set). It should connect and look like below. If it says it can’t connect it will usually give you an error. It’s likely you either typed password wrong, one of the other server settings, or icecast isn’t started up, so check those things first. -open web browser and google ‘whats my ip’ This will be used to determine your stream link, along with your mountpoint. As in pic, my IP is 121.216.xxx.xx and my mountpoint set was ‘stream’, so the link to my stream would be ‘http://121.216.xxx.xx:8000/stream’ Change that link to suit your IP and mountpoint You should be right to go! you can test your setup is working properly internally, open web broswer and type http://localhost:8000/stream, replacing stream with whatever you set your mountpoint as in butt. If it is working internally but not externally, try disabling your firewall and see if that fixes the issue. If it does, you havent configured your firewall properly, so go back and check that. Hope this helps y'all
