We have 2024 year, someone already figured out how to write WAV formats to plate? If it’s not possible do you know anything about writing track data to plate during production process of record plates?
I seen many people scratching (weeke weeke) on vinyls turntables like old school gangsta but just wonder how to loop automatically the plate?
Loading another record to turntable even worth? As far I know it’s time consuming comparing to the most industry standard CDJs.
If quality of vinyls are true, slowing down the BPM lower the sample rate by default or it’s the same HQ?
You it’s possible, even since the heyday of vinyl.
For bigger production a mould is etched and pressed into vinyl, but for smaller productions (even 1 copy) there are lathes who chisel the groove directly onto a lacquer plate. But such lacquers have a smaller lifespan. And those are still expensive machines…
As you mention looping, I wonder if you’re referring to the use of time code vinyl (TCV) or a digital vinyl system (DVS) which uses a control signal in the vinyl to control the playback of digital files from DJ software?
That’s a lot simpler/cheaper/easier than pressing your own vinyl.
There is a guy on Instagram who uses the DJM-909 loop roll function (maybe called something else) to create 4 beat loops with his vinyl, most pioneer mixers do it.
Regarding to vinyls playback and some Pioneer mixers it is good for mixing the Bass and basically the low end? My old dj tech 303 has one issue and this is clipping sound when 4 tracks playing at the same time. On channel one I have plugged 2 decks and from channel 2 the 3,4 decks. So 4 low ends overlaping to each other and this sounds too harsh. I try keep the Low at 0 decibels but sometimes layering multiple basses overlaping wrong way.
I looking for best 2 channel mixer that prevent bad bass overlaping issue, imagine you have 2 random sounds at the same frequency range but it not sounds good because mixer is “Busy”
Still you’ll have to be careful not to overload anything downstream in the soundsystem, and respect SPL limits. 2 tracks mixed flat together are a 6 dB rise, 4 are 12dB…
Yeah that’s pretty the overload of bus due to specific hardware components, I should send that master signal to compressor and limiter for 4 decks mixing or any other enhancement audio device?
Ahh that’s would be too difficult for me since my ears are damaged since 2018s. I know it ■■■■■ it was caused by Creative soundcard company because I keep the volume above 60-80%
For example everything at 85 dB loudness or even more like Gun or fireworks are not scary for me. I listen to loud subbass in car audio setups sometimes too
These mixers have or filters or ISO master EQ, where you reduce the bass to prevent clipping.
@Hypnoza
If it goes to loud sounds, it is a difference between the sudden burst and a long term volume increase, where your ear adapts slightly to higher volume, and then 90dB seems “normal”.
The Master level that Johan was referring to is a VU meter on your mixer, your ears are not involved in looking at it. Just look and keep the level below 0dB on the master and input channels - you will then hear the positive difference.
You can do it without the isolator though, as Johan says it involves not topping out the channel fader, but the summing on them usually means you can run 3/4 tracks at once and keep everything in check, with the one you want to take the bass from being open fully.
