Equipment...
Let's face it- anybody can go out and buy or hire DJ equipment and call
themselves a DJ. Unfortunately, not many people have the experience,
talent and skills to use those tools effectively in a wedding reception entertainment
setting. Although top quality equipment is critical for reliability
and effect, it is the operator who makes the difference. You wouldn't
hire a Builder to build your house based on which brand of hammer he used!
You can be rest assured that I use top of the range equipment this is for
3 reasons:
- Reliability: As I use my equipment week in week out I need to have confidence
that when I arrive at a venue and plug it in that it will work. During the summer months it is not uncommon for me to perform at 3 weddings each week!
- Presentation: As a bride and groom you will have spend a lot of time
ensuring that the room for the evening reception looks just how you want
it, what you don’t want is for the DJ to turn up with ‘tacky’ speakers
and rusty lights which would spoil all of your hard work!
- Performance: By purchasing quality equipment I know that my sound system
will have great clarity, yet offer plenty of punch when required. My lightshow
will also both fill the room with vibrant colors and can be controlled
by myself for optimum effect.
All of my equipment is under 3 years old and is PAT (Portable Appliance
Tested) on a yearly basis. Certain venues may wish to see a copy of my PAT
certificate; this can be arranged by me.
For your peace of mind I carry a back up of all of the essential items that
I use such as CD players and thus if for any reason an item wasn’t
working I would have a backup unit on-site. Due to the quality of the equipment
that I use however I have never had a piece of equipment fail on me
yet!
For those of you who are interested in disco equipment I use a Mackie sound
system and all of my lighting is produced by EVL and ACME. I also use a Pioneer CD
unit.
