Mobile DJ PA Set up for Large Dance Floors

Lesson Intermediate Stage 7: Software & Gear November 2019

Contents of the video

Right, so everyone has just had the main course and as you can see it's a very big marquee. We've got over 400 people in here today and an exceedingly large dance floor. So just a very basic stereo sound, it just wouldn't work in here. So I've got a system here, the other side and then a middle bit which is what I call the infill. So if you've ever watched any big bands, you know sort of super massive stadiums, you'll of course see the line array right left of the stage but little did you know possibly that there's always a system in between and you may have a whole bunch of bass players. So I've got some bass cabs and just some monitors, they look like monitors but they're basically filling in the centre part of the stage area where maybe people right at the front won't get any sound. So of course if I have a dance floor full of people, you know the sound would be adequate but I want to make sure that it's adequate for everyone.

So the speakers in the centre, there's single... QSC KW181 and then on top I've got the K8 from QSC and they're just 8 inch monitors, I use them in the room but they're quite adequate for here because their proper PA speakers are just not in set to run high and no bass. So let's see how it pans out this evening.

Below this line is the back catalogue, newest first. Useful for browsing, but it is not a course - the videos are in the order they were filmed, not the order to learn them in. Work the stages instead: each one assumes the one before it.
