Road Ready case for Pioneer DVJ-1000 Demo .RRDVJ1000

0:00 Now this particular video is in a sense it's a demonstration

Alright folks, now this particular video is in a sense it's a demonstration. Also it's a tutorial but mainly in a sense I class it as a bit of good advice. Now first of all I'm going to show you this here. Now that is a cardboard box. The reason it's called a cardboard box is because it's made of cardboard and it's a box. Right, okay, well there you go. Now I'm going to put that there. Now this guy here is a rather expensive piece of gear. It's from a company called Pioneer, it's known as the DVJ-1000. This guy here is basically all singing and dancing. The only thing it won't do for you is maybe drive your car for you but otherwise it will play MP3s, DVDs, music videos and your normal CDs. Now what I'm going to do is I'm going to put this in that box close it up and there you go. Now it's quite happy in there isn't it? It can sit there for quite a while

But this is what a lot of people will do. Now let's get one thing clear. Let's say you've got certain items that are relatively inexpensive, then maybe sticking them in a box is fine. But if you're going to spend a vast amount of money on items like this, you do not want to put them in boxes. I've seen it done and it's not a good idea because all you need is some numpty to put something on the top of there and guess what? You've got a squashed DVD player. Not a good idea.

1:30 Here it is, this is a flight case

We have these guys here. Now this is known as a flight case and again the reason I'm saying they're known as flight cases because, I mean theoretically with videos like this there's going to be loads of people who know exactly what a flight case is but then again you're always going to get a few people scratching their heads thinking what is a flight case? Well guess what? Here it is, this is a flight case. Now this guy here is from a company called Road Ready Cases. And this particular flight case was designed for that player.

In other words, if you're going to spend a vast amount of money and you can afford to buy one of those, you might as well spend a little bit extra and get something that will make sure that guy lasts a long time. Right, what I'm going to do now is I'm going to pause the camera and we'll have a closer look at the flight case and also I'll give you a little tip on how to set two sponges There you go, there it is. So in other words, when you get to the gig, you don't have to take the player out. You can literally just take the lid off, that compartment away and there you go, you can use it. Now it comes with a couple of sponges like that.

Now they are for keeping the player in the correct position. Now here's a bit of a tip for you. A lot of people, what they'll do, if I can just show you as well, on one side you've got some Velcro and the Velcro will stick. ...quite well, like so. Now a lot of people what they'll do, again this is a bit of a tip, they'll just put one there, one there and they'll think yeah guess what it will hold the player in place which it will do but the last thing you want is a lot of pressure on this area continually. Now here's a tip for you and it works dead easy. What you need to do is make sure the velcro is facing upwards and I'm going to put one of the sponges there

Over, see we've got no buttons or knobbly bits at all. One of them there and then at the back here we have got some buttons but they're not sticking out that much. These guys are here and also the pitch controls. So what I'm going to do, I'm going to put this one at the back there like that. Now watch this, this is pretty logical but pretty cool. All I'm going to do is put the lid on like that, there you go. There you go. Now what I'll do, I'll put a clickable link in the description of this video that will take you to the Road Ready Cases website. There you go. Look after your stuff and it'll look after you. Practice and enjoy. Thank you.
