Road Ready flight case: Roadready RRCDJDNS10W
Contents of the video
Right folks, I've had this piece of kit for quite a while but I wanted to give it a bit of a run for its money first of all. It's from a company called RoadReady and it's known as a flight case. In this I've got two CDJ-400s and the DJM-400 as well. You can see there you've got one, two, three oblong bits. Well what happens is when you take the top off... Those three bits will slide up, enabling you to get to the bits of kit inside. So what I'll do, I'll just pause the camera and I'll show you how you can take the top off. Right, we've got this thing here. It's known as a butterfly clip. What you do is you turn it and then that opens up like that.
Now there's another one on the other side and then there's two at the back as well. OK, this is the back of the unit. Also, you've got a handle as well. It's relatively heavy but it's not... All of these are securely in place, so you've got one there, one there for your two CD players and one in the middle for your mixer. Right, there you go. Remember these three bits here? Well what you do is you can just slide these out like so. There you go. You can get to your pieces of kit then. Right also, there's this area here that will clip in and then also you can take them out so you can have your cables in there and nothing's messy and all over the place.
Now what I like as well, you've got holes here, so you don't have to have the cables over here. They can go from your CD players through the holes into your mixer. And also, let me just check because I'm going to move that so I can see what I'm doing here. Also there's a hole there. Now behind that there's a small plate that you can unscrew so your cables can go out of there then, for example, your audio cable to your amplifier and your power cables out of there so you haven't got to have cables going over the side.
If you've got it all sorted, you can click that in like that and then no one can see any unsightly cables. I must admit, I do like how they slot in. You know, that's not going anywhere actually. Nice fit. Alright, there you go. Flight case. Why buy a flight case? Well, the way I look at it, if you're going to spend a fortune on your pieces of kit, then you don't want to start carting them around in cardboard boxes. I have done in the past and I've regretted it. So... You get yourself a flight case and theoretically your kit should last a damn sight longer. Practice and enjoy.
