So You Want To Be A DJ.
Chapter 11: Setup and Breakdown
When you walk into a venue, you have to make a few
decisions. Sometimes, the people planning the event
already have a space designated for you to set up.
Other times, you will have to figure this out for
yourself.
Some things to keep in mind when choosing where to
set up:
•
Make sure you are near an electrical outlet. Be
mindful of other items plugged into the same
outlet or circuit; things like crock pots consume
a lot of power, and may cause problems such as
a tripped circuit breaker.
•
Be sure that there is room for your table and
equipment, with ample room to move around
while you are working. You do not want to be
cramped.
•
Think about where you might place your
speakers – will your speaker wires reach from
your DJ table.
•
If hosting a Karaoke gig, will the singers be
able to see your Karaoke screen while facing
the audience. Will the microphone wires (if
any) be in the way of the guests.
