Temple of Boom / Jester's Lab Posted on: 15.07.2012 by Latoria Kavulich Circa 2006. We decide to give mixing a proper go. Brother Picks up the American Audio Console and i'm using a Tower PC and the mighty Psyboard. The Psyboard. Freshly excavated from the shed. First party with our epic setup. I can monitor off the PC (5.1 ch) and mix externally off the AA. On Final Scratch is DJ Flux, The founder of the Gathering parties here in New Zealand. Not a bad dude to help us get started! We start getting gigs in town (and i discover DJTT) so i splurge on a controller, DJ-Tech Imix. Hook up with a great crew and get the use of a DJM600 whenever we want. I start mixing on that. Brother picks up a DJM600 and CDJ800's. I Finally get a laptop and an Audio 4! AA goes into "retirement". We get the Wharfedale Pro 15" PA's, Stands etc. Epic wattage. Skipping ahead a bit. I Flick off the I-mix, get two X1's. Sold Audio 4, Pick up an Audio 6 and Crane Stand. I pick up a UDG bag and a few bits and pieces to cram in it. Pick up some nice Chromacaps for the X1's and the DJM600 and pick up a Midifighter 3D Decide to pick up a mixer of my own. I have to choose between a DJM700 or DNX1600. Guess who won. "Jester's Lab" The journey continues .. Questions + comments welcome. | |

Latoria Kavulich 28.08.2013 | just the audio 6 (force of habit and mainly because its a cointoss which mixer we use most of the time) |
Antonetta Wikel 28.08.2013 | Hey Jester, do you just use the audio 6 when playing out and the soundcard from the X1600 when at home? |
Latoria Kavulich 27.08.2013 | |
Latoria Kavulich 11.08.2013 | Thanks mate. Still, would be more than happy with just 1 X1, Soundcard and Mixer |
Harvey Mcintyre 14.07.2013 | Great setup....lots of lovely things to control with... |
Latoria Kavulich 08.07.2013 | Finally picked up a 1 Tb HDD dedicated for music backups. Case is the WD Nomad HardCase |
Latoria Kavulich 27.06.2013 | Here 'tis setup. Just in time for this weekend's show. |
Latoria Kavulich 21.06.2013 | Just ordered me a Pop filter for the show. new mic in a couple weeks |

Kellie Myrum 12.05.2013 | Yeah, I found same little surprise in my Spectra package. |
Latoria Kavulich 12.05.2013 | 1 down, 4 to go. That was a freebie with the Spectra order. |
Kellie Myrum 12.05.2013 | Nice! Love the glow in dark Chroma Cap |

Latoria Kavulich 30.04.2013 | must be gettin' old |
Lilliana Perris 30.04.2013 | Too much Bass? You must be ill mate! |
Latoria Kavulich 29.04.2013 | Update after using the ATHPRO500MK2's for a week or so ... They are so loud and punchy , ie. so much spl that they bounce off the ears ... i have had to adjust the headphone eq's in the mixer utility, bass reduced by 3db to compensate. Regular use, through the laptop etc i can handle fine |
Latoria Kavulich 18.04.2013 | updated with the new headphones |
Latoria Kavulich 17.04.2013 | and a quick vid on the new cans. |
Latoria Kavulich 17.04.2013 | slinkydisc when we play together we have the cdj's there as, and when we hook up with mates we would have the 1200's on the desc as well, it can get pretty crazy the DJM-600 used to be our gig mixer but its been demoted to lounge duty these days lol the space pussy vinyl was my bro's 30th birthday pressie |
Bryon Taglieri 14.04.2013 | Digging your set up it's basically (minus the midi fighters) what I am using but add 1200's for the occasional time control or vinyl session. I like the Simon Posford record in the background in the earlier photo I use to play a lot of his tracks back in the nineties they were always killer just louder and better produced his kicks on a big rig were amazing. |
Random X 12.04.2013 | I'm betting the ATs will have you forget your sennies real quick. |
Latoria Kavulich 12.04.2013 | unboxing and impressions video when the ath-pro500's arrive. R.I.P HD-205's *sniff* |
Latoria Kavulich 18.03.2013 | science in action |

Random X 18.03.2013 | So you'll start out with the blue socks? |
Latoria Kavulich 17.03.2013 | windsocks just turned up for the microphone, will get set up soon and show ya what it all looks like in action |
Latoria Kavulich 17.03.2013 | this one http://community .djranking s.com/showthread.php?t=66916 |
Antoine Jaffray 17.03.2013 | I believe I am about to go to the same set up. I really like what you did here. What mapping do you use on the X1's? If you dont mind. Sweet set up!! |

Judi Sissel 16.03.2013 | My OCD approves of your symmetry. Looks great man! |
Kristofer Krauel 16.03.2013 | Jes, do you still use your 800's much? I've seen a pair on eBay for aus$600. Seems like a decent deal and all ill be using them for is timecode control. |
Latoria Kavulich 15.03.2013 | Tidied the desk up a bit, to make room for the new broadcast setup (just waiting on the windsocks to arrive in the morning) |
