Does my coffin need a fan?

So when I bought my back up cdj I bought the flight case to go with it and it had a fan in it to keep the cdj cool. Just had me start thinking about my 57 being couped up all tight in the coffin? Has there been issues of overheating or no air circulation? For that matter my technics too?

the cdj would probably need the fan to keep the belly cool while it's in case. 57 and turntables def won't need any of that ish. only situation is direct sunlight in a super hot place... but get under some shade first; not a fan.

cool... Kinda figured so, but did not know for sure. Better safe than sorry...

although if you read the manual that comes with the 57, it says not to block any of the vent holes. Im pretty sure that's why they have the pelican case for it because you have to pull it out of the case to use it. i've never had any problems with using it in a flight case, but if you're using effects a lot, the effects processor has to get pretty hot in there.

Good to know... The 57 is super tight in the coffin.
