who was this clown? bah who cares..next year no one will be able to buy new tech's anyways.. be happy for being one of the first to embrace great technology. screw what he says. the important is you being happy and loving what u do. do you? that's it forget the external appreciation of changeable people. Think of your happiness and relax. =)
I found on craigslist some guy offering to trade 4 yes 4 techniques plus his vci for a NS7.

Thanks guys for the moral support....I guess i better hit the gym or they'll clown me again... or maybe i can get some Technics stickers and slap them on the side of the NS7 and cover up the NUMARK sign.. I think there was about 8 guys including the one that was doing the talking... at first he seemed interested, just staring at my setup, then he asked me what kind of mixer i was using....When i told him it was a all in one unit, he laughed...He turned around and told his buddys, and next thing you know I was surrounded by jerks saying things like: "I didnt know playskool made turntables".

sounds like a strange little gig... why were they in your face? I had a guy dissin about my vci-300 ONCE then i started scratch and he said 'oh i cant scratch'
you dj skills should say all that needs to be said.
now i have no idea where you skill set is but i will say this when you are arriving with non traditional gear you have to be able to bring it.

I have denon 3700's.... and a vci. I love the MIDI since the VCI has been so good to me.. I even got a macbook to make sure my ns7 will run smoothly since my current computer can barely run itch...
This topic is the only thing holding me back from getting a NS7 and selling the denons.

Don't know what happens in the US but here in Italy it's a "oooh aah" chorus on my NS7, even normal people perceive it as a dramatic step UP compared to CDJs. Same goes with the VCI-300, wich has a very attractive and futuristic colored lights scheme in the dark.

People dont know how to show off anymore and need to come up with ridiculous excuses to put others down. Same with all the fake hip-hop/rappers and other morons only aiming for fame and money. There's a lot of drugs too so when they do them they start to feel powerless (obviously) and that adds to their unnecessary fear of failure hence why they shield with more drugs, constantly seeking more popularity, talking about being rich and how all the girls love them (not true). So yea. They pass this through their music to the masses which in turn look up to them and unfortunately some lost souls will act the same.

some people here in teh US are complaining about bigger government when it is the government that gives us schools that can teach us to be creative and come out of the box. that teaches us science that we can use to solve problems, that gives us clean water if we vote. The private is a lot of times about money and not the people. So then, you have to deal with idiots trying to take your NS7 from you or steal your laptop or even laugh at you (ridiculous) because they don't know better than what they get from other morons that I mentioned before promoting a lower than desirable quality of life.
"I got more than you" "I steal ur girl and your things and leave u dead" "your mother vows at me" "you will never make it" (like i care to make it to where YOU are) "I sell crack" "I sell dope" "Bitch this bitch that" "all I care about is ass" (yea.. ur father too thats why he left ur mother and left u a bastard, or perhaps your son will do to his wife/girl he swears loves to just to ****)

Believe me it's not a U.S. thing. Everybody I come across with my NS7 think it is the coolest DJ kit they've ever seen. Especially when I added the MBP. My last 3 gigs were spent with folks crowded around the NS7 & Mac, and me literally giving a DVS lesson to the masses. The closet thing I've owned that came somewhat close to all this attention the NS7 is getting was when I had a pair of Numark HDXs.

i would still like to hear more about the actual event set up. Sounds like a house party? If you rock the crowd they should not worry about how or what you do it with. So was it the equiptment or the dj they were dissin? I am not trying to offend but i personally have entered arenas i had no business in and got dissed real bad. It just makes you hungry.
to say you want to pack up and quit/sell your gear is part of the issue. You need to up your confidence level. If you are not sure of what you got or can do you need to get sure. You are gonna have gigs where girls yell you such cause you wont play the cha-cha slide on cue. You are gonna have gigs where the manager/owner will tell you to change your music cause you are offending or putting his guest to sleep. You are going to have gigs at bars where the bartender hates you cause you always mess up her tips. djing is not for the thin skinned.

He's probably apart of the technique tea party club. Haters are always hating on something they don't have. Just wait like ten minutes find out what car he's driving and have it towed then announce it to the crowd. Hopefully he drives a Hasbro 4 banger:)

If your gig was at an event where there was no equipment, I'd say I'd rather bring a a 35 lbs unit than lug two turntables and a mixer. My VCI-300 (weighting only at 14 lbs) has essentially replaced all my mobile gigs. My 1210 M5Gs along with the TTM56S strictly stay at home.
Like above posts say. The equipment are just tools. If you got the techniques to mix/scratch/rock a crowd then it doesn't matter if you rock a fischer price record player! :P

If you got the skills to back it up the equipment should not matter. But if you suck with good ass equipment you're gonna get clowned by other people. It's like showing up to the Bball court with brand new $150 Jordans on. You better be balling your ass off or dudes will joke you hard.

If he never saw your equipment and just heard the mix then he would have never known. Haters will be haters. The people without the gig will always wanna be the one with it and will find any reason to give you crap. I love my NS7 and wouldn't trade it for a set of pioneers.

Sold my 37s on ebay two days ago. (blame the NS7 for the crackhead price the winner got away with) going to get an NS7 to replace it moreso for (convienience?). dont let the haters kill your drive whether you are kid capri or dj fisher price. you were the one behind the tables. you should have pointed at a girl and put some music on to make her forget how to hate. i ROCKED a club with two sony belt drive TTs and a couple of odyssey cases full of records.
just keep rocking, you are going to come across certain things for sure as a DJ...
--People requesting songs they showed up too late to hear!!
--DJ groupies (male & female) always talking while your trying to do work
--some kind of equipment malfunction
--haters
if you have ever come across a dj at a club and you find yourself critiquing his set or talent then a little bit of hater was bubbling up deep inside you (unless he killed it!!!)
Just keep on pressing on! FTH!!

Tell him to suhkhhhhheet! Who is going to buy 4 used technics in 2010, ghat chances are you will probably only be able to sell for 250$ a pop! And he wants 4 bills. C'mon Son! Not only does it sound like a bad deal but the average person that owns an NS7 is not trying to use traditional TTs. Hence the ns7. You tell that guy to register on this forum I'll start a thread just so I can roast him for thinking there are humans out there willing to take that shady deal
Dj Bacik
1:51 PM - 17 February, 2010
Not a good deal at all. I have to sell my old Tech's just to get some money back on the NS7. But before I sell them I am having them sonic cleaned and repainted. Hopefully some schmuck will buy them at a higher price because of the paint job.
djchriscruz
2:54 PM - 17 February, 2010
I would take the trade if the 1200's are in good shape. There's a big rumor(check the Serato DJ forum) that 1200's are being discontinued and DJ's are paying top dollar for 1200's right now just so they can have another pair incase theirs break down. You can get probably 1300 out of the 1200's and definetly at least $600 from the VCI.
kraal
4:08 PM - 17 February, 2010
that rumor has been debunked and there is only a discontinuing of the 'older' models they will still be making the new techs. and by the way if if production was stopped it would be awhile before the supply is in low demand

my experience is quite the opposite, i'm guessing its a cultural issue. living in a place that people catalog as "third world" when i pull out my ns7 (there's just 2 people that own this in my country as of now one of them being me) you can tell how amazed other djs get when they see it in action. our dj scene limits to cdjs pretty much and all the djs that i've given a chance to test this baby out are more than satisfied with the product

I never believed the rumor but if you go into the DJ forum mad people are rushing to buy another set at full price.

OMG! i can't believe that... I never thought that you had to worry about what people would think of your SETUP instead of SKILLS. Haters for sure. I guess i will have to be prepared as I plan to use an NS7 for all my patio gigs this summer. Perhaps if someone tries to 'clown' me i will just simply say, "Nah man, i just got fuel injection and nav. You still on that old carbureted ish, huh. I guess you must be broken down tonight or you'd be playin, right?"

hmmm, i've only had my NS7 for a month, the first gig I took it too, everyone wanted to know what it was and how it worked, they all thought i was actually playing 45's?!?
I've never had a club-goer comment on my gig, and if I ever do, i just say..
Me : "Did you pay your cover charge?"
Club Goer : "Yes"
Me "Transaction complete, thank you, come again"
I could care less what they think of my rig.
Now I did get heckled by another DJ once coming out of the booth, who told me that I should be using "industry standard tools" like Techs/SSL or CDJ's. I politely laughed, broke down in about 3 minutes flat, and told him to have a nice time hooking up all those wires.

My favorite response is "ITCH is the new standard, bro. You didn't know?" They just stammer after that.
Who care about "industry standard" anyways. DJs are first and foremost entertainers. Tools are no substitute for skills. I maintain that tools like Seratos products can make bad DJs better, but great DJs can rock crowds with a toaster and a Speak-N-Spell.

ive been in situations like this. nobody really dogging my setup, but dogging what i was playing. to the point where it is just unnecessary. what DO you DO? for starters, dont give a sh!t. at the end of the night, THEIR money is in YOUR pocket. haters are everywhere and they dont like not being in the spotlight or in control, which is exactly what these "stupid" djs are doing. we are taking all the credit and the attention of the night and some people can't handle it so they choose to heckle. if you are ever concerned for your safety though, I would bring some peeps with you to just chill with you behind your decks for support, or tell the venue to beef up security. i wouldnt really go as far as to fight some arse who decided to make fun of your setup. thats bad PR. there is a fine line for a dj when it comes to being a nice guy and an a$$hole. but if you start to show that your feelings are hurt or show you dont like what the crowd is telling you, it will only get worse.
all in all.. take it as experience. move on. dont care.

One DJ at a a catering hall asked me what I use. I told him Itch and the NS7. He told me that I should use Serato instead. I told him it is Serato, why dont you come and look. He gave me a dumb look and walked away.

Thanks guys for the moral support....I guess i better hit the gym or they'll clown me again... or maybe i can get some Technics stickers and slap them on the side of the NS7 and cover up the NUMARK sign.. I think there was about 8 guys including the one that was doing the talking... at first he seemed interested, just staring at my setup, then he asked me what kind of mixer i was using....When i told him it was a all in one unit, he laughed...He turned around and told his buddys, and next thing you know I was surrounded by jerks saying things like: "I didnt know playskool made turntables".yah i get where u would b timid when approached like that, ns7 is the first thing ive gotten since my Mixman DM2 when it came out...

my experience is quite the opposite, i'm guessing its a cultural issue. living in a place that people catalog as "third world" when i pull out my ns7 (there's just 2 people that own this in my country as of now one of them being me) you can tell how amazed other djs get when they see it in action. our dj scene limits to cdjs pretty much and all the djs that i've given a chance to test this baby out are more than satisfied with the productHow is Miami,Florida a third world country?

One of the main reasons I picked up the NS7 is because I had so much digital media. I didn't want to lug around cd's or vinyl... nor could I afford it. The NS7 came, and I have not looked back. The hardware and the technology that comes with doing what we love only helps...
I'm an amateur DJ learning as I go.... but technically minded I've been able to pull off a few sets with great turnouts and response... End of the month will be my 2nd year going to vegas for a 5+ hour set for a private party.... With all my interactions with people I had not really had a bad exp. Everyone wanted to know more about the NS7. I got a sweeet chance last year to let a DJ from Germany spin a little and teach me a thing or two.... He loved it... kept wanted to come back and spin more...... A buddy of mine who is a CD dj, thought the NS7 was awesome when him and I first did a little b-day bash.... Basically... the moral as many have mentioned... There are a$$holes, and there are genuine people out there. Don't let em get you down about yer gear.
Peace, and happy spinning! :)

Last person who had issue with my NS7 got clowned by the three clubs DJs standing by who all use the VC300. In the end "you" have the gig. I don't care if you have a pair of BD10s and a pyramid mixer, if you're rocking the spot then you are doing your job.

Wow what a joke, at the end of the day it doesn't matter what you are spinning with or who you know but what your audience is left with and thinks. I have owned 1200's, CDJ & DVJ's in the past and believe it or not I use the NS7 as my main device with a 27" iMAC. If someone has issues with my not using my Pioneers or Techniques than they don't need to hire me and really don't know anything about my music! The NS7 is a well built piece of equipment and I will be honest when I first purchaed it I had reservations because it was made by Numark and not Denon or Pioneer etc. Nonetheless it has proven ME wrong and has shown me that even NUMARK can make or market a quality, professional piece of equipment. Even at $2000.00 (NS7 with a QUALITY CASE AND extras) its a steal! The new CDJ 2000's are 2k a piece and still they will not give me anything I need that I don't have in Serato and Ableton Live with "The Bridge".

people who laugh at the V7 and other modern controllers are complete idiots who do not think of djing as using innovative technology. Why does one have to use and stay with the old 1200's? ..Does everyone still have to drive old cars? ..move forward in life and take what technology offers..

Just say: Yes, I play with 7", and I can do things that you can´t do with 12".
Good thinking!
Anyway, the v7 and Ns7 always attract people to have a look and ask how it works. They both do look very Pro.
the guys that make comments on it are most of the time (bedroom) DJ's that cannot afford a decent setup and/or aren't good enough to play somewhere else because otherwise they weren't standing next beside you making comments.

on my part i have never had any funny looks whenever i used the vci on open air parties, clubs, friend parties, ie plenty of situations for funny ppl to harass me (i am also not a tall guy with my 1.63),
i wish i was able to say i showed them the truth with my music, amazing dj skills, etc
but as i keep seeing so many "one had in keyboard one hand in pocket" kind of djs that seem to be quite successful and even respected i am not sure, maybe i just been confronted with more permissive ppl (would not bet on it though ;)
the only time it seemed someone was too much curious into what it was using turned out to be someone that tried to buy it from me!
only time i have seen it (vci / itch) being somewhat dismissed in my presence, was in favor of s4 / t2, but that is somewhat expected as those ate the 2 main camps

I believe it to be an insecurity when I see them doing such.
Especially when I see topics like these, generally in the "General DJ Discussion" forum which is made up mostly of Turntable / CDJ users:
serato.com

What I wanted to said is! Is you are using turntable,cdjs, or what ever you using, respect the others and keep your comments to yourself. Why a person have to go and clowned me for using a contoller.

Elitism and Insecurity - The belief that not only are you better than someone else because of what you possess, but that you feel threatened by what they (may) possess.

I have been usng the NS7 since Nov 2010. Everywhere I take it people are in aw when they see it. They are amazed that I'm spinning 45s with no needles. I used TTs for a longtime but the NS7 is less to carry. I went from CDJs to the NS7 to get a viny feel again.

VDJ is what made me go to the digital age of DJing. I don't use it in the club environment because Serato sounds better but it did make it simple to DJ. I have seen a guy play at a party with just a laptop and a mouse (no midi or turntables). He had the party jumping and was mixing pretty good. I see a lot of radio DJs do the same thing. So that proves it is the music not the setup.

Umm, OP is a troll, in case you haven't noticed. "Feel like putting a 'B' right next to the Itch sign"? Playskool, etc. Clearly baiting.

back in the day one of my day job co workers use to rock an Irish bar in Old Town Pasadena with a lunch pale style portable computer and Carrot. I'd always hear someone be weird about it but he always rocked that place.
On top of that In Rosarito at the same time there was a company that made a controller like the Denon 2000f that worked on a computer. Almost all the clubs had it and no one had issues there either.
Hell didn't Tiesto give up his CDJ for the Ableton launch pad or the Akai with Ableton Live?
Who cares what you use.
Can you program your music?
Can you read the crowd?
Do you respect your craft?
make it happen man

I bet he did give up his CDJ after it failed in the middle of Adagio for Strings.

Most of the time that is what they do, try to be your friend. For me those are the unsecured Djs that feel that controllers are taking over and they don't see that technology is taking over faster that they can scratch!
