HATE THEM!!!!
GRRRRR!@@!DFGDRTRETT£%T@£%@£$£!$!%!£%
AWFUL, AWFUL THINGS
Why do ppl insist on using them? It's impossible to cue up on them, it makes you feel like that very moment just before you have a stretch!
SOMEONE BAN AIR CUSHIONS!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!
I've always wanted some, but thanks for saving me some money :lol:
They look cheap & nasty stuck under the turntables anyway.
there awful, when ur cuing the whole deck moves!!!! better off with pillows off ur bed!!! haha
Yeah, they have a "DIY" solution to this kind of thing in BluePrint.
It involves 4 cross-sections of drainpipe with elastic bands round 'em.
I keep coming a cropper with it when I get... how shall I say... overenthusiastic...
Sure if I practiced a bit, and didn't get so gung-ho with the decks I'd be fine!
they had them at chibuku when dave clarke was on, he wasnt happy with them either and never attempted any scratchin.
cant be as bad as the B&Q paving slabs that the decks were sat on at lakota on saturday night , a ****ing flea could break wind and it would knock the shite out the tunes !!!!!
sort it out you dum ass's **** sake !!!!
dont try and make a pilot fly a plane with concrete propellors do you !?
You certainly don't :lol:
yeah WHY OH WHY IN GODS NAME do they use those concrete slabs. i mean i'm no ****in stage manager but is it not common sense that it can actually INCREASE the vibrations to decks.
anyway from now on next time i see one of those cusions, they're getting popped. end of :lol: :lol: :lol: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
Use em as frisby's :lol:
when i see the paving slabs im gunna stop the night , make a patio and ivite everyone to sit and have a cool glass of lemonade !
correction LAKOTA DOESNT EVEN DO ICE CUBES !!!!! MY PISS WAS COLDER THAN THE VODDY & RED BULL !!!
WHAT THE **** IS GOING ON WITH THE WORLD OF MUSIC LET ALONE JUST THE WORLD !
AND IM A HUMBLE FAT BRISTOLIAN !
:lol:
Anyone seen the sefour glass platter that was designed by japanese earthquake experts. They stopped producing it now i think due to lack of interest but it was an add on for the sefour X30 deck stand that used similar technologies to sky scrapers in japan (i.e. counterbalances) A series of coils took the brunt of the vibrations while the surface was still solid
cost money i expect mate , what the music industry is all about £££
here ya go £3 each bargain

:doh:
at least if they used whoopee cusions you could have a bit of fun with them :doh: :lol:
thankfully the few times ive played out, ive never come across these stupid things
if i did enounter them id accidently pop both of them with a ciggy!!!
a club down thisway uses those cushion things on the decks in the back room
****in shite they are, they look awful too, ive not used them nor do i intend to, if i turn up to a gig and see those they are getting deflated, simple
Lakota's just a shit venue doesnt matter what they use still horrible place to play in, but i always thought concrete slabs were ok and pretty sturdy to have the decks on... altho a good set of flightcases inbetween helps alot too
concrete slabs are good. the density of the concrete minimises vibrations, hence less jumping, especially in a club enviroment.
the best thing u can use is marble kitchen worktop with an underlay of a high density polystrene but that can be pricey
didnt work in lakota , the slabs were sat on top a long sheet of ply wood , on top of a breeze block booth , every jump of the peeps jutterd the lot !
another good way to do it is to make 2 boxes just bigger then the decks with open tops. then fill these with sand and cover with a hardwood board
