I've always wanted some, but thanks for saving me some money :lol:

They look cheap & nasty stuck under the turntables anyway.

**alsynthe** · 13-07-2005, 03:07 PM

there awful, when ur cuing the whole deck moves!!!! better off with pillows off ur bed!!! haha

**TechMouse** · 13-07-2005, 03:09 PM

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.

**WEZ** · 13-07-2005, 03:13 PM

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 !?

**DJsmallpaul** · 13-07-2005, 03:26 PM

You certainly don't :lol:

**MARKEG** · 13-07-2005, 03:42 PM

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:

**DJsmallpaul** · 13-07-2005, 03:56 PM

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

**WEZ** · 13-07-2005, 04:03 PM

cost money i expect mate , what the music industry is all about £££

at least if they used whoopee cusions you could have a bit of fun with them

:lol:

thankfully the few times ive played out, ive never come across these stupid things

**alsynthe** · 13-07-2005, 04:15 PM

if i did enounter them id accidently pop both of them with a ciggy!!!

**connor** · 13-07-2005, 04:55 PM

a club down thisway uses those cushion things on the decks in the back room

**eyes without a face** · 13-07-2005, 05:03 PM

****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

**alsynthe** · 13-07-2005, 05:09 PM

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

**WEZ** · 13-07-2005, 05:19 PM

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 !

**alsynthe** · 13-07-2005, 05:22 PM

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
