UDG DIGI WALLET

Picking carrying cases and other protective gear for your DJ equipment can often be harder than deciding on the gear itself.  The problem is compounded when you consider the fact that fabrics and other types of soft gear are harder to resell at their original value, once used.  This isn’t the same for hardened cases and flight cases, as these will take damage and still protect as they are meant to.  The trouble with soft protective gear is twofold.  For one, you need to find gear with the right set of compartments, and no two DJs will have the same needs.  It may be the case that you even carry tools to fix objects, rather than just the gear itself. The other problem is accessibility.  Any old backpack will do fine, so long as your gear is tucked inside of it neatly – but not every backpack grants you the access to your gear quickly.  When setup time is limited, organization pays off and is almost a sign of professionalism as well.  It’s very impressive when you see a DJ with a decent carrying case for his or her turntable needles.  The point is that the gear must help your organize rather than cram. http://djmag.com/content/udg-digi-wallet

NAMM 2014: Decksaver Pro and Decksaver LE

Many DJs have no problem buying the most expensive gear out there, and they also have no problem hauling it around to each gig they attend.  The level of security involved in the transportation of each type of gear will vary based on how valuable and moveable it is.  Turntables are not the most expensive piece in the entire setup, but they are one of the most fragile.  Any kind of drop can permanently ruin then beyond a cost effective repair.  Also, take a look at the cost of a pair of needles and you’ll see why most of us go through great lengths to keep them nice. While many DJs fail to actually buy insurance for their gear – the next best insurance policy involves buying cases and protective gear.  This can be costly upfront, but the effects are noticeable.  Instead of breaking gear and then getting money back for it, you simply don’t break the gear at all.  It makes things simpler once you have it injected into your routine of packing and unpacking.  Decksavers are an idea that has grown into something unique for each product – and something that every DJ probably needs but does not realize it. http://djworx.com/namm-2014-decksaver-pro-decksaver-le/

UDG Ultimate small and large DIGI Wallets

When DJs first started getting gigs and found new ways to make money from their hobbies, their problem had nothing to do with getting their gear to the gig.  They were more concerned with how well their performance would go.  Add to that the fact that their gear wasn’t as sophisticated as it was today – and you’ll understand why looking stylish came second to performing well.  In those days, carrying equipment and cases didn’t even exist in the way they do today.  A single DJ could make 20 trips to his car in order to haul out his records and mixing gear. Today, there is much less gear that needs to be loaded and hauled into a gig.  The gear is also much lighter (electronic MIDI controlled gear) – so much of it can be carried in one trip rather than many.  But since DJs have become more mobile than ever, cases to carry their gear in actually becomes pretty important.  UDG is among the top contenders who are producing gear for just about everything.  You little Novation Dicer might be small, but it certainly deserves to arrive at its destination in style, without the possibility of it being dropped or damaged on the way to the show.  http://djworx.com/review-udg-ultimate-digi-wallets/#.Uw_IXfldW1A

DIGI Hardcase Small

Besides the actual technology that has changed for musicians and DJs, the DJing world is unique when compared again classical instruments, since the size of an instrument really has little to do with how it sounds in this case.  The reasons for this are very clear and do not require much explanation.  A larger brass instrument is going to create a lower sound or at least have the capability to produce such low sounds.  In contrast, a piccolo is going to be limited to the higher ranges of notes – and is therefore designed for music that will showcase its size. DJing gear does not follow this rule – but there is however one rule that comes with size.  The smaller a piece of equipment is, the more valuable it seems to be.  Needles on records are an easy example of this one.  They are fragile, expensive, and of course, necessary to use a turntable at all.  Earbuds also come in a small size and because they are so small, they are often very easy to misplace.  It makes sense that many would go out of their way to protect these small pieces, and a dedicated case is a surefire way to make it work. http://djworx.com/review-udg-creator-digi-hardcase-small/#.Uw_PlfldW1A

Focus On The DJ/EDM-Related Categories In 2011 Grammy Award By DJ Cases

Focus on the DJ/EDM-related categories in 2011 Grammy Award by DJ Cases. The 2011 Grammy Award nominations are out and, of course, we quickly focus on the DJ/EDM-related categories. The big story for DJ culture? That’s easy—it’s Skrillex.

  EDM’s breakout artist of Turntable Cases—aka Sonny Moore, age 23—was nominated for five Grammy Awards.

  While that development seems to have fostered plenty of digital debate in the cyberworld—Facebook, for example, is abuzz with DJ Video Cases—we think it’s all bunk. Congrats, Sonny, you deserve it. We just hope we get more than a glimpse of you on CBS’ 54th Grammy Award broadcast the evening of February 12.
