Thank you for all your replies!

I say ‘SYNC’ is not cheating, because, as Terry_42 would agree with me (referencing the post he had made to me on another thread) the SYNC button is just a tool. The SYNC button is useless to a DJ who can’t properly mix or beat-match. One little ‘SYNC’ button cannot make anybody a DJ. If this was true, I should be able to find a stranger on the street who has never DJ’d before, introduce them to the sync button, and they will be awesome DJ’s (which would never happen).

Besides, the SYNC button never properly lines up beats, anyways. I use the SYNC just to quickly get them to the same BPM if I’m in a rush to provide for a smooth transition. But I use cue points, scratching and my ears to line up beats.

Get the crowd to sing along with you, its always work best for me to build up energy, ya know, for example, I spinned Titanium, right before the lyric “I am titanium…!” I lower down my volume, and I screamed the lyric and usually get the crowd to do the same too, good times !

I usually do that with “Get Low” or “Up In Here (Party)”.

I always recommend the ADJ Revo III or IV as they have an immense angle, so even with a single unit you can flow a big dancefloor and if you are not yet using DMX, the standalone modes of the Revo series are outstanding.

If you have that added you will be a long way.
Next step would be to add 1-2 moving heads with RGB, like the ADJ InnoColorBeam series and a fog machine.

After you have all that would be the earliest I would look into lasers. As lasers I feel are lights that you cannot run all the time. They should be a “Wow” effect and if you leave them on all night, you have nothing to forward your bangers with. I dislike people who use lasers to fill the dancefloor with light, that is what moonflowers (like the Revo) are for. I think laser usage should be low over a set. However when you are ready the galaxian 3d is a good choice.

Thanks for the reply.

I can just can’t stand all those annoying dots. I can’t stand dots. Dots are so annoying. Same goes with small little rectangles everywhere. I think it’s just kind of tacky and 70’s looking.

What are some of my other options? Please no dots everywhere. I don’t understand why there can’t be just some affordable, sub-$150.00 scanners with basic scanning capabilities and sound active features. There’s no reason for it!

I asked this question one time to some guy and he had some stupid reply like “moon-flower scanners are cheaper because everybody has moon-flower effects” oh really? As opposed to basic scanners with just straight beams of light? There are more people who own LED Par Cans and other wash lights than moon-flower lights.

There’s no reason scanners with basic light beams can’t be more affordable!!!!

What are my other options besides dots?

Most interesting! Thank you.

LMFAO.
