Dope as always, Ricky! As for the QSCs HRPs were made from 2003-2010 and were replaced by the KW series. As far is the Electric goes. I am an electrician by trade. P usally represents panel, and next digit represents which specific panel. If there's in digit than a number, (such as R-1, R-2) that means there's more 26 panel usally. So in that case, R-1 is one panel, R-2 is the one next to it. And than the #8 represents breaker 8. So P#R-3#13 means Panel R-3 break number 13. Hope this helps

[@LEVIJmusic]

Coach us up on that Rick Web RIZZ🚀😂

[@ArijitChowdhury80]

Hey Rick, been watching your videos since the early days of 2015 and have been part of your entire journey. Still remember the video, you were sitting by the poolside and talking about how weddings work in your area. How to partner up with an existing DJ or a catering company/event company to get started. You yourself started that way. Exceptionally proud to see where you came from and where you reached. God bless you with more. Would be very interested in coaching.

[@DjMilliano]

the light show is sick!!!!!!!!!!!

[@randalriley6900]

I would love love to grow our customer base. Also learn to finance equipment to match our business needs. Marketing for the Midwest DJ!

[@Jtoxic1992]

I’ve been following you since I first started DJing. I love the idea of coaching for DJing and business aspect as well. I’m definitely interested! I’m already in a group with Evolve DJ’s with DJ Ragooza. I think I spelled his name right lol but his group is awesome as well, learned a lot so far but I would definitely love more coaching on the business aspect as well as DJing itself!

[@Brian_m_carranza]

Awesome clean setup man love the moving heads they look awesome

[@zachdjbaysidehigh4769]

Been following for a long time definitely my favorite DJ. I dj in New Orleans La which is a major market. I've been djing 17 years and I'd love if you expanded here demand is really high.

[@djeamonbyrne]

Clearly like before i watch 😊😊

[@DjPositiveP]

Coaching sounds dope! Business side of the dj business sounds great

[@DJRickWeb]

Absolutely i love that subject.

[@DjPositiveP]

@@DJRickWeb yea most djs suck at the business side! I need to create an LLC & figure out taxes since I've been paying djs/assistants

[@pablomiami]

or even Panel "R" or Panel "K"... labeling them is pretty slick, makes it easier t reset a breaker

[@djcoolv4084]

Just started watching your videos and noticed you in NC will love to politic with you I’m in HIGH POINT NC

Another awesome gig log!

[@djelioentertainment]

awesome gig log rick!

[@crisc.4175]

HPR’s is pre-K series and were actually very good boxes for the time. They used RMX amp technology, solid build, and Celestion drivers. They came out around 2005 or 2006 I believe and were eventually replaced by the KW series. They were very heavy though, that HPR122 weighs 60lbs.

[@roymoxley2587]

Yes but the yorkville elite subs and tops put Qsc to shame I owned them cheap china amps inside yorkville amps built in house speakers are from Italy b&c drivers

[@Justu24]

I’ve been following you since you first started in Ohio and I would love to basically learn how to build up the DJ business from the ground up. Funding, marketing, getting leads and all. I’d definitely sign up for classes or a membership.

[@markbfresh]

U def rocked this one! Nice!

[@pablomiami]

depends how the maintenance people at the location labeled it but I would assume PR#1 (Power room 1/Panel room 1) and the other numbers #8 #10 the breakers.... they probably have multiple rooms for breakers... just an idea

[@DJRickWeb]

Great insight

[@queencitysirens8755]

Another dope gig as always! #squad

[@angelacheesbro]

That would be cool I’m trying to start my DJ business

[@FormulaOneLeclerc]

Spaaaaarkzzzzz

[@justinfank5262]

Coaching group would be cool.

[@310socal]

LOOK how much more life 2 moving heads add to the party I see so many DJs with great setups w/uplighting but no moving heads why??

[@DJRickWeb]

Normally its cus they have to get totems too. And totems plus movers is a lot to transport and pretty expensive in comparison to the uplights. And its harder to sell to people

[@erikbritz8095]

the Dj in training was looking at you all shook with the introductions part and i understand why, you most likely have a high standard as you have been at this for years so practicing makes perfect and sadly even people working for us would want to do something their way, now that's understandable but not in context of our work, plus why make things complicated for you by esientially "Throwing shit at the wall and seeing if it sticks" so yeah hope the trainee's say okay cool i'll do what the boss says and enjoy the rest i mean that to me sounds better then freeballing.

[@DJRickWeb]

He aint training at all. No intentions of djing just like the side money

[@erikbritz8095]

@@DJRickWeb Ahh i get it now, was wondering if he was a new guy and your training him here hehe.

[@310socal]

27:00 I still hate tube lights I'd rather see 2 washfx

[@CHIEFMONOBOBO]

Do you ever run the JBL SRX's anymore? I bought those because of you and I love them still! Great video, keep em coming!

[@DJRickWeb]

Yes see newest video

[@chrisralph141]

Shame they don't do decent dj shows in the UK

[@user-yq3xv5em4r]

Hey DJ Rick Web, I am very interested in learning how I can finance my business and start it up, how to pay stuff off, and how to invest as you mentioned. Where do I sign up!!?

[@DJRickWeb]

Coming soon

[@roymoxley2587]

All you need to do is start off slow financially buy a little at a time but spend wisely don’t go cheap then move up that’s what cost time and money. Speakers and lights are priority 1 then your controller and cases for lights .

[@cmmusicfactory9142]

What about the dust that the sparks give off?? Did it get on the carpet??

[@DJRickWeb]

Absolutely. But we brought a dyson vacuum to sweep them up after

[@swiftgrfx]

Hey Rick. Great job on all the vids. Been watching you for quite some time and appreciate all the effort you put in making these. I have a question. The LD Maui you put in the back room, why do you put a delay on it, wouldn’t it feel and sound out of sync if you were sitting back there and watching the speeches going on?

[@DJRickWeb]

The delay is enough that when the sound from the front speakers gets to the back the back speaker is in snyc with that sound plain

[@ArijitChowdhury80]

Rik, how do you calculate the delay for speakers? And also say for a corner loading sub scenario where the tops are a bit distant from the subs in corner, how would you calculate delay on the tops?

[@DJRickWeb]

Any delay software will allow you to input the ft and it calculates the time

[@MarkieB]

I emailed you on two different emails trying to purchase lights, but never heard back from you..

[@joekissfm]

Why doesn’t you homie work the mic…. Or does he?

[@DJRickWeb]

He is just an assistant.

[@exterminatorsoundandlighti9192]

How do you keep from losing your Midi settings if you change USB ports on your laptop? I have ShowXpress and an AKAI APCmini but if I have every button set up and plug into a different USB port it looses all of the setup even though the Midi addresses still show in the ShowXpress software. It won't even pick it up if I plug back into the same USB port so I have to set it all up again from scratch. It is very annoying!

[@DJRickWeb]

Soundswitch doesnt care what usb you plug into

[@exterminatorsoundandlighti9192]

@@DJRickWeb Will it work with ShowXpress?

[@DJRickWeb]

The lights yes.

[@AshtonLevian]

For the people who use Rekordbox, how can we DMX to both lighting s4s and adj mega hex pars. Rekordbox lighting sucks and sound switch isn’t compatible. Open to anything

[@JanvanVlimmeren]

AJD WMX1 for the Americas (Wolfmix W1 for EU, same device just different branding). It's a standalone unit and just amazing feature-wise. I'm ditching Soundswitch for it.

[@djfire116]

Hey Rick where can I find that adapter for the titan tubes microphone stand?

[@DJRickWeb]

amzn.to/3PzaYNf

[@djmarc]

I thought that the female receiver on the bottom of the tubes was an M5 not 1/4"? I just got my pixel tubes and the eye hooks have M6 printed on them. I'm really confused!! I want to mount two on mic stands as well. @@DJRickWeb

[@DJRickWeb]

There 1/4 20 thread

[@djmarc]

@@DJRickWeb thanks! I ended up buying the adapters for my two mic stands and they worked great! Used my 4 Tubes at my last Christmas party and got RAVE reviews! They looked so good!

[@djchemist3097]

What speakers are you using and how people can you these speakers for?

[@bdproductionseventservice3735]

What lightsystem controller ya using?

[@DJRickWeb]

Soundswitch. Control one

[@djenvyone]

How did you paint the tubes white?

[@DJRickWeb]

Krylon metal white gloss spray paint. Just tape the screen and tube paint them up. About 4 coats

[@pabloramirezorta]

You're low on lights on the dance floor. The dance floor is totally dark. Two moving heads are not enough.

[@DJRickWeb]

People dont like bright dancefloors. DJs think there needs to be lights lighting up the dance floor and that is not what human sociology studies will say. People that want to let loose and dance do not want to be in a spotlight

[@pabloramirezorta]

@@DJRickWeb What I mean is where people dance, it was very dark. Two moving heads is very low lighting. You should mount more lights.

[@DJRickWeb]

Thats what i am saying where they dance you dont want a lot of light very little is best

[@roymoxley2587]

I disagree wash lights are a must it looks to dark
