Gone are the days when DJing meant hauling heavy record crates and vinyl turntables around to events. With digital technology, mobile DJ booths have become a breeze to transport and set up. The few pieces of gear you need can easily fit into a small bag. Add a stand to that and you can set up your gear pretty much anywhere that you can fit a small desk. You don't even need to worry about spilled drinks anymore since your gear is nicely set up in a tight unit. Perfect for partying!

Unpack your laptop, controller, headphones and cables from your flight case or padded bag.

Unfold your DJ stand.

3

Place your controller and laptop on top of the stand.

Plug your power cables into the surge protector. Connect your audio cables from the laptop to the controller and the controller into the main house mixer. Plug in your headphones and turn everything on.

Tips & Warnings

To promote yourself better, consider getting a banner printed out on a heavy-duty nylon fabric with your name/logo and website. Hang that banner from your DJ stand with string or twist ties.

If you are concerned about your equipment getting damaged by power imbalances, consider using a power conditioner instead of a surge protector. These devices regulate voltage and suppress noise in the electrical signal.
