Fantastic Grooves on LifeLineHD.com October 1, 2015

Here's last nights broadcast for you to vibe too.  A lot of classic material in there fused with some newness and some unexpected joints.  I hope you enjoy!

 

It's A Feeling Pre-Party Mix with DJ's Taz and Still One

Last week, I had the pleasure of hanging out with some really cool cats. I've spun at the It's A Feeling Party at The Village Lantern once before these guys made me feel right at home. Not to mention, spinning for some serious B-Boys & B-Girls was off the hook.

This time, we decided to get together before the party for some Pre-Party shenanigans at DJ Taz's crib.  Check out the mix as we explored some classic and new material.  And make sure you check out the party every other Friday at The Village Lantern #ItsAFeeling and my radio show every Thursday night 10PM EST #LifeLineHD #FantasticGrooves.

Summer's over... Fall is Here!

As we approach the Fall solstice, we say goodbye to the dog days of summer but that doesn't mean that the fun is over.  As some of you know, I was holding it down at Otto's on Fifth Avenue up until the end of the summer.  It was a lot of fun but all good things come to an end.  Special shout out to Mike Brown and the crew over there for letting me play my eclectic style of Funk, Soul, R&B, Hip-Hop, Rock, Jazz and Latin.

During that time, I joined the LifeLineHD.com crew broadcasting on Thursday Nights from 10pm EST to Midnite.  That is still going on and has become a more progressive work.  This past week's show was done from Bryant Park and I'll be finding even fresher locations around the city to do the same so make sure you tune in every Thursday night either on the website or the TuneIn app.  Just look for LifeLine Radio.  I'll make sure I post links here when the show is about to start.




Coming up this Friday, I'll be back at the Village Lantern with the It's A Feeling crew.  Rocking out alongsid DJ Taz.  This party is dope.  B-Boys and B-Girls fill the floor so if you like to dance, make sure you come through.  The party starts at 10PM and it's free B4 11, $5 after (Free Drink Ticket).  21 & Over.

I hope to see you soon and make sure you subscribe to my blog and other pages.

Some technical tips for Serato.

Recently I've come across a few issues using Rane SL boxes with my computer and other peoples.  I had an issue one time where I couldn't get Serato to actually start, not knowing that the SL1 box I was connected to was a USB 1.0 device which (because of the specs of a Core I series computer) is incompatible with my machine.  Imagine showing up to a gig and not being able to perform because you can't figure out a "simple" hardware issue.

Luckily, I also use Traktor and a controller so I wasn't left completely in the lurch.  After I got home, I got online, determined to solve this problem.  I searched forums and tech guides and eventually found out that USB 1.0 devices will not work properly on Core I series computers with USB 2.0 or higher specs.  This is why the SL1 was discontinued.

Continuing to research, I finally discovered a solution (and a simple one at that) to the problem.  A USB 2.0 hub will allow the SL1 to be read by the computer.  I haven't had the issue since.

Another thing I discovered is that Serato should always be installed and run in Administrative mode.  The program takes priority over the audio system, reading and writing to the hard drive (file permissions come into play here), a certain amount of memory and the processor.  Another issue that this will help resolve is driver installation and sound card recognition.  Rane SL boxes will not start up unless the drivers have been installed with elevated privileges and the software must be installed or started the same way in order for them to work properly.  Installing the software in this way will avoid any issues but if you have already installed the software as a user then simply start the software in Administrative mode and the issues will  be resolved.

These 2 tips have helped me get up and running with minimal effort and I haven't had issues since I adopted these techniques.  I hope it helps you... Peace.
