how do i convince my friend who's better than me he gives terrible advice because it contradicts everything better players say

>>18428120
Disagreeing with better players doesn't always mean they're wrong. Just usually. Better to attack the advice directly. What bad advice are they giving.

How much better?
Thanks to how the dunning-kruger effect affects iidx players you get a lot of 7dans who talk like they know anything.
I wouldn't even pay any heed at all to someone's advice (until a really high level) because there really isn't much else to give after you have a proper playstyle and use random.

His advice is probably junk.

tfw you play iidx, sdvx, ddr, and museca but you aren't good at any of them

>>18434108
Good is a relative term. Just play and have fun

>>18434108
it's time to single out the one you like the most

>>18434108
On the bright side, you're probably having more fun than anyone else in this thread.

>>18434161
i have a iidx controller, but sdvx is more fun
ddr is fun, but tiring. and museca doesn't have enough content

>>18434240
Wish you weren't right about museca

But damn when the game is fun it's really fun, pedal songs are universally bangers

I found out that my nearbiest arcade got a Taiko no Tatsujin machine recently. I played a bunch of songs and it was pretty fun, but my hands hurt like hell. Are there any tips to avoid that? I kinda what to keep going once in a while. I have no idea which version the machine is since I don't know Japanese, sorry.

>>18434468
older versions of the game have a prominent ver # on the marquee, but some of the newer ones don't and instead just have a name.

However if you're outside of japan I frankly doubt the machine is anything newer than like 14 unless you're in SEA

How do I git gud faster? I've hit the brickwall of 17s in SDVX and I've been making incredibly little progress for months now.

I feel like I'm getting a better understanding for how charts flow and work now, but some of the patterns just completely fuck me up simply because I don't know how to do them. For instance, I can get alternating C-D notes fairly consistently with my right hand, but I can't hit A-B alternates with my left hand nearly as well. I can't hit alternating doubles consistently as well. I still have trouble with certain 16s too, like Crack Traxxx and croiX for whatever reason, but I can beat the vast majority of them with little effort.

For reference here's all the 17s I've been able to clear.

>>18445348
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17e1bkhxbRQpeuKt3H5DZ07UgoL8XWcytnz0t--fdGPQ/pubhtml#

>>18445756
What does gold wings mean? I'm new to rhythm games and have been playing sdvx exclusively.

You clear all the dan courses at a certain level. In his case he cleared all the 11dan courses I think.

stop being bad and jealous

as soon as you achieve your goal you will realize that all you want is to achieve your next goal. rhythm game players continually look upwards at people better than them and think "god i wish that were me" that's just how it fucking goes.

One TC+ I had to fix simply had a misplaced micro switch. Pop it open, give the switches a wiggle, pull them out and rotate them if you need to. That usually does the trick.

>>18451727
I haven't opened it yet so that may help, but I also don't like how loud everything is.

What level 16 charts do you guys recommend in sdvx. I can pretty much clear 15s but for some reason I still can't clear 16s.

Does the gauge drop faster during later stages in iidx like it does in ddr?

>>18453898
No.

>>18452921
This table >>18445382 has 16s too.

>>18453898

no but gauge drop does take into account total notes in the chart. the gauge doesn't really change except in Dan/expert mode where below 20% it drops slower and recovers faster

IIDX crossover when
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahcKkwf6SDk

>>18454048
>gauge drop does take into account total notes in the chart
Gauge drops the same no matter the note count. Easy and Normal gauges increase at a rate dependent on the total note count.

>the gauge doesn't really change except in Dan/expert mode
This applies to Hard as well.

>where below 20% it drops slower
It's somewhere around 30%.

>and recovers faster
The recovery rate is the same.

>>18452921
Knights of Rondo and DropZ Line are p fun songs and on the easy side of 16s IMO.

>>18454101

they just ported all of the beatstream music to it too, not like this

>>18450410
That's nice and all but where is Black Square aka the best Dj Max?

>>18452921
Blacksphere if you like knobs. It's close to a 17 though.

>>18448826

you joke about this but i always get that nervous kind of sweat when i go to the arcade, it makes me feel really self conscious
i don't even know if that's a normal thing that happens to people

>>18455571
i sweat uncontrollably on the day where i regularly go to hang out with my friends once a week because while i like socializing i also get anxious about it

you might have something similar

the weird part is that i drip sweat all day even if i'm not actually going to see my friends that week

>>18444564
Being good at DDR is more around being able to PFC 15s and up rather than clearing 15s and up

>>18444564
clearing in ddr means jack shit except for like 19s and some 18s. anything below that, someone who's not morbidly obese can just waddle around on the brackets and get mash goods and clear any song.

>>18452921
Error Code and Xepher.

>>18451848
I personally haven’t done anything with mine since I pretty much live alone, but I know there’s some guides out there.

From what I know, the TC* is made of acrylic and reinforced plastic, which gives it very bad reverb issues since the inside is so hollow. I’d suggest trying to find cheap foam or rubber to place inside of it to contain most of the sound.

>>18455703
Not really. You either like underestimating yourselves or like overestimating casuals, who just panoc when they see more than 10 notes on the screen at once and choke.

>>18455953
i don't think you understand dude. in ddr ace, at least, you can quite literally stand with your feet touching all 4 panels, jump up and down/vibrate/whatever rapidly with no regard for the music or the notes, and you won't fail. pretty much any able-bodied person could clear a 15 or 16 this way if you showed them how.

>>18455989
You can't do that on doubles though. You also can't do it if you have small feet.

>>18457651
>You can't do that on doubles though.
nobody was saying you could
>You also can't do it if you have small feet.
yes you can

Is popn harder than IIDX?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0kuWvq1U2k

This looks retarded hard. Or is it because I'm used to IIDX and never played pop'n?

>>18458447
>popn harder than IIDX
singles yes, but iidx doubles is harder than popn

>>18458471
So it all comes down to the amount of buttons?

>>18458741
nah popn buttons are way harder to hit than iidx buttons though, at least with any kind of density

>>18458447
This looks so fun. I need to dedicate more time to pop'n

>>18458770

just because they're bigger doesn't make them harder to hit, you can do jacks and stuff on them easily
unless you mean harder to hit as in certain chords

>>18455571
>>18455632

Bring a hand towel with you. It’s one of the most useful things you can bring with you to an arcade, no matter what rhythm game you play.

You can fold it up and carry it with you, lay it on your shoulder, etc. You can wipe your hands/forehead, and if you need to you can go to the restroom and wipe your pits/back/chest, should they get sweaty.

>>18455225
The next DLC pack is Technika, after Technika is Black Square.

anyone else forget to blink during hard segments?

>>18458447
49s are always hard. Any song with more than 1537 notes in pop'n has a lifebar that's much tougher than normal. Think 50 combos for a single block of your lifebar.

>>18463786
Reminds me of my friends whose timing got fucked when going back to IIDX from Djmax respect.

>>18464458
The future of games shouldn't be "muh graphics".
They should focus on performance and your health.

Have future consoles/PCs compatible with mentally controlled cybernetic arms so your actual arms don't get fucked up from playing too much. Not good with rhythm games since you lose that feedback but it's nice for more casual gaming.

>>18452921

For easy 16s I recommend Get Back Here, Beyond the Sandstorm and Oriental Blossom. Archive::zip is also relatively easy, though maybe not as much as the previous two songs?

>>18464472
respect is a lot earlier than iidx especially with the sinobuz -> cb latency reduction

>>18464632

>>18464806
I don't understand why people are so excited about this. I'm sure it helps some, but you were already able to get much lower latency than AC just by making sure your W7 setup wasn't shit and you had things like triple buffering disabled.

I'm just glad that AC finally doesn't suck ass anymore.

>>18465066
>why are people excited over the game being improved, even if it's just slightly?

Gee, idk.

>>18465066
this has nothing to do with what you're talking about, it's an audio latency fix thanks to changing the audio backend

perhaps you just hate fun

>>18465091
>>18465102
>this has nothing to do with what you're talking about
There are many setup variances that I've encountered that contribute much more to audio latency than the audio interface being used by the software, including frame buffering that also buffered prerendered audio for some reason, slow USB polling rates, or whatever else.

>perhaps you just hate fun
I do. I'm just bitter that I spent years complaining that AC was so horrible compared to CS while being told that there was nothing wrong with it and to get good, and now suddenly everyone cares about slightly reducing the audio latency on their inaccurate garbage home setups.

>>18465191
you have no idea what you're talking about, none of these things affect audio, you're talking about video latency and input latency respectively

why cant i track jacks with my eyes in iidx

>>18465212
>none of these things affect audio
They do.

>video latency
Depending on implementation, video buffering will also buffer audio in an attempt to keep the two in sync.

>input latency
Input latency contributes directly to audio latency as perceived by the user.

>>18465281

i just try to count how many notes there are and then hit that many times, works for most quick jacks
stuff like the beginning of night sky can hard for me though, but you can practice to get a rhythm

>>18465281
https://the-japari.tumblr.com/post/166760567060/horizontal-and-vertical-reading

you've gotta try horizontal reading

otherwise >>18450389 lol

>>18465281
i don't really "read" jacks as much as i read standard note patterns. it's more of a # of jacks per key. you can usually feel the timing based on the music

>>18465301
>depending on implementation
here's your problem, before cb iidx used directsound and did not framesync audio buffers, that shit is hardcoded based off if the initial timebase calc

You cannot synchronize a circular audio buffer with screen vsync cheaply, especially because they're on their own independent clocks. XAudio2 makes this a lot easier but synchronization is still blocking and expensive. This is why you can experience drift in LDJ.

WASAPI doesn't really fix this but it's generally a lot faster so people have been comparing cb to twinkle timing, and for good reason. Though occaisonally you get buffer underruns on some samples lol.

In any case not sure why you're so buttmad, AC accurate is the only thing that has ever mattered, this is simply backporting the cb audio backend to older LDJ so the timing feels somewhat similar.

>>18465521
>AC accurate is the only thing that has ever mattered

>so the timing feels somewhat similar

w

>>18465676
look I'm not going to defend dao/arcin board "arcade accuracy" that's a whole other can of worms

my point is that you could feasibly use IO2 with WES7/hypersonik and it would play the same as CB
can't use older IO (C02/D01) on win7 because the FX1 has no win7 drivers and is usb1

but that's besides the point, you should strive to have your setup as arcade accurate as reasonably feasible so that you don't have performance degradation going back/forth

>>18464806
>>18465066
autism aside it "feels better" or whatever, keysounds are now more inherently close to keypresses which is satisfying from a gameplay perspective

who gives a fuck about the technical bullshit it's more fun to play this way

>>18465191
I bet you're one of those fags that say only scores from arcades matter lmao.

>>18465924
not him but they are in fact the only ones that matter :^)

>>18465924
if you think that anyone cares about TauTiming scores as much as they care about scores performed on ac or on untouched home setups, maybe you are the fag

>>18466137
no home setups are bad too my nigga

>>18466127
>>18466137
This argument sounds like a defensive mechanism to be honest. Like some 3rd worlder beat you with his shitty dao at home and you come up with "whoa there, t-that didn't count..."

A guy who HC a 12 with a AA at home suddenly won't shit himself playing at an actual arcade, right?

>>18426068
off topic but want a fast answer.
japanese variety show where 4 guys cook strange stuff and vote.
pls and thank you.

>>18464806
This is literally cheating. My scores improved tremendously the moment I planted the dll on my folder.

Thanks Tau

>>18465521
I don't have any hard evidence, but I could swear I've encountered people's home setups buffering audio along with video, since I turned it off triple buffering and immediately noticed both video and audio latency reduction.

>Though occaisonally you get buffer underruns on some samples lol.
I hope they find a way to fix this on AC. A lot of the time it doesn't matter, but the constant popping on piano solos is pretty annoying.

>In any case not sure why you're so buttmad, AC accurate is the only thing that has ever mattered
This is exactly what I'm buttmad about. AC accuracy isn't what always mattered, based on the people I've interacted with over the years. People would say that PC isn't worth anything and arcade is all that matters, even though XP AC had a fuckton of problems. People then spent a lot of effort creating setups that actually ended up with lower latency than AC and turntables that are more responsive than AC, all while others were replacing their IIDX cabinet monitors with laggy garbage. I have no idea what actually "mattered" to people.

People with setups that already have lower latency than AC are going crazy over further improvements under the guise of wanting arcade accuracy, while other people have setups with so many other problems compared to the improvements that Hypersonik provides and just don't know it. Please, pursue the best experience you can achieve, but attack the big problems first, and don't tell me it's all in the name of AC accuracy. Sinobuz is "meant" to have audio latency, if you want an arcade accurate experience, right?

tl;dr I'm gay and irrationally angry about people having fun, yes.

>>18465924
>>18466127
>>18466137
Post scores.

>>18466324
If your home setup is bad, it's your fault. Good home setups have been and will continue to be objectively better than AC.

>>18447063
Depends how much you play, if you tryhard at the game and have been playing for a decent amount of time you should be able to get kaiden pretty easily. (most people at least)
You should look up to the people better than you, not the masses that are worse than you obviously.

>>18467225
what if i don't want to tryhard

what if i just want to enjoy playing the game and when it is no longer enjoyable i put it down for a bit

>>18467261
Well sure, but you should understand then that people who tryhard have different standards from yourself.

i've been practicing mass hyper charts for weeks and all i end up with every time is a sore wrist and a tickled anus. (not to mention the B or A score)

>>18467440
Don't be embarrassed about the As, just Bs.

One day they'll become AAs. And if your wrists get sore, you're doing it wrong.

>>18467010

yeah all your sperging out just makes you sound like someone that doesn't have access to a proper cab to play and is really butthurt about it

>>18465924

>he thinks his ainsows scores are valid

>>18467600
still can't figure out how to survive prolonged scratching without tensing up my arm. pretty sure it's a practice more thing because i had that problem (and experienced pain) with basic chords as an absolute beginner, but it's been frustrating.

>>18468388
Tensing up is ultimately a reading problem

>>18468190
It's the opposite. My intimate access to cabinets is why I knew how bad they were and why anyone striving for an "arcade accurate" setup prior to Cannon Ballers was either an idiot or a liar.

>>18464493

>>18468275
Reminder that Ameto is a loli BBA

>Insert coins

>>18468590
I understand the point you're making, it's just a stupid one.
I'm pretty obvious why some people would think arcade scores have more validity than scores played on hacked data played with some riced out controller

>>18470751
I don't think I ever brought up score validity on AC versus PC, or if I did, it wasn't the core of any of my arguments. But that's ok, it's incoherent rambling and I don't know what point I'm making either.

Of course the score on the official machine is more valid than the ones on PC with cracked software, but that is irrelevant when it comes to player skill.

Sounds like more pointless elitism to me.

>>18470854
Yeah i'm sure like 6 different people have replied at this point

Not that anyone cares about Reflec Beat, but the timing window in Reflesia is fucking huge. It feels like the Perfect window in Pump It Up.

is there a point in even trying for omega dimension songs if you are not good enough to unlock the mxm chart?

>>18473681
You can unlock the exh chart to drop the mxm's guage level from 3 to 1.

game's dead whocares
got pulled from all the taito station locations this week

>>18474028
It's probably because the game just turns into a clusterfuck past level 12. And other games are far more casual friendly.

>>18474160
its because konami butchered the shit out of the game with reflesia lmao they removed like almost all songs, made the timing window less strict and tried to add chunithm gimmicks that don't fit in the game. removing all the songs killed off all the hardcore playerbase's motivation to continue due to all their scores being wiped

went quickly from top earning bemani game to dead because of that, volzza 2 was top earner paseli game but reflesia is at the point where it's going to get canned in a few months at most.

>>18474160
no as far as I know before reflesia game was a top earner but had a lot of debt packed into massive licensing fees, which reflesia understandably dropped

is it possible to translate +/- offset in ac to milliseconds

>>18474160
>>18474172
You can disable the rival's notes. Also you need to grind skill points to be able to play harder songs on your 1st and 2nd stages which is retarded.

Thanks a bunch

My pinky is numb from playing too much IIDX. Is this carpal? Doesn't hurt. It's just numb.

does gitadora playing like guitar hero, like can i hold down two buttons and strum or can i only press one button at time

>>18475824
Yes you can hold, it's not one press per note.

>>18476305
He’s asking if you can play chords and strum the as long as the higher note is in effect, which, no. You cannot.

Gitadora plays like uncomfortable, clunky unfun garbage. Hit windows aren’t even the problem.

Is there a comprehensive list of IIDX scratch charts anywhere?

Dj Mass hypers I think

>>18478943
the chase hyper and rebounce hyper are the easiest scratch 10s. bsb isnt bad either but its tougher on the scratching. snake stick is quite hard. hella deep is a good scratch chart and so is bass 2 bass. checking you out hyper is good practice as well. all of these are fun as shit

caterpillar is a fun song

People who think that either clearing or timing is superior than the other one and not just personal preference are players who will never become good at the game.

>decide to try 9s
what the fuck kind of difficulty curve is this

>>18480125
There are easy and hard 9s. This also applies to anything higher.

Try Takaramono [a]. It's a song I use to test offsets.

>>18477469
Try fly above [a]. Everyone's favorite score attack song.

Is Stepmania a good cardio workout? :s

Steel Edge ain't a 12.

You see, every 12 I tried wrecked my shit but I only failed steel edge because I choked with the final HCN. My gauge was full the entire song.

>>18489005
it's a 12

the easiest 12s are defined by 11-level difficulty combined with a few hell measures sprinkled in here and there, usually at the end. like scream squad, or one or eight.

they're rated by nc difficulty. you didn't clear it, so you still got your shit wrecked.

>>18489048
I must ask as someone who doesn’t play IIDX, how the absolute hell do you define 11s from 12s, they both look like clusterfucks to me.

And I’m almost infDan on SDVX.

>>18489314
11s are like the upper limit for musical charts, and they give you some breaks. 12s start charting the tiniest little sounds, don't give you a break, and fuck you up with bullshit endings, more or less.

>>18489048
Steel Edge has a piss easy ending with HCNs. It's by no means a 12.

>>18489314
11s is where there's still some fun left.
12s have no common characteristics between each other except for one: none of them have any fun left in them.

want to keep lights so no jpac/ghettio

>>18489314

there's a quite clear difference between them you can feel when you get that far. theres maybe a dozen 12s that "feel like 11s" and the rest vary from "yea thats a 12" to "ow my hands". once you can handle playing a deep selection of 12s even the hardest 11s feel quite easy by comparison, even flower or vallis neria, and it's only those top tier 11s (of which there are few) that will challenge your stamina but just about all of the 12s (excluding scream squad etc) really take alot of stamina. being able to handle that density and speed without your fingers slowing down is what differentiates being a 12s player from being an 11s player who can clear a couple 12s some of the time

>>18489811
I don't know why, but it's always disheartening when people gut legitimate, working machines to make their Stepmania monstrosities. Why not use a Minimaid instead.

>>18489811
p2io doesn't have an sm driver yet but it would be totally feasible, it's a pretty good io desu

Has anyone tried or gotten the Hori PS4 Taiko drum working on Windows? If this works with Taikojiro that'd be pretty good.

>>18489383
Keep in mind that most overjoy players play with keyboard, not ASC.

>>18492008
How do they do scratches? It's like jackhammers on your pinky.

just werks as a directinput controller

Jesus christ, this chart makes no fucking sense. I mean even before I started playing, I knew this would mostly come down to personal strengths and weaknesses, but I didn't that it'd be THAT far off. I can get 970's on Max Burning and 950's on snow storm euphoria, but I can't even effective clear Double Universe or AA to save my life. 90% of this is completely wrong for me past F and E tier.

>>18493514
>Max Burning and snow storm euphoria

Seems like you're better with keys than lasers. Do songs like #fairyjoke or The setting sun wrecks you?

>>18489345
steel edge is a (low) 12 in normal clear difficulty. if you legitimately think it isn't, you're probably just too good to have a relevant opinion on how hard it is to clear easy 12-high 11 level charts.

>>18493622
The opposite. I'm terrible at buttons focused charts, but somewhat okay at mixed laser/buttons charts. I have never played #fairyjoke, but I have 970's on both The Setting Sun and Fairy Dancing in Lake or whatever it's called. Here I've tried marking some on the picture.

Green is either completely smooth sailing or just comfortable worst at worst.
Orange is mediocre effective clear and/or quite problematic tier.
Red is fucking impossible, pure button mashing tier.

It feels like it's all over the place with this chart, I don't know.

How do people handle the bpm change in Checking You Out SPA usually? Is it by changing the GN during the song or some other trick?

>>18493815
Should've read the thread. That looks a lot more promising, thanks anon.

>>18493823
I think I have. It was quite hard iirc.

A 12 is a 12. You can't say it's a partial 12.

>>18493840
Hold start a d do a single scratch when it speeds up. Your GN will reset to the originak value fro before.

Don't know how oldschool players did it.

I ex cleared daiuchuu last month and now I can't even clear it

>>18493704
>you're probably just too good
Not at all. I have pretty much the same experience as the original poster. Can't do other 12s to save my life, but I barely dropped gauge on Steel Edge and even AA'd it in the next couple plays.
Could be that I'm just weird, but I struggle way more with lots of 11s than I do with Steel Edge.

dolce fcs it by double tapping start and using a different speed

>>18493912
ok so you're exceptionally good at rolls/cns. innocent walls [h] is the only 12 i can hc or aa, i can't even clear ssc, but obviously that's just me being an outlier, i don't legit think it's an 11

>the section in hella deep's slowdown where you have to hit scr + a key like three times and then on the fourth there's no key so you can effortlessly hit start and fhs

beautiful charting thank you based konami

>>18494148
Interesting. I usually only pay attention to my weaknesses, but I suppose I don't really have too much trouble with scales/rolls.
I can't do SSC either though. The only other 12s I have under my belt are Innocent Walls, sakura storm, A, and snow storm with NCs.

Stepmania is the best sim to play both of these games.

Hard pads aren't all metal and they're not necessary at all.
Just begin with a cheap soft pad then when it's not good enough either buy a hard pad or a pad with foam insert.

>>18494901

are there any other 10s that play like dynamite hyper

>>18495102
not quite, the simple scratches + dense notes is honestly more of an 11s thing

any tips for passing mare nectaris [a]? i cant do the ending

>>18494969

not that guy, but what are the best foam pads right now?
anything less than 100$? i'm looking to see if i want to pursue playing dance games before investing into an impulse pad

Steel Edge should probably be an 11. The nonran chart is a complete cakewalk, and the HCNs at the end only serve to give you a fuckton of gauge. I know people that can pass it even though they haven't passed like half of the 11s.

>>18495283
I found it easier to HC, but it's pretty dumb no matter what. I don't think there is any trick other than hitting enough of the buttons.

so many 12s seem really fun, i want to get there

Practice delay charts in bms. Like Eternal drain delaymaster, cynic another etc.

So I played SDVX on kshoot since I wasn't able to play on a real cab and kinda suffered with dials, but now I've been able to play on a real cab the dials feel really awkward and I've kinda stopped playing because it feels frustrating to fail 13/14s because I'm a dial monkey.

>>18496708
kshoot knobs are way easy yeah

>>18496783
I just feel like kshoot adjusted me to being fine with moving the dial fast for quick shoots, whilst on AC I have to be slower about it or it feels like it just doesn't register.

Also any chart recommendations around 13 so I can stop playing like a monkey on dials?

>>18496808
Not slower, you have to be on point with the judge line. There's just a lot of leeway on KSM and you got used to that.

>>18495367
I use a chinese 12$ pad from ebay
It's pretty shit, but it works, and if you tape it to a piece of plywood it doesn't move as much. If you're completely new to ddr/stepmania, maybe consider getting one and using it till you can decide whether to actually use money on dance games.

>>18497040
Pretty sure he's talking about moving the knob too fast. AC slams don't register if you move it too quickly. If you have it downloaded, try using a really high sensitivity.

>>18493881
>Hold start a d do a single scratch when it speeds up. Your GN will reset to the originak value fro before.

I forgot how to scratch. Used to have the highest scores on scratching songs among all my rivals and not only bave they all surpassed me but I can't clear them anymore.

>>18497385
Yeah FHS kind of has a delay to it so you'll either have to memorize the first measure directly after the speedchange or do what dolce does and remove the lanecover

whats different about your setup? is the cab bad? it might be. cab turntables are supposed to respond sensitively but most of em don't.

do you play sitting down or some weird bullshit like that? different size monitor? different key weights?

>>18504882
i play sitting down with my 60/50 setup and 23" monitor. cabs are ERM

still, i don't understand how these differences can cause me to get raped this badly

>>18504923
>sitting down
>23" monitor

there's your problem. get a standing setup with a monitor that's at least like mid-30 inches in size ideally 40" like ac or you're gonna keep having trouble with one or the other

>>18504929
for example my setup has a 32" monitor and i can play standing up and its approximately ac height but i still can't read density nearly as well as i can on the giant ac monitors

>>18504923
The ERM cabs have a lighter setup than what you're using, but the difference is slight. Also if you're using the left cab, that monitor is fucked, it has burn in. The monitor on that one is also unofficial, it's slightly larger than the right cab. Only use it if you're p1 cause the turntable on the right cab is really hard to move.
what's your dj name

Wait so playing sitting down fucks you up?
