0:00 I know, that's me old man, isn't it?

I know, that's me old man, isn't it? Ladies and gentlemen, we're at BPM show as you know, and I am on the DJ stand. We've got a very good friend of mine, Paul, and you are quite an intelligent and clever man because you make these, don't you? Yeah, yeah, we make them all in-house. I'm a manufacturing unit in the southeast, and yeah, we're set up to... Make all this in-house. In the UK. These are made, built by you, in the UK. Absolutely. On the TV screen I believe we've got the set up. Some strange bloke, he looks a bit like your brother. And this is the set up of the framework, the internal part of the stand itself. Now you were telling me that a rough time setup is about five minutes. I shot this morning and the total time to set it up was literally two seconds over five minutes. I couldn't quite get that five minute mark, but yeah, I was quite happy with that. It's only the second time I've set this particular one up. So we've got a unit stand made in the UK by your company that is what I can describe as very beautiful.

1:54 Front, now that to me looks

It is. Now, I'm going to move the camera away from there now because we've got a good idea of how it's set up. And here is the stand itself set up. So I've noticed you've got some LEDs down there. Yeah, we've got two Chauvet color rails standing there which, I'll put those in. I love the chase patterns that they give you on that. So yeah, they work really well. A look from the back, if we look at the front, now that to me looks exceedingly professional and I can see that working really well in a wedding sort of environment. It looks... Why we've suspended the front facade, if you like, off of the mainframe is to let all this light wash all the way up to the top. What we've seen got no barriers. There's no sweet spots necessarily, a lot of stats.

3:16 Yeah, RMX, a lot of guys have 2000s and an RMX or MIDI controller

Yes, like it. And then also we've got a couple of platforms here as well, so you can put moving heads, small fixtures and things on there. Very, very good. And do you have a rough idea of price? Yep, £685 plus shipping at the moment. Okay. And that's for the front facade, the frame, two shelves, the whole deal. And the best way to get in touch with me from DJStands.com is to check out the link in the description. I'll put a direct link. Not to this stand, I'll put it directly to the website because of course you've got so much more, so many more products on there haven't you? Yeah yeah we've got a lot of stands for the home DJ studios or setups. Fantastic. So over here we've got Matrix EX and then the one I do like, I've always liked because it's a bit of a space saver, is the wing stand. If you're like me you've got very very little space

Laptop. Yeah, RMX, a lot of guys have 2000s and an RMX or MIDI controller. And then mixer down there. What we've done with this one, on the very original ones, we had quite a short space here. We put these extra bars in specifically for this bad boy, the 2000. So now we've got the room for that. No, that's wonderful. Okay, alright, fantastic. It's always a pleasure. Thank you. And we're on our third day now. We're on a Monday, so we're quite tired, aren't we? Yes. Feet on our feet. Sandwich and a bottle of water will sort me out like one. Ages. Tell me about it. Alright, as I said, ladies and gentlemen, they'll put a link to DJStands.com in the description of this video. I will also give you information. We'll put an email as well, I reckon. Yeah, sure. And yeah, any questions. The beauty about Paul and DJ Stands...

All right, Paul, been a pleasure. Thank you very much. Practice and enjoy.
