Why I Changed My Mind About The Humpter B3 DJ Booth - First Look & Unboxing

Музыка

When the Humpter B3 came out, I thought it was ridiculously overpriced for the features that it offered. But I kept noticing that it was always selling out, so I took a closer look and eventually fell enough in love to buy one for myself. Join me as I review, unbox, and demo the Humpter B3, distributed by ProX.
Thanks to my friends at Hollywood DJ for hooking me up with this great piece of DJ furniture. They can take care of you too. (Use Code "DJDARYLBENNETT" to save 10%!)

Here's the guitar pedal board I use to pre-wire my setup: amzn.to/3vzFlfd
Somehow it got lost on the cutting room floor, but this fits a 55" TV. I'll probably make another video on that some day.

    Haha I think you'd be happy with this booth. Hollywood DJ (link in the description) has a great deal with coupon TD10. I think if you're gonna get the humpter, I'd stick with the humpter totems. But the material feels similar to gravity stands or rockville totems too.

    Man, you have really leveled UP your wedding DJ setup. Wow!! Looks amazing to me! The Humpter is far too big and tall for me, but it should be perfect for a 6'4" guy. I'm no where near that height lol. Congrats on the new all white setup! I promise you, your clients are gonna LOVE your new setup!

    It looks amazing but man I was exhausted just looking at your video lol. I can’t imagine setting up/tearing down this beast every day at work. In my mind that’s more of a permanent set up. Let’s see at the end of your wedding season how much you still love it and how it holds up. Not being able to “permanently” set your gear inside will also add so much more time to your set up. I love your “travel bag” idea but you still need to plug in and out everything, every single time, including wireless mic, surge protector/power regulator, mixer, DMX controller, etc. Kudos to you for doing all this each event. At the end of the day it’s very slick, but definitely not very portable or lightweight (where do you even put your Evox in your car, once you load that beast in?), and still ridiculously overpriced. You could buy a hand made solid oak executive office desk for cheaper than that :)

    Yeah we'll see! The Bunn Gear Command Center was definitely better for prewiring and transportability (even though it was slightly heavier), but I'm excited for the flexibility to use any setup I want. I had the Evox 12 in the car during my loading demo in the video. I couldn't keep them upright. To be honest though, it is way more portable than most video booths and it's crazy that it fits in a normal sized car.

    Daryl I would love to know more about your guitar paddleboard set up. Seems like it would cut down a lot on set up time. I also have noticed that when I used the booth and I put my wireless mic receiver on the under rack shelf thingy it didn’t get clear enough signal because it had to travel through metal so I ended up putting the receiver on top of the table which definitely decreased from the aesthetic impact I’ll be curious to see how you work through that

    I have tried some stands and combination with good cases but my best solution for the small mobile set up is a x-keybordstand and a Case for my NI traktor S4 with a built in shelf for my Mac and a minimixer from Yamaha. My speakerstand are lightweight from KM and the FOH are BK Audio Galaxius 15 system for some SemiPro Party up to 100p today. Earlier When I played on bigger events I used Systems from dbaudiotechnic often Qsub and Q7 and sometimes Qsub and T10. But Now Its lot of great sound for small money. In my own gardenparty I Use JBL Partybox 100 and It sounds great! I really love that box❤

    B3 is a nice table - I purchased one a month ago, taking it to my first wedding next week. I like that it folds away and the all aluminum build. I don't like the laptop stand design, it should be some sort of fold away stand that lives in the main bag. Also the bottom shelf is very flimsy- good for a small mixer and a few lighter items. For me, it definitely adds more setup time, but portability was key.

    Looks nice for sure but it adds a good amount of work. Having a Toadmatic and dropping just your signal and power is just way more efficient. Power conditioning, distribution, 3 wireless mic systems, a 16 channel digital mixer, a sliding shelf and 4 u drawer are all in one place, still room for lots of contingency items too. As I age I'm all about efficiency lol. Looks fantastic though for sure.

    Considered doing a comparison video, perhaps I will! Bunn gear travels easier, lets you keep gear prewired, has a sleeker sunken top look. Quicker to setup (because of prewiring) Humpter doesn’t confine your look to a certain setup (based on the top plate that you may have), lets you attach a tv. The look of the podium booth vs boxy table is totally subjective and I think both look good in a DJs arsenal. Both are made of aluminum and durable. I think you’d be happy with either
