It's like a touch screeen jukebox and replaces the use of a DJ, is it cheaper to rent one or have a DJ?
Most rental centers have them I looked online but most sites don't tell you the price, the first to find it I will pick as the winner!

I'll try and word this right.

But recently i've seen bands with tour lists (Pendulum, Mystery Jets, Editors and Babyshambles) that have either live or DJ set after them, so the question is, what is the difference?

Even though your wedding day is billed as your 'special day', you often can't help but feel stressed and overwhelmed by the whole affair. Following are some tips to help you reduce the stress on your wedding day:

1. Try and eat a healthy breakfast. A healthy, nutritious breakfast will provide a wonderful start to your wedding day, followed by several small meals throughout the rest of the day. Incorporate into your meals a light menu of unsweetened fresh/dried fruit, unsalted nuts, raw vegetables, low-fat yogurt, cottage cheese, and high-fiber bread. Unsweetened fruit juices also help to calm stressed-out nerves.

2. Make sure you have some fresh bottled water with you at all times. Taking a few sips throughout the day is better than guzzling down the whole bottle in 10 minutes, unless you want to spend a lot of time running to and from the restroom. Among a host of other things, water is necessary for the body to digest and absorb vitamins and minerals. Coffee, tea, and caffeinated sodas prompt the body to lose water, so they can work against you on your wedding day.

3. Laugh! Find every reason throughout the day to find things around you that help to make you laugh. Laughter has been found to help in decreasing stress hormones that can constrict blood vessels and suppress immune activity.

4. Be very well organized. The more time you spend organizing everything with everybody prior to the wedding (e.g., caterer, event coordinator, photographer, disk jockey/DJ, videographer, limo driver, etc.) the less stress you will have on your wedding day. Do not leave things to the last minute, and try to have everything finalized at least one week ahead of your wedding day.

5. If you are leaving for your honeymoon immediately after the reception, don’t forget to have all your luggage (along with important items like passports, airline tickets, travelers checks, etc.,) packed and placed in a safe location you have access to.

6. Get a good night’s sleep the night before your wedding. In order to get a good night’s sleep the night before, you should

• avoid watching TV in bed;

• minimize noise, light, and temperature extremes in your room;

• avoid any naps during the day before;

• not drink caffeine at least 4 hours prior to going to sleep;

• avoid eating, exercise or alcohol prior to going to sleep.

7. Delegate as many tasks to as many people that are willing to help as possible. The less you have to do on your wedding day, the less stressful it will be for you.

8. Keep a healthy perspective on the day. Even though the wedding day is important, your future happiness does not depend on this single day alone.

9. Research has shown that music has a profound effect on your body and psyche. Music can be used to bring about a more positive state of mind, which can help prevent the stress response from wreaking havoc on the body. Make sure you work with your disc jockey/DJ to incorporate all the songs that mean the most to you in your ceremony and/or reception.

10. Understand that not everything on your wedding day is under your control. Names can get mispronounced, important participants can get lost or arrive late, nature can refuse to cooperate, vehicles can break down, and so on. Amidst all this, try and accept with grace and humility the fact that not everything is under your control.

11. Bonus tip! Above all, make sure you take the time to enjoy your special day, even though there will be a lot going on. Take in the elegant floral arrangements, the exquisite table settings, the smiling faces, the soothing music, and all the other special touches that have been put together just for you.

A Computerized DJ or a Computer DJ based in Ontario, Mississauga, Toronto or any other part of Canada is a Disc Jockey who uses a computer, mostly laptops to play digital music. The music is usually .mp3 or .wav encoded audio music files played to a public crowd. Some common DJ entertainer software programs include Traktor DJ Studio, Ableton Live, Torq, PCDJ, Virtual DJ/Numark Cue, Scratch live, Deckadance, Ultramixer and djay. A good example of computer DJs are the majority of professional Toronto DJs, the best among them being Toronto wedding DJs.

Professional Toronto DJs are among the world's best and are taking this DJ business into new dimensions. They even have Toronto wedding DJ services. When one books a Toronto wedding DJ they are booking a whole entertainment suite that will cater for all the wedding entertainment services from the beginning to the end. Toronto wedding DJs are some of the most Professional Toronto DJs due to the challenges they face in adapting to different wedding scenarios. The best Toronto wedding DJs are organized into formal registered DJ associations. So what other technology does the Toronto wedding DJ use to be ranked among the best?

The Professional Toronto DJs usually use MIDI controllers with laptops to give them a better interface and control of DJ Software since the controllers provide physical controls like those found on any typical DJ mixer. Soundcard audio interfaces and external hard disk drives are also often used. The majority of the DJ entertainer PC programs allow integration and manipulation of external audio inputs encouraging many Professional Toronto DJs who previously only used CDs or Vinyl or to integrate laptops with other setups. This especially goes well with Toronto wedding DJs who have to integrate some old analogue church systems to their advanced digital systems.

Professional Toronto DJs also use packages based on the Linux operating systems. These Linux DJ entertainer party packages include the following. BeatForce is a DJ system designed for 2 players having independent mixers, samplers, playlists and song databases among other features. BpmDj is an extremely interesting program set for Linux DJ. DBMix is a DJ audio mixer system. DJ Krazy is a CD/MP3 mixer for Linux DJ. DJPlay is a DJing Linux application. Final Scratch is a pro-audio system by Stanton Magnetics. GDAM (Geoff and Dave's Audio Mixer), is a new Linux DJ mixer. These digital DJ systems are real party packages providing the best of DJ entertainments and a serious Professional DJ should own at least two.

The professional Toronto DJs are organized into DJ entertainment companies which provide various DJ entertainment MC services. The top quality Toronto DJ entertainment services provided include weddings, fund raisers, corporate functions, school functions, birthdays, anniversaries, christenings, communions, confirmations, bar mitzvahs and private parties. These professional Toronto DJs and MCs service companies even plan other event thrillers like party games and other party packages thus are not exclusive to DJ services only. The Toronto wedding DJ is the professional Toronto DJ to call for one's wedding events, dollar dances, garter auctions and/or bouquet tosses.

Being a professional DJ in Ontario, Mississauga or other parts of Canada is a rewarding and well paying job. Toronto wedding DJs and professional Toronto DJs are invited to many social events because of their skills and popularity in Canada. An aspiring Toronto DJ needs to know several things so they can entertain the crowd and have a fulfilling career. One can learn the basics of being a DJ from a professional Toronto DJ. Since they have been in the business for a long time, a professional Toronto DJ can teach someone how to master the use of various music gear. Such gear includes USB turntables, deck packages, headphones, record boxes among others. Various companies manufacture the gear and one need to buy some that are of value in terms of quality.

A Toronto wedding DJ also needs quality equipment and good microphones for any party packages he or she might be required to perform. A professional Toronto DJ should also know the various types of music receiving airplay. A DJ entertainer has the responsibility of entertaining guests in a club. Since people have different music tastes, a professional Toronto DJ will play music to entertain majority of the crowd in a disco hall and a Toronto wedding DJ should prepare music that is relevant to the event.

Part of the many DJ services includes being invited to social events. A wedding might be one such event where a Toronto wedding DJ may also offer MC services. As a Toronto wedding DJ, one will be required to get appropriate songs that suit the event. Since MC services will also be offered, the DJ needs to be organized so the two activities are complimentary. As a professional Toronto DJ, one will have to adapt to the changing music environment so they provide quality entertainment.

As a professional Toronto DJ, one should know how to change from one track to another. As a Toronto DJ, one should keep people entertained the whole night. In a wedding, the Toronto wedding DJ has the obligation of keeping people entertained especially because the guests are attending the wedding to enjoy themselves. Part of DJ entertainment includes providing lighting that will match the mood of any occasion. At a club, a professional Toronto DJ should have lighting that is a bit dim or he can request disco lights to create an exciting atmosphere where people will dance. A Toronto wedding DJ could also request for soft lighting that creates a romantic mood.

Other things to consider as a Toronto wedding DJ include mastery of the turntable and DJ mixing. To be a professional Toronto DJ or a Toronto wedding DJ the way you mix your songs will either make you popular or unpopular. Sometimes a DJ relies on instinct and the most important thing is to read the mood of the crowd. A technics turntable requires a lot of mastery before it is use in a club and therefore any DJ needs to practice a lot.
