Competitive Clarification?

Re; Guest Editorial: “Some Things Are Better Left Undone” (Mobile Beat, May 2003)

While most of the items under David Van Enger's iist entitied

“Ethicai, morai, professionai disc jockeys don't..." do fail under good ethical practice, some of them certainly do not qualify as ethical or moral issues.

Item 1: ...consistently, knowingly undercut any competitor just to book the event.

Response: It is not "unethical" to knowingly undercut a competitor just to txx)k the event. That's business. Some businesses choose to compete more on price than others. I personally do not choose to compete this way, but I wouldn't call a competitor who does “unethical;" a poor businesspersoh, maybe—but not unethical.

Item 2: ...attempt to hire the competition's contented employees.

Response: Again, that's business. In almost any profession, employers are always keeping an eye out for talent and trying to recruit it. That sometimes means "stealing" people from competitors. Again, I personally do not do it as a standard practice, and I certainly am not happy when it happens to me, but I wouldn't go as far as to say it is an unethical practice. Just be forewarned that if you choose to operate like this, turnabout is fair play. There could be consequences.

Item 3: ...attend any type ofDJ gathering (Mobile Beat’s Las Vegas DJ show, etc.) with the sole

B. Rich Expo

We recently “ran into" some familiar faces at an audio event, just down the road from One Mobile Beat Tower, in Webster.

New York. B. Rich Company, Inc., a regional distributor and rep firm for a variety of audio brands, hosted a manufactur¬

ers’ open house. Among others, personnel from Gemini (www.geminidj.com) and ETA {www.etasys.com} were on hand, in the left-hand picture. Bill Richards (I.), owner/president of B.

Rich, appears with ETA's Victor Pavona (r.); in the other shot, Richards is flanked by Alan Cabasso (I.) and Jeff Kleinberger (r.) of Gemini Sound Products.

Univenture Reloaded

Leading CD storage provider UnIventure, Inc. has launched a new, easier to navigate, full-service Web site at www.univenture.com. At the site, you can now purchase, as well as find information on the company’s media packaging and storage products. Univenture has built a loyal following for its line of sleeves, multidisc and other storage products, along with UniKeep binders and wallets. The company is also a good corporate citizen, making sure that many of their products are either of archival quality or easily recyclable.

The Right Call

Our recerrl review of DJSoft's Event Manager software (MB July 2003, #81, p. 28) experienced one technical difficulty—we listed the company's Web site incorrectly. For more into on this powerful DJ business management solution, go to www.djsoftinc.com, ofl! www.djsoft.com, as was printed.

A Sound Explanation S

tanton drew on the talents of a team of engineers with broadcast/recording studio mixer design experience to create the iow-noise circuitry found in the RM-22, as well as a number of othei Stanton mixers. SST, or Superior Sound Technoiogy™ can also be found in the SA-5, SMX-401, SMX-301 models. The goal of the team was to achieve the ciean, transparent sound and minimai channel bleed found in studio mixers, while also maintaining a minimai price point. Each SST mixer is checked against audio precision standards and given a listening test.

A signed certificate of performance is included in each box.

Visiosonic with an external mixer, and there's no need to use your keyboard and mouse when spinning MP3s on the dance floor. The lightweight (7 lbs.) rack-mountable controller looks and feels just like a dual CD player, and con¬

trols all the features and functions found in PCDJ Blue, PCDJ Red, and the new PCDJ FX software.

Match beats, create and play perfectly synced loops in forward or reverse, set cue points, and much more with the touch of a button—all on the fly. The DAC-2 works with Windows 98/ME/2000/XP and comes with a plug-and- play USB interface. MSRP: $475 - www.pcdj.com

Segueing to New Version

Fidelity

Media, Inc. has updated MegaSeg, their music mixing software for Macs, to version 2.6.3. It can now read the annotation tags of AAC compressed audio files used by Apple's new ITunes Music Store. The application has the unique ability to assign multiple categories to a song, and to view multiple categories at once using Boolean options.

Flexible output modes allow MegaSeg to be used without a hardware mixer for a compact setup, or with a mixer for added beat-mixing options. Automated music scheduling lets you create custom music and video performances. Check out the MegaSeg site for other new features and system requirements. MSRP: $169 -www.megaseg.com

very year at the Mobile Beat Confer¬

ences it seems an increasing number of women are present. Some are the spouses of male DJs. But an increasing number are in the profession on their own—and more often than ever, they are propri¬

etors of their own businesses. Four years have passed since we last spoke with several ladies in the disc jockey profession to get their take on things (Mobile Beat #53, June/July 1999).

We decided that it was high time to check back in, to see if there have been any dramatic changes in the DJ profession, from the female point of view.

ail about the new. Because information is easily updated, it lould be up-to-date. If a site is cluttered up with musty detri- s. it will only reflect poorly on you or your organization.

GoLive, Dreamweaver, and Frontpage all let you check

which pages were most recently, and least recently.

Look for broken internal links, which point to pages within your site, and external links, which point to other Web sites. If more man a couple of links no longer work.

Is obsolete as well. Many Web authoring programs auto¬

mate this process.

Clean out folders of old files and scripts you're no longer using. There's no point wasting the disk space.

Update old contact information. The Internet Age is the age of connectivity. If people can't reach you, why put up a Web site in the first place?

Give your site a face-lift to improve navigation, usability, and accessibility. Arriola is a proponent of Web design guru Jakob Nielsen's two-click rule: Users should be able to find content they're after in two clicks rather than having to burrow several levels down. If information at your site is too hard to find, users may look elsewhere, in a couple of clicks.

If you don't already have one, consider adding an internal search engine to your site. Atomz Corp.

(www.atomz.com) lets you easily add either a simple or sophisticated search engine and sends you a periodic report of what visitors are searching for. The simple search engine is free, though available only for sites with fewer than 500 pages.

Consider incorporating graphical and other enhance¬

ments, provided they don't bog down users. Examples include animations, audio clips, or video clips that offer useful substance such as product demonstrations.

Another option is adding a wireless interface for those accessing your site using a mobile device.

Gut the First Floor

Some Web experts say that active sites should be revamped every two or three years. Reasons to redesign a sKe include new directions in your organization, changing ways that people use your site, and new Web technology.

Depending on where your site is hosted, you may be able to use software to analyze which sections of your site are receiving the most and the least traffic and to identify any problems visitors may be experiencing in surfing your site. Virtual hosting companies and some ISPs can provide this infonnation for you. If you're hosting your site yourself, various software programs can do the trick.

For obtaining Web metrics and analytics about your site, a number of companies offer solutions, includ¬

ing NetlQ Corp. (www.netiq.corrVwebtrends). Accrue Software (www.accrue.com), and WebSideStory (www.websideslory.com).

Options in try-before-you-buy software include Absolute Log Analyzer from BitStrike Software (www.bitstrike.com). SiteVigil Pro from Silurian Software (www.silurian.com). and LinkTrakker DUO from Internet Total Solutions (www.affiliatesbusiness.com).

Using this information can prompt decisions to close more accessible or to beef up your hardware.

Finally, consider doing site testing with real people.

Whether you hire a company to do this for you or do it yourself more informally, such testing can help you do the most important thing you can do in designing and maintain¬

ing a Web site; adopt a users' perspective.*
