Using Headphones As A Microphone: Throwback Thursday DJ Technique

Post on FacebookTweet thisUpvote on Reddit

Any DJ who has ever worked a bar gig knows that, occasionally, you might be asked to announce something to the crowd. But if the DJ booth doesn’t have a microphone, this becomes a bit more of a challenge. However, using a bit of old school DJ trickery, you can very easily use your headphones instead. Watch Ean’s throwback tutorial inside!

Using a headphone as a microphone is one of the oldest tricks in the book for many working DJs – but we know there’s a whole group of younger DJs who may never have had to figure out this for themselves.

Do you have more ideas for techniques from earlier eras of DJing that could make a great throwback tutorials like this one? Let us know in the comments below.
