    While you can certainly use regular speakers as monitors, it’s not the most optimal setup. Monitors are typically designed to provide a flat frequency response and less distortion, which is important when mixing and mastering audio.

It all depends on your specific needs and the quality of the speakers you have.

    Blues and jazz have their own distinct histories and characteristics, and they didn’t exactly turn into one another. However, there are certainly connections and influences between the two genres.

    The United Kingdom is often cited as having some of the best DJs in the world, with names like David Guetta, Calvin Harris, and Daft Punk hailing from there. However, other countries such as the Netherlands and Sweden also have a strong dance music scene and produce talented DJs. It’s important to note that great DJs can be found in every corner of the globe, and music taste is subjective, so the “best” can vary depending on personal preferences.
