    I kind of disappointed that the go to opinion on this channel is "where is the new hardware"
    At a time when companies in the DJ space are releasing new controllers every month, I think it's refreshing to see Denon prioritising software updates to existing hardware, over new units entirely.
    Not everyone has the cash to dump £2k on a new unit every 3-4 years, especially at the moment too, just to be able to access a couple of new features.
    Kudos to Denon.

    • @Mojaxx
      @Mojaxx ปีที่แล้ว +8

      That’s always been the strength of Engine, and one of the reasons it’s so good as an ecosystem.
      But inMusic DO want to sell hardware - if it was up them, every Prime 4 user would trade up to a 4+.
      And I’m saying that this hardware is not enough to make that happen. Everyone who owns a Prime 4 should update that to 3.1 and continue to enjoy it with all those new features.

      I get that, but why even discontinue the Prime 4 to begin with? In my opinion, the Amazon music chip is not a great selling point to warrant a re-release of the same hardware. If I bought the Prime 4 used two weeks ago, I'd be super upset.

    I own a Denon Prime 4 since February 2020. I absolutely love it. This has been my main controller since January 2021. I did love to get the Denon Prime 4+ , but I can’t justify buying it now just to add one new feature. I use Amazon music, which will be very convenient for weddings. But I rather wait for the next one.
    The things I will like to see in the next generation Denon standalone controller is:
    Toggle switches to activate effects
    Stems feature
    Spinning platters (maybe)
    Bigger jog wheels (definitely)
    Ability to playback videos

    The ability to play with stems in standalone would be amazing. To be clear, I'm asking for playing stems, not the ability to derive them. In the same way that music can be prepared on a computer and exported to a USB stick, whereby the analysis is done ahead of time, I see no reason this couldn't be expanded to include (where the user wants it) stem separation.
    The hardware would require some sort of user interface to allow the user to solo/mute the stems, and obviously sufficient processing throughput to play, manipulate and mix more tracks of audio.

    I literally just got the SC Live 4 - just placed the new package and ready to unbox today when all of a sudden, Mojaxx, Cleveland Terry, Phil w Digital DJ Tips videos drop for the Prime 4+. I knew this unit was going to come out based on my investigation weeks prior but any new gear drop can cause that fear n shock. In the end, I think I need to sit well with my decision for going with the SC Live 4 for $1300 vs a soon to be posted $2200 Prime 4+ which may or may not (most likely may) include stem features. I think with the money saved, I can wait for the Prime 4 mk3 a few years down the line if I get mileage out of the SC Live 4 and find myself looking for that upgrade. I can do Stems in Serato so ...yeah I'll live.

    It is still the best. I get the marketing and reason for adding the +. This unit is a really good pro-gear that was only missing a new chip which the + has. That will make future enhancements possible that are not on the Prime4. On the other hand I understand the dissapointment of not seeing a brand new design which could be "Prime 4 Pro" or another Prime name with larger wheels. But as it is..there is nothing much this cannot do and they are leading ALL competitions already so why waste $ on designing an already great product. Love the updates..

    the only thing missing as lighting already was implemented to create the perfect Streaming Controller is mb a Coop with Blackmagic to create a Prime4 Stream! with HDMI Inputs and Outputs for Twicht and live Video Streaming Sessions. That would be a Killer. But i think thats not realistic sadly as willbe too expensive and BM is not part of the Inmusic Company. In Opposite to that i could imagine as they bought Arkaos that there will be a live Feature to control Arkaos or even do it live inside the unit with an external HDMI Out Box or something like that. That would make sense and make a difference on the market. Sadly they didnt develop further the Resolume Coop which is obviously the much better Software then Arkaos in many Points. Just the CPU in the + then need to be massivly stronger then in the P4 and im not sure if that makes sense from a Bussines Stanpoint about Production Costs.

      Fuck, we got the best gear on the market right now, for the ridiculous price of $2,300.
      There's never been anything like it in the past.
      You get all the Engine OS upgrades for free. But it's not enough for you... you want all the whistles and bells at once and immediately.
      A lot of customers are just plain ungrateful idiots.

      ​@@djmartinsk 1) Tag system is not a whistle or bell, it's the main navigation if you are a truely flexible dj - for many age groups and preferences. Not all of us stay in the club and bounce between 2 genres only. I see people who constantly buy new music but don't even use what they have because they don't know how to tag music. It is not wrong to say that selection can be up to 90% of all the dj work in a live-situation. Doing the selection live is what makes me feel alive and that feeling is delivered to the people. Clubbing is not the only way for dj-s, the world is much wider, take your time and have a look.

    I’ve owned the Prime 4 for 4 years and love it. I’ve only had to replace the crossfader. However I have 2 questions I’m hoping you can answer as you have the hardware: 1) Are the channel faders changeable? 2) Please tell me the pads may look like the ones on the SCLive, but they are velocity pads not ‘click’ pads. The pads on the SC just click and they’re horrible 😢

    • @djmartinsk
      @djmartinsk ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Pads in Prime4+ is normal (Akai style) pads. Not a microswitches pads, like in SC Live series consoles. Channel faders is not changeable! In case of damage, they are replaceable in the authorized service. Prime 4 is not club style mixer, with user-replaceable channel faders. Any standalone console or MIDI software controller has not user-replaceable channel faders. Channel faders on the Prime4+ are of higher quality, than on the older Prime 4 model.

    I can't help but be disappointed. The Prime 4 was a great release, but it was missing the Standalone Sampler function and split cue button and after they added it to engine 3.0, I was really hoping to see a Sampler button to replace the Slicer Loop on the next piece of hardware they released. I'll stay on the fence until they release the new unspoken feature. Again to recap, great Standalone, just barely missing the mark to begin with, and a reskin with an Amazon music chip doesn't even have the wow factor of the original.

    • @DJIncompetent
      @DJIncompetent ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Split Cue button is in the center next to the Sweep FX. Accessing Sampler is to double-tap Roll twice, which occupies an empty inventory slot where otherwise Slicer Loop is accessed by double-tapping Slicer button twice.

    The first Standalone to NAIL the Stems is going to be very disruptive. Engine dj would be smart to make this happen . Being able to load a STEM FILE and make stem files on the fly would be dope as hell . Maybe the making part gets done on the computer. Oh ya and just give us the RGB on the tracks … everyone has it .. its pretty standard at this point .

    • @TheBraveBlaze

      @@TheBraveBlaze the issue why NI failed is that they put the cart in front of the donkey…. Had they nailed a STEM making algorithm that allowed users to make their own stems from stereo tracks and then released the STEM player I think it would of been a real game changer. But NI has the bad reputation of making things that have potential that are left to die . Look at the maschine plus as a big example … it’s an overpriced midi controller at the end of the day . For it to be effective you still need to complete tracks with a computer attached… bake (vst ) all the tracks as audio back out them back into the unit for it to be a viable live playback instrument. Fred again makes that thing look like the best thing since slides bread . When in reality it’s under powered and hasn’t been popular enough for them to even have rumours of a MK2 in 3 years . And even when they have hit gear they just move on to the next thing. The Kontrol D2 was a favourite amongst tons of DJs … Carl cox … chus & ceballos are still playing on those units and yet NI hasn’t made a new version since it’s launch date in 2015 ! I was a NI fanboy for the longest time they just pivoted too hard into their toy controllers for new djs . And I hear rumours that NI is looking to sell the DJ division. So I’m not really paying attention to NI . It’s too bad
