Today, we're putting the spotlight on one of the most convenient pieces of hardware in the DJ space. In this review of the Denon DJ PRIME Go, I tell you about this two-channel all-in-one standalone DJ system... and why you might want to consider it.
There are different things DJs value when it comes to DJ controllers, but a universally praised trait is… convenience. And the Prime Go is the ultimate in convenience. It’s a no-frills, standalone, 2-channel DJ system that runs Engine OS. It has all the basics you need for mixing: hot cues, FX, EQs and filters… even wi-fi streaming… in an easy-to-carry package.
But the real standout feature of the Prime GO is its four-hour battery… allowing you to pop on some headphones and bring it with you in a train, plane, or automobile. Or, on a family vacation, like I did a few months back… where I used this Prime Go to teach my stepdaughter the basics of DJing.
Today, I’m gonna share my experience with the Prime Go, talk about all its features, and help you figure out if it’s the right DJ system for you.

Denon puts removable plastic where you used that Microfiber Cloth. I know this because I kept my plastic on my Prime 4. Just peel it off if you want the actual finish, Lol...
Denon always has great products. I’ve been rocking my AVR-X1100w 7.2 surround sound receiver for 6+ years now, never a single issue and puts out super clean power.
Professional, fantastic review.
Really useful review showing the actual operation It's allowed me to order one as it answered all of my questions. Thanks
bought the Prime Go some time ago, the best choice I could make. It has everything you need, sound quality is amazing, all types of connections, and portable af. Even my friends are thinking about buying one instead of a bigger machine. It's just superb.
Does it have a built in speaker to plug-in to
@@robhall6361 nope it doesn't
Does it still show the master on the channel meters or is there an option to show each individual channel volumes yet ?
@@christolongers I don't really get your question but the two meters show each channel's individual volumes. So you can kinda adjust with the gains on the EQ.
@@tiolulo8125 if you just put one track on do the lights go up on both sides ?
Great unit, definitely a stand out product.
My favorite controller by far 🔥🔥🔥🔥
this is the most passionate dj i’ve ever heard
Thanks for your help! I have solved the FX problem with your help. How do I adjust my pitch? The right side is really sensitive to every little movement. Is there an adjustment in the screen?
Great job. I put a usb drive in the back but how do you search for music? I tried but it doesn’t show up. Also, how do you load a bunch of songs from one list at the same time?
I love my Prime Go. Sometimes exporting playlists to Rekordbox can be a pain but it's possible. Lots of fun to use.
How do you export to Rekordbox? Do you do it on device?
Great review, also like that you use a pen to point ot specific items, too many reviewers fail to use a object to point to specific things they are discussing
Great video mate
Thanks for your video. Interesting device, thinking of ditching traktor due to the lack of new hardware. It seems like the ideal compromise between the 2 genre: Pioneer & Traktor.
great review! i have the prime go for a while now. where did you buy the black thing you put your prime go on? it can be seen in minute 18 something for instance. the thing you can adjust the prime go to be standing on a specific angle? looks great, would like to get this too! thx rafael
Great video 👍😎
On my prime go, the mic talk over stopped working. Any ideas of what to do? When I press the mic button the music volume stays the same. Help please!
Strong units...mine fell a few weeks ago about 4ft and after the heart in mouth moment it was bang on
Damn, that's both confidence-inspiring and terrifying. lol
Nice one David. Got the Go and the Prime 4.
Nice! The dynamic duo!
@@PassionateDJ yes sir
@@PassionateDJ Where do you get your music from?
If I downgrade from my 4 to a Go do you think I’ll miss the 4 as a bedroom DJ?
Another excellent review. I was wondering about these as a budget dj system along side my mpc live 2
That sounds like a great combo!
It's perfect for the MPC live 2. They have a very similar build and size. I wonder if they were manufactured at the same place. You can even use the same charger.
@@DNYLNY might have to add this to the arsenal
@@DNYLNY InMusic makes both brands (Denon and Akai)
starlight great job
Where's the microphone settings you have to download them thank you
I've been on the fence and your video helped me decide to go for it, thank you! What stand is that and where did you get it from, I like how it sits it almost straight up.
It's this lil' guy right here! amzn.to/3hSJzYe
@@PassionateDJ Thank you, I just ordered it!
Needs an M2 slot and WebDav support, then it would be great.
Can you download / buy Music direct from the device or do you need to use a USB that has had Music put on from the laptop? Thinking of DJing in a place where there is no internet!
It highlights standalone, just wondering whether a laptop is needed at set-up stage, updates and getting your music…
You can either provide your own downloaded music (e.g. with USB drive), or you can use Dropbox or streaming service which supports an "offline locker" (allowing you to download some music to the local device).
In any case, a computer would be helpful off-stage for building and managing your libraries or playlists.
Great review for the Prime Go! Where else can you get an A++ review and a history of Tetris in one video? #realDJs
Sometimes, I just can't help myself! 😅
How do I adjust my pitch other than the pitch control? Is there an adjustment in the screen? Its very sensitive.
You can go into settings and reduce the range. That will make it less responsive.
Can u use the aux in with an external effects box/pedal like a mixer to effect both channels ? Have u tried it ? The cloth cleaning bit is a disappointment tho.
Sounds like you’re describing a send/return channel (in which case, no)
I like my unit but now I have to leave my crossfader centered because it bleeds on both sides, luckily i never got into scratching so I don't depend on it for that reason
I’m buying this or sc live 4 and I’m worried about the problem you have. How long until you had music bleed?
I am a wedding dj that uses cd's. Would this be a good system as a back up or main system? Can I use this with USB"S without downloading the soft wear?
Is perfect for back-up as well as the Numark Mixstream Pro
Can someone please let me know, without a USB/SD does this require Wi-Fi to play the songs live at a party?
I’m buying this or sc live 4 and can’t decide what’s best.
There’s only $300 difference, so if you are cross-shopping these two, I would recommend the SC Live 4. It is way, way more capable than the PRIME Go. The big selling point of the Go is the battery - but since that doesn’t seem to be critical for you, you’ll be much happier with the SC Live 4’s capabilities. See my latest video for more info on this - a full guide covering all these Standalones! Hope this helps.
Do you know of a good light weight soft case to get for this?
Go for the Magma XL 41101 medium briefcase style transport case with removable top.
what should i go for?prime go or sc live 2?
SC Live 2, unless you value the battery and portability more than the speakers and extra features.

I just purchased the denon go and I was hoping you could help me. I am having trouble activating the sweep FX buttons. I tap A and B and no difference? What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help.
Go into the shortcuts menu on the screen, and make sure the big "FX" button is enabled. This got me recently!
@@PassionateDJ I did that and does not help. could it be the software?
@@mb1958jay49 Are you testing this with headphones, or with speakers using the master out?
I came across a forum post that says you might not hear the sweep FX through the headphones:
community.enginedj.com/t/sweep-effects-not-working/16230
@@PassionateDJ Turns out you are correct! To hear the FX you have to use the master out if you are using a headset. Thanks a lot!
@@mb1958jay49 glad to help! Enjoy, it’s a great piece!
There is plastic film over the left and right areas beside the display.
Indeed, we did have the film on for part of the shooting process. Especially since we knew we’d be traveling with it.
Is there a slip mode on the prime go?
