Hello, I'm new to the DJ world just bought a Denon DJ SC Live 4 as I won a deal in my area. Even though I'm a complete beginner I went for SC live 4. So for lighting, this is what I understood:- 1 Get the offline music in your pc on engine DJ then auto-generate the light script, export the music to USB then connect to SC live 4 2 depending on the lights you got Hue or DMX make sure they are either connected via USB if DMX or Hue hub(wireless). If DMX is not wireless purchase the DMX wireless adapter and connects to the SC LIVE 4 USB. 3 (a)In SC live 4 make sure the USB is selected for music, (b)Go to lighting settings and select the hue or DMX whichever you're using. My questions Can I use DMX lights without wifi- so daisy chain and then pick anyone DMX light to connect via wire to SC live 4, or is that not possible? Can I also connect both Hue and DMX at the same time? Do I need to press something on SC Live 4 to do that lastly does the music always have to be exported to USB for lights to sync with the music, or can this be done on the fly using Serato DJ pro or any other app on pc playing music via let's say SoundCloud connected to SC live 4?
Hi. Is it possible in Engine Dj to program and memorize lights behaviour (rhythm color changes, strobo, colours, stops, effects and so on) within the song data, togheter with hot cues, loops and so on ? ...and, maybe in the future hardware products, to add a DMX plug to start the chain?
Updated my SC6000’s to Engine Dj 2.0 , it’s been awesome. Love the cleaned up look on the screens when navigating. Glad they got rid of crates and have only playlists. Hue lighting has been phenomenal in my home studio with Denon lighting. Dope feature for sure. Great video as always guys.!Cheers from Massachusetts, USA…🤙🏼
hi. i have a question but it doesnt seem to fit in here but ill ask. is there a setting of some kind that turns off the last CUE button when a new one is turned on? so im not pressing two buttons at once to switch, im wanting a kinda Toggle cues , the cue buttons im talking about are the ones above the volume sliders not the 8 below the decks, ive been searching for an hour or so
Great video as usual.... thx... yes love all the new features on my prime 4... denon rock it thx... specially for lighting features right on the unit make it really standalone now and thx for the clock and thx for always listening to our requests and doing needful and keep improving... that's why denon is the future and getting more and more ex pioneer users 😉😎🥳😘
Very impressive! But did I understand it correctly, you need an extra wifi router every time, to connect the Hue Brdige with the Denon Prime unit? 😥 Sounds bit complicate for me, especially for mobile / outdoor scenarios...
So when I'm say streaming through beatport link, does that save as a history like music on a usb ? And do you have the same playlist options on streaming services as you do on USB? As in organise in key/ bpm. Also beatport link you have to make your playlists on beatport for them to come on to the devices. Can I know make and edit playlists on the go through beatport link ??
I just wrote a huge comment about this update and it didn't post. Nice. I'll make it shorter because I'm not writing all that again... I bought a Prime 4 from you guys a few weeks back now. It's a fantastic machine. Nice update overall, but the Hue integration is very buggy for me personally. Only works on deck 1, and then only sometimes. Looking on Denon's forums, I'm not the only one experiencing this it seems. Tidal streaming has a weird bug where it gets the beat grid wrong by one or two bars. Easy to fix but annoying! ALMOST FORGOT The light show you get when updating is sick! The lights glide from left to right across the decks as it goes. Very cool. It would be cool if you could activate that lighting on purpose...
@@matribadeneira9766 it’s up to you if you buy one I made a mistake buying the mcx 8000 it never worked it took over a year to do a up date to fix the Problem that everybody had with them They refused to give me my money back even though they admitted there was a problem with them then it Worked sometimes And then just fell apart I wasted over £1000 never again complete and utter rubbish company and that’s why you never see their controllers in top venues because they’re cheap rubbish
BAD ASSS......HATS OFF TO YOU DENON.......HATS OFF....PIONEER MAY BE INDUSTRY BUT DENON IS THE ELITE IN DJ GEAR WELL DONE GENTS
Are there lights that won't work? What are the best lights for it?

Do the hue lights work if I use my laptop w my standalone controller? When I switch the source to computer I lose my lights. Any advice? Thanks!’

Right on! Thanks for the comment Stuart!
i updated last night its great only thing is my beat grids are moving on my stand alone unit,will this be fixed by an update?
Thanks Fellas. I updated my Prime 4 last night. Can't wait to give it go! Great video!
Hope you enjoy the new features Kevin! Thanks so much for the comment!
Is it Possible to Filter search from a specific playlist or a sub playlist of a playlist?
How do you add fixtures....would this have to be done on the laptop?
Yes, you build the venue on the SoundSwitch desktop app and then export on a USB!
Nothing for professionals systems? Like the ones from Pioneer?
I'm unsure what you're getting at here Claudia! Do you think Denon isn't professional?
Hey DjKit where can i found the the sounswitch cable?.

Very impressive! But did I understand it correctly, you need an extra wifi router every time, to connect the Hue Brdige with the Denon Prime unit? 😥 Sounds bit complicate for me, especially for mobile / outdoor scenarios...
No no! The the Hue box connects in to the back of your WIFI router, you don't need anything extra!
Allright :/ Thanks guys!

As in organise in key/ bpm. Also beatport link you have to make your playlists on beatport for them to come on to the devices. Can I know make and edit playlists on the go through beatport link ??
How do you set the dmx lights on lights themselves so it knows channels etc address
Go check out the Engine DJ TH-cam channel!
Would it be able to control the movement on moving heads ?
You can do position overrides on moving heads in engine lighting in the advance mode!
Hey guys just put a ass in the prime 4 and can't see it on my computer do I need to pre format the drive
Yes, it needs to be FAT32 or EXFAT
Is it possible for us to get title as an option to play from as we do say with BPM or Key?
Worth requesting on the Denon forums!
I just wrote a huge comment about this update and it didn't post. Nice.

ALMOST FORGOT
The light show you get when updating is sick! The lights glide from left to right across the decks as it goes. Very cool. It would be cool if you could activate that lighting on purpose...
Thanks for the comment! Have you reported these issues on the Denon forums?
You can script lighting for tracks using SoundSwitch desktop software rather than using the default Auto Loops
Time for a Prime 4M now?
Wow! The options are definitely there now the RANE ONE is out!
at the end we just mix 2 songs :)
Is this too much technology for you Fyro?
we need bar count🙏
That's a great shout! Have you requested it in the forums?
Fucking wicked 🥵🥵🥵
Glad you think so! Don't forget to sub!
You speak so much too explain almost nothing 🙄
Denon controls are cheap and fall apart after one year don’t make the mistake I did
Which part did you have problems with Anton?
On the contrary

@@antonjamesmix2440 that was before inmusic bought denon... they are very different units now
@@NiceWindow it’s up to you if you want to Waste your money On that cheap rubbish that doesn’t work
On that controller even how many lights as you can connect? Just like live show djing?
