Because he has a prefernce for Pioneer thats why. I don't know why he would ignore that which is a big diffence.

​@@Llipo_unlockIme He didn't really. It was more a skim over it

[@davidkiss9806]

I don't even care about that option tbh. Just connect an external SSD with over 10000 tracks and another 3K mixes and hundreds of sets LOL. I am more upset about the fact that neither the prime 4, nor the XDJ-AZ have stems without laptop. Slight bump is not having all 4 wave forms on the XDJ at once or screen select without switching the deck... On the other hand, the Prime 4 cancels effects on a currently running track if you switch to change effects on another deck. So heh. Both have issues. We'll prob still have to wait 1 or 2 gen before perfection without a laptop!

The prime 4 also offer blue tooth with the latest update. Honestly the AZ. Is more of the same with pioneer with some upgrades that were provoked by Denon.

I have the denon dj prime 4 with internal 1tb SSD. Love using Soundswitch with the denon dj. The denon prime 4 is more advanced in their technology. I’m planing on buying the denon dj prime 4 plus to use stems feature. I love mixing with stems. I mix a lot of Latin music, so I love being creative for example blending acapellas in spanish with hip hop instrumental or any type of genres I can come up with.

Nice review/comparison. Wow! The prime 4+ constantly stands out above the rest. New all in ones released after the prime 4 that still can’t match the feature set of the prime 4. And on top of that the 4+ has a stems beta. I really don’t see a contest or competition giving the prime 4+ a run for its money.

[@djdeboy]

I also see it that way. The only thing that bothers me really is the engine dj desktop software. If it would ne decent I would buy the prime 4 today

[@ggrocketleague9098]

​@@djdeboyThat is a fair comment. The Engine Prime software used to prepare music needs some more work. It is super simple to use but I have had it crash once and mess up the library. It also feels like it could use more features - perhaps becoming closer to a fully fledged DJ software like VDJ / Serato / Traktor. Pioneer's Rekordbox does a decent and bettee job so far, just as shame they are going for the subscription route which hurts DJ's wallets. I'd say Engine Prime is still plenty usable for the job it is intended for, let's hope they improve it.

[@djdeboy]

@ggrocketleague9098 In my opinion, it is not usable! Evertime I try to export via the sync manager it always freezes 🥶 and takes ages till I can get control again. Then I want to verify that all my playlists are there, and It takes 3 seconds to open every branch and see if all the playlists are there, which is super annoying. And the last thing is that it doesn't correctly analyse almost all of the beat grids. I don't necessarily care about other features. If the software would be stable and I could prepare my music without I headache I would buy denon equipment. And how do I know? I had a sc live 4 which I heartbroken sold for those reasons...

[@alexzanderking1556]

the Prime 4+ is the best all rounder and if the updated version has better jogs (for those who do not like the jogs) it will be by far and away the best standalone, had the AZ had all of the features it is supposed to at launch it would be somewhat on par with the Prime 4, the Opus is a niche product and was designed to be that so you either have to really like it and or your main gigs are high end functions that the opus would compliment. Also lets not forget the Denon Sc Live 4 that has a smaller screen to the p4 and the in jog displays are mid but if you can get past that it can do everything the P4 can do and is around £600 cheaper and when you take that into account it does not reflect well on the AZ and Opus for their prices.

Denon has three layers of FX. Something that Pioneer had on their hardware Rekordbox controllers (DDJ-RX/RZ back in 2017 but abandoned on all hardware going forward).

No idea why the pads are left below the jog when all other new hardware releases are CDJ workflow.

[@djtambora597]

Denon prime 4 + shines and is the king

[@madmoo2658]

Everyone comments on the Prime 4 capabilities and look, but as an event organiser Pioneer at the end of the day is the only real option when booking DJs due to the nature of it being part of the standard. If I was buying equipment for home or having our residents play exclusively the Prime 4 would be excellent, but handing it over to someone unprepared just isn't an option when the goal is giving the audience a good show. Our events are free and frequent so we tend to bite the bullet on buying equipment rather than do rental; since I can use hire income as the funding source for free events (Alongside donations) not only does the AZ mean DJs have an easier time playing, but I'll also have an easier time hiring them out and making up the utterly obsene different in cost.

[@ReddPepperVoiceActor]

For those who are vexed about the branding change from Pioneer to Alphatheta. To calm yourself down all you need to do is look at the back of your Pioneer XDJ-XZ controller (which was released yeaaaars ago) where the connection ports are to find the word ALPHATHETA printed at least half a dozen times. Alphatheta has been rebranding Pioneer hidden in plain sight since 2019 ish. Just saying 🙏🏽

[@esswhy2076]

I currently have a ddj rx. I want to buy the dj az. On my rx I can use multiple effects at once using the buttons along the top. E.g. reverb/flanger/spiral all together and very easily. I can change the amount of each effect easily too as they all have their own knob. How would I do this on the az considering it's just one knob to choose the effect and one knob to change the amount of effect?

[@BopDJstore]

I'd say in comparison it might not give you the same results as the DDJ-RX was made with this intended purpose, but where the AZ does prevail is its layout making it closer to a club setup which is why these features have been left off. We normally have seen these features in the past in the DDJ series but you can still combine multiple FX using the Colour FX & Beat FX at the same time, just not to the extent of that of the RX.

It's clear that Pioneer has drawn inspiration from the prime 4+ in terms of the AZ's microphone controls and booth outputs. Apart from looks and tastes, I'm sorry for Pioneer, but Denon offers more for less, if only with all outputs in xlr, a mono stereo switch, and a tilting screen that can limit reflections and improve visual comfort. As for Pioneer's different effects management, it's a matter of habit. And don't forget that 40 years ago, d-jays were making audiences dance with Technics SL1200s !

I have the Opus Quad, and it has everything you mentioned about the AZ, and even more.

Cons- I hate the way it looks. The Small jogwheels suck and are too slippery for me who loves to scratch. Fader suck, fx suck, the layout has too much going on. Looks like a futuristic space ship cock pit with the led colors.

It's ironic that Pioneer fanboys will shyt on Denon yet they want Pioneer to implement the bells n whistles that Denon has implemented in their gear.

[@piurtv]

Unpopular opinion : Denon should be the club standard now. There's ONE reason for that : Versatility. No matter which kind of file you come with, it should work perfectly with Denon gear. A media full of unanalysed files ? The device will analyse the file and allow you to correct beatgrid easily on the fly. Now, CDJ-3000 or XDJ-AZ can do it too but it's not as efficient. But EngineDJ can also read Rekordbox or Serato metadata and AFAIK, Standalone Pioneer DJ and AlphaTheta gear don't read Serato or EngineDJ. Meaning that if a Pioneer user plays on a Denon unit, the hot cues or saved loops will be there. But if a Denon user plays on CDJ-3000 or XDJ-AZ, there will be no hot cues or saved loops. Also Engine DJ devices have more options for streaming services.

For sure! The OPUS-QUAD screams club layout especially with the extra 2 displays!

Prime 4+ have more input /output audio setup...

Seems like the AZ has what it should of had before. Even now i think Alpha Pheta could of put more streaming etc into the unit. But they are holding out to put something new into the CDJ400S when they drop. It’s all a con. I say the prime 4 beats these even without including the prime 4+

It's so annoying the use of Alphateta logo🤦‍♂️ instead Pioneer DJ... As a Portuguese i always have the feeling of "Ao Pateta" which means "to the Dumbass"

White Version please?

[@David-px5lr]

Can’t get passed the branding change , it sucks!

Pioneer are drip feeders. “Onboard analysis” welcome to the party. 😂

they are all good but .

Prime 4+が欲しいけど、Prime 4+は日本で発売されていません。日本国内の状況はPioneerの独占状態といえるでしょう。

Denon prime 4 same tasks less price

[@nicholas1462]

alpha-theta logo is too small, they should called it AT-DJ or something not that weird name & logo
