I have it paired up to my iPad Air running Algoriddim Dj Pro and absolutely love it,, initially l thought I wanted the built in screen but I am now used to the iPad size screen which I have made a custom stand/ holder for that it doesn’t bother me,, Microphone eq would have been really nice as well as a usb c port seeing they removed the Ethernet port. I also wish there was a way of seeing the battery level indicator in Computer mode..😊

Felicidades, buena revisión del prime go plus ,pero no veo la necesidad de cambiar mi go por una nueva no hay nada nuevo. Esperaré algo más adelante y ver lo que ofrece Denon con sus productos nuevos. Un saludo desde Conil, España.

Very good review Cleveland,and just in its wake they released stems across all formats as well, though as others have already remarked, you can just bring a dongle to attend any ethernet needs. Thouugh really agree that they should have thought about having the mic integrated with the software since they were doing an upgrade... I am not that crazy about Amazon so idk.. One thing though, and this perhaps is why most folks want the GO+ is for longer battery life. You didnt really touch on this. Alternatively, could this be solved independently at home by switching to better battery. Also wish it had three channels, or could double each yeah Denon usually are more generous than most with their ports, that there had phono inputs for turntables. That would be brilliant. Great product nevertheless and wish I had one soon

Not having EQ on the mics is a huge miss! I would like to use this as a cermony controller as a stand alone. Not being able to EQ mics means I still need an external mixer. Also not have the screen tilt, I am shocked they didn't change that. I will stick with original Prime Go.

finally someone with a real review. Seems the denon fanboys dont want to bash their own but are pretty vocal about everything pioneer/alpha releases. Big fail here. This color scheme is what is used on Numark so even the change of color seems to make this look cheaper. Engine software is great but looks like denon innovation has stalled as well. I have denon, numark and pioneer gear and love them all for different reasons but funny how quickly the newbie DJ's rip pioneer / alpha.

@omaritaylor244 2 ай бұрын

It's doesn't make sense why people are complaining, other than Denon scraping the Ethernet port and no mic EQs.... Denon has the Prime 4+ SC Live 2&4... If you want a Prime GO upgrade that's bigger and better and still pretty portable, then get the SC Live 2 or 4, especially the 2 if you only care about 2 channels. Think people, Denon still wants to sell their other standalone controller lines.

@ClevelandTerry Ай бұрын

Nobody said they want a larger anything. We are talking specifically about the prime go.

At least they didn't boost the price. Smart move on their part! Better battery life will be enough to bring those on the fence into the fold. As for me, I'll keep rocking my oG Go until it dies. Still waiting to see if the new chipset is a noticeable upgrade.

It's such a weird thing to just get rid of. It's not like the ethernet port was sacrificed to make space for a new feature so why make it harder for those few people who need it? 🤔

It cuts costs and isn't worth putting in when everything is wireless nowadays. You can plug in a dongle.

@ClevelandTerry 2 ай бұрын

@EuroNation this isn’t an added part like when people get mad they put trs inputs vs xlr. This was already on the device. Cost cutting is relative to who deems it cheap or expensive. An Ethernet port is cheap.

can effects be assigned to the aux input on the prime go?, or is it still not possible to do so??

@dirk6852 24 күн бұрын

I'm glad to hear that, but the 4.1 update has made my Live 4 unusable. It freezes regularly, and when that happens, nothing works except the display. The support keeps delaying a solution, and the 4.2 update hasn't improved anything. This is slowly becoming detrimental to my business.

@djstevie69 Ай бұрын

Such a shame they have blocked features from the prime 2. It's just as expensive and as good as the 4, better than the Go and it feels they are trying to force you into more expensive ways to do things. Disappointed in Denon for this but hey. Still have a great device.

The worst part is they couldn't even fix the simple crossfader bleed they use the same cheap crossfader even on the SC2 sc4 I hear everybody complain about the crossfader and it's bleeding I baby my prime go and after about 3 months a crossfader bleed issue get out of here Denon could have done so much better and just make the quality just a little bit better I feel the quality lacked

@NaidelPro 2 ай бұрын

Not worth the upgrade if you have the original prime go, Things I would have consider...to upgrade 1- Better crossfader!!!!! One side starts bleeding out with time. 2-Mic EQ....... At least this can come on an update for now, we gotta buy an external mixer 3- tilt screen or tilt stand For better viewing angles 4- type C charger 2024 type C is the way to go to charge electronics Don't get me wrong I love my denon prime go, but for 1k and many years later i was expecting at least 1 or 2 of the mentioned upgrades😢 Save money buy inmofaders, external mixer, an a laptop stand like me😅
