Guys, this is $1299 retail now and it can be found on discount for $1100 because you can get 15% discount at a major retailer! I just purchased it. Not only that also received a $100 store credit. It's just a matter of looking around at the top major online music gear retailers.

you re absolutely right ... the price is the issue ... I dont understand why the Serato implementation is so strange ... look at the xdj rx3 ... great implentation. Why do they do such a bad job on Denon products? Why still not the function to switch between Serato and Standalone like Mojaxx mentioned? I dont get it ... If they sell the SC4 for 999 MSRP and the SC2 for 799 MSRP - they would have a great market ... in my opinion

It would never be an upgrade, these two are different lines from the same brand. You cannot find any Prime 2 because it is discontinued and the Prime 4is difficult to get I'm almost any market around the world and the ones available are way over 2000€. So comparing these with Prime products is just stretching to find some points. Still these are great value for what they offer, the Pioneer are way more expensive. For me I am disappointed because I wanted a Prime 2 or a replacement and that is still to come

I myself like this controller because it reminds me of a XdJ-Xz but smaller. It’s about the same weight as a ddj-1000. I had surgery on my neck and caused me to be weak in one of my arms. I currently have a Ddj-SZ and it’s massive and heavy. The Prime 4 is around the same weight as the SZ. So having a smaller and less weight 4 channel controller is best for me.

You are right CT! The price is the issue. I will add that the build is also an issue. As great as both the Prime 4 and Prime 2 is Denon belly flop this one. On top of that, they discontinued the Prime 2. For this? As excited as I was about the leak, after seeing it I will not buy it. I rather keep my DDJ 800 and save for the DDJ 1000. This is not a good look for Denon.

Thanks for the video. I'm waiting on my Prime Go to arrive after purchasing it in September. After seeing this, I'm glad I made a good decision. On other channels, people are describing the new Denon SC Live as a beginner's controller. For the price, I don't think so. Here in Australia the 2 sells for AU$2300. For two hundred more, you get the Rane One. The Reloop Mixon 8 Pro costs $1500 AUD. It has great features and it claims to use both djay and Serato simultaneously. See if you can review it please.

hi! i come from an old Stanton sc-s4dj stand alone being that i am a guitarist doing dj sets only to get some extra gain. now i'm thinking to upgrade to a denon stand alone... i was wonderng wich one between prime go and prime 2 and ... they discontinued prime 2 and come out with this sc serie. the prime prices are grown in these years ... the sc are with promotional prices. so they sell for 700 euro a mixstream 1000 a sc2 1300 a prime go and also 1.300 euros a sc4 i'd prefer a prime because of ethernet port (to link it with my akai force) and aux in options. sc 2 has no aux in ! so i was thinking of a prime 2 even if discontinued. could it be a bad bet or do you think (for stand alone use) could be still a good choice ?

Hey bro, I’m at 5.45 where you show that when you move the crossfader over from the left to right, there’s a good few mms of travel, before you hear the sound of the song. This is a massive red flag for me. Do you know if the Prime 4 plus is any better? Because that was the other standalone I was looking at. Was going to go with sc live 4 for now but if the crossfader transition, is better on prime 4 then I’ll probably go with that.

Nice balanced review. You were nicer to them than I would have been. To me these miss the mark so hard it hurts, especially as a fan of the Engine OS. The Live 4 is priced to close to the Prime 4 and looks to be a huge step down, and the Live 2 is double the price of Mixstream Pro and doesn't really look like much of an upgrade.

It's a nice unit if I had to use one..but the Jogs are still too small for my taste. I don't need full 12" but.. a bit bigger. I guess that's what the flagship model has?? Pretty nice screen and good it's all integrated. I wonder if you have to restart it like my windows machine every once in a while. That fader is going to piss a lot of people off. No cut in / curve adjust???? I would never consider using Amazon at all for any service. Just me...and my Vinyl collection - I try to rip 10 cuts a week from my collection for new gigs and mixes. It's a modest effort to get those things digitized.

We all know, and you CT mentioned this in a past product review that supply chain challenges have increased prices. However, this price point is too high, so I agree.that they should lower the price point. Now, a question. If the brand name was Pioneer would we be saying the same thing knowing some of their price points are ridiculously high. Although I would given Pioneer their props on the DDJ 1000, that was reasonably priced, IMO.

I think this controller would've done better if it were released under Numark's brand. Numark is known for making equipment that either is entry level with pro features (Mixstream Pro and Mixtrack Platinum), or fits just in the gap between midrange and pro (NV and NS6ii). This controller is right under the Prime 4 in terms of functionality, so this exact layout with the Numark brand and 200-300 less on the price might've caused more of a stir and positive results. Instead, we're all left confused about where it fits in the Denon line and if it's worth putting the money up.

There’s a couple more issues with where this sits in the market. The cost of components today versus if this was released tome to two years ago (if that were even possible), and it’s feature set for the cost. This is not a strong product offering. I feel it’s a step backward based upon its price point for Denon DJ. It does also compete with the used products on the market. I feel this will be a tough sell at $1,500.00. I’m really curious to see how it is received upon release for sale. While not every piece of DJ gear fits my use cases, I have people ask me for recommendations. I enjoy learning about all DJ and sound gear. This will be difficult for me to recommend based upon what I have learned about it.

Definitely right about the price point... the deal breaker for me would be spending all that money and not having any DVS compatibility or ability to add to cdjs.... you mentioned the jogs are like the new numarks and I really don't like those funny thing is I prefer the rev 1 jog over the more expensive numarks... I'll be fair and give a big plus for Denon if the effects is just a switch knob with labels... I tried the Prime 4 and I thought the effects section was horrendous really cumbersome to switch through something on a digital display, the Prime 4 is something that I would just leave one effect on just kind of set it and forget it... the big deal breaker to me though is definitely a four channel mixer that just doesn't really seem to feel like a true 4 channel mixer, the hardware is lacking

I'm with you CT. The Prime 4 is $300 more, but consider the price difference over the life of the unit. If you get 3 years out of it, $300 is about $8.30 per month more for the Prime 4 which is a much better unit. Of course some people are more price-sensitive than others and some might be struggling just to afford the SC 4.

"Easy to use" just a term used to describe a Pioneer user experience on a Denon device. I think they made this to woo Pioneer users. Look at it, bland to the eye, everything basic like a Pioneer device (mixer). Pointless Serato control, I mean it's a "Standalone" device. It's for Pioneer users.. Only just what you need to mix tracks together without a future set of features and premium in mind.

But as price on hardware goes, like they say, buyer beware. I was never on the DDJ1000 bandwagon so these two new Denons don't float my boat. But the price is a little high on non- moving platters and puny wheels so I'd never consider them. Plus I dont think they have a 2TB storage bay either.

An epic Denon fail on this. I'll stick with my P4 & whilst I know the SC Live 4 isn't meant to be an upgrade, it doesn't appeal to beginners who are wanting to upgrade either. For a little more, you get the P4 & for much less you get the Mixstream Pro (beginners/bedroom/semi-pro backup). What a momentous fail by Denon! Would have been far better making an upgrade option for the P4 - namely a unit with bigger jogs, better quality knobs & faders & definitely a unit with better paint finish. These units won't sell well IMO.

Everybody hating on it, but the modified layout alone adapting to closer cdj mixer setup is a selling feature. Remember how ddj 400 sold so much just for this reason.

Awesome review CT. This appears to be an overpriced cheaper version of the Prime 4. I don't see this doing well at all unless there is a significant price drop.

Hi Mate,. SC Live Prices is absolutely OK. SC Live 4, 600 - 700€ cheaper, than Prime4. The same category as SC Live 2 is (for example XDJ RR, RX2). Sc Live 1299€ (1099€ New price), XDJ RR 1200 - 1300€. And now compare the features, performance and other options between the two DJ equipment. An incomparably better device and the winner of this comparison will be SC Live 2. (Same Price). Today is SC Live 2 100 - 200 cheaper than RR.

As the saying goes, "Caught between a Prime rock and a Stream hard place": priced too close to the Prime 4/2 to make financial sense yet to reduce them 1k/sub 1k would kill the Mixstream!!!

They are capitalizing on the Twitch and Tiktok DJ's of the world. That's it.. That's the ONLY market this makes sense for.

Neither of these products make any sense. If entry level is the target audience, the Mixstream pro already exists for this segment with nearly the same features and a way better price point than the SC2, and the Prime4 is a way better option for almost the same money as the SC4. I don't get it. I'm a Denon DJ guy and use their products almost exclusively, but I don't get these devices.

For me it's a downgrade from the MCX8000 or Prime 4. USB and SD cards on the back? really! Limited connections. Sorry for my opinion.

The street price will be lower than $1599. A 7” screen is only OK for a single deck. Four decks on a single 7” screen is just as ridiculous as DJ-ing on a 7” laptop. That’s barely bigger than a phone screen. It screams “budget model”. Funny that Pioneer has an all-in-one with a much better screen … cuz an all-in-one is the only time I’d actually rather use Denon than Pioneer.

I've been saying all along, speakers built in a professional device is a waste. This is a downgrade for Prime owners. If you are a PRIME owner this is not for you.

I can't really see where this product fits, even at the new lower price... horrible mic implementation, loose 1 for aux use, no inputs for the 4ch "mixer" ... just don't see how this would really be usable for most people.... as for home/bedroom DJs starting out, I still see it as a total FAIL, the features just don't seem any good to me from ANY perspective, not at well over 1000$ ... for new DJs just starting, I feel there are better options for less....and for this price range I feel there's a lot of much better options... I love Denon, but they need to have a clear divide between entry level gear, and pro-sumer gear, as well as a divide between engine/prime gear, and hopefully some really well implemented Serato gear.... love my MC7000, and the prime stuff is all legit... but seems like they've kinda missed the mark lately, this release missed the broad side of the barn in my opinion...
