Thanks Jamie

You all probably dont give a shit but does anybody know a trick to get back into an Instagram account..? I somehow lost my account password. I love any assistance you can offer me.

@Axl Erick instablaster =)

[@axlerick4456]

@Hendrix Sergio I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im in the hacking process now. Takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@Mdnesseptx]

That was my question... Also I noticed that you can only search history tracks. A search in a specific folder or all would be awesome.

[@coreymitchem9355]

Wow, that’s awesome!! What will they think of next!!

[@DMulabiTalejan]

Amaaaazing. Thanks for the tutorial and to Denon for advanced tech.

[@Crossfader]

Thanks David, was our pleasure!

[@GeorgeBeyond]

Thank you for this helpful video!

[@bboymac84]

I hope the have searches to narrow just to specific folders liked Serato or Traktor. Makes search much easier

[@Crossfader]

That would be a cool feature to have!

[@Mdnesseptx]

I found a solution to this.... Experiment: go to your PC...Engine OS... From your Ext. Hard Drive or USB .Open the folder with tracks that you want...now go to Collections in Engine Prim...create a crate.. for ex:70s... You should still have your track list on the right.... Highlight all by using CNTRL A....now drag and drop them all to the new Collections crate on the left you created...(# of tracks in Red Circle.) BOOM! IN YOUR COLLECTION LIST.. NEXT: INSERT your ext drive or USB to your prime controller...tracks ADDED should be in collections CRATE and now ALL TRACKS should be in search LIST as well. Repeat this and now you can search ALL or Crate Folder... You can create a Seperate folder on your drive...and just copy ALL your folders/tracks into one single folder...ALL...Search..BOOYA.. Moving tracks from external hard drive to Engine OS software's Collection Crate is the Answer.

@@Mdnesseptx can you do video of this?

[@Mdnesseptx]

@@bboymac84if you really want access this feature ...just follow the instructions. I dont do vids. Let me know if you need help.

[@bboymac84]

@@Mdnesseptx nope doesn’t work. They need to update it to work exactly as I explained it!!

[@ruk2023--]

For us Rekordbox people, the related tracks window is actually pretty good at doing this legwork for you as well. It has its own settings menu which is pretty comprehensive.

[@Crossfader]

Related tracks is a great tool!

[@Rumarlan]

Wow this is a really helpful video and I feel like it’s going to help a lot of Djs including me lol. Awesome vid Crossfader 🔥

[@Crossfader]

Thanks Romarlo!

[@Rumarlan]

Crossfader my pleasure 😊

[@DJSt3rling]

You have to be careful mixing songs by key. Just like loops, your mix can become extremely monotonous if you stay in 1 key for too long. For most, I'd suggest ignoring the key and referencing similar BPM's instead.

[@P4boot]

You're right, mixing in key is overrated..

[@frankbaldemar9827]

@@P4boot Nope. You just need to know how to hack mixing in key.

[@robertschnobert9090]

[@selenegajraj8663]

You should do a live set with the denon dj Sc6000 & X1850 prime that would be so cool...

[@Crossfader]

When we get them, we will!

[@selenegajraj8663]

Thank you.

[@youtubeuniversity.]

Great Video and Info. Thanx. Stay Blessed 🙏

[@BabaRah0101]

Is it possible to just filter search in one playlist and nooooot the whole USB?

[@OscarrCarr]

Me 1 second in: Loop Me 2 seconds in: ight imma head out

[@adejong]

Great explanation! Really helpful

[@Crossfader]

Cheers Anna!

[@CDJPRODJ]

Related track by mood & vibe compatible to the master playing track. This feature needs to be added to all Denon Players asap. Also smart crates:)

[@djdanam]

came here hoping to find exactly this

[@jacobsilberg9804]

Can you organize by bpm when streaming a Tidal playlist?

[@bboymac84]

I wish they ca narrow it to the folder rather than the who00o0o0le USB drive. Thats just too big to search and narrow down. They need to fix this!! ASAP!!

[@Izzy-qf1do]

Love my prime 2

[@sravan1997]

That was really helpful :D

[@Crossfader]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@brianfox8563]

Suggestion for video. Moving from serato to prime. I am about to do this, and I Video would be super helpful.

[@Crossfader]

It's in the works, you can read our full guide on how to transfer over here! wearecrossfader.co.uk/blog/getting-started-with-denon-dj-engine-prime/

Wow! Thank you!

[@Crossfader]

You're welcome!

[@paulmusgrave1022]

Just got my Prime 4 and Wow it's amazing I don't know if I'm doing something wrong but I can make a playlist but can't find any info on creating Crate function for my selection of tracks for a session does anyone know why I can't find Crate in the library I have a 1Tb SSD built into the prime 4 is there something I'm not doing

[@sarrasaidi9219]

Can you search just within a playlist or folder you prepared beforehand?

[@Mdnesseptx]

So the Search only works only for tracks in your History...correct??

[@KOOSHA-t3j]

Hey :) thanks for your informative video . Ne completely different question I have and would be very happy if you could help me there: would you recommend 2 x JBL Partybox 1000 in combination with Prime 4 or SC6000 as a PA system? because they are easier to transport thought me get them to me but unfortunately do not know me technically with it . Would be happy about a short feedback. Kind regards

[@geethsuranga1617]

Thanks💕👏

[@Crossfader]

Anytime! Thanks for watching!

[@GregUKnowIt]

Unrelated question here but are you aware if the onboard effects work with external turntables? It would be nice to have a video with the Prime 4 hooked up to some external turntables as it is impossible to find anywhere else. Great video nonetheless.

[@Crossfader]

Sadly not, only the filter works with external sources!

[@odalisgarcia6829]

it is posible to search for a song like you do in serato, all files search?

[@Mdnesseptx]

That was my question... Also I noticed that you can only search history tracks. A search for a specific folder or all would be awesome.

[@tomasdada3324]

wow super video!

[@Crossfader]

Thanks :)

[@ToniRawGazer]

Hi I’ve noticed that I can’t through beatport link. Is there another way of doing this

[@djdee607]

So it's no way to have this automated like related tracks in rekordbox? Am looking at a new controller and the idea of an all in one is appealing but the related tracks in rekordbox is extremely useful especially after the long year and a half break from djing due to pandemic, brain gets stuck very often. Not sure if this is available in the pioneer all in one systems but if am not mistaken the pioneer don't have hard drive bay which is a massive plus for me in the denon gear.

[@simonboyes2550]

I would like to have seen the process to load the track to the deck and if there is more than one way to do it

[@Crossfader]

You can either press the dedicated load buttons or swipe the track on screen and press which deck you wish to load to!

[@ellyXtreem]

is your logo cutomized on those jog wheels 1:00

[@Crossfader]

Yep, it's super simple to do too! We explain how in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eqWcqZqVjNtlask

[@RunTFC]

Only with USB sticks or external drives?

[@LuisMartinez-ev7lf]

why does it takes so long to go in computer mode on the Denon prime 4 controller to work with Serato Dj pro, would anybody help me out with this issue; thank you.

[@DANCEWITHSTYLEHK]

Where is the auto cue button on denon dj prime controller?

[@RunTFC]

Is there a way for this to work within Tidal, ie...similar songs?

[@enricomysliwietz4770]

A tutorial for Denon hardware eh. Let me just pick up my wallet and grab $2000 so I can buy it. Oh wait.

[@Crossfader]

Unfortunately good hardware isn't cheap, however the Prime GO is half that amount and still the same power!

Get finance on a set then? just got mine last week, you won't regret it 👌🏼
