I bought this and love it. Been using it at various gigs. No more laptop stress with usb cables, dodgy chargers, untimely OS updates etc. Loaded up a cheap SSD with 100GBs of music and serato/traktor/apple playlists and off we go! For music I didn't have I could hotspot my phone to connect Tidal streaming on the Prime. Fantastic piece of equipment!

I just ordered it but you know what, I've been preparing songs in engine software and it's just buggy. The beat grids are off on some songs. Also if I want to video mix I can't use serato.

Love this unit... my only gripe is that the price difference between this and the Prime 4 is honestly negligible since they're both over 1000 dollars, yet under 2000. If this unit was just under 1000, it'd be a steal.

The Prime 2 is a sweet unit, but ONLY working standlone, without external inputs (only AUX) and no Serato DJ Pro support, which is not enough for that premium price.

I was expecting the prime 4 mkII with full size jogs, but surely a nice touch from Denon..except the pirce. I would seriously consider switching to prime 2 if it was €999, (speaking for myself here), but since the price gap between prime 2 and 4 is “only” €300..I believe its worth paying the €300 extra.. well I hold on to my RX2 for now and see what the Pioneer DJ’s response will be. Perhaps sometimes in this life 🤣
@m-stat9

I agree the price gap is too small. They should have added real inputs, Sweep EFX and SDJ Pro support for that slightly smaller price. But your Prime 4 Mk2 request sounds just dumb. If you want big jog wheels, just get the SC5000/6000. The Prime 4 is already big enough, too big actually for many users and clubs.

But is it still supported? Will new prime firmware updates work on it? In case, instead, would it be possible with an sc-live 2 or 4 get to link the akai force and use abelton link (or somehow) ?

The Prime 2 really needs Serato DJ Pro support. So far, due to lacking external inputs, you only have the internal player and VDJ, that's it. Not enough to convience Pioneer controller guys to switch. As long there is no Serato, I won't buy this unit. The 7" is just too small for wedding gigs, where I need my laptop.

Is there any significant advantage/reason to purchase the Prime over the MCX8000? For the money, it seems to me it'd be better to buy the MCX8000 since it can seamlessly transition between stand-alone, software and external decks, yet works stand-alone just fine even if you don't want to use software or external desks. Am I missing something important? Also, will it import your data if you process your files using Mixed in Key?

Definitely. I'll give you my personal opinion. 1. You don't need to take a laptop with you, which means less baggage and fewer cables to connect. 2. If you have to share with other DJs or musicians the booth, it can be a little annoying having to take up less space for your own equipment, and for that, you would have to buy a laptop stand to fit more equipment in. 3. Also, related to point 1, you'll need only one socket to connect the controller's power and don't have to deal with a laptop brick. 4. If it concerns you that you are missing on two decks because you couldn't afford the Prime 4, don't bother, it's too expensive for a clunky way to interact with four decks. You can plug in the other two turntables to the Prime 2, you'll grow to hate having to switch decks with a button and the knobs staying in place between switches. In the long run, if you feel comfortable mixing with 4 decks, buy separate turntables.

Doesn't seem to be inputs to route sources to mixer channel stips, and no sampler.... big misses in my eyes....but for many this will be an awesome kit. I liked the Prime 4 aside from a few small things, mainly size and the screen looking fragile, this Prime 2 almost hit the mark... Wondering, if you have a SSD installed, is it easy to transfer a folder of new music onto the SSD in the unit from a usb stick? Gonna have to look closer at the Prime 4, and maybe just keep Serato and my MC7000 for now, and add one of the Prime SC series media players...

Prime 2 doesn't seem as small overall as it could be, and could use some of the 6000's efficient use of space. Also missing standard rear inputs. What are the dimensions on these prototypes? It seems like you went overboard on downsizing for the GO and insufficient on it for the Prime 2. I want something between the size of both of these about as big as a Versadeck, with full-size pitch faders at least, and no battery.

I have question about hot cues. I was trying Prime 2 today and there was one thing I couldn't figure out. Whe I use my MC3000 together with Virtual DJ I use a lot of Hot Cues. The cool thing is that each time I use any of my Hot Cues and then press CUE button music stops at the last Hot Cue I used instead of going back to "main" cue point ( the one next to PLAY button ). It's so annoying that in Prime 2 each time I am testing my Hot Cues I have to find the way to go to the one I like. For example I want to jump to one of them and prepare loop... If I just pres hot cue button It starts playing and I cant set the loop. I hope you understand what I mean. Is this possible to make Prime going back to last Hot Cue I used? I was testing only with original OS without updating.

@@renechang2406 so in RB and the whole CDJ/XDJ world, hot cues immediately play (think performance markers) whereas memory cues really allow you to skip quickly within a track to a mark where you pre-prepped without having the song playback. On CDJ/XDJs you can have up to 10 memory cues but hot cues depend on the gear you're playing off of.

cues .. work pretty much the same as pioneer kit. Loops are same functionality personally I prefer the Denon way with the dial for length FX Denon has a separate engine for each deck, where as pioneer has a shared one (on xdj-rx) Filters pioneer wins with 4, prime 2 just has hpf/lpf Denon pitch bend with buttons rather than platter side, which us hardest thing to get used to when swaping between imo

Most Important Question!!!!! Are they STILL using the Plastic Buttons on these controllers are did they upgrade to the metal buttons like Pioneer? I had the MC7000 and the Play/Cue buttons were junk. Both sides broke, the plastic housing cracked and would not work anymore. Denon wanted $200 to put NEW plastic buttons smh.

Pioneer DJ don't use metal buttons. They are just silver textured plastic. These buttons are also plastic but feel high quality, very similar to the Pioneer but square. We certainly didn't find any issue with using them :)

Hey Guys, I have a question concerning Streaming Services in DJ'ing. I have noticed, that all mayor Streaming Services normalize their Audio, cutting lows and highs down to make every song on an equal volume. This may be good for listening on the go, but unfortunately it takes away the "power" of the music. Does anybody know if the music is normalized or not using Steaming Services whithin DJ Software?
@jonlemmonmusic
@jonlemmonmusic 4 жыл бұрын
Hey this isn't actually true. What streaming services do is change the volume of the ENTIRE TRACK by a certain amount to make it the same volume as everything else. It's basically the same as turning the volume knob up or down before the track starts. Once the track starts, they don't mess with the volume anymore. So the dynamic range within each track is preserved and no power is taken away. This is the same as the "auto gain" feature which is on most DJ Software. But back to your original question, I doubt the services give the DJ software a modified version of the track. They would just supply the original track with the original volume, and then it's up to you whether or not you choose to use "auto gain" within your DJ software.

Depends on whether you feel you need to know the Pioneer workflow to make playing bars/clubs easier. If so, the RX2 will have the edge but if you don't intend to play out on someone else's kit, this batters the RX2 in so many ways. Slicer, key shift, onboard analysis, better looping and jumping functions (the RX2 will only do 16 beat jumps in standalone mode), in-joy displays, SATA bay.... Having said all that, I bought Pioneer! 😂

Todos los modelos xdj de Pioneer DJ trabajan con dos entradas USB además traen un sistema de efectos qué facilita los cambios cada vez que quieras aplicar efectos porque están al lado de los faders para comodidad del dj . Bueno a Denon dj le veo puntos buenos y malos en este equipo , ya depende de la persona que compre, miren información en internet pueden buscar antes de escoger y comprar. para los que buscan con serato pioneer tiene ddj 1000 con serato y xdj xz , que es un equipo con 4ch cuesta bastante pero trabaja con un mixer completo que tiene mucho para trabajar y es para usar con rekordbox y con serato

It's competing with the xdj-rx2. Pretty much same spec. The Denon has the better screen, storage and streaming support, the Rx let's you plug in turntables. The Denon has slightly more options on the FX, the pioneer on the mixer filters. That's it. The GO is to compete with the cheaper pioneer products.
@StefanInstall
@StefanInstall 4 жыл бұрын
@@steve40092 Yeah, totally agree. The Denon is technically better in every way but if you play out in clubs and bars on their kit (which is inevitably Pioneer), you might choose the less capable RX2 so you learn the Pioneer workflow because let's face it, playing is less stressful when you can use the system based on muscle memory and not have to work out how achieve the effect you're looking for each time. If I was a mobile DJ taking my own kit out with me for each gig, I'd go Prime 2 or 4 no question but as I'm not and as I use Pioneer's Nexus kit when I play out, I went. Pioneer (XZ) for my home kit to make the transition from bedroom to booth as smooth as possible even though the XZ isn't as capable as the Prime 4 in many regards.
