Denon DJ SC LIVE 2 and SC LIVE 4: a New Direction? | Beatsource Tech

[@Mojaxx]

IMPORTANT UPDATE: Today, the day after the launch, Denon DJ have announced ‘corrected’ pricing for both units. SC LIVE 2: $1099 SC LIVE 4: $1299 So keep that in mind when you watch the video. At those prices I’d say they are MUCH more competitive with the rest of Denon DJ’s products, and I’m much happier to recommend the 4 (as that’s the only one I’ve used).

[@ClevelandTerry]

That’s a definite win for those keeping it 💯

[@Mojaxx]

@@djstuc Sorry, no. Unless a product is only sold in a different currency, it’s gonna be U.S dollar pricing. Most of our viewers are in the U.S, and the majority of people in other places know roughly what a dollar equates to in their own currency. And I don’t want to spend half my videos reeling off prices in multiple currencies!

[@BlueHawk80]

Here for EU/GER: Yesterday 1600€. Today 1300€. Using google is not that hard, people :) And btw @Mojaxx, I fully agree with you! With these prices, these units are HIGHLY competitive!

[@djkit]

@@djstuc £949 and £1129 in the UK 🇬🇧

[@benji.B-side]

That is a better price. But the flaws you picked, would still make it a no go for me. I do love Denon products though. BTW, That mix you did at my friends Smoove on TNCE, was class. Big Respect. I did a guest appearance on there and planning to do another. I thought I was subscribed already? Subscribed.

[@hyperfocus4866]

After watching the whole Review, your conclusion is SPOT ON! What are they thinking? Yes, they aren't "Prime" devices but they needed to be the successors to the Prime 4.

[@DMulabiTalejan]

You nailed it: "This is not the finest hour for the InMusic marketing team"!

[@omselection438]

Thanks for the update MoJaxx. Always a fantastically balanced review. I have a prime 4 and a prime go as a result of your reviews and Cleveland Terrys. Mostly yours because of the effort you and denon went into to dive deeply on features and collaborative feedback. You are an authentic marketing tool for this brand and its a pleasure to see you rocking it with well produced, authentic content. Keep on rockin.

[@DirtyJokesFan]

The opening lines were savage but you hit the nail on the head! Great progress with the weight loss too.

[@stylesdavis554]

what a review!!! thank you for keeping it 10000

[@hyperfocus4866]

Now this is the review i was waiting for.

[@lukeannett]

Don't really get the hate in the comments here. These controllers will do the job , have 100mm pitch faders and are what I'd recommend to any serious beginner dj. There are already far too many controllers without 100mm pitch faders. They are built to a budget, if you want better then get the Prime 4. 12v dc is actually handy for portability too. I'm actually considering the sc live 2 just for backup/portable decks.

[@Skaratak]

Far more than just "serious" beginner DJs. I do the job for 10+ years now and got a Live 4 to have an portable, yet powerful setup with integrated speakers and 12V powerbank compatibility. The LEDs in my Anubis DJ mask also benefit from SoundSwitch. Killer device.

[@grahamkelly8662]

@@Skaratakhow do you feel about the poor crossfader on sc live 4? There’s a lot of travel before you actually hear the music and this is a big problem for people that like to cut and scratch. Myself included. I think I could get used to it but I’ve just heard so many bad things about this device and it’s off putting 1 can’t connect turntables 2 travel on crossfader 3 scratchy is apparently bad on this device 4 jog wheel feels bad to lots 5 plastic cheap build 6 Too high price for what it is 7 people report of sound bleed. Say you playing song on deck 1 and are getting a song ready to mix in deck 2, even though the crossfader is all the way over to the left, you can hear the other song slightly and 1 guy said this happened after 1 month and 25 hours. I guess around 1 hour per day. This really worries me. Amazon did say I can buy and return if unhappy but I’d feel a certain way about opening an item that’s £1000 using and sending back because I don’t like the quality. I know I shouldn’t feel this way but I’d feel bad to send back because it can’t get sold as brand new or they clean and resell and someone is unhappy because there’s a fingerprint and they can tell it’s been used. 😂

[@sarahhall6208]

I love my Prime 4, from the moment I first got it out of the box and set it up right to now, 2 years later, the thing still amazes me how good it is, and with a prime Go for back up, perfect for everywhere I dj, Bar, Club & Twitch... I have for the last 2 years use the Prime 4 exclusively standalone but am tempted to use it with Serato for STEMS. I was kinda hoping Denon was going to release the SC Live Line up with Hardware support for STEMs / Serato like the New Rane appears to have, considering INMusic own both brands, that could have been just what the SC4 needed to make me consider buying one...

[@KevinBasher]

The Prime 4 (if available) goes for 2499€ in Europe. The SC Live 4 is priced at 1598€. I'd say that's more than enough of a difference to justify the SC Live 4's price. As to who the unit is for: I'd say it's aimed at a very broad range of home users. Lots of great features, and a more "industry standard" approach to the fx section - which many will prefer. The speakers are the only decision I don't get. But the unit is kind of a steal for what it does. Also, try to find a 4ch standalone, or a competing 2ch standalone that you can purchase right now. Availability is key in these times!

[@BlueHawk80]

1200€ by now… absolute steal

You hit the nail on the head with this review. I also feel that inflation has alot to do with it and I do believe that Demon's new flagship will be astronomically priced. Thank you for a great honest review.

[@radiod78]

The USP is the speakers. This is a genuine “all in one, use out of the box” DJ controller without the need for monitors to start with !!

[@DrudgeAudio]

I’m a pioneer user but have been converted to Denon. I’ve realised that pioneer seem to have remained dominant because DJs like familiarity and the innovation of the prime series is a huge change. Seems like Denon are reigning it in and are aiming for an approach like an updated XDJ unit than a Denon unit, which could bridge the gap between pioneer users and Denon gear. To me though, it seems a bit rough around the edges, it misses the polish that both pioneer and prime units have. Great that there’s a 4 channel standalone at a decent price, but I do think they’ve missed the mark with this a bit

[@josephmiller5429]

I definitely agree with you that these should have been around $1099 and $699 respectively to just really eat away at pioneers midrange market share. I have sc 5000s and a prime go. Can't see any compelling reason to get new hardware at this point however I would subscribe to a plan to keep getting new features on my existing stuff long term if that became a thing.

[@BlueHawk80]

We have now very fair prices. And 699 would be ridiculous btw.

[@FintanMoloney]

Fantastic overview with some great points as always Mojaxx. I fully agree with your point as to where does it fit in. When I read about it first and saw the price I was thinking why wouldn't you just hang on and go Prime 4 which is a beast of a controller. If this was priced around the €1000 euro mark it would make sense exactly as you said and it would put a lot of pressure on Pioneer in that price range of products.

[@jaybizm6562]

Nice video! Looks like a Mixstream Pro upgrade 🤔

[@camiloduartef]

I got a prime go. And I love it I just wish they have better fx, anyone as tried other options for the fx . Looking at the SC4 is not a bad deal

[@chinuarichardson8350]

I swear, the first company to make a standalone controller with a built in Sampler is gonna make a killing! That's the one feature I've been waiting for on these things!

Mojaxx, your judgment is on point. I was thinking the same thing about Denon Dj new dj units. Question is, do Denon Dj/InMusic knows what the dj industry needs or is they out of touch?

[@dna514514]

Out of touch

[@MichaelRoehr]

Some really odd choices by InMusic, it's a shame that Prime Go and 2 never got support in SDJ Pro and we still don't have a nice, beefy 2 channel option.

Thanks Man. Your right it is the worst kept secret

[@aringrey]

this feels painful somehow. How come there is so little cost reduction considering the amount of cut features. It just feels off, especially with the speakers. Denon really had people on their side when they started the prime range and this just feels like a step back

[@loganwoods7212]

wait you can’t switch between laptop and usb stick seemlessly? i might have to send my unit back.

[@OT83]

Great video and review Mojaxx! You pose a great question about the Denon SC Live series of controllers ; what target market is this for? IMO as DJs have transformed from the pandemic there is a new hybrid niche of performance DJs from bedroom and direct to venue. Is the series to get you from starting out to a festival or club? Is there a niche market of such? Only time will tell. But I can tell you there’s a lot of DJs online more than out at venues. Just my 2 cents.

[@gilboogie]

I think you missed one point: for anyone that’s just getting in to DJing or thinking about it,the $2000 they save on the cost of computer is huge. I myself haven’t updated to new hardware because I can not do both: new laptop and new controller. This might just be the way for me.

[@digitalbob]

Speaking as a prime user, you really still need a laptop to get the most out of the hardware. The laptop software is much simpler to add beatgrids and key info and to build playlists. You can do this on the hardware but it's definitely a clunky option over the prime laptop software. The same can be said for the top tier pioneer hardware

[@gilboogie]

@@digitalbob agreed, BUT the type of laptop/computer needed to prep tunes is not the same as a laptop used to run the actual DJ software/hardware.

[@digitalbob]

@@gilboogie true. Definitely don't need to spend a fortune on the laptop. I'm not dumpling on the prime gear, just thought it's worth considering before deciding to purchase them. I love my prime go, just add a couple of minirigs/sub and its the ultimate portable setup.

[@DjSideways]

Good honest review.....

[@alexzanderking1556]

It is somewhat disappointing with the areas you highlighted Mojax, as the limited responses from the pads is a deal breaker for me, I use the sc6000s love the pads bought a mixstream pro for my son, and the pads are far less responsive he wouldn't know the difference (and yes the mixstream is a far cheaper device so the quality was not expected to be the same) i was hoping the sc4 would have had simmiler pads to the sc6000, I may have missed it but can you connect the lc6000s to the sc4? If not that is another deal breaker for me. Not fussed about Amazon music service but does seem odd in terms of how it currently functions. I do prefer the layout of the sc live 4 to the prime 4 mainly due to it being a simmilar layout to the x1850 mixer. i hope the new prime 4 replacement has the same layout as the sc live 4 but just with the additional connections the prime 4 has. I think Denon was like we need to put some new stuff out there and this was the best they could do for the moment. I was tempted to get one but at present based on your review I may just hold of to see if the pad response can be improved and if the lc600s can be used with it.

[@DutchFreeman]

I don't know what the current prices of the Prime 4 are in the US and UK, but in eurozone they're going between 2.3k and 2.4k€, if they're in stock. Because most stores don't even have them in stock and didn't update their prices.

[@djsir901]

I saw Denon's trailer for the SC Live 4. It does work as a standalone mixer if you plug in a pair of LC6000s. I think Denon's intention was to replace the Prime 2 with the SC Live 4. The SC Live 2 is more like a full sized Prime Go.

[@Mojaxx]

That doesn’t make it a standalone mixer, that just makes it a standalone device with extra control surfaces added. Cool that it can do that, though, yes.

[@txetxubmx]

Sc live 2 or numark pro go? Sc live 2 with engine 3.3 has 23 fx...but the other things may be the same, it weights 2 kg more but in quality and speakers sounds are better? I will add a external battery to the sc live 2 to have a full portable like numark pro go. Thanks.

[@michaelusher7421]

Hi, I have got a new SC2. What I am struggling with the Engine DJ after it has converted from Virtual DJ is that I cannot get my search results for all of my tunes. I am embarrassed as I am sure it is so easy, but I cannot get my head around it. Any comments will be welcomed. Michael

I mean they do all the same. I sold my xdj rx1and im about buying denon because stream services. Hope u can help me..

[@envo]

Meh, I really like the mixer's FX section got right, like it's really a bottleneck for a lot of DJs who're used play on my Prime 2, but the rest of the device looks like a toy from the lower shelves. I'm still waiting for an upgraded Prime 4 or something similar with good connectivity and compatibility. Heck i would even switch to Pioneer if they would implement features like Ableton Link to their mixers and or standalone devices. (I'm a big fan of using custom loops and drum fills from ableton and utilizing the Ableton Push 2 on stage)

Prime 4 was about to challenge all brands to step up their controller game in 2019, but then COVID hit. If you look at Pioneer they released those new entry level controllers after the CDJ-3000s. I think this is just another plus one in that category for a market that is still reeling.

[@mike._.feliciano6782]

It's possible that the Live 4 would have been priced around $1,100 before the supply chain challenges and perhaps even now a slightly higher price would be expected but not $300 less than the Prime 4.

[@jonathanbrisard7360]

Denon should make a 4 channel Serato controller with large jog wheels like the SC6000. I don’t know why they’re sticking with standalone, people still like Serato and they have no controller competing against Pioneer (1000srt) & Rane (rane one)

It was for bedroom/streaming DJs who might be better than a DDJ-400 but when you have a product like the Prime 4 and THEN you have the Prime Go and you have the Numark... It's like bruh, why you making this? Seems like you're just wasting chips in the midst of a shortage! 🤦‍♂️

[@VoyageOne1]

The question I have is who exactly are these targeted towards? Most of these features (sans Amazon Music) are already available on the $600 Numark Mixstream Pro and that’s barely a year old. Not trying to sound like a hater as I own a Prime system but Denon dropped the ball.

Thanks for the review Mojaxx. I really don't know what Denon was thinking when they released these 2 toys. I said that because they are far from pro DJ gear. In addition, they discontinued the Prime 2. Why? When Pioneer discontinued the RX2 and kept the RR, I was floored. No one is buying the XDJ RR!! Nobody!!! I know they are trying to add a new market but not this way. If I was looking for Denon gear, I would have thought of the Prime 2, Prime GO or the Numark Mixstream Pro.

Just with a quick view. That said i am a novice, i come from a sc-s4dj Stanton and i'm thinking of an upgrade to my dj geear (actually i am a pro guitarist). I was wondering what to choose between prime go and prime 2 and ... i just choose the the prime 2 ... and it's discontinued. Do you think it would be, because of that, a bad choice? Or could work fine? Could upgrade with next engine firmware still? I also own a Akai force and tought to link the two for more dj options ... but without ethernet it would be maybe less stable as connection (in a closed environement full of cell phones i'm scared that wifi connection could fall as it happens with my behringer xr18 mixer .. :-/

Denon dropped the ball on these new controllers and will suffer as a result. They went cheap on the parts. Maybe because of parts availability but if that were the case, don't release something new until it's good and you can build it.

*yawns*, sure buddy.

2000€ in germany. Ufff

[@djfrankib45]

All they had to do is put speakers on the Prime 2, and Prime 4. 🤣🤣🤣

[@brianholland2916]

I'll stick to pioneer

[@poppoppy6946]

Sorry but built-in speakers 😆 🤣 😂

[@reggae-ONEtwenty]

what a piece of junk.......Thanks you for saving my life..."DJ saved My Life"

[@rjmn1]

This seems like a shit box tbh, pads that don't respond,no easy way to replace the crossfader- literally hardware lumped together from all the cheap controllers at inmusic.... Own sc5000m's- and love them- but this seems like a bit of a reach.

Why are they charging so much for this, only two buttons no display on the jogs, the mixer looks minimal nothing special, no standalone mixer. Come on Denon DJ, be better than composition

[@BlueHawk80]

wtf are you talking about? 1300 is a steal, there are more than "only two buttons", the mixer is much cleaner now, there is an Aux in which is perfectly fine for the intended target group. Just get a P4 and stfu.

Putting built in speakers on dj controller looks so amateur. Such a turn off

[@WillThaK]

There is a video surfing the web, that I shouldn’t trust these reviews. Just sayin’ lol

[@Mojaxx]

I’ll get him one day 😂
