Have had SC6000s and x1850 since early august, and they have been absolutely incredible. Can’t believe I was originally waiting for Pioneer’s new players, what a joke those turned out to be.

[@Savage_7_99]

I have a ddj-1000 and I wish I had known more about Denon before I purchased. 😞😞

[@Mrmind81]

@@Savage_7_99 I did the same mistake, I bought the DDJ1000 but I only use them for a week. I didn´t like them that much(my personal opinion). I did send them back and decide to go ahead with the Denon´s sc6000 and the x1850. Was the best decision I had .

Imagine being dumb enough to think the 3000s are a joke lmao I’m guessing you play open format or genres where DJs think people came to see them ruin songs by manipulating them too much?

We bought two sc6000m and our DJ'S love em. DJ'S set the standard not the clubs... these totally blow away the competition.

[@thewebsiteisdown7720]

I never realized how boring my Nexus setup had become until switching to Prime (sc6000s, x1850). Denon gear is just more fun to use and far easier to get creative live.

[@halcyondaystunes]

If i came from another planet and knew nothing of Pioneer DJs dominance in this market and saw reviews for these and the CDJ 3000s I'm pretty sure which one I would choose... These are incredible machines...and I've only had the sc5000's...I know Pioneer DJ kept their new cdj's familiar to the previous ones but they have really dropped the ball this time. I'd love to see Denon DJ make more in roads in to more clubs. Great review mate. Honest as always.

[@hyperfocus4866]

Only the Sc5000s ;) Still it great players now. These just are improvements to those that don't like flashy lights.

[@dezfyah]

17:21 Great comment on the club standard vs everybody else. Thank you for your honesty. It's very encouraging to hear. 19:10 "...the roots of djing into media players", great line because in the age of modernity there are still some core things that should never let you forget how it all got started.

[@yourusernameeludesme8609]

Pioneer will remain the club standard (for now) but IMO not for long. They’ve only been the industry standard because no player has bettered it until now. what Denon have done is Released a superior player for a cheaper price to capture the new generation of DJ’s who will buy them and soon demand them in clubs. Pioneer have really got a battle now and will have to lower prices or add features which they’ve clearly struggled/ haven’t bothered with the latter.

[@ericlloyd7981]

After many years have had the rare chance to purchase a pair of NXS2 last month, was outraged they sold to someone else just a day before, during my research of Denon Prime I was very impressed with Engine OS, a few days ago I scored a Prime Go and still in disbelief its in my possession more so than if I had those NXS2 tanks, I've never been more confident I made the right decision when it comes to electronics or toys in general.

[@anishti600]

This is the Flag ship Review!!!! Thank you Mojaxx for honest opinions u inspire us @thunder domain UK & Africa!

[@BOBBYdigital31]

I have a prime 4 just got it in the mail last week. Man I am impressed with this tech. I used to spin on vinyl 20 years ago. In fact I still have my mint condition 1200's and my rane mp2016. I quit the scene because I got married and had 3 kids and life just took over. Now I need a hobby and am jumping back in just for fun and a release. Man I love it. Music is my thing. I want to teach my son so I bought the prime 4 with the intention of giving it to him because the tech just make everything so user friendly. In fact too easy, however great to teach on because tracks are all visualized now. After watching this video I think I'm gonna buy a set of sc6000's too because the small jogs on the prime 4 kind of feel off and I want that pro feel again. Time to run up the credit card again lol. Wife is gonna be pissed!

[@Bradmopar]

Well worth the wait for the full review. I think your reviews hold more weight because your out there with the rest of the DJ’s working or streaming. Super valid points about “club standard”.

[@soneil12]

I got a pair of the SC6000M decks a few months ago after owning CDJs for a decade (and regularly using the latest CDJs in clubs). I'm just blown away by how much better they are. About a year ago I got a new DJM mixer and now I'm wishing I'd gotten myself a Denon mixer instead. I absolutely love these decks.

[@hyperfocus4866]

I own the SC5000M and i would never go back to static jogwheels. What do you like so much about the 6000M?

[@soneil12]

@@hyperfocus4866 I never used the 5000 so I don't really know what's different. From what I've heard from people who have used both, Denon pretty much took all the things that were great in the the 5000s and improved on them. I just know I absolutely love the 6000Ms. Especially compared to the overpriced and under features Pioneer CDJ3000.

I can always breathe a sigh of relief when I see that you've reviewed something I'm genuinely interested in purchasing. So, thanks for your honest and straightforward (no bs) thoughts, legit. With that said, I was hoping for a somewhat deeper dive into the, "...both players are dual layer devices which means you have control of and outputs for two separate decks in the same unit...you are getting two decks in one here...with instant doubling between layers," aspect. I mean, I get what you're saying, I was just hoping for a little more elaboration into that one aspect of the player. Anyways, regardless, thanks, man. Cheers.

Great review!

[@DaDudeClub]

There's a little beach club next to me, also kinda friend w the owner. Has... the "club standard" setup. Anyway, I did a couple of gigs there in the past but this day I was in just as a client there when some cabling/mixer malfunctioned, he asked me if I can do smth abt it/help. His face when I've pulled out the PrimeGo from the car, fired it up ON BATTERY and then mobile streamed any request on the spot... priceless. Long story short - club owners often listen to their DJs. The "standards" ARE changing, as we speak. And, yes, even the Go is superior in so many ways and has an impeccable sound card that would suit any system. Truth is, I've waited for so long for the "standard" to improve I just got tired of waiting - exactly what Mojax said (and happened w me too) w the iPhone screen - I was on i4s, seen the 5 then I thought, I'm kinda scammed here - moved to Samsung. Never looked back. Got the all-in-one P4 as it suits my (mobile) needs better, w the Go being my absolute fav toy in decades. It's a thing that if their competitors would've ever came up w it 1st, would've charged at least triple for it. And we all know it.

[@baldmandj4559]

Great review Chris, finally someone willing to call out the notion of 'industry standard' when none of us have gigs 👏 Bought my 6000s in August, best gear decision I've ever made. Now if only Denon can release a future firmware with a 3/2 fx time for my x1850....

[@qclearanceultraviolet4974]

Dope. I got the SC6000s. I don't really pine for the M's "real vinyl" but I would totally go for an SC6000 player with the S4 Mk3 style motorized jogs, if only NI would licence them to Denon - they have a great way to control the damping even in static mode.

[@dezfyah]

Word FAM!!!!

[@m-stat9]

I couldn't agree more. The placement of those (tiny) Hot Cue buttons on the "new dimensions" is just bullcrap and their excuses even more so. Pioneer, never again.

[@PrimiusLovin]

I never played on them but I can already tell that I prefer pads at the bottom, on any player/controller!

[@DidierWolfs]

That was my concern on CDJ 3000. I have one since few month and I like the pads under the screen. I can’t tell if it’s better there than on the Denon’s but at least, I like their place on the 3000’s. Now, my heart is in between getting a second 3000 or sell mine and get a pair of 6000 M. Everything is pushing me to get the 6000 M but the only issue I have (in my head at least) is Engine Prime and if I have to go play in a club, how to work the library between Engine and Rekordbox on a way or the other and without having to do X manipulations to get it working smoothly.

[@DocFUNKist]

@@DidierWolfs correct me if I’m wrong… the new Mixed in key app… can set a valid Cues For both…. Maybe don’t use any just use MIK to prep your sets… I honestly feel for you and the dilemma but if I was you… I’ll take what I love to use. Eg… If you want the Denon (I would have in this case as it’s a no brainier in terms of features/prices) I’ll adapt… ask about the club equipment and prepare playlist before head… can’t be that difficult and I’m pretty sure they can read most information between them softwares… other option is to use VIRTUAL DJ for all of them and it’s wayyyyyyy better than every DJ software ever made. And it would work like charm with both!!! In regards to the pads location… I might be question of getting used to them… I personally prefer where they have always been… but maybe because I’m also conditioned for that location

Finally!!! 😆. Thanks for the review and I really appreciate you telling everyone that you are not a fan boy for one particular brand as a few are. The M is dope. I've had the 3500s, 3700s, and the 3900s and thought Denon nailed it with the SC3900s. The 6000M is on another level and beyond the competition. The SC3900 had a 9" vinyl and I thought those were doable for any turntable-centric dj. Great review Mojaxx 👏.

[@levraidesir]

Thanks for the review, both player look very nice ! I had a question about the digital output. What are they used for ? (For instance linking the sound to a device that control the light?)

Hey brother, loving your reviews and this channel in general. I have a question re the SC6000/6000M paired with a rotary mixer, which rotary do you feel would work best with them? I've seen your review on the Rane MP2015 but wonder if there's any others that would pair well? I'm in Australia and am hearing great things about the Condesa range as well, thats in advance!

[@adrianbarker9547]

Great video. How easy is to flip back and fourth between Rekord Box and DJ engine with the same music drive. Is the data for dj engine stored separately to the audio and rekordbox data or will you be better off using a separate drive? In a nutshell can you have one drive that can be used between both Pioneer and Denon systems with full functionality of both?

[@RudefoodArchive]

Amazing review. Anyone know how easy it is to use Rekordbox processed tracks with it? And how does the pitch bending work? Is it easy to simply change the pitch of a track from say Amaj to Cmaj?

[@gilboogie]

Great review. I love the look of these decks. Just wish I had the money... and extra space.. and need for them. LOL. Im good with my Denon MC7000 Controller and 1200's. @mojaxx I get what your saying about the 1850 mixer but at $1100 how does it stand up to the DJM 750MKII which would be its closest competitor at that price point.

[@DanielleKingdjdinosaur]

when the first prime series came out the jogs were too stiff but then the spinning platters came out and now the larger spinning jogs make these way better and as im considering new media players its these or the Ranes.

Great video review, thank you so much Mojaxx!! BUT one important topic I'd really appreciate your thoughts on: as much as you love the 6000Ms, how much more worth it are they over the 5000Ms? Price savings on the 5000Ms vs Features/Form Factor on the 6000Ms and I'm having difficulty reaching a clear decision.

[@Musical.Maze.1]

Great review, many thanks! Please keep in mind that this channel of yours, is watching by viewers and subscribers from all over the world. The only "negative" in your reviews is the fact that you speak too fast and viewers who are not native English and don't have that English accent, might have problems of understanding you 100%. Otherwise all of your reviews are excellent!

[@HappytubsDoncaster]

my first experience going from technice to cd was on the sc3500 loved them but build quality let them down. denon seem to be smashing it right now.

[@scratch1200s]

I love rewatching this! Any chance you know whether or not these players, and the previous gen iterations, are able to change the key of a track in standalone mode? It would be amazing if they can do so, in the same manner that one can change the key of a track within serato dj pro.

[@TheBassOtter]

Click on the screen where it shows the key ie 4A and it’ll popup option to change keys

[@cashmasters99]

Hopefully the result of no DJs at the club in the pandemic can allow for Denon to break into the scene more. My problem us that where I live those guys are more old school and still dj on old cdj 1000s with serato sometimes lol

[@yourusernameeludesme8609]

I’ve got the SC6000 normal version wasn’t really interested in the manual version as I though this leaned towards the Scratch DJ’s. Could anybody confirm is this is an accurate assumption. And if you have them how do you find them

[@mattshepherd1976]

Great review, its certainly made me stop and think about what I'm going to go for.....Quick question for anyone I guess, do you notice a great deal of difference between the 5000m and the 6000m. There's a used set up for 2k with the sc5000M and the X1800 that would save me a good 1200. thanks from a middle aged man with two kids wrestling with spending an extra grand of the kids university fund :)

[@TradingTheta89]

Do these have a manual loop adjustment feature like the pioneer gear has? When you're in a loop, you can press either the "in" or "out" and adjust the loop length with the jog wheel on the pioneer. Is this possible on the sc6000 prime? Huge feature that must be included

[@BrainstormCrib]

Can 6000's active loops be adjusted at the end points using the plater like the CDJs?

[@alistaford777]

Can you please do a review comparison of the Denon Dj SC6000M vs Pioneer DJ PLX-CRSS12

[@djtheob01]

I love the pitch bend buttons but it would be nice to have the ability to change (in the settings) how they respond (like in Traktor) a) A standard pitch curve b) A pitch curve that starts off slow and gets faster the longer you hold the button down

[@DJNESSY.]

Can you bring it back that extra second or 2 from the begining of the track so you can beat match in vinyl mode

[@PrimiusLovin]

17:28 well pointed out. And I too look back and think how could anyone browse for tracks and mix without a touchscreen and on-screen keyboard on the even smaller screen of CDJs 2000? I mean, rotary dials for input are so 90's! At least Pioneer has caught up with the times although they're targeting the CDJ3000 to a different audience/wallet.

@They Caged Non yes it is 1 inch bigger but thats the control surface from 7 to 8. im talking about the very base size bud. even the holes on motor are the same. comparing the platters i see a wall on the 8 and slope on the 7 making the control surface that extra size. side by side they look the same and i believe the width of both units has the same cutout dimensions. just larger screen on the 6km...

[@djvoid1]

I have a 6000m and a nexus 2 cdj and I hate to say this as i love the 6000m, but when comparing the digital outputs of both, the Nexus 2 has a better soundstage and sharper transients. It seems like they should be identical (especially at 0 pitch and no master tempo) but there's an audible difference. Possibly it's attributable to the subtle 'wobble' of the platter being detected and smearing the audio somewhat. I'm keen to do the same test with the standard sc6000s also as if the result is the same, then the cause lies outside the specifics of the 6000m.

My only real question is, how do the effects on the X1800\X1850 compare to the DB4...as far as I know Denon is the only company with matrix input switching, as a matter of fact I think they started it years ago on older models. But, A&H has on the DB4, plus those effects are astonishing...but, its almost a 10 year old mixer.

Seems like the tech is better on the 6000s but library management in Engine is still lacking. Also what's the deal with the motorized platter on the 6000Ms with no place to put a record? That being said, I am glad Pioneer has some competition though.

RGB on Denon with serato??

[@huwwackman_excel]

Sorry if you said this in the video, was so good i got caught up. I use nxs 2 set up. Can these be linked to pioneer gear and read RB cue points etc in stand alone via usb/ Thanks

[@huwwackman_excel]

@They Caged Non Thanks

Still waiting on HID mode on the SC5000's to work with Traktor Pro. Maybe they will finally do it with the SC6000's.

[@Odyseuss08]

well i wish the same but im sorry - wont happen 99%

[@m-stat9]

Dude, why is everyone still setting on Traktor? NI is pretty much dead. They only support their tiny amount of own controllers and that's it. Sad truth.

[@BlueHawk80]

HID will never come, neither for Denon nor Pioneer, because NI is pretty much dead and most DJs left.

[@UncleCatfish]

I'm hoping that motorized / spinning plates become a new standard

[@djductape]

Are these compatible with Serato yet?

[@Ravinstomper]

not sure yet bud but thinking on why would you want serato? what benefits are there which you can't get with this setup? i think id rather use engine (future update) as a sole yet faster searching library if i was to use a laptop again in my setup. we'd assign per deck what track we wanted or create on the fly playlists to auto load on to each deck connected to engine "cough -DJ- cough" software. otherwise this is all what serato would do anyways. ....vdj has a different approach on the screen estate but again I'd only use it as a search and play library!!

[@djductape]

Hi Stu, Serato would work like VDJ extending the screen and interactivity to the players. As nice as the standalone idea is. Denon has a lot to catch up on. 1. Smart crates. 2. Customizing the browser view, including resizing the information and customizing which metadata to display. 3. The browser view is far too small, especially with the digital keyboard pulled up. 4. Ability to hook up a keyboard that only works when in browser view. 5. Sample player. 6. No beat grid locking me down or screwing things up. I just DJ by ear. 7. Speed - I DJ on the fly, playing what's right at the moment, and I do not rely on playlists. With a large library, I can find and load songs much faster on a laptop. 8. I can go on but that's a start. With all that being said. I welcome a standalone experience that is less playlist orientated and more open format, on the fly oriented. I would love to ditch the computer for two smaller computers :)

[@konpadelic]

Anybody have tried using these players with lets say a DJM 900 nexus or DB4 mixers???? I wonder

[@m-stat9]

Wonder about what? They work with any mixer of course.

Love your reviews, Mojaxx - thanks very much. By the way - Ethernet is pronounced like "Eethernet", if that makes sense,. Like Epoxy, Ear, or Eradicate. Same with beta.(sounds like Beeta). One other thing - who in their right mind would give this video a thumbs down???

[@m-stat9]

Pioneer fanboys of course. The ones calling us "peasants" and "bedroomers" for years. Now they got their Karma.

[@mrrayner8457]

@@m-stat9 You're way too invested in a brand. I'd probably chill out a bit.

[@mrrayner8457]

I say Epoxy and Eradicate like Mojaxx says Ethernet, and Beta is pronounced Bay-ta. Different strokes though, there are heathens who call scones "sconns"...

@@mrrayner8457 Alway pronouce scones sconnes - whats wrong with you, man? Beta is always pronounced beta, not bay-ta. Lord above - where did you go to school? LOL
