I know these are older video's but I just wanted to say "thank you". Im disabled, so money is really tight and value for money is super important to me. Because im stuck in the house a lot im considering starting a youtube channel for DJ'ing and I've been wanting to upgrade my current setup. As much as I love pioneer...i can't afford to upgrade my current stuff. You're Denon DJ videos have really helped me see the difference and the the value Denon provides is almost too good to be true. I'm currently getting some money together but I think i'm definitely going to go with the Denon 1850 mixer and 2 SC6000's (and possible add the LC6000 later). Again, I can't thank you enough for your Denon demonstration vids.

This seems to be Denon's way of bridging the gap between using players + a Mixer, and using DJ controllers. A lot of these "New" features aren't really new at all (Changing EQ type, Deck Layering, etc...). Within Traktor for example you can change the filter type and the EQ and it has over 30 effects and it has the layering feature if you use something like their Kontrol S4. Denon seems to be mixing these two things together, and the main big difference between Denons new gear and a Traktor controller seems to be that you don't have to use them with a laptop. So while Denon did a great job with their new gear, they didn't necessarily invent the wheel again. they simply took features that were already thought of and they implemented them into new gear. So well done Denon but I think we still need to give credit where credit is due.

I used to love Traktor. Their refusal to compete with something that could even be CONSIDERED as a DENON replacement - screw them. Ill give em a shot when they (don't) add HID to x1800 and SCM5000 like they swear they will

Native didn't necessarily invent the wheel again too, they should give credit to Lexicon, Yamaha, EMT, Dynacord for the effects.

An interesting topic would be the future of djing and EDM in general from your perspective. Do djs need to have a musical backround and bring more live instruments with them in order to distinguish ? Does a complete dj need to handle both vinyls and digital equipment and what do the audience demand in different locations and venues around the globe? Finally is it bless that making and playing music has been approachable to everyone or a curse as upcoming djs and producers are thousands now and we see tons of bad music / mixes everyday deluging the music - stream sites (along with great music of course). Thank you ! (Your vlog is amazing and helps musicians be more aware of the music industry. Keep it going. I feel that every week I learn something new - useful and that I prevent myself from many mistakes I would probably do otherwise.) Greetings from Greece

For the MCX 8000 you use the Engine software. The prime series uses the Engine Prime software, wich is much better then the Engine software. Its more stable and has a nicer UI as well as more features. You can download it and try it out.

When should I buy an improved mixer, as I am an experienced DJ, been doing it for almost 2 years now.
@MiguelArtz7 жыл бұрын
I think you should buy one when u need one. I've been mixing since january and I only mix for myself so I don't need a mixer with insane audio output and stuff. I have a DDJ-RR and that's more than enough for me atm. If you play for big crowds and you think that your mixer or controller doesn't have the features you need or the audio quality you need then upgrade
@DANGERprone987 жыл бұрын
MKMusic i was in that situation to! just go for the rr because rb feels so cheap and small, with the rr you have everything you need i bought the sr 3 years ago when i just started to dj and i'm still using it today!
@MiguelArtz7 жыл бұрын
I'd recommend buying the cheap model first because you have no experience. I started with a DDJ SB2 so I can't compare RB and RR that good but these are the things why I upgraded: -I wanted to see the master volume level on the controller -more fx knobs -more pads -fell in love with the fx pads -play/pause/cue buttons like on a cdj But the thing is that the RB for example has pad fx already, play/pause/cue buttons and it looks like there are more pads aswell so seeing the master level and the fx knobs would have been the only reasons left...buuut I didnt know that the rekordbox effects were so basic so since I started using the RR I only use the pad fx and rarely use the fx knobs so fx knobs aren't really needed anymore so now the only main reason would be the master volume level but that's not really important that was just a small detail for me. So all in all I'd recommend the RB for beginners even though the RR has more buttons that control every single thing within rekordbox, a better sound quality, more outputs and feels/looks better (especially the jogwheel) that's not needed for a beginner who wants to start djing and I'm sure you can do the exact same things I'm doing on my RR with a RB Ok now I come back to the question In my opinion the quality is worth the price. but if it's worth saving for it is your choice I kinda listed the advantages that u would have but you should consider that saving for a few months (or I don't know how long) will mean that you can't start djing and when I bought my first controller I couldn't wait I just wanted to start so yea consider the waiting time and maybe the risk that you don't like djing and then just wasted the money
@jankruger89157 жыл бұрын
My first Controller was the DDJ-RB its a fun little mixer, especially usefull for beginners. What I did is to remap the IN/OUT to Autoloop, that is easly done in Rekordbox. Now I own a Denon MCX-8000 wich is awesome. I can realy recommend the DDJ-RB. The reason I bought the RB instead of the SB2 was, that I wanted 8 full Hot Cues instead of the cue/play button on the pads.
