I haven't the words to describe how freaking amazing this is. Controlling lights right from my Prime 4? Sign me up!!

[@oddioj1350]

Absolute game changer for anyone who hates running dmx which is such a hassle, this is a godsend..keep on Killin da game, Denon gang!!

[@DJRandomHajile]

Done. I'm switching from Pioneer to Denon as soon as I can. This was the clincher. Can't wait to sell my DDJ-1000 and get a Prime 4 now.

[@EngineDJOfficial]

Great to hear!

[@mallkrawlerz620]

Best thing I ever did.

[@mikepenny5727]

So pleased that I invested in Denon! What an update!

[@levinkoper9185]

Engine you are the Future, that funktion is my dream 😍

[@robf4013]

this is GAME CHANGING!!!!

[@DjTombcat]

You guys rock!

[@bkvargyas1]

This is awsome!

[@thetheoryguy5544]

This one feature alone has got me sold on Denon.

[@repairsnstuff]

NOTE: You need at least EngineOS 2.0 / EngineDJ 2.0 and Soundswitch 2.4xx To start doing this!

[@WAVMOB]

Love it

[@joesgeaccounting4154]

nice video time

[@AlexJoneses]

this is such an amazing feature!!! I will be using this on the sc live 4 and I was wondering if I can plug a USB hub into the back of it and run the dmx interface and a USB drive on a USB hub together. Also can I plug in to denon lc6000's into the back (also on a USB hub) as well?

[@achromatic1]

Hello. Great video and feature. What's the program you're using to preview the light show?

[@ddetongre]

Are there any limitations in using the micro DMX cable and would it be better to go straight to a Control One interface? Thx

[@ggreenleaf47]

I have a Prime 4 controller and Gigbar2. Is ethernet connection needed only for initial setup, or will I need for gigs also?

[@24bitentertainment87]

Is that ran through capture on the backend for visualization?

[@fdksdk4843]

How do you get the ssproj file? I'm beginner and when I go to select the folder it asks for a file.

[@djgenew]

Which visualizer is being used in the video?

[@roger7447]

not understand if i can use my standard dmx light and moving heads or only light made by philiphs???

[@djtravismcguire]

So I have done all of these steps with my Sc6000's and I can't get any of the lights to work. They are all on the right channel, the right mode, and hooked up properly. The demonstration works, but nothing else does.

[@Tedrale]

Do we need to pay a subscription to sound switch to use this ?

[@SherwinBajao]

Will it work with a Control One?

[@xiaoyutian9215]

this is a master piece！I have only one question...can I just connect it to a King Kong Lighting console and get everything under control?

[@EngineDJOfficial]

Hey Xiaoyu - To use Engine Lighting, you will need to have a Phillips Bridge. You can see how to set this up here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXjKZINrq9l8q7s

[@RonGallardo777]

How will it work with live songs loaded from Tidal and drop box?And Turn table?

[@EngineDJOfficial]

Autoloops work with all streaming services. Static looks can be used to trigger light programs for line inputs.

[@andresflores4098]

Make this video from scratch, you songs are already encrypted from sound switch. Engine do that automatically?

[@billy2001james]

So they only way this works is with sound switch.? Or will it act as its own dmx controller ?

[@EngineDJOfficial]

Hi Bill, you can also control Philips Hue Smart Lights, take a look at the video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXjKZINrq9l8q7s We hope this helps.

[@mikemanuel57]

Will autoloops work on a song without a SoundSwitch script? For example, songs loaded from Tidal, Beatsource, Dropbox, etc.

[@ImpactSpace]

I wanted to ask the same question. Also, what about external sources like Turntables (P4) or Aux (P2, Go)? Do these at least have sound2light control, via the audio signal flow maybe? Or do they entirely kill the light show programm when in use? @EngineDJ

[@mikemanuel57]

@@ImpactSpace So it does work with streaming services after the song is analyzed. It did not work with an external source, my laptop playing KZbin is the case.

[@EngineDJOfficial]

Yes, Autoloops work with all streaming services and Static Looks can be used to trigger light programs for line inputs.

[@pistasrnicek6976]

neviete mi ktosi poslat ideo ako exportovat svoju knižnicu pesniciek na soundswitche

[@Dj_Paul_Vavi]

where can i find tracks with light show integrated?

[@BlueHawk80]

dumb question.

[@pascalhibon7928]

Is it a requirement to export Soundswitch info ? Isn't the Prime capable of generating general DMX patterns just like it is able to do it for the Philips Hue system? I personally have a huge music library and it would be a huge job to create a Soundswith pattern for each and every song. It would also make it difficult when lighting setup changes.

[@EngineDJOfficial]

Hi Pascal, you can use Autoloops instead of Autoscripts which doesn't require any scripting. For DMX lights, you will need to use SoundSwitch software to create your venue and add your light fixtures and channel assignments. Once you've done that, export the project to your media device, and load the project on your Engine DJ hardware.

[@AgaEd-bb9dy]

You need laptop for this???

[@officialrapprod]

Ok ok

[@BlueHawk80]

[@jinhansun-ig5hz]
