[@tamparey979]

I am in the market for a new controller, and the prime 4 + is a STRONG candidate

[@DJSILKWOLF]

I've never been a 'Denon guy' but after doing a ton of research I recently picked this up for certain mobile gigs and it's absolutely sick. I did two back to back gigs on Saturday with no laptop... very fun. Def try it out if you can. There's nothing else with the I/O of this unit either.

[@HannesCoudenys]

I just bought it. Happy! Altough the left deck screen seems defect

[@superlazy3355]

Got the prime 4... Never looked back. The updates are epic too

[@beesting6135]

​@@HannesCoudenys😂

[@timweakley6565]

Just copped one today. It's the truth.

[@the_jcharles]

I LOVE my Prime 4 Plus. I compared and researched against the RX3, the XZ and the Opus Quad. The Prime 4 Plus just has so many more features

[@DenonDJTV]

Great choice!

[@djs5889]

What about Soundquality vs Opus Quad??

[@djcarlo]

Such a beast!!

[@theAnGle89]

This is the ultimate piece of gear for a DJ just behind the modular decks... I love my prime 4 to death

[@roperem3480]

You are the best so far in getting into details of the steps required to get started. That's very helpful. Thank you so much. ❤

[@prouddaddyofdos]

Just got mine yesterday…upgraded from the PrimeGo! This is an excellent & awesome controller!

[@DenonDJTV]

Congrats!!

[@djcal623]

Really really outstanding. Just the video I was looking for. I'm finally going to venture away from pioneer and I was a little bit intimidated. This eases some of that

[@DJIncompetent]

Thank you SunlessKhan for teaching me the DJ video.

[@TheBebe666]

Jumping from Live Sc 4 to this one ...finally. Ordered today.

[@jeffszurgot]

What is wrong with live sc 4? I want buy one

[@m-stat9]

Live 4 is perfectly fine, I own one@@jeffszurgot

[@djLeresende]

Denon DJ the best.....

[@christianchata4039]

Just got my Prime 4+ white edition ❤🔥

[@djccruz1]

I love my prime 4. Take it to all my gigs. Hope stems will be supported on this unit as well.

[@cduemig1]

I’m debating upgrading to the four plus to ditch tidal for amazon.

[@LoVeAmBiEnT]

They’re supported now

[@TeamValor-jw1zj]

Thanks for the 4.0 update. Please add in the Stems feature & hook up with Virtual DJ to license & use their program. Also, please fix echo in FX. The only way to shut it off is to change the FX type, which just sounds like a horrible cut-off instead of fading out

[@ToddBryantsr]

To accellerate stem adoption, stems should be processed on the laptop that is already integral to the workflow. As this becomes perfected overtime, the funtionality should be moved to the Prime 4+. Customers know that stems are in beta and will tolerate the use of the laptop in track preparation.

[@eckow5222]

Love denon

[@Djgabrieel]

It would be good if they also released the Denon Prime 2 Plus with a 10" screen like the prime 4 would be a success and would compete with the ddj rx3!!! ❤❤❤ Y Love The products of denon dj!!!

[@orgonsolo6291]

Its just an amazing piece of hardwar. Cant wait to afford get these products

[@cowmilkbiz]

At 6:07 you say a compatible SD card to use for saving waveform data from streaming sources… which are these compatible drives? Will a Sata drive be compatible?

[@user-no9kv3kd7g]

I have the prime 4 and it’s great but why is there no option to remove or reorder the main fx? I love the new effects but ever since 3.0 I find myself messing up just because I can’t find the effect I wanf

[@PopGunEnt]

did this ever get fixed? if not, can you expound a bit on what the issue is?

[@JustAnotherReviewwithAlek]

Q; I’ve noticed that syncing the tracks doesn’t always work. For example: Ive been playing a set 😂for 20mins and everything is working fine. However, the system starts playing up and when I cue a track to fade in, the pitch speeds up at the start and then slows down. Which then puts the two tracks out of sync. It’s a new controller (month old) and it didn’t do this when I first started using it. I can’t seem to find a way to resolve it. (The system is updated to the latest versions 3.3.0) Help needed. Cheers

[@JeffBrandt242]

I want one!!!

[@DjKelian]

Buen video!!!! Me podrías decir cual es el tema que suena? Y sabes si la prime 4+ saldrá en blanca? Saludos y gracias!!

[@AbhishekArghaGanguly]

its possible to add a shortcut usb selection mode ?? Because every time its not a good to with the other option.

[@Charl-Lee]

I don't like the Sweep FX section, it's not as bright as its predecessor. It's hard to see which button you have selected or if the button is still selected. Please If it can be made brighter by update or if you have it selected a slow pulsation and when using a fast one! Thanks 🙏🏽

[@CarpeDiem-311]

Nice video very informative, you left out, Stems ??? How did you get that please?’ !

[@pierremichon9624]

Classe😊

[@_JONGFIRE]

Gonna trade in my NS7III for the Prime 4+👍🏻

[@SehxualPanda]

How do import my Virtual DJ collection into Engine DJ????

[@davekallaway7248]

Just asking..I know the inputs on the back can be “phono or line” inputs. Can one of them be to a radio?? I’m a radio Dj that does a lot of gigs on location. Having tons of music internally..and access to radio with 2 EQ’d mic inputs would eliminate bringing a separate mixer, radio, and laptop..

[@DenonDJTV]

If your radio source has a line out (2 RCAs or 1/8" with RCA adapter) this should work just fine!

[@DJLarjean]

Hello, I received my Denon DJ Prime 4+ to start my new career, however it doesn’t have stem in it. Thus, it was one of the main reasons why I bought it the unit. Any help before I return it?!

[@tMena45888]

I love my 4+ glad I have it but man I've been a bit disappointed with waiting for stems update

[@lextr3110]

Did they update the sound and headphone out.. it wasnt on par...

[@anonymous_friend]

Can the jog displays show the bpm and key?

[@qr9180]

I dont want to use stems , should i buy the prime 4 instead ?

[@CANNELLALINESOUND]

i HAVE 2 sc 6000 and one x1850. today i try turn on but only one dech work. I read the manual and ry conection but not work. What can can do for work DENON ?? HOW CAN PUT 2 SC 6000 IN A X1850 ??

[@lasa6619]

Does this support Bluetooth streaming ???

[@raitisdzerkalis]

Already got myself this unit. Nice piece of kit. Went to it from XDJ-XZ. I would require to be able search through collection in multiple languages while in standalone. Can you please add this option with future firmware updates. Also would be nice if jog displays would have info like time remaining, bpm etc. Other than that it's brilliant all in one dj system @DenonDJTV

[@mark12810]

Can you change the wave form for it go length ways like on the SC/CDJ, I really don't like the vertical style.

[@BlackSheepEvents]

Looks like you can

[@mark12810]

yeah you can apparently@@BlackSheepEvents

[@char.lockscreen]

Can it record live sets?

[@char.lockscreen]

How do you record a mix

[@nanadjnyk]

When is stems coming to the prime 4 +? Just got myself Prime 4+ because of its standalone capabilities ,coming from Rev 7

[@FakawiNZ]

You have to join the public beta to get stems

[@nanadjnyk]

@boddah311 ok, thank you .Does the beta version affect the whole performance of engine dj ? ,it Been a beta version .

[@6co]

I like it better than pioneer😃💪🏻

[@nycvivation9787]

Got the prime 2 and I wish I had this even though, I recently purchased the XZ and had to return it because the wave format and the unit itself it’s sort of out dated.

[@paparaute]

Wann kommt endlich Stems als Finale Version ?

[@1977yeroc]

Has anyone received the error “The following peripherals did not come online..” on the prime4+?

[@EuroNation]

Why don't you guys address the defect on the right platter for the Denon Prime 2 where it seizes up while playing a track especially on vinyl mode. Clearly a defect you haven't addressed.

[@Bertiemang]

You guys should fix the existing streaming quality mismatch glitch, screen SC5000 screen freezing, pitch glitch, and database corruption bug before you release more hardware.

[@djaldum3105]

denon prime4+ le meilleur du monde. Adieu pioneer

[@RogerCimon]

Mais les effets ne peuvent être appliqués à une source externe ( phono ou line )! C'est un pensez-y bien!

[@djs5889]

Soundquality? Soundquality? Soundquality? vs Opus Quad??

[@m-stat9]

6:40 SweepFX LED contrast is too low!

Where is the stems?

[@WavyLive]

prime 4 for $800 or go for prime4+?

[@djmikesea]

really need a vol. / mix knob for effx volume, the way it is you have no control over the volume of the effx. i do like the finger gestures for effx, but all effx should have a vol/mix level control

[@DenonDJTV]

For the Main FX, the Dry/Wet knob controls the level of the effect in the mix

[@Kurbik7777Kurbik]

AD!!!!!!!!!!!! Updata JET FX

[@EduContro]

does anybody know how to make Serato recognize it?

[@DenonDJTV]

If you'd like to connect to Serato and use the PRIME 4+ as a controller and not as a standalone, you need to swipe down to access the main menu, then tap the source icon in the lower left hand corner. On the next screen, tap the little computer icon in the upper right corner to access computer mode. You'll need to have the latest version of Serato DJ Pro installed. Or, just follow the steps outlined at 02:25 to export your Serato crates to a drive and leave your computer at home!

[@raitisdzerkalis]

Also you will need to download and install the driver. I did it for mine. Otherwise Serato wouldn't recognize your P4+

[@alexzanderking1556]

I prefer the layout of the sc live 4 if the Prime 5 had the features of the P4 but with the sc layout it would be perfect

[@andreasweber5101]

Apple Music?!?

[@AlienShine]

If it's all digital, there should be digital ins/outs.

To all the people who say DJs just press buttons .. come and have a go 🤣

[@user-zj3cy2bk4f]

Нельзя найти трек на русском языке в поиске это огромный минус. Сделайте прошивку с выбором языка.

[@raitisdzerkalis]

Я уже это у них запросил. Это единственное что меня останавливает полностью перейти на standalone

[@user-zj3cy2bk4f]

@@raitisdzerkalis я только сегодня заметил данный плюс когда полноценно встал играть на деноне в баре) вручную все русские песни переименовывать на англ яз по моему гонево ещё то) надеюсь исправят. Ещё сегодня заметил разницу которая не была заметна при игре на пионере. На деноне чувсвуется разница между качеством треков. Если трек не очень качеством это прям слышно. И вообще привыкать надо после пионера. Восприятие всего абсолютно другое

[@user-zj3cy2bk4f]

@@raitisdzerkalis вернее минус)

[@raitisdzerkalis]

@@user-zj3cy2bk4f Я в свою очередь заметил большую разницу в частотах EQ. После пионера музыка сводится очень плавно. Хорошо слышно все отдельные звуки. Не зря говорят что по качеству звука Denon лучше пионера. Да привыкать приходится но по моему у этих ребят есть все шансы стать лидерами на рынке если они будут внедрять все необходимые функции.

[@michael-masi-2021]

As a new owner of a Prime 4+ I have to say this video is very very ordinary. You're talking about one function or another while displaying something utterly different on the screen and then you never show half the features in action. I'll live, after all I can play my own decks, but you guys can and should do far far better for a "quick start"

[@BlackSheepEvents]

Why even talk about Amazon Music is you have Tidal?

[@gameworlder9331]

Denon, how can I hook up my Motu m2 interface and KRK to my Prime 4 plus , I just bought mine 3 weeks ago, and I am now trying to set it up? Thank you

[@bboymac84]

If only you could use this with Serato at the same time. The crossover from DJ to DJ is trash. You have to wait with dead air to transition. 😩🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️ The Opus Quad doesn’t have this issue!!!

[@bboymac84]

@@djstuc I think you should do a video on that because this is the main reason DJs aren’t buying this. They don’t want dead air.

[@bboymac84]

@@djstuc ghetto but I guess that works but can just connect DJay Ai via a small controller at the same time but you can’t do Serato and Denon at the same time is my point like the Opus Quad

@@djstuc I’m not complaining I’m seeing an issue that needs to be solved. Just like all the updates did.

If transition from DJ to another is the problem all they have to do is carry some music on a usb and play the music from there once you playing music from the usb into one of the channels you can disconnect and connect the other computer and be able to play your tracks from Serato
