Wireless DMX ADJ Mega Tripar Modification
If you have these lights (or similar) and would like to control them by DMX and you are fed up of linking up a multiple amount od DMX cables together, it's worth looking into modifying them so that they can be connected to a DMX controller wirelessly.
I purchased the wireless module used in this video from Amazon, here's the link: www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0CQYXTFDW?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

With the recent Engine OS 3.4.0 update, the Prime 2, 4, SC 5000 and SC 5000M have missed out on the Bluetooth feature, where you can receive audio and use a keyboard.

      If using the method in this video and you've created a file with a collection of samples,then once they have they have been cued up, they are set. But now that you can set up samples on the device, they are,they are set if you use the on board ones but if you use custom ones from your drive, that drive must be in use to use them.

      Since this video, this method is no longer required for the Denon Prime Series to use samples, but can be useful for other stand alone systems that don't have a sample feature. But to get your siren back, search for the siren track, make sure that you are in sample mode, swipe the track and then tap the pad where you want the siren to be assigned to.

    Yes Cruza. Appreciating your helpful videos. I’m not using a Prime 4, I’ve got a Mixstream Pro. When I first started out I didn’t have a laptop, which is what drew me to getting this controller. But my Mac computer was too old to accept Engine DJ. Finding that the USB stick I was using was really lagging (although the SD card with tracks on worked a lot better) I thought I’d get a laptop to organise my music better. I’ve created a nice long mix on the controller, but yesterday I went through in the computer files and renamed the files so I could find the tracks much easier on the controller (artist name, track name) but in doing so, I made a big boo boo. When I put the USB stick back into the controller, instead of it just renaming the info like I thought it would, it lost the tracks leaving them red, and obviously the renamed track didn’t have the cue points. I can see why this would happen, and would have helped if I just organised my music by importing into Engine DJ originally and sorting it all from there. But is there any way of moving forward constructively to save me maximum headache. The two options I have as I can see it is change the track names back to the originals 😳 or go through with the new relabelled tracks and set all new cue points 😳😳😳 I’m not aware of any other options, but thought I’d message you to see if there was a better alternative. Thank you in advance 💯

    • @djcruza
      @djcruza 4 місяці тому

      Hey thanks for watching! Hmmmm 🤔 it depends on how many files that you renamed. You have to weigh it up, but it may be quicker to re-cue them. OR, if you are now using Engine, you can try to use the relocate file option.

It’s on beta on the Prime 4+ at the moment and from what I’ve heard, it’s not up to par. The Akai MPC have stems now, but it’s pre-processed, so it doesn’t take a strain on the processor, I can’t see why they can’t do the same for the Prime series. Prepare it first in Engine so that the Prime machines don’t have to work that hard to play them.

    How do you find the effects section being at the back of the unit? I’m used to regular club layout. Did you use regular layout and then change over? If so, was it difficult? I’m torn between the prime 4 plus at £1900 Or sc live 4 £990 Only thing I want from prime 4 plus is stems and possibility to connect turntables I’m thinking buy sc live 4 for now. Especially as it has built in speakers and I can’t even play loud music and if I love it, maybe buy the more expensive prime 4 plus, in a year or so. Or maybe in a year or so, Denon may release a new device, with stem support and better layout. Amazon said I could order the Sc live 4 or prime 4 plus and return for refund if I’m not happy with it but I kinda don’t trust amazons word because they kinda let me down before . Any1 know if it’s possible to download some software to separate vocal from a song and then be able to mix just the vocal, in to another song. It would be much more convenient, to use the stem support on prime 4 plus but if there’s another way, I’d happily do it, buy sc live 4 and save 1000

    Hello there. Im a serato dj pro user and want to start using engine dj to dj with my new denon prime go. But I have all of my music files stored in my external hard drive and i want to move all my music files to my internal hard drive in my macbook pro. How cn I go about this? And set up engine dj software onto my macbook pro?

    • @djcruza
      @djcruza 5 місяців тому

      Hi there, first of all Engine DJ software is a simple installation. Once you have that on your Mac, you need to get hold of the the DJ Conversion Utility and the Denon Conversion Utility apps. With these (as described in the video). You said that you want to put all of your music files onto your internal hard drive, this is not necessary if you want to use music on your Prime Go, as you need that music on an external drive. Through the conversion, you can use the same external drive for your Prime Go and Serato without having to move or copy any files onto your computer, that’s how I use mine. But if you need your music files on your computer, the best way to get them on there is doing it in Serato. You need to make sure that no controller or mixer is plugged in so that you are in preparation mode in Serato. Click on the “Files” button and you will see a file browser appear. You can then drag the required crates onto your internal hard drive.you then be asked whether you want to copy, move or cancel. Only tick the box below if you no longer want to use the crates from external any more. Once completed, Serato will now see the crates and music from your internal hard. Then from there you can convert to Engine. I hope this helps.
