WOW - I was on the fence about the sc6000....being a gig bar move owner watching this video, I'm officially sold. pioneer is shitting themselves I'd imagine.
I'm trying to figure out if I can plug in any dmx light fixture without the need to export from computer and just run basic control off my standalone controller?
Can engine lighting be used purely as a controller? i.e. serato+soundswitch on my laptop sending dmx info with the miniDMX dongle, and just using Engine lighting as a midi controller as if it were touchOSC or an APCmini?
When you export any automated lighting as an .ssproj, the autoloop.bin file disappears. When this happens, the Prime 4 engine lighting won’t accept your sound switch project. I’ve been struggling to get this to work for so long till I found out it was getting rid of the autoloop.bin. Not sure why it happens, but new sound switch projects keep the file, automated lighting for songs currently gets rid of it. Maybe something to look into.
Hello, I'm new to the DJ world just bought a Denon DJ SC Live 4 as I won a deal in my area. Even though I'm a complete beginner I went for SC live 4. So for lighting, this is what I understood:- 1 Get the offline music in your pc on engine DJ then auto-generate the light thing, export the music to USB then connect to SC live 4 2 Depending on the lights you got Hue or DMX make sure they are either connected via USB if DMX or Hue hub. If DMX is not wireless purchase the DMX wireless adapter and connects to the SC LIVE 4 USB. 3 (a)In SC live 4 make sure the USB is selected for music, (b)Go to lightning settings and select the. hue or DMX whichever you're using. My questions Will you please correct if any of the above points are wrong and Can I use DMX lights without wifi- so daisy chain and then pick anyone DMX light to connect via wire to SC live 4, or thats not possible? Can I also connect both Hue and DMX at the same time? Do I need to press something on SC Live 4 to do that lastly does the music always have to be exported to USB for lights to sync with the music, or can this be done on the fly using Serato DJ pro or any other app on pc playing music via let's say SoundCloud connected to SC live 4?
Just been trying the engine lighting option with the mixstream pro. When connecting a supported Moving head to the Soundswitch mini interface, I get color variation but no movement at all.I am using mp3 tracks already analyzed on the Mixstream that were not scripted or from tracks downloaded from TIDAL. What do I have to do to get the head to move?
Hi, can with this one SoundSwitch Micro DMX and PRIME 4 -> control more lights ... lets say Cameo HYDRABEAM 400 RGBW (2pcs) and Cameo WOOKIE 400 RGB Lasers (3pcs) without aditional PC? Prime 4 with update have light control.
Noob question - I have plugged my SS into the Prime 4, updated all the software, clicked on SS export on and I have hooked it up to a moving head, but the light but the light does not respond at all, am I missing hitting something really simple?
This needs to be done in the desktop software. To change the assigned effect, right click on the Movement effect in the desktop software and assign a different effect.
I have followed the setup to using soundswitch on my sc5000m but I can't get my scripted tracks to work the beat grids in engine lighting. I just want to know what am I doing wrong that my saved projects in soundswitch is not working with my beat grids or light show just it static mode. I'm using a sc5000m and lc6000 with a Numark scratch mixer
Is it possible to have lighting sync to music/be controlled without using the pc software? For example, plugging in a gigbar straight into a prime 2 with the USB to dmx cable
@@soundswitch4427 I can’t get it to work with my prime 4 I went out and bought all that I needed cords with the Subscription and can not get it to work! Do I have to setup the program Thur the computer first or is it plug and play?!

How do you connect lights to the Denon prime go and run a light show stand-alone?
Via lightshow usb-dmx cable
I want to use my wash fix 2 , do I need to use the gigbar 2.0 or gigbar move in slave /master Or can I use auto script?

Can you do mini video on settings on lights or what should it be on for like 3 groups of lights
I can get to 3:45 then the gigbar is non responsive. Any advice?
I have test the SoundSwitch on the prime 4. I want to know how to match more song in the app. Now I can just set a project for only one song😂😂😂

Omg, the lighting works over usb 🤞??
When are you gonna have SoundSwitch interfaces available? :(
can you export soundswitch to dropbox to use on denon prime 4?
The Venues that I export to my USB and then to my prime 4 don't show up.
Can you use Auto strip on all songs Automatically in soundswitch
Great update, when will SoundSwitch support sACN?
Hi Darin,
sACN is not likely to be supported in the next 6 monhts
Hello what happened with led lights with no brand like Chinese lights ? how I choose library
Hi Edwin,
Please send the user manual for the light you would like added to support@soundswitch..com
Noob question - I have plugged my SS into the Prime 4, updated all the software, clicked on SS export on and I have hooked it up to a moving head, but the light but the light does not respond at all, am I missing hitting something really simple?
Hey,
Have you exported your SoundSwitch Project?
Thank you for the reply, will do that!
Hey soundswitch,
I have create a venue and auto script all.
Now can I just export the venue to my ssd on my prime 4? And have the lights work
Yes
Is there a way to change the movement effect in the engine lighting meu on the controller to something other than side to side?
This needs to be done in the desktop software.
To change the assigned effect, right click on the Movement effect in the desktop software and assign a different effect.

Hi,
This steup will not work, you must have an X1800 or X1850 mixer.
@@soundswitch4427 Thanks very much for making me to understand. I do appreciate it
Can I just plug and play? And allow the prime 2 to just "do its thing"?
For Philips HUE yes, if you are using the DMX interface you will need to export your SoundSwitch project as shown in the video.
Do I have to script my library on desktop first before using prime 4
Partly yes. If you want scripted tracks then yes if you just want to use Autoloops then no.
Does the USB with project need to be formatted to FAT32??
As long as the drive can be read by the Engine OS systems Engine Lighting will also be able to read the drive.
Is it possible to have lighting sync to music/be controlled without using the pc software? For example, plugging in a gigbar straight into a prime 2 with the USB to dmx cable
Yes
What channel do you put it on? Just leave on 001? Or does it know auto
Once I sync and export using engine prime software...are the tracks automatically scripted?
No, you need to AutoScript your light shows before exporting. However, the Autoloops feature will work for tracks that are not scripted.
@@soundswitch4427 I did that last night and it worked.
Thank you so much for replying...
and Engine Prime 2 picked up my USB project.
Will this work with songs streaming from a TIDAL or Beatsource playlist?
Yes!
@@soundswitch4427 how you script songs from tidal for them to work?
@@monchisthedj you can't script them only use the autoloops if i'm right
💪🏾
Do I need to have a second drive plugged into my Prime 4? Can I just save any data on my music hard drive?
All data can be saved to a single drive. Or you can use a second drive for your SoundSwitch data only if you like.
@@soundswitch4427 I can’t get it to work with my prime 4 I went out and bought all that I needed cords with the Subscription and can not get it to work! Do I have to setup the program Thur the computer first or is it plug and play?!
@@Iamsoundofsoul Are you using Philips HUE or DMX?
Thank for the reply! I found out how to do it!
But it was DmX
What's the basic mode like?
Its pretty basic. Basic and Pro mode only change the UI controls, all of the backend features are identical.
is this supported with cdj 3000 to?
No way!
@@soundswitch4427 i see that as a challenge.

can I use ss wit Denon sc6000 and djm750mk2?
Hi Matt,
You need an X1800 or X1850 for Engine lighting to function correctly.
@@soundswitch4427 thanks for answer.
Los tutoriales en español
This gots everything but a sim card for data
It's like an alien language 😭 faaaack!!!
Can I use the cable and just plug it into my Denon Prime 4 and then control the Gigbar move?
Yes.
@@soundswitch4427 Thank you! Very excited!
