Its a breath of fresh air to see some actual competition in DJ hardware. All Pioneer had to do was listen, and thats what Denon did.
Exactly I'm getting this set up soon
the streaming service option is the killer for me - all world's music at your fingertips and direct access to your playlists - insane
This was the selling point for me
Watching this as if I could buy one
Caleb me to lol
one day
Save money they are too pro for me also in my country economy is bad as usually even buying a x box is a luxury
i can afford the full set, but i dont think is worth it for what i personally do. Remember that better quipment doesnt meant better DJ, lots and lots of ppl think expensive equipment make better DJ.....100% False. Entry-level DJ controller are waaay more than enought. The flight case price is an overkill also ua-cam.com/video/OfxaDM7rm5Y/v-deo.html
I know right? I am doing the same I can't afford the box it comes in so no way I can afford the actual gear
Pioneer can be lucky about having the infrastructure in all the clubs around the world. If they weren’t the standard they would be destroyed pretty fast now
Exactly this. Plus, it'll take a while before venue owners start hearing about Denon enough from DJs to consider making the jump. Otherwise, they'd rather get what's "safe" and something all DJs can use and won't whinge about because they're unfamiliar with it.
I'm here because I was watching the review about the Pioneer CDJ-3000 and I must say, I'm a pioneer fan but THIS DENON IS fire 🔥 🔥🔥🔥
So funny, after also watching the CDJ-3000 review, even more people seem to consider to jump to Denon. Hopefully they will, so Denon will even more improve the functionality of their software and become also a club standard besides Pioneer.
Exactly! I’m buying this within a year!
I would definitely like to try them - I had the Pioneer 2000s & I am so used to that now. - Even though I started on vinyl, the Pioneers converted me. If they can match that robust feel then I am sold.
Don’t jump to denon. I did it I regret every day of my life. Pads not responding 100% no siren impossible to spin back jugs wheels not responding takes to long to load song even from HD and to swap songs the son already playing has to be pause before. It takes to long.
The wheel adjustment is a plastic knob and it feels son cheapppppppp. I paid $4589!for the set. After 5 times of playing with it it when back to the box if I can’t sale it is going to the dumpster
@@DeeDee-lo5lr Sound faulty mate. Can you not return them?
Wheres Pioneer? Denon have always built real quality.
Isn't NAMM about to start? There'll be update galore once it starts.
@@DJ-Daz let's wait and see. I'm tired of the lack of innovation from them. Too many pads for my liking.
@@Factory051 pioneer's so outdated
@@Factory051 Is anyone really innovating anymore? Sure there are incremental improvements all the time, but no one is making such an improvement that the whole industry has to play catch-up. We'll see this week what will change or will it just be an incremental change?
pioneer has done what intel did, had the monopoly so rested on their laurells, doubled the price of everything and fuck innovation, fuck feedback, pretend we listen and give 4 channels but they not really 4 channels as we dont give 2 layers (sandbagging) as we can add that next time and rip u off some more, fuck pioneer, used to love pioneer but since the djm800 for me they can suck a fart out my arse
Love they listened to users of the x1800 lettering being difficult to see...everything looks so much easier to see on the new one. Especially in a club.
The streaming feature as on the the previous players is amazing.
Great review mate.
As a former owner of pioneer 2000’s, I can honestly say that that Denon has their game tight!
Those are absolute Pioneer Destroyers.
I wonder when the clubs/venues will buy them...oh wait, they won't
@@mwscoofield Shhhh, Pioneer fanboy. Just pay your RB6 subscription and keep on using your plastic CDJ-2000 crap :)
@Daniel Spaniel They won't buy them because they aren`t as familiar to most DJs and they often don't have the Time to get used to the Denons. They may be better, but just arent practically usable in a nightclub environment
not CDJ3000
Is not that easy. I have it. It has to much to change the song u have to pause the song that’s playing then look for the new song click the bottom on the right to load up. To move fast forward the song also have to pause the song. The jugs wheels sucks the loom bottoms not good at all. Sometimes don’t respond
i still love my sc5000s. a little bump off size of the screen and a half inch jog wheel increment does not diminish the beauty that is sc5000 :-) good review.
I sold my SC5000's just because I try to keep up to date but honestly, I prefer the looks of the 5000.
i so agree with you 🤩
Beautiful sc6000s. But my sc5000s can do everything the new players can anyways.
Already ordered one. Can't wait to have it.
Dream set up, 2 sc players , xone 96 and a turn table 👌
The players so so damn nice !! They meet 2020 standards.
While pioneer is stuck in 2013.
new cdj's are coming soon..
@@DJoA we've been hoping for that for quite a while. Any insider news, or just pure speculation?
@@KevinBasher not speculation.
@@DJoA when? 2022? Mate Pioneer seriously has to step up. They are selling basically the same stuff for more than 6 years for too much money
@@321Robber 2020
this streaming connectivity is sooooo amazing😍
Might think about dropping pioneer now
Now even more, since RB6 bullshit!
Great review Jamie, can’t wait to get my hands on these in April 🔥
Thanks for watching :)
@@Crossfader why did you delete an entire conversation I had with a person here?
@@Crossfader ?
Very informative. This is a big step up what I have from DenonDJ
I am a Pioneer fan. But these have my attention. Never thought I would say that about Denon.
I'm still using my Denon DNHS5500s. Love em! These SC6000s look stunning!
HS5500 are legends
i love all the denon prime products i really love the prime 4
Great review. I love the flexibility and versatility of the players with the ability to adjust the platter feel and control as well as the layout of the cue buttons. The large screen, lights and on board storage is great and very convenient. The layout of the buttons are superb and easily accessible. Great player.
Yes but this Denon players can work for many years with a minimal machine problems like Pioneers?
They look amazing
it' s absolutely revolutionary machine. love it
Thumbs up for being in my hometown 💯 shout out the 954
love those giant touchscreens
Excellent description...Thanks :)
i sprung for these 6000s and x1850. can't wait to get them. As an old school dj...it would be nice to see a rotary X1850 type with all of the features. i'm kool with everything else..
Great review Jamie.
A little bleak as I have just purchased my SC5000s and X1800 mixer.
My one SC5000 froze but Denon DJ replaced the player for me so great service from them. Love the players and used the streaming service at a New Year party and they worked awesome for those weird requests I didn’t have.
Another great feature to mention is that you can run 4 layers per deck with Serato DJ on 4 channels on the X1800/ X1850 mixer in HID mode. Serato DJ with Macook Pro.
I ran my Deck 1 in HID mode with Serato DJ and had Deck 2 set with USBs and streaming from Tidal (even though you can stream Tidal in Serato DJ as well).
I used the 4 channels with Deck 1 in computer mode with the mixer channels set to USB / or DVS (works with either).
When I needed to use channels 3/4 On the mixer with Deck 2 (for requests / acapellas) , I just switched those channels on the mixer to the normal line RCA.
Another point to mention is that if you are running Serato DJ from a MacBook Pro with 2xUSB ports in your Mac USB hub, you do not need to buy a hub with 3xUSB ports as you can link the 2 SC6000s / SC5000s with a usb cable, and then run the second Deck/Player from USB out into the USB hub. With your X1850/X1800 mixer connected from USB1/2 out into the other USB port in the USB hub. Track artwork also works on the Centre Jogwheel screen on the players in HID mode with Serato DJ. This is awesome.
I am considering getting these SC6000s but am hesitant as I am loving the SC 5000s still as they are brand new and am worried about how I will trade in or sell my SC5000s as well? Does Denon DJ offer assistance here?
They still have the plastic screen protectors on the screens and jog-wheels.
The jog-wheel does seem a lot looser though on this SC6000 than the SC5000 from what I can see on this video, is that correct?
With all being said the SC5000 are incredible players and I am sure the SC6000 is amazing too.
You can adjust the jog sensitivity to match your preference😁
fantastic, fantastic, very good denon dj
After seeing that CDJ 3000 release, I find myself here asking what went wrong at Pioneer? This is what a real player should be.
What went wrong was the same problem as Technics! They reached the top and didn't improve, each new edition was similar to the last!
Very good Video, bring us moore
Not gonna lie that sc6000m looks dope. 😍
i have switched over to Denon and I'm infinitely more satisfied and having a different kind of fun behind the decks. They have thoroughly kicked Pioneer's ass
I've saved long and hard this year... Gonna treat myself this Christmas 😁🎶😁
If only I had enough money .... such a beautiful setup.
great video, thx a lot!
wow, well I just had to come back and rewatch this after watching your video on the new CDJ3000s. These players from Denon look amazing, the Wi-fi and streaming features are game changers! It seems like Pioneer is just going through the motions by releasing their new players without much in the way of new features. I haven't looked at the numbers but I doubt many will even be able hear the difference in the sound quality of the new ones, without it being pointed out. The price comparison between the two Denon is clearly the winner here, hands down! Sorry Pioneer looks like you dropped the ball on this one. And unless Pioneer has put Wi-fi modules in the box already there won't be any future updates addressing that issue. So what, we are supposed wait 10 years till 4000's are released? Naw not me.
And with the release yesterday of the Pioneer CDJ 3000, it seems they have missed the mark. Just might be swapping to Denon.
The table have turned dude. No way I would be thinking that Denon DJ product looks more pro than Pioneer DJ. Now CDJ 3000 has come, it proves that Denon DJ are absolutely more pro than that new CDJ
"watching your video" so im guessing you cant afford to actually use the 3000s? they are night and day better than the 2000nxs2's to use. videos dont do them any justice
Great review - sold me on getting these over Pioneer :)
It looks insane
they finally allowed the loop rolls, denon really listened
Time to push my pioneers aside. I’m definitely buying these!!!
The wifi streaming is unreal !. That really grabbed my attention
It's very very nice
Next level!
Amazing.
Why doesn't the mixer finish match the decks???
Pioneer will not panic they are used in mostly all clubs however saying that I am definitely interested in using Denon equipment it looks amazing the larger screens etc I love Pioneer DDJ 1000 that was a great update by Pioneer.
I can imagine a day where i would tell my ai to que a performance I performed a year ago and work it so the experience i provide reminds my follower how much i love them.
This guy is great!
Thanks for watching!
Can it run Witcher 3?
Probably! :D
nice. lol
I always wanted to make a playlist while doing a set.
Ima pioneer guy but this making me wanna switch!
About time
I like how i had your ad on your video.
Can you record straight onto USB like the all in one prime units ? Also can you see 2 waveforms on the same deck?
Ordered 6000 x2 can’t wait to get out of (over priced pioneer) roll on the 11th August 👍🏾
Is it just me who wants an option to record your set directly from the mixer on USB stick/SD/SSD?
I have the prime 4 and it got this feature 🙂.
The SC6000 hot it to (i think). Because it's the most advance player in the world
@@skrungietco the player probably does not have this feature. Because the set consists out of 3 seperate devices and it only plays one track. The SC 4 is a hybrid device
Why? A USB recording device for your mixer channel is like 40 bucks
Connecting one box seems much smoother when performing
You can do it with the DJM 350, I don't know why they don't put it in more mixers...
Just got a pair! Way over the top, it’s evolved from a CDJ into a media player. Cool stuff and still keeps the comfortable basics. Love in it!
Unbelievable units
3 sc6000s with an Allen and heath 92. A man can dream...
Amazing! Nice review! Both the mixer and the players have digital inputs / outputs, I'm curious why do you keep using the classical analog RCA cables? Digital should be (slightly) better quality, and cheaper cabling.
Hi Jamie, so because the X1850 has a 3/4 on the touch strip does this allow the ''FX parameter knob'' to be fine tunned? or does it still annoyingly snap to the same time divisions that are on the touch strip when you turn it? cheers.
That's cool
Let’s goooo!!!
Can you change wave form color? Red for base, orange for mids and blue for tops. This makes it easier to identify new frequencies when playing new songs. I dont like the all green if its full color ill buy it.
Now, THIS is a user-centric design! Denon actually LISTENED to the users and are now dominating the market. Because in the end, it is not the manufacture that is going to buy the product, WE are.
Dominate the market? LOL. In what way? The new 3000s are geared to upgrading what 99% of the market is already comfortable with. Obviously the value is low, unless you're a club / festival. Most users will find them too expensive otherwise. The OS/performance features on the sc6000s are def significantly better...and much easier to justify the price over Pioneer. They're not going to dominate anytime soon. It'll take years....especially after this covid year.
@@floordoctor Denon is now starting to do so... even if price was the same.
Dang Look at the size of his hands in comparison to the screen! That thing is huge!
That's why I prefer women with small hands.
Your the No.1 Dj i wish you will going to tomorrowland
We would love that too haha
Why don't they come up with Engine DJ performance software ?
Giant display. Denon 💓💕💓.
I noticed when the cue were cleared out the LED black light was still on. For me this would be a problem due to the way i set my hot cues. Will or is there a way to have the LED off when there is no cue stored?
When HotCue is not stored, HotCue button is not light. Lit only weak backlight. This must be like this. Otherwise, in the dark club you wouldn't see the hotcue buttons. HotCue button lights is colored when hotcues id stored. Backlight illuminates with a weak white light.
Great review. Looks an incredible piece of kit. I'm just concerned about the bit rate that these sites stream at. Kind of glossed over but is crucially important surely? Cheers Rob
Tidal can stream at very high quality. Higher than typical downloads
MANTAP JOSSS BAGUS SEKALI DENON DJ. 👍👍👍👍👍
Where were you again?
Is that place open to public?
Are the cue buttons new or the same as the sc5000s? The old ones are super prone to breaking.
would be nice to see what james hype can do on these
Hopefully they will make their der Engine Prime Software better. I use the sc5000 since 1 1/2 years and they already crashed sometimes. Beside of that they are great Players and I don't wanna miss them.
Is it true that you can use the mixer as a multi track recording audio interface for a daw?
One Question, 17:50 can you push the tree you are inside on the right player to the left player?
Was easy, you whould not have to search for it on the left one. To stay where you are for a couple of songs you know.
For the players the price in Euros is the same number like the price in Dollars and for the mixer the price is actually higher than the one in Dollars, do we have to pay more if we use Euro, or is just a small edit mistake there?
As far we were told the mixer is slightly higher in euros. It’s not a mistake.
@@Crossfader thanks for clarifying, in this case I think Denon Dj doesn't like to work with Euro currency 😁
Remember that all US prices happen before tax. So the actual price people pay will between 0 - 16% more of the listed price depending on their jurisdiction.
The trade rules in Europe are different: the manufacturers must give 2 years warranty so this usually translates in slightly higher prices. Also, the EU charges more taxes which doen't help either.
Pre ordered mine but no idea when its coming
Just received my SC6000s and having a play. I am impressed. More bang for buck. And saved about $2500 on each Not buying CDJ3000s. Yes $4500 each now!
can u copy music from usb drive to 2.5 inch ssd ?
Can we get a review of the latest engine OS update for the SC6000M, Dual layer, SoundCloud, Beatport, Tidal etc.
How can I use the x1850 on serato DJ pro with my pair vl 12 prime either phase DVS or DVS?
Can we have a Limited Edition version also
Game changer, just can't decide if I should get the M Version.
The M is great for that turntable feeling!
Pioneer has to step up there game now 😂
You got that right! 💯
sd69145 they will ...Nexus 3 🔥🔥
djzunils sunil hopefully soon 😜
They may step up the Nexus 3 a little bit, but it won't be this powerful.
@@djzunils Nexus 3? When? 2022? Pioneer seriously have to step up! Charging that much money for technology which is basically same since more than 6 years
Denon actually 🚀🚀🚀 welcome to the futur, i like this !!!
Awesome review!! I have a question: does SC6000 connect to Spotify?
no man only to tidal for start. Later soundcloud and some other service I can't remember for now :-)
Wow!!! I am a true Pioneer user but I have been thinking in terms of getting a full stand-alone CDJ and Mixer for home. Pioneer Nexus and XDJ series are too expensive and they are not near the tech use as Denon Prime series. I once frown on them but I may have to eat crow 4 they really are planning on taking the industry-standard spot form Pioneer.
Will the Denonsc5000m get the serato waveforms like sc6000 anytime soon?
Отличный комплект!!!
I love those players, but I don't really want to give up my Allen & Heath mixer :) I guess it is still usable with that mixer?
Yes of course! You will just lose some link functionality such as track preview :)
The only thing i worry about are the rubber pad knobs, if they will fade or not , also the play and cue button idk if they are as responsive as the pioneers
oh my.. if only i had a spare few G's to drop on these
Will it ever link to Spotify?
Are they at least working on smart crates?
I might sell my MCX8000 for this setup. So awesome
If i see correctly the port for the usb stick is on the back. I hope they make it more accessible in the next model.
For Storage: 1 USB + 1 SD (up front), 2 USB (at the rear), 1 SATA port (underneath).
For Software Control: 1 USB (rear).
Denon DJ has you covered!
Can anyone tell me - Can you use the turntable version in ‘non vinyl mode’ like the plain 6000 ? If you can then you get the best of both worlds
Yes you can.
