    This was an amazing tutorial man. Holy cow I’m blown away how well you explained everything. I’ve watched a few other videos on how to work with soundswitch prior to the recent engine update and this can help with a lot of those as well even if you arnt using soundswitch as a standalone on the prime. PLEASE do more videos of this kind of stuff man. You explained this so well. I really enjoyed watching this and for sure makes me want to learn more.
    I’d also be interested to know if you can script on soundswitch with the HUE lights if that’s all you have since you said they will follow the master track. Is this possible? I’d love to create custom shows with my HUE lights.

    The whole upgrade is mint,and cheers for showing the light capabilities, I was a vinyl dj back in the day’s,Family times happened so decks went the journey fast fwd a cany few years I’m now 62, I looked at serato and recorbox controllers all very good pieces of kit but decided on prime 4
    As it was the screen that made the choice I bought it last November when I first switched it on it looked like space ship computer,as a total newbie
    To digital stuff I bought Crossfaders Denon prime 4 course which is really good at explaining everything about al the bells and whistles

    I used pionner for a long time, but today I'm thinking of changing to denon, because I always wanted something like that, that works with light in a simple way, I also hope they put the video part for led panels, because I can't afford an illuminator and a vj for my shows and I always play in places with this structure, but I can never do a good visual delivery because of that!

    Thanks for this video, Jamie. I learned a lot! I'm still up in the air as to whether to buy the SC Live 4 or to hunt down a Prime 4 (my first choice). A couple things I'm not clear on are: Does the Prime 4 control Hue and DMX lights in the same way as the SC Live? Also, do both controllers run on the same version of Engine? I see one of the big selling features of the SC Live is Amazon Unlimited but shouldn't the Prime 4 have the same ability if it's using the same OS? I'm new to Denon so please forgive if these questions are obvious. Anyone is free and welcome to answer. Thanks!

    Thanks again for the video can't wait for the next one !

    • @gavinclements4036
      @gavinclements4036 2 роки тому +4

      Yes Toma, you can select your entire Engine DJ library and just hit auto and it will create a light show for each tracj one by one...
      It must be according to which lights you have in your address grid though.... This is the important part.. soundswitch needs to know what lights are attached to be able to make the show so always set that up first, then analyse and apply those auto light shows to your music library.
      If you have different light set ups for different gigs (different clubs or home & a touring disco set up for example) this is where you create a "Venue" first - tell Soundwitch what lights at at each venue. The same lights must be set up at that venue each time on the same addresses but you can have your entire library have different shows for different venues depending on the lights set up there... just switch your venue and the same song can have multiple venues applied.
