It's been promised to the point where I stopped asking. But the Serato DJ Pro update for the Denon DJ SC5000M Prime is out, and for Prime 4 too.
My prayers have been answered, and Denon DJ has made a motorised version of the SC5000 Prime player, logically called the SC5000M Prime.
What do you do when you are lent some bleeding edge DJ gear for a weekend? Rinse some techno at a filthy rave, of course. Dan took the SC5000 Prime players and matching X1800 Prime mixer out for a play, and this is how it went.
Denon DJ announces standalone streaming in the Prime 4 and for the SC5000 Primes. That's some keeping the cat in the bag futureproofing right there.
Denon DJ's intentions become clearer with each release. The bold #changeyourrider attack on Pioneer DJ's territory just got real with the announcement of Timecode, a StagelinQ powered plug that offers a view into the booth by stage techs, or outright control of lighting and effects in a venue.
If you're wanting to mount an attack on the hearts, minds, and wallets of club DJs, you need a compelling product to break the hold of Pioneer DJ. And the beating heart of Denon DJ's Prime system is the X1800 Prime mixer. We played in and out of the Worxlab to see if it's a worthy competitor to the established models.
