Yeah big fix on the first position cue for moving heads etc not carrying over from soundswitch desktop to engine lighting on the hardware now itās been fixed great job team
Big thank to Denon DJ teams for such amazing release and related improvements!
Impressive work, thatās so fun to overuse these new FX.
Nicejob! Ever since 2.0 they deliver one killer update after another, what a joy to see.
I would love to learn - in general - what misc features and fixed have been implemented, examples like the SoundSwitch related ones which @Djscottyb just mentioned. The mods usually sum it up as āother/various improvements and fixesā yet I wonder what exactly. Just curious, thanks!
Update works great, love it. Some nice Fx like Echo out With the Sampler routing itās possible to get a better volume control My wish would be if I could use one of the mic outputs on the prime go for my volumes of the sampler, that would be excellent. But I can live with the routing to one Channel
It is better to edit the samples in any recording software, adjusting the volume so that they all sound at the same level and then adjust from the screen to the desired volume
Full night last night on 3.1, mostly worked fine. It seems that the headphone output is quieter, so you need to turn it up more but thatās not necessarily a bad thing.
I felt like the speakers were running harder but with less output, Iām not even sure how thatās possible though so it may have been down to the room, I have three more gigs this weekend so Iāll be able to confirm or deny this.
Main thing I noticed is that when you switch source it takes a lot longer than before, around ten seconds sometimes to load the library on that USB.
Effects all worked great, including the touch FX. Brilliant update overall.
This update has kinda stuffed me up on the Prime Go. The only Main FX I use is the āRollā which I donāt use for Rolling, but as a sampler/looper. The great thing about the old Roll on the Prime Go was that it was possible to set it to 32 bars, which allowed for continuing to play a loop of the track whilst loading up the next song. This is the only way I can really work around the two track limitation of the Prime Go and still get nice full transitions. I got the trick from this video
But this latest release (or maybe a couple of releases ago?) has changed the maximum Roll beats to 2, which makes this impossible. Sad face.
first impressions 3.1 Yesterday, in a 6h set, zero failures, zero problems, everything perfect! It is true that some things can be improved and for sure @denon will already be working for the future.
When using an effect, riser, pitch down, etcā¦ It could automatically disable the Fx button when loading a new song (I had several forgetfulness), it could also remember the parameters of the effects, as they have been used last time (when changing they are reset and factory set and you have to put them back as previously used).
on the other hand, you could also remember the resonance values āāin the touch fx.
But in general everything perfect, thanks to the team!
EDIT
They have put a button in the MIXER section in the menu of my prime 4, which I had not seen: āEFFECT SELECT BEHAVIORā with the recall and default options, when I put it in RECALL, all the effects go back to the same parameters that I used last time, even turning them off and on again, itās fantastic!!
On some Touch Fx, it doesnāt remember the resonance value, specifically on FILTER ROLL and FILTER GATE In these effects, the resonance value is always at zero, when you use them again after having left it at a specific value, but surely they would have thought so, although it would be more convenient if they remembered them.
On the other hand, this weekend I tried another 3.1 addition, which is that you can apply filter sweep FX to a line input. Great again!!! @denon
Moin @REN3MARTIN,

Moin @STU-C,
as I know, you are one of the experts here in ābeatmatching old school styleā
So I ask you to do us a favour and pls have a look at
Any advise / assistence is welcome, even a short feedback that you detected this as well and your opinoin, if it is a malfunction or if that feature aināt available any longer.
Thanks in advance for your endeavours in this matter and enjoy this cloudy monday.

Iād love to @BeatMaster but I only have a Prime 2 so no access to sweep FX, I can confirm that the filter function on that device has never been available in the headphones. Iām guessing itās a bug in the Prime 4 (and possibly SC Live) 3.1 version.
Many thanks for your prompt reply.

I have a general question, and I donāt know if itās a problem with this version, since I havenāt used it beforeā¦ the line input from a mobile phone is very, very low, the gain was at its maximum and it continued to decrease than the rest of the tracks, the volume of the phone at maximum, has anyone used phones or tablets like this as an auxiliary input? Could the gain be increased somehow? Do you know if @denon knows about this problem or if it is something specific of mine?, thanks
Does the phone have a āprotect your hearingā setting ?
no, when i use cheap wireless headphones i usually use them at half volume
For some reason that is just the way it is. Even in other brand of controllers itās the same super low volume when using a phone to play a song through. Not sure why any of them donāt fix this as Iām sure in some way they can make the line input hotter so you donāt need to turn the gain on tje channel just about all the way up. I have experienced this when I can grab a Wi-Fi connection using the tidal app on my phone vs playing tidal through the prime 4 as you normally would and volume is always way lower when using your phone sorry to say.
Iāll test it tomorrow on the Prime 2 and see what sort of volume itās giving me on my iPhone 11 Pro, then compare to the line in on my mixer.
other Pioneer standalone systems do have a button to increase the gain by several dB of the aux input, prime 4 does not, but I would like to know if there is a way to increase the gain so that it can be used at specific times, maybe if we all see it practical, we could create a feature request
Headphones output on most phones are very low power and youāll need to crank up gain on channel to bring it to 0db. If your phone have usb-c you can use a external portable DAC. It will increase output gain and quality. A Fiio KA3 or equivalent will do the trick.
