Engine OS 4.1.0 available now

v4.1.0

• 18/10/2024

Important Note:

Because of database performance optimizations added with this release, Collection Databases used in Engine DJ 4.1.0 are only compatible with version 4.0.1 or later.

  • If a drive, USB stick or SD card is used with 4.1.0, the collection will be updated in a way that will only be compatible with versions 4.0.1 or later.
    • This process can take some time depending on your collection size. For larger databases on removable drives, it is recommended to use Engine DJ on the desktop for faster database migration.
  • You will be required to re-login to your Engine profile after updating to 4.1.0
  • For full compatibility, both Engine OS and Engine Desktop should be updated to 4.1.0

  • Fixed an issue where Match rules would affect search results, even when Match was disabled.
  • Fixed an issue where using the “Log out of authorized devices” function in Engine Profile would not always successfully log out of devices.
  • Fixed an issue that could result in a blank playlist tree after exiting Search.
  • Fixed an issue where instant double could cause problems with Bluetooth source decks.
  • Fixed an issue where engaging/disengaging some effect could lead to pops/clicks in certain circumstances.
  • Fixed an issue where on some devices, playing audio for the first time after turning a unit on could potentially result in an audible pop.
  • Fixed an issue that could result in devices coming fresh out of the box with empty sample pads.
  • Fixed an issue where the LIVE 4 could start in a state where the control surface LEDs and center wheel display would not light up correctly.
  • Additional misc. stability and other improvements.

i read …PRIME GO+

Anyone tried BT out yet?

Admittedly not read any instructions, but in my initial tests (10 minutes) I can’t get the AUTO connection to work at all. After first pairing/connection which works, if I turn bluetooth headphones off and back on it shows that they reconnect but no audio (even after a full power down of unit and headphones, it connects but no audio. I have to forget device and repair to get it working again. Tried two pairs of headphones so far.

Will admit defeat and see if there’s any instructions…

Is it designed for headphones for purely for speakers?

It’s not stated, just audio output devices.

We need the user guide really, once its officially released, hopefully more info in there.

From the user guide:

“The Auto Connect setting determines how your devices reconnect. When this setting is On, a device you have previously paired with your EngineOS hardware will automatically reconnect when Bluetooth is enabled and the device is in range. When set to Off, you will need to manually reconnect each time.”

In my experience auto connect works regardless of this being toggled. I’ve tried both on and off. It connects just no audio.

UPDATE:

After some further testing I can get AUTO connect to work and with audio if I turn on the headphones before the unit. Also I don’t need to forget and repair to reconnect the audio, I can select disconnect and then select the bluetooth device (headphones) again from the list to connect (with audio). The only issue seems to be when turning the headphones on after the unit boots up.

Would’ve preferred my flexible anchor point suggestion over Bluetooth out but never mind, still gonna try it out on my soundbar though, I think my neighbours will enjoy a bit of Hard Noize by Dillinja at 09:30 in the morning :smile:

Nice little update nonetheless, well done to the Denon team keep em coming.

guys i need a lil help about the Bluetooth audio out support for the following Engine DJ devices,so i can pair any bluetooth speaker with my p4+ n audio will play

could you tell me which ones?

thank you so much

correct me if i am wrong

You can pair your BT speaker to your P4+ in the menu.

I think that speakers and similar devices are supported but I’m not sure if headphones are.

hello. When there is a version change from 3… to 4.1, do you have to re-analyze the library on the PC or does the controller automatically transform it? thank you so much

it doesnt work,i try pairing wit my jbl bluethooth speaker noting detected on my p4+

Beatport link an flac. Woo hoo thank you.

Now please off line locker an my life is complete.

Nice little update nonetheless, well done to the Denon team keep em coming.

Indeed - little things make great things even better. Smart Headphone Cue is very nifty, and addressing several things like the SweepFX LEDs, Prime Go Slip Mode and SC Live 4 LEDs are very welcomed. I care less about Bluetooth Out.

In my upcoming review video (20min long… :melting_face:) I cover the SSW/EL part extensively. This is where the true magic happens, and that’s why I regard Engine 4.1 & SoundSwitch 2.9 as one big combo-update. The synergy effects are greater than is apparent at first glance!
