I stopped using my denon dj equipment

I bought the sc 6000m when they first came out. Since I Dj mostly with beatport streaming services. I stopped using my denon gear because you can’t sort the playlist. Why you can’t I have no idea. I’ve asked several times to add that feature. Seems like it’s not hard to do it being every other software can do it. So I stopped using it. Just the other day I decided to connect one of them up. Updated it. It’s been over a year or two since I used them. You would think they would have make that feature available by now. Nope. So I will continue to not use you equipment and will probably sell them soon. Denon you ■■■■.

Wait, so the only reason you’re not using the 6000m is because you can’t sort the playlists to your liking? That’s a pretty expensive paperweight you have there. I’ll take it off of your hands if it’s taking up too much room.

I don’t think he/she did stop using them for this reason.

I’d have a hard time disagreeing with anyone claiming that this was just some guilt-tripping attempt to get one particular feature request queue-jumped up past all other users feature requests.

You have a great point. It’s 2025, they should have figured this out before they ever released engine DJ. When I first bought my 6000s I figured engine was at least up to par with all their competitors. I then figured they will get this fixed soon, now it’s 6 years later and nothing has been done. This is why I started using rekordbox and will never buy denon products again. They one thing you can do is use serato, but it defeats purpose of it being a standalone. Also you have to pay for the software and you can’t view multiple waveforms on one unit using serato.

This is true but still it shouldn’t be this difficult and is unrealistic for large libraries.

Except for many great free updates

Bruh. The past six years has seen loads of updates - for free to Engine prime users.

  • OS compatibility changes
  • stems
  • UI updates
  • Effects
  • Sample players
  • Roll & stutter updates
  • vertical & horizontal waveform options
  • Bluetooth

Not to be a jerk, but you sound like you are keeping your head in the sand.

Let’s stay on subject. We’re taking about sorting streaming playlists, not any other features.

In that context, yes, you are 100% correct. Sorting has not been implemented, hence “nothing” (in that regard) has been done. :slight_smile:

I mean, there are loads of other things that also haven’t been done. They just don’t seem to be a priority.

I can’t be bothered with people who complain about minor issues with expensive gear when their complaint is basically how to get around paying for the music that is the basis for their livelihood.

I’m not paying? I’m pretty sure I pay a monthly fee for this music I don’t know about you others. If I was ripping these tunes I would be able to categorize them that whats messed up. Ha

Hmmm, based on your previous posts, you bought SC6000’s 6 years ago and BEFORE Beatport streaming was introduced so… Also, you’re not even the OP, just some choad piling on. As you said earlier, it is 2025 and if you can’t manage to mix a proper set with all you have available to you, maybe it’s time to hang up the headphones.

Ok and you should change your name because you’re the farthest thing from real. Coming on here telling people they can’t make a proper set. Take a hike, your saying nothing relevant to the topic.

If people took the time and preparation to learn their music, listen to what they’re adding to their collection, what they’re intending to play out to their audiences, then wanting a billion streamable tunes sliced and diced and categorised into “what shape and size of music track will fit in the next hole in my set?”

There’s a seemingly expanding element of (cough cough) DJ who knows next to nothing about the music on their local drive and instead goes: . .

“Music Fishing”.

Eg “The currently playing track is 128bpm and has a Camelot music key of B10… hey deck, show me a load of tracks that I’ve never heard of, with a BPM within +-10% of the current track and is either B9,B11 or A10 or C10 (or some of those magic 5ths), and same genre tag please… No, I don’t care who the artist is. No I don’t care what the songs called or what the lyrics (of their are any) are about - show me any old thing that’ll fill the hole that’s 2 mins away …”

People who want to be DJs should play music, not Tetris

Let’s talk real.

The OP states he doesn’t use his expensive devices for a proper DJ set, because Beatport playlists can’t be sorted…

I’m tempted to respond “unreal”.

OP already voted for the request and made 2 posts on this forum in all those years, so closing this hijacked rant topic as duplicate.
