Yes, Engine DJ is only to maintain Your music library. Make playlists, set hot cues and loops, set colors to them and names, export to the USB or SD card. The program does not connect with the prime 2 in order to be used as a dj setup.
Prime 2 is running a stand alone software that is Engine OS. And this is used to DJ without the computer.
Ok i understand
Many thanks for your precision about the soft side
I have Serato DJ Pro since DDJ-SX and have a licence key
I understand there is no current support for the Prime 2
I also have Rekordbox licence but I personally hate this software
As a Professional DJ (I play for clubs and Pubs-Clubs) what software do you advice in order to have the same way as Serato DJ Pro ?
Traktor is old even if it still one of the best to use
Iโm not fan of Virtual DJ
Mixvibes Cross should be a good altrenative
I also heard about Mixxx (Open Source DJ Software) and will take a look about
Well, I like Denon dj stand alone.
Normally You donโt buy a standalone device just to plug it in to a computer. Controllers are meant for that.
As for dj software, I prefer traktor, because of Remix decks - only traktor has something like that.
Fellow Serato user here, who also has a Prime 2โฆ honestly the beauty of the Prime 2 is to get rid of needing a computer at gigs, the GUI is great on the device and the screen is bright and clear with great touch functionality.I would say give it a go as a standalone unit and you will soon get used to it.
I still prepare all my playlists in Serato then use the sync function in Engine to update them from Serato.
The Prime 2 is a very powerful DJ tool in its own right.
What I want exactly and this is the reason why I choose the Prime 2 is to use internal SSD for all electronic musics (House, Techno, Progressive, Deep and so on)
Using the soft part will be only for general music
Yeah I could use USB ports for that but I prefer this way
