@@tonykellydjt2805 i agree. i don't think 4 channels makes sense for a portable unit like this, you'd be compromising too much in terms of portability.
Huge fan of this device. Gotta upload my review video soon. I watched your initial video prior to purchasing. Thanks for the inspiration and quality information!
Great video. I'm all in on the Denon prime eco system now with a prime 4 and prime go. However just as you pointed out the effects issues and lack of beatsource (which I'm a subscriber) is troubling. Any idea about when an update could be coming?
Watching this a few years later and trying to decide if I should get this or the mixstream pro go. Did they ever fix the effects section and add split cue?
The GoRack is a super awesome bit of kit, so sad they stopped making it so quickly... I can't imagine it wasn't selling well, maybe too well and killing the sales of their lower drive rack models... but it is a great unit... if I'd have used mine a bit more, or realized how handy it is, I may have ordered more when PSSL cleared them out... debating picking up a Prime GO for a small portable device for certain occasions...
I use the Traktor S4 MK3 USB to my macbook pro able to see the unit in OBS as an audio device, can you do the same with the Prime Go or do I need an soundcard device?
He man is actually about to return in a big way. Kevin Smith and Marc Benardin wrote the script to a whole new He-Man series for Netflix with an all star cast as voice talents. It is in production right now, but with the global pandemoniac upon us it's anyone guess when it's going to premier.
I have a Denon DJ Prime 4 and have been using it professionally for 1 year. I never had any problems regarding operation, software or updates. I believe that each one must first know the equipment in the reviews on RUclips and then be sure that it is the option that will make you happy. Problems will always exist, as long as you have made the purchase in legal places, you will be able to have assistance. The rest is to use accordingly and thus have your performance guaranteed.
.. is the battery removable? ie replaceable? or is it built in? Because most devices using battery these days seems to diminish over the course of a year or so ..
The Go doesn't have bluetooth, but you can plug it into a BT transmitter if you want. I imagine you would have a hard time mixing with the delay, but I guess you could get used to it.
I'm not familiar with the Mixon, but it looks like it has a more standard layout, and of course you get two more channels for mixing, so I can see where it that might be a better set up for some people. The nice thing about the Go is it's a stand alone device, and it stands up to hot outdoor gigs in these central Texas summers. I have a gig where the sun creeps under the canopy and starts hitting the stage by the end of the day. The Go didn't even flinch in direct sunlight and high 90s (F).
Love the idea of wireless not sure if anyone has already mentioned but have they missed the boat , this could have had wifi / bluetooth playback connectivity then you can rock up anywhere and just link into local sound system .... thoughts peeps #staysafe
Who missed what boat? Denon? Bluetooth lag prevents serious DJ performance, thus it is deactivated (but there is a BT-chip I believe). However, just the rear RCA main and connect two battery speakers swiftly, no problem imho. Or if you just prep something, you only need your headphones anyway...
Bluetooth would've made this perfect for its time. I would've thought at the very least you could connect Bluetooth headphones. (likely latency limitations)
You guys don't like to demonstrate the microphone side of all gears review, why? Try and do a whole video performance of the microphone side of the mixer or the controller, please. How to use the sampler for microphone if possible.?
If anyone can figure out how to dump the engine prime software and run Serato directly as a standalone unit, no external computer then we're talking something useful.
Even the sound quality from the SC-5000M + X1800 was nowhere near as good as my old DJM-2000 Nexus with the Audio10 running Traktor! The SC-5000M + X1800 outputs a harsh digital sound even when playing HQ WAVS
I just can not shake the opinion that this is really grossly overpriced and there are only a extremely minimal times you have no power option. It just screams toy to me. I own sc5000 decks so what do I know? Lol
as someone living in a place where gigs are pretty much cancelled for the forseeable future, having a battery powered kit to take to parks and for small gatherings has been fantastic. I don't have the Go, but I do have a portable, micro, battery-powered system that has been great for small gatherings, hangs in the park, and just djing in headphones during the sunset. Would love to get my hands on one, but $1k is a lot to spend in financially unstable times.
Also prices are lickely to drop a bit. Expect 700-800 for the P-Go and 1000-1200 for the P-2. And yeah, the cool thing is that their "heart" like CPU, OS, Display, Workflow, Wifi... are all the same across the whole Prime line, which is pretty dope!
lmao yeah see how far you get with the DDJ-200 and no laptop. most people won't need this device, but it's not being marketed as a beginner or entry level DJ system. and when you consider that, you really can't compare the two. this is a battery powered AIO, while the DDJ-200 is a controller that doesn't even have a sound card.
2 year review. I love the prime go. I dropped my pioneer equipment for this and I don’t regret it one bit.
the library access via wifi on Engine 3.0 is highly underated! I have no idea why Denon doesn't advertise these features more.
Still more functions than the cdj 3000
A cdj is not an all in one..two different things.
@@tonykellydjt2805 CDJ still sucks for its outrageous price.
@@BlueHawk80Probably...but not a good comparison.
Thank you for this demo! I'm switching to the Go from the Prime 4 and super excited about the portability it offers!
If Denon could manufacture a 4 Channel version with all inputs found on the prime 4 it would be a massive game changer. Great review as always mate.
It's a game changer already. If you need 4 channels get the PRIME 4.
The GO is about portability...not wireless or 4 channels.
@@tonykellydjt2805 i agree. i don't think 4 channels makes sense for a portable unit like this, you'd be compromising too much in terms of portability.
I'm waiting for an upgraded version of this size/format as it's been around for a few years now... Still haven't seen anything yet (as of 2022 March)
Thank you mojaxx!
Great review🤙
Awesome Straight to the point.
I Own The "GO" and Love It.
I feel for ya, I couldn't imagine Returning My "GO".✊
Huge fan of this device. Gotta upload my review video soon. I watched your initial video prior to purchasing. Thanks for the inspiration and quality information!
Great video. I'm all in on the Denon prime eco system now with a prime 4 and prime go. However just as you pointed out the effects issues and lack of beatsource (which I'm a subscriber) is troubling. Any idea about when an update could be coming?
No dates to give you, but Beatsource LINK is definitely coming soon, and I know Denon DJ have heard me on the FX.
Mojaxx, you're a legend, love your reviews and insights. Keep it up mate!
Honestly I want one just to take it and a JBL boombox to a park or something and hang out with people for a few hours.
How do u connect to JB tho?
You don't need $1000 System to sit in the park. For that all you need is a phone or tablet.
@@tonykellydjt2805 well said. Very well Said
@@MrBobDigits via audio cables
i already have a PartyBox 100, and recently bought a Prime Go - guess what i'll do :)
Wicked video 👌 straight to the point 👍👍👍👍👍
Did you say that Beatsource is not available rtnow??

Absolutely looking forward to the 6000 review!!!
thanks mojaxx i love my prime go very portable this thing is awsome
Got mine today and love it! The LED for Mic 2 is continuously flashing though. Any idea why?
I use the Traktor S4 MK3 USB to my macbook pro able to see the unit in OBS as an audio device, can you do the same with the Prime Go or do I need an soundcard device?
That He-Man figurine though... lolz, Great review

@@MixMasterG Childhood triggered. Can't wait for this.
8:50 i luv when performance is huge even though no outputs are used 😂 but yeah, these times are weird at all in terms of music industry 🤔
thanks for the great review does anybody know if Denon has worked on the Updates for hte main fx?
where's the sound coming from if no cables plugged in?
This will be very popular with the mobile DJ market
Very best peace of equipment. No BS features, normal sized perfect device!!!
does it connect through blue tooth too??
No, you would need to connect a bluetooth transmitter to it if you want to use it with bluetooth headphones/ speakers
do you have a gaming channel by any chance? you sound exactly Apex (ark survival evolved). Great Video btw!!
Can you live stream with this as an audio source when connecting to your computer?
yes, you'll need a USB audio interface just like with basically all other DJ gear.

imagine pioneer made the ddj 200 with rekordbox os in it
.. is the battery removable? ie replaceable? or is it built in? Because most devices using battery these days seems to diminish over the course of a year or so ..
The battery is replaceable.
Mine is arriving tomorrow... can you use a wireless Bluetooth speaker with this? Thanks man!
The Go doesn't have bluetooth, but you can plug it into a BT transmitter if you want. I imagine you would have a hard time mixing with the delay, but I guess you could get used to it.
Earnest Mazique Yup, what you said 👆
nice video. I love this unit
I would buy one if it had a serato version
Edit to this post: I bought the prime go and haven’t missed serato one bit. Actually wish my other gear would use engine dj now. Well done denon!
Is this still a viable option in 2024??
hard to imagine this besting an iPad and like a Mixon 4. no?
I'm not familiar with the Mixon, but it looks like it has a more standard layout, and of course you get two more channels for mixing, so I can see where it that might be a better set up for some people.

I have a gig where the sun creeps under the canopy and starts hitting the stage by the end of the day. The Go didn't even flinch in direct sunlight and high 90s (F).
can the mixon 4 run without a power source? The big appeal of the GO is the battery power.
@@djsoo ok, how about an S2 or S3?
you can run a lot of controllers off a USB battery charger with a $5 cable.
can you swap the battery out?
not conveniently
Here for the bear! I wish pioneer would come out with something like this.

No
Bluetooth would've made this perfect for its time. I would've thought at the very least you could connect Bluetooth headphones. (likely latency limitations)
@@2YLITE22 Latency is they issue here indeed.
Yes it is possible!
Just use a Bluetooth receiver, but make sure you get one that has no latency so the very latest version of Bluetooth and look up aptx also

İf Denon is add the wirelles master audio out and bluetooth headphone output to it , it will be best real mobile dj console.
totally news for me, havent been updated on anything new. I love standalone units.
Hey Mojaxx, it's everyone
BIG LOVE MAN
This doesn't look like the level of past Denon products, metal face plate, replaceable crossfader.
its not certi until Mojaxx has approved do you a review of sc6000
If anyone can figure out how to dump the engine prime software and run Serato directly as a standalone unit, no external computer then we're talking something useful.
Gregory Guerrier this is my dream. Been wanting stand-alone serato tforever
Albeit Prime OS is still a bit annoying, it has evolved quite well since 2017 imho. Give it 1-2 years and there should be no more complain.
Looks alot like the old Pioneer SEP-C1...
Damn, this with dual switchable line/phono inputs it would be a game changer, but i suppose theyd be cannibalizing their own sales
Denon dj is above pioneer dj on controllers
Absolutely Not :)
They are above everyone in Standalone Consoles, but their Controller (MC series) are horrible
@@djjanssen6852 the mc4000 is a real nice thoo ^^
mic eq
Will come! In Quick settings.
Resume: like my iDJ Pro from Numark 😉
A good quality bit of kit but not my cup of tea

If you own SC5000s, I can assure you, apart from the jogs, it feels very, very similar in use.

A toy...
I still don’t understand there is a market for that....
Plastic DJ Gen.
Meh!
Save yourself 800 an buy a pioneer DDJ200
lmao yeah see how far you get with the DDJ-200 and no laptop.
most people won't need this device, but it's not being marketed as a beginner or entry level DJ system.
and when you consider that, you really can't compare the two. this is a battery powered AIO, while the DDJ-200 is a controller that doesn't even have a sound card.
So what about a laptop or PC lol with rekordbox & you need to pay for the full rekordbox experience
@@RathOX doesnt the 200 come with some sort of Rekordbox license or unlock?
@@FunctionGermany rekordbox is free but most extra packages cost & i dont think so as its a cheap controller. The more expensive ones do
@@RathOX then it's still a good choice. No need to buy extensions for the most important things.
How do we get a fresh Progrezz shirt?
From a prime go owner myself btw to stay on subject. :)
