Devices & File Analysis

SC6000 PRIME can play music files from USB drives, SD cards, or other connected SC6000 PRIME units. Make sure

you are using only the supported file systems (for USB drives or SD cards) and file formats (for music files) listed below.

Supported file systems: exFAT (recommended), FAT32

Supported file formats:

A

AC/M4A

A

IF/AIFF (44.1–192 kHz, 16–32-bit)

A

LAC

FLAC

MP3 (32–320 kbps)

MP4

Ogg Vorbis

WAV (44.1–192 kHz, 16–32-bit)

Although SC6000 PRIME can play tracks that have not been analyzed yet, pre-analyzing them allows its features

to work most effectively. You can analyze tracks in one of two ways:

• On SC6000 PRIME, load the track: When you load a track to play, SC6000 PRIME will automatically

analyze it (if it has not already been analyzed). This may take a moment to complete, depending on the

length of the track. You can start playing the track from the beginning immediately, though you will need

to wait a moment for the analysis to finish.

• Use Engine DJ software: The included Engine DJ software can pre-analyze your music library to use with

SC6000 PRIME. You can also use it to organize your library, manage your SC6000 PRIME hardware

preferences, etc. (see Operation to learn more about this).

Visit enginedj.com/downloads to download the Engine DJ software.

To eject a USB drive or SD card:

1. Make sure none of its tracks are being played on any connected SC6000 PRIME units.

2. Press Media Eject. A list of connected devices will appear in the touchscreen.

3. Tap the Eject icon on the touchscreen next to the name of your device. If a track on the device is currently

playing, you will be asked if you want to continue ejecting, which will stop the track. Tap Cancel to cancel

ejecting the device, or tap OK to eject it.

To eject additional devices, repeat Step 3.

To return to the previous screen, press Media Eject again, or tap the X in the upper-right corner.

Networking

You can network up to four SC6000 PRIME units together, enabling them to share track databases, timing and

BPM information, and other data seamlessly over this connection.

This feature provides many advantages while performing. For instance, if you are using four SC6000 PRIME units,

you can use one of them to browse through all tracks on all devices (USB drives or SD cards) connected to any of

those SC6000 units. You can then play any of those tracks immediately without having to move a device from one

unit to the other.

To network SC6000 PRIME units together, use the included networking cables to do one of the following:

• If you are using only two SC6000 PRIME units, connect their two Link ports.

• If you are using two or more SC6000 PRIME units, connect each of their Link ports to a Link port (1–4) on

your Denon DJ mixer.

• If you are using two or more SC6000 PRIME units, connect each of their Link ports to an Ethernet port on

a router.

The Link light will turn on when the SC6000 PRIME unit is properly connected to a network.

Configuration

The SC6000 PRIME has several settings that help you customize playback and how information is displayed.

To open the Control Center (which contains links to the User Profile and Settings menus), press Shortcuts.

To open the User Profile settings directly, press and hold View.

See Operation > Control Center to learn about these settings.

Syncing & Pitch Adjustment

To activate sync, press Sync on the unit that you want to control the BPM, which becomes the “sync lead.” After

Sync is activated on that unit, press Sync on any additional units. The tempo of each unit will immediately

synchronize to match the tempo of the sync lead unit.

The Sync state icon in the display will indicate the current status:

• Sync Off

• Sync On

The Sync behavior is determined by the Sync Mode setting in the User Profile menu.

The Sync Lead icon in the display will indicate the current sync lead status:

• Sync Lead

• Sync Follow

To deactivate sync on an SC6000 PRIME unit, press and hold Shift and press Sync.

To set a different SC6000 PRIME unit as the primary, press Master. All connected units with Sync activated will

use the tempo of this unit. You can also tap Sync Lead on the touchscreen to select which layer on the primary

unit is used for sync.

To adjust the track’s pitch, move the pitch fader. You can do this only when the deck is not synced.

Important: If Sync is activated, moving the pitch fader on the “primary” SC6000 PRIME unit will change the

speed of all synced units, while moving the pitch fader on other units will do nothing.

To adjust the track’s pitch momentarily, press and hold one of the Pitch Bend –/+ buttons.

To adjust the range of the pitch fader, press and hold Shift and press one of the Pitch Bend –/+ buttons to

select +4%, 8%, 10%, 20%, 50%, or 100%.

To reset the track’s pitch to 0%, press and hold Shift and press Key Lock/Pitch Reset. The track’s pitch will

return to its original pitch (0%) regardless of the position of the pitch fader.

To adjust the track's key, tap the key on the touchscreen to open the Key Change Menu.

Pad Modes

The 8 pads have different functions in each pad mode. The Parameter / buttons will make adjustments specific to

each pad mode.

To enter each pad mode, press the corresponding button: Hot Cue, Loop, Roll, or Slicer.

Hot Cue Mode

In Hot Cue Mode, you can use each pad to jump to an assigned hot cue point.

Tip: You can use the Engine DJ software to set, name, and assign colors to your hot cue points. The names and

colors will appear in the display for reference.

To assign a hot cue to a pad, press a dimly lit pad at the desired location in the track. The pad will light up when

a hot cue point is assigned.

To jump to a hot cue point, press the corresponding pad.

To clear a hot cue from a pad, press Shift and the desired pad. The pad will turn off when there is no hot cue point

assigned to it.

Loop Modes

In Manual Loop Mode, you can use each pad to activate an assigned loop. Pressing Loop for the first time will

always enter Manual Loop Mode.

Tip: You can use the Engine DJ software to set and name your loops. The names will appear in the display for

reference.

To assign a loop to a pad and activate it, press a dimly lit pad to create a Loop In point at the current

location, and then press it again to create the Loop Out point at another location. You can also assign an

auto loop to a pad by pressing a dimly lit pad while in the auto loop. The loop will activate immediately, and

the pad will light up.

To activate a loop, press the corresponding pad. Once a loop has been created, you can retrigger it by

pressing the corresponding pad again, depending on the Saved Loop Behavior setting.

To delete a loop, press Shift and the desired pad.

In Auto Loop Mode, you can use each pad to create and activate an auto loop. Pressing Loop while in Manual

Loop Mode will enter Auto Loop Mode.

To activate an auto loop, press a pad. The display will show the length of the auto loop for each pad.

To deactivate an auto loop, press the pad again.

Roll Mode

In Roll Mode, you can press and hold each pad to trigger a “loop roll” of a certain length while the track’s timeline

continues (the lower half of the waveform in the display will continue moving forward). When you release the pad, the

track will resume normal playback from where it would have been if you had never done anything (i.e., as if the track

had been playing forward the whole time).

To trigger a roll, press the corresponding pad. Pads with triplet-based loop rolls are lit purple.

Slicer Mode

In Slicer Mode (first press), the eight pads represent eight sequential beats—“slices”—in the beatgrid. The

currently playing slice is represented by the currently lit pad; the light will “move through the pads” as it

progresses through the eight-slice phrase. You can press a pad to play that slice. When you release the pad, the

track will resume normal playback from where it would have been if you had never pressed it (i.e., as if the track

had been playing forward the whole time).

To play a slice, press the corresponding pad.

Use the parameter buttons to change the length of the repeats.

In Slicer Loop Mode (second press), the eight pads represent eight sequential beats—“slices”—in the beatgrid.

The currently playing slice is represented by the currently lit pad; the light will “move through the pads” as it

progresses through the eight-slice phrase, which will loop (this is the difference between this mode and Slicer

Mode). You can press a pad to play that slice. When you release the pad, the track will resume normal playback

from where it would have been in the loop if you had never pressed it (i.e., as if the track had been playing forward

the whole time).

In the User Profile menu, swipe up or down to scroll through the options, and tap an option to select it:

Playback

• Track Start Position: This setting determines where the beginning of a track is after it loads. Select the actual start

of the file (Track Start) or the automatically detected beginning of an audio signal (Cue Position).

• Default Speed Range: This setting determines the range of the pitch fader. Select +4%, 8%, 10%, 20%, or 50%.

• Sync Mode: This setting determines the degree of synchronization applied when you press the Sync button on

SC6000 PRIME:

o Bar: The tempo will be synced, and the track will be automatically bar-matched with the track on the sync lead

deck (the downbeats of each bar will be aligned).

o Beat: The tempo will be synced, and the track will automatically beat-matched with the track on the sync lead

deck.

o Tempo: Only the tempo will be synced (the BPM will match that of the sync lead deck).

• Sync Button Action: This setting determines how the Sync button will act when pressed.

o Toggle: This mode allows you to toggle sync on and off without having to hold Shift.

o Shift Disable: This mode requires Shift to be held in order to turn off sync.

• Always show Sync Lead Button: This setting determines whether the Sync Lead button appears over the main

waveforms in Performance View. You can tap this button to set the deck as the sync lead.

• Pitch Control Type: This setting determines the primary function of the Pitch Bend buttons. Select Pitch Bend to

keep the primary function as momentarily reducing or increasing the pitch, or select Range to set the primary

function to adjusting the range of the pitch fader. The function not used as the primary will still be available by

holding Shift and using the Pitch Bend buttons.

Cues/Loops

• Cue/Loop Quantization: This setting determines the degree of quantization for time-based features: hot cue points,

loops, and loop rolls. Select 1/8 beat, 1/4 beat, 1/2 beat, 1 beat, or 4 beats.

• Paused Hot Cue Behavior: This setting determines how pads will play their hot cue points. When set to

Momentary, playback will start from a hot cue point when you press and hold its pad—release the pad to return to

the hot cue point. When set to Trigger, playback will start from a hot cue point (and continue) when you press and

release its pad.

• Default Loop Size: This setting determines the default size of an auto loop when you load a new track to the deck:

1, 2, 4, 8, or 16 beats.

• Smart Loops: This setting determines whether or not a manual loop will be automatically expanded or reduced to a

conventional length (e.g., 2 beats, 4 beats, 8 beats, etc.) when you set it. Select On or Off. This setting works

independently of the quantization setting.

• Move Cue To Loop In: This setting determines whether the song's initial Cue Point will automatically be moved to

the start of a loop (On), or remain at its current point (Off).

• Saved Loop Behavior: This setting determines the action of loops after they have been saved. When set to Reloop,

pressing a pad with a saved loop will start playing the loop again. When set to Disable, pressing a pad with a saved

loop will turn off the loop.

Display

• Track Title: This setting determines whether tracks titles are shown as the track's Filename or its embedded

Metadata (tags).

• Time Format: This setting determines whether or not pitch adjustment affects how the track time is displayed. When

set to Static, the track’s time corresponds to locations in the track as usual; adjusting the pitch does not affect it.

When set to Dynamic, the track’s time will automatically adjust to account for changes in pitch. For instance, if you

set the pitch fader to -8%, the track time will increase so it is 8% longer.

• Track End Warning: This setting determines how long before the end of a track SC6000 PRIME will warn you that it

is nearing the end. If the track is on the currently selected layer, the platter ring and track overview will flash. If the

track is on the opposite layer, the Layer button will flash.

• On Air Mode: This setting changes the platter ring illumination when the channel fader on the Denon DJ mixer is up

or down, indicating an active or "on air" deck. When this setting is On, raising the channel fader will change the

platter color from white to the selected color. When this setting is Off, the user-selected color will always be shown

regardless of the channel fader position.

Note: This requires a connection to a compatible Denon DJ mixer via Ethernet.
