dflux4 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Last week, Denon made an official announcement of their new Engine software, setting Pioneer’s Rekordbox squarely in their sights in their quest to rule the CDJ/media player controlled DJ booth. Does Engine have what it takes to eat away at the industry giant, or will Pioneer’s time-tested workflow stand fast? Read on to find out our take on this battle.When Pioneer introduced Rekordbox in 2010, CDJ users wary of plunging completely into laptop-based performance were given a way to enjoy some of the key benefits of DJ software (pre-stored loop and cue points and hot cues, virtual crate management, quick track searches, etc.) without having to work off a computer during shows. It was as a suitable middle ground between the old and new, promoting the interface and familiar form factor of traditional DJ media players, alongside the greater dynamism and creative flexibility of software-aided performance.With the introduction of Engine, Denon users will be able to benefit from similar capabilities as well – but how do the softwares stack up?More here: http://www.djtechtools.com/2012/03/13/e ... rekordbox/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabRat Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 When denon bought out it's first USB thing they did it so wrong it was a shock. They make quality gear so hopefully this gives them a boost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SolDios Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 The new pioneer series has blown denon away tbh, i cant see them getting anywhere near pioneer.I kind of see denon going down the turntable imitation path rather than just cdj's like pioneers path.
