Not to be too stupid but this is FW for prime 4 right, not desktop?

And I’m going to need some help with the library management because I use gdrive, and I have no library saved to my pc, my cloud backed up library is the library on internal ssd of p4… I’m not sure how this is going to work…

Love this. Okay don’t kill be guys butttttttttt… does dual-waveforms work across players? Or just A and B layer on players?

  • Engine PRIME
  • SC5000/M
  • SC6000/M

Does it load songs from Dropbox on the fly, like it does it say beatport link? Meaning can you add stuff to the Dropbox and play it without resetting?

Can I still use it as library management, not as a streaming service…

I’ve got many questions but I’ve just gone to work and won’t be able to look at this until after midnight.

(Also a little gutted that yous chose to implement dB and not gdrive, 200gb on gdrive is only £2.49. db charges 7.99 at least.)

Yes, you can add tracks to dropbox on your computer and fetch the changes on your Engine OS device.

Here are some resources to get you started and answer some typical questions.

Has the time stretch algorithm been updated? I might be wrong but it appears to sound better.

Hoping this fixes the frozen playback issue on the Prime 4. Also definitely looking forward to the flexible beat gridding - that is huge for tracks that drift (i.e. anything not produced in the last 20 years…)

This is massive! I’ve been enjoying the beta, so I’m very glad this is now public release.

However, now we have dropbox cloud, can we get Google Drive…? I’ve just purchased 2TB to backup my music on Google, be great if I don’t need to do the same with Dropbox :innocent:
