Engine OS “brain” - play anything!
The Prime 4 + runs on Engine OS, a powerful operating system with continuous updates adding new and ingenious features.

Track preview lets you pre-listen to track without having to load it to a deck, just press the icon on the screen.
Connect your Engine unit to the same network as your computer running Engine DJ to access tracks on your computer without exporting them. Your Engine unit will automatically see Engine DJ running on the same network where you will be able to access all tracks in the collection and playlists, all analysed and ready to go.

Drop Sampler
8 available sample banks let you load your own or the pre-loaded samples to the performance pads and assign the output to any of the channels or the master output. Where the sampler is assigned to the master output, you can control the volume level on screen.

Lighting Control
Run your DMX light show directly from the Prime 4 + once you have synchronised with SoundSwitch. You can also sync Philips Hue and Nano-Leaf lights with the Prime 4 + with no software or programming required.
Open dedicated screens to control lighting with direct colour overrides, XY movement and auto loops for intelligent “sound to light” style shows.
Ableton Link Compatibility
Users can now sync tempo with external hardware using Ableton Link over both wired and wireless networks. Once Ableton Link has been enabled, an orange link icon will be shown in the top right of the toolbar providing the number of linked devices, sync lead tempo, and phase meter showing the current beat position. When synced, the tempo will match the tempo of the longest playing device. The lead tempo can be adjusted from any device and all other linked devices will automatically follow.
Playlist Deck
Users can now assign a deck as a Playlist Player providing continuous playback with automated crossfading. The crossfade time can be adjusted in the Control Center settings menu.
Extra layer control with the LC6000
