    I have been using Engine DJ for a year now and I don't understand why people hate on it so much. Most people I see bellyaching about Engine, when diving deeper, is usually user error. It's not perfect, but it works as it should. I have had a great experience with Engine.
  • @thomaswalber1942
    Thank you, Phil. I'm team djay pro solely because of the fluid beat grid. I love mixing old, handmade disco tracks with new, modern electronic music. With djay's beat grid, compensating for tempo fluctuations is not a problem at all. For me stems work fine.

    VDJ is the best. Best browsing experience, best stem function, best compatibility with any gear, most modification options, no crashes. Only the time stretching algorhythm sounds better on rekordbox.
  • @munkifrog328
    i agree, it's not the equipment that makes you a great dj, it's the ability to fill a dancefloor and have fun doing it

    Great Tuesday Phil. Can't wait for your 2nd book to come out soon. I been using Virtual DJ since 2009 - presents with the free version just a key bored and a mouse and few music I rip from CD and more. Since then, it was so much I learn from getting my music order back then and what I pick up after was mind blowing. Buy the full version since then I am very happy with-it big time. Keep up the great work. Stay blessed Phil.

    I started as 13 years beginner with Virtual, now I’m happy with Djay pro 🙂🙂
  • @prinsiwo
    Thank you! Been out of the loop with the software/hardware and this helps me get back on track!
  • @786Muzik
    YOU GUY'S ARE THE BEST ......HANDS DOWN !!!!!! Cheers 🔥

    I started with VDJ 20 years ago. I’m with Serato since I change my controller in 2020 and Serato Pro comes with. I have also Djay Pro 5 on my Mac and my iPad for the auto mix. It’s the best auto mix for cocktail and dinner playlist. Serato has the worst auto mix. I switch with Serato for the dance night. Great video!
  • watching from south africa i really go for virtual dj it never let me down
  • @realdjvillanova
    I moved from Pioneer to Denon (Engine DJ) and I must say, it was the right move
  • @GuyHarwood
    Glad you pointed out the issues with slow Traktor development. It's painful, frustrating and a growing concern. The roadmap is really underwhelming.
  • @DJVarMar
    Thank you for the breakdown. I'm still with Traktor, and it's great for what I do. I know that life overall is uncertain, but Traktor has us on uncertainty level 9. Native Instruments overall is great.

    Only with the combination of Engine + SoundSwitch I could bring my whole LED mask project to live. Also, very kind team/staff I‘m constantly exchanging with. Anyway, great video, Phil!
