The release of Engine 3.0 brings two very exciting and highly requested features, a built-in drop Sampler, the first of its kind for standalone DJ systems, and the ability to access your complete Engine DJ computer collection from Engine DJ hardware wirelessly. Frequently Asked Questions How do I access the new Sampler pad mode? How can I load samples to the pads? How can I adjust the volume of the Drop Sampler? What output is used for the Drop Sampler? Do I need an Ethernet cable to connect to Engine Remote Library? Are library and track updates automatically kept in sync while connected to Engine Remote Library? How do I access the new Sampler pad mode? To access Sampler pad mode, press and hold Shift and then press the Roll pad mode button.  How can I load samples to the pads? To load a sample to the pad, open the library view and swipe the desired sample to the right. For all-in-one devices (Prime 2/4/Go, SC Live 2/4, Mixstream), you will have 8 pads shown on screen, tapping the desired on-screen pad or physical pad on a deck while in Sampler mode will load the sample to the pad.  On the Media Players (SC5000/SC6000), the workflow is slightly different. From the library, perform a partial swipe (until you see the Green LOAD button), then tap the word "Load", you will then have 8 pads shown on the screen. Tapping the on-screen pad or physical pad will load the sample. The workflow is different to avoid interrupting the established Media Player track load workflow.  How can I adjust the volume of the Drop Sampler?

Engine OS 4.1 introduces the expanded autoloop banks of SoundSwitch 2.9, increasing the limit per-bank from eight autoloops to thirty-two. As such, the autoloop UI has changed to accommodate these new autoloops slots. This quick guide serves to clarify confusion for those updating to Engine 4.1 and wondering "Where did the rest of my autoloops go?" TABLE OF CONTENTS Autoloop UI Changes in Engine Lighting Additional Resources Autoloop UI Changes in Engine Lighting Below, we've attached an image of the old (pre-Engine 4.1) autoloop layout, which shows eight autoloops per bank in each of your four banks: When you update to Engine 4.1, your existing 32 Autoloops will be automatically distributed across the four banks, with eight Autoloops assigned to each bank. To toggle between banks, simply click on the bank header. In SoundSwitch projects using only 32 autoloops, this will appear as below: You can populate the new autoloop slots in each bank by opening your project in SoundSwitch Desktop, right-clicking any autoloop in the current bank, then selecting Populate Empty Autoloops. Once you have done so on SoundSwitch Desktop, you can export your project for use with your Engine DJ hardware and the new populated autoloops will show in the currently empty slots; An example of this has been copied below: Additional Resources For more information on exporting your SoundSwitch project for use on Engine DJ hardware, please see the guide linked here: Getting Started with Engine Lighting For additional information on the improvements introduced in SoundSwitch 2.9, please see the article linked here: What's New in SoundSwitch 2.9?
