If you receive a database corrupt message after updating, it generally means the database is corrupted. In some circumstances, it is worth attempting to migrate your library again. To do this you will need to delete the 'Database2' folder located locally and on any external drives, you use to maintain your Engine Library. To delete the local Engine 2.0.0 library, ensure Engine DJ application is closed, navigate to Music&nbsp;&gt; Engine Library &gt; Directory, then delete the Database2 folder. To delete a library on the external drive, again first ensure Engine DJ application is closed. Navigate to the root directory of the external drive, open the Engine Library/ folder, then delete the Database2 folder. Now you can start up the Engine DJ application again, and doing this will attempt the migration again on application startup. If the corrupt message persists after the second migration attempt, please take note of the drive name stated in the corruption message, navigate to that drive, and zip all files within the directory except the Music folder.&nbsp; Upload the zipped folder <a href="https://denondj.wetransfer.com/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a>. This will assist our team in investigating the issue further. Until this issue is resolved, you can roll back to v1.6 or rebuild your Engine Library in Engine DJ v2.0. Previous versions can be downloaded from the Release Notes section of the relevant release on the Downloads page.

 If you receive a database corrupt message after updating, it generally means the database is corrupted. In some circumstances, it is worth attempting to migrate your library again. To do this you will need to delete the 'Database2' folder located locally and on any external drives, you use to maintain your Engine Library.     To delete the local Engine 2.0.0 library, ensure Engine DJ application is closed, navigate to Music > Engine Library > Directory, then delete the Database2 folder.     To delete a library on the external drive, again first ensure Engine DJ application is closed. Navigate to the root directory of the external drive, open the Engine Library/ folder, then delete the Database2 folder. Now you can start up the Engine DJ application again, and doing this will attempt the migration again on application startup.     If the corrupt message persists after the second migration attempt, please take note of the drive name stated in the corruption message, navigate to that drive, and zip all files within the directory except the Music folder.  Upload the zipped folder here. This will assist our team in investigating the issue further.     Until this issue is resolved, you can roll back to v1.6 or rebuild your Engine Library in Engine DJ v2.0. Previous versions can be downloaded from the Release Notes section of the relevant release on the Downloads page.

The Sync Manager tool allows you to quickly sync playlists and performance data between your Engine Library and your external storage drive. If your drive already contains Playlists exported from Engine DJ, you can easily select and add different playlists to add to the device while removing unwanted files at the same time. Select the Playlists you would like to add to or remove from the external storage drive.&nbsp; If a Playlist is deselected from the Collection pane, a pop-up will appear warning that unselected tracks will be removed from your external storage drive when exporting. However, if a file removed from one Playlist appears in another Playlist that is still on the external storage drive, it will remain on the drive.

Earlier versions of the Engine DJ OS included a crossfader enable/disable setting in the Control Center.

To disable the crossfader in Engine DJ OS v2.1.0 or higher, set both crossfader assign switches on the front to "Thru".

 Earlier versions of the Engine DJ OS included a crossfader enable/disable setting in the Control Center. However, because the PRIME 2 also features a physical crossfader assign switch on the front, the internal setting was removed in Engine DJ OS v2.1.0.      If the crossfader is disabled in the Control Center prior to performing the update, the crossfader will be stuck in a disabled state.      To correct this, a previous iteration of the Engine DJ OS will need to be installed on the device and the state of the crossfader will need to be changed before upgrading back to the latest Engine OS.      Navigate to enginedj.com/downloads and download Engine DJ OS version 2.0, 2.0.1, or 2.0.2 from the list. For your convenience, you can use the links below to download v2.0.2 for the PRIME 2:  PRIME 2 v2.0.2 - Windows  PRIME 2 v2.0.2 - Mac  PRIME 2 v2.0.2 - USB      Install the earlier Engine OS. For instructions, please visit the link below:  How to Update Engine DJ OS      Power on the PRIME 2 and navigate to the Control Center by pressing and holding the View button or swiping down from the toolbar.    Tap the X Fader button to enable it. The crossfader is enabled when the icon on the screen is lit up.     Once enabled, simply power off the PRIME 2 and update back to the latest Engine DJ OS.

Users with a Denon DJ PRIME 2 may notice that the crossfader becomes unresponsive after performing an update to Engine DJ OS v2.1.0.
