Engine DJ 3.4 is here and introduces some very impressive Bluetooth capabilities!
First up, we have Bluetooth Audio Input. This addition provides wireless audio playback from a Bluetooth-capable device on your supported Engine DJ hardware. While this might not seem revolutionary at first, the options available demonstrate how much effort has been invested in the development of this update. Users can assign Bluetooth Audio to any individual hardware channel or main audio output, assign to layer A or B on the Denon DJ SC6000 and SC6000M. Furthermore, Bluetooth transport controls allow you to play, pause, and track skip using the touch screen or hardware controls when connected to a capable Bluetooth device, while your hardware screen displays Track Title, Artist, and track progress when connected to a capable Bluetooth device.
In addition to the Bluetooth audio, the latest Engine update offers Bluetooth Keyboard Support, enabling you to search for songs on your Engine DJ hardware more quickly and efficiently. The Bluetooth menu option in the Control Centre allows you to connect and manage Bluetooth keyboards and audio devices.

So, there’s still no stems capabilities in standalone mode. However, we know that inMusic, the parent company of Denon DJ, is making significant and impressive progress with stems development for the Akai MPC range. We’re confident that this means that stems is just around the corner for Engine enabled devices…
