So I had a couple of gigs in a venue that has a terrible load in (loads of stairs as it's a squash club) so tried out the Prime Go+ in standalone mode with Engine lighting instead of VDJ with ShowXpress via OS2L and VDJ.
Bonus was that Engine DJ supported Apple Music directly on the unit and it worked well. Negatives were there the fact the music from the Samsung T7 kept pausing and skipping a fair bit. So many things missing on a software level it felt like I was a DJ 20 years ago. I guess I'm used to VDJ but the amount of times across the two nights I thought "I wish I had that feature" held me back. I guess the customers didn't notice but it was a bit like DJing with an arm cut off.
If VDJ implememted Apple Music it would be a slam dunk!

Can you tell us what you were missing? What did you feel was holding you back??
I know for me personally my prep time when running standalone is a lot more work (Cues, Loops, just getting playlist sorted out right, making sure tags are 100% for me) but I haven't really missed to much when playing standalone vs VDJ (video doesn't count for obvious reason ;-p )
Also, I've had problems with T7s in the past, I know everyone loves them but the last 2 I bought I had the same issues. Maybe a bad batch I don't know.
