44. Tap/-Auto: Tap this button at least 3 times at the desired tempo to set the rate of the BPM
effect module for the channel set by the FX Channel Assign knob (the module's rate for other
channels will remain unchanged). The Tap button will be dimly lit when using a BPM manually
entered this way.
Press and hold this button for 1 second to synchronize the rate of BPM effect module with the
audio signal of the channel set by the FX Channel Assign knob (the module's rate for other
channels will remain unchanged). The Tap button will be brightly lit when using a BPM
automatically detected this way, and Auto will be shown next to the BPM in the second display. If
you are using a compatible Denon DJ media player with Engine Connect, the media player will
control the BPM effect module, and the Engine logo will be shown in the second display.
45. FX Frequency: Turn this knob to select a frequency band of the audio signal to which the BPM
effects will be applied. Select the center (12:00) position to apply effects to the entire spectrum
of frequencies.
46. Quantize/-Utility: Press this button to quantize the BPM FX to media players connected to the
Link ports.
Press and hold this button to enter or exit the Utility menu, which will appear in the display.
Exiting the Utility menu also saves any changes you made.
47. MIDI Start/Stop: Press this button to send a MIDI Start or MIDI Stop message out of the USB
port or MIDI output (you can use the Utility menu to select one). The tempo will be that of the
selection of the FX Channel Assign knob. If you change the selection of the FX Channel Assign
knob, press and hold this button to send the new tempo.
48. Engine Connect: When the Link ports are connected to compatible Denon DJ media players,
press this button to enable X1850 PRIME to receive timing and BPM information (to synchronize
effect tempos) and to send track and user profile data between media players.
Press and hold this button to show the manual channel assignment on the displays of
compatible media players.
49. USB Ports: Use standard USB cables to connect computers to these USB ports.

1. Power Input: Use the included locking power cable to connect this input to a power outlet. To
remove the power cable, push down on the yellow tab and then pull the cable out of the input.
You can also use a standard IEC power cable in place of the included locking power cable.

after you have connected all of your input devices and before you power on your amplifiers and
loudspeakers. Power off your amplifiers and loudspeakers before powering off X1850 PRIME.
3. Link Ports: Use standard networking cables to connect these ports to your compatible Denon DJ
media players and/or to your computer. Each networked media player can use these connections
to share timing and BPM information with X1850 PRIME (to synchronize effect tempos) as well as
track and user profile data with other media players.
4. Master Outputs (balanced XLR): Use standard XLR cables to connect these outputs to
loudspeakers or an amplifier system. Use the Master knob on the top panel to control the
volume level.
