I mean the best dj controller for scratch maybe a love the plates that are so metallic and heavy that's what i ever wanted in a dj controller good review
I mean the best dj controller for scratching for serato maybe i love the plates that are so metallic and heavy that's what i ever wanted in a dj controller good review also that you said that its the most smooth crossfader i think that's fantastic for scratching
Why 2 decks? And why not 12s. Looks sweet. Love a lot of the features. But I need 4. Great price tho. Gigs have all but gone. I pray this clears up ASAP.
Best 2 channel controller this year so far and maybe one of the best ever created from what I see, but $1500 and no dual effects independently for each channel , no mic echo, no sampler volume? Come on Rane!!!!
Is there a way to buy another piece of hardware to get the features the Rane ONE is missing? I mean mic echo is simple to get through lots of standalone mic supporting devices. I just don't know what is independent dual effects... Also what's a sampler volume?
I have a s8 and I like it , but am going to add 2 turntables for dvs , still 4 decks and can mix real vinyl if I want , think it was 1000$ when I bought it , looking back this would of been comparable , but I mix dnb so I need 4 decks
This is the only reason why I haven't purchase it yet! No on board effects! Who wants to go through Serato for these effects? Still debating on the Pioneer Rev 7 which is currently on back order. They have a lot more features, but think the Rane is built more like a turntable! Pioneers are a lot more money too! $500 more! Is it worth the extra money? Heard the pioneers have bad cross faders if you are into scratching. Last about 6 months. that's the negative on the Rev 7. So which one is better??? Pioneers look a lot better and have led screens for your tracks. Still deciding. Rane ones are in stock too!
I have both the Numark NSIII and now the Rane ONE, I am not a turntablist but grew up on turntables so it was a no brainer. It is so smooth as I am more of a HOUSE Dj. Love this unit.
It's now listed as "coming soon" on The vIrtual DJ homepage, which means native support is on the way So if you need more options for this controller, and better support for things like direct streaming and STEMS separation, that should be coming shortly :)
I just bought this unit and all I can say is WOW! I have always been sceptical about digital DJing being from a vinyl background, but this really was worth it. Originally I was looking at the Rain 12 decks and while I thinkj that they're awesome, the overly complicated mixer really put me off. The Rane One allows me to connect my decks as well so all I can say is that a lot of thought went into designing this. I still don't know how half the shit works but am working on that ;-). Excellent review!
Hey Thxs for the video it has helped a lot. I have had mine for about 3 weeks and I absolutely love it. Still learning all the features but your video has help out tremendously!!!
Ever since the Numark NS7iii was discontinued I've been waiting for a controller like this. Fingers crossed that Rane releases one that supports 4 decks!
@@jazzimilah66 both Rane and Numark are owned by inMusic , it's a bit fishy that the ns7 was discontinued , and the Rane one has arrived this year . lol .
Nothing fishy, just doesn't make business sense to have two similar products in the same category. The Rane One is more focused for the turntablist market with paddle effects and the Rane build quality so will sell better no doubt.
I, as a 58-year-old man, would really love to learn. I have A DDJ1000 but cannot do much except use it as a music player. I cannot afford your courses at this time and missed out on your 50% discount over the holidays. Hopefully, you can offer that special again someday soon. Love your videos.
Thanks so much for this review dude! I ordered mine today after lots of deliberation as I've been Pioneer forever but this review just seals it for me!
@@DJNaturaultoneI’m in love with it and every DJ I know that has one feels the same. It does need TLC now again in regards to keeping pads clean and dust free to maintain that optimal function but aslong as it’s looked after it will perform!
This video was brilliant. Self taught, analog background in TTs with a dabble in scratching. Been wanting something that is the perfect hybrid of TT feel with compact digital convenience with good Xfade adjustability that's actually easy to use. Went to Traktor but it never really clicked with me on my 1210s Really appreciated in the video how to use each bit of functionality, I've been out of the game and missedhow quickly it come on. This appears to be the perfect product for me and building on my background which seems to have no flaws I would ever care about. Thank you.
Yes I agree with you totally. I just purchased the ring one a couple days it go and I'm already in love with it. I'm DJ E-40 smooth groove entertainment
I’ve been waiting for this been a rekordbox user all my dj journey but after seeing the Rane One I’m gonna have to switch no doubt and purchase one amazing controller like this one
Poor guy never heard of Technic 1200’s. Bought my first pair in 1985 and the quality then could outshine the stuff now. I appreciate RANE and it’s tribute to the OG’s of Turntablism. The perfect blend of old and new school. This is my go to DECK, and I’m 53 years old!
Really hope you can buy spare Rane One platters like you could with the nsx, because I'll be replacing my SC5000m platters with the Rane Ones. Love that SL1200 look
Man, I hope this inspires some competition from the other brands to give us some great products! RANE did very well with this controller, shame it already sold out lol
I literally invested in a Denon Prime 4 only a few days before this video was released, that was after months over deliberating and considering various all in one controllers. One of my main reasonings for going for the Denon was down to two reasons, 1: Denon have really been pushing the envelope in DJ technology for a while now and I was impressed with their cdj that included the 7inch platter. 2: After now needing a replacement laptop, I am sick and tired of having to give thousands to Apple for a reliable laptop, hence looking for a stand alone. However, considering Denon had put so much effort and thought into the Prime 4 controller, I was disappointed that they did not include 7 inch platters on it... It would have been understandable if they had no history in featuring such technology, but they had just released their new Denon CDJs with 7 inch rotating platters. I am yet to really give my prime 4 a real run for its money, so the jury is still out on it. That being said, this Rane controller is exactly that I have been looking for since working with dj controllers. Its perfect, the layout, the platters, the simplicity, it is tailor made for djs such as myself, who started out on vinyl and want to maintain that feel coming from such beginnings. I've watched soooo many reviews from this chanel and Jamie always gives great reviews, but usually takes and impartial stand when summerising. To hear him say this is the best controller he has ever used (or words of that effect) just speaks volumes!!! In other words it's perfect! With decades of using Technics mixers, Vestax of every model and Rane mixers I and every other dj and/or turntablist will know the durability and quality of Rane mixers, their cross and up faders, there is nothing more to be said, their history and products speaks for themselves. I have always looked for a controller that I can work with at home and practise my sets on it so much that there becomes a comfort and muscle memory that I could also take the controller with me and have that comfort while playing out. I became a traktor user because of the mobility of an s4 that could be alternated to a z4 and turntables. However, their platters on all traktor controller's (excluding the new mk3s) has always been for me a none starter for me/crap. This Rane controller looks so perfect it is making me want to go buy a new laptop, move over to serato and go buy one ASAP. Well done to Rane and well done to crossfader, the review is really appreciated ... Awesome, awesome, awesome. Okay I'm a little excited 😆😆😆 Can't wait for it's release... Fire!!!!
I'm like right there about to buy one of these. I just have two issues: 1) I really wish it had 10" platters, and 2) I wish the mixer section was a bit wider. It looks really cramped. Like Jaime said, "built to last a lifetime". I'd be super ticked at spending $1400 for this unit only for Rane to come out with a One.2 with 10" platters a year later.
I had turntables when i was 18 45 now!) been using the sb3 these last 12 months and really enjoying it, still getting through using effects etc, but i want to get the feel back of using vinyl and the action of mixing it without splashing out on turntables and vinyl and these look ideal. Im guess it's not essential you need to be a scratch dj to decide to go for these, i would use them mostly for beat matching by ear etc.
I've heard people complain that it doesn't have internal effects, which is a silly complaint. I have over 35 years as a musician and recording/mixing engineer and *everyone* who has a digital audio workstation like ProTools, Studio One, Ableton Live, Logic Pro, has been using software effects for a very long time...like decades. Those software effects are every bit as good as anything you'll find in a hardware unit.
Thanks for the review. I learnt on the 1200’s and moved to controllers as I was not mixing as much, while that was fun I’ve been waiting for this exact thing so glad they have released it.
Fantastic product! I've been waiting years for a controller like this! For all fellow DJs coming from a turntable background and historically for me it was Technics 1200, Numark CDX, Denon 3700, NS7 II and now Rane Twelves. This product is smaller and almost 10 lbs lighter than NS7 II which will be great for portability. There are 2 things I noticed right away that are unfortunate but I can live with. #1. Mics don't have "talkover or ducking" feature which is so useful for mobile djs like me. Also, the little on/off switch is so small, might as well just leave them on all the time. So glad they had 2 quality combo XLR/TRS mic channels though! #2. No sampler volume knob? Unless I missed it, I don't see how to control volume for sampler. Thanks RANE! I'm excited about this product. -DJ Libertad
For $1500, Pitch n Time/DJPro features should've been included! Hardware FX and a 4 channel would be dope. Or, a 72 middle screen & features. What's the warranty? Brushless motors?
Great review. This as a standalone who can also read Rekordbox USB sticks (as Pioneer CDJs are the standard in every club here) would be my dream controller.
Had a closer look, and on a second thought I guess my Numark NS7iii has more options than this. I may buy this for portability. But, still 6 year old Numark NS7iii is a champ. And people portrays RAVE ONE as first moving platter controller is hurting me. I had NS7ii and NS7iii. both are with moving platters and more options.
@Crossfader, hi do you know if this is better than the DDJ 1000SRT? I just spent a boatload on that about a year ago and now this comes out?!?!? Oh man... this sucks =(
@@battosaijenkins946 - This is not as feature-packed, but it's a higher quality alternative to the Pioneer. Some are already calling this the greatest controller ever produced.
@@SuperPussyFinger Ugh... im debating on whether to sell my crappy srt now. I wonder if Rane One is holding back and maybe going to release like a better Rane One MKII like they did with the Rane 12s? Something about it really does seem lacking... like they did it on purpose.
@@battosaijenkins946 - I don't think you should feel bad about rocking the DDJ-1000-SRT. That's still a beast of a deck, and to date, still the king of controllers. The Rane One is more of a premium specialty deck for scratching enthusiasts. You've got yourself a real workhorse that can do it all, and there's no regrets in that. You are right that Rane will top itself with every iteration, as all manufacturers tend to do. Enjoy that Pioneer SRT for what it is, the envy of almost every other DJ on earth.
@@54dbruno Nun is wrong with using my ears but you self would be looking at your laptop if it's on the side or in front of you. So instead all that the little display would of come in handy. I know where you coming at, but I'm pretty much old school too but beat matching by ear kinda old now.
Its cool that a new controller with spinning platters is getting attention. But I feel Numark didn't get the same love on the release of NS7iii. NS7iii is a powerful beast but I feel like it got snubbed because of the brand. I still love my NS7iii. Its feature packed and can do anything the Rane One can do, & more (4 channels, nuff said). The best thing I see on the Rane One is the layout resembling modern pro mixers which I like. I just feel that the NS7IV would've rocked if it was ever really a thing, but still not have been worthy as the brand name like Rane. Just my opinion. Thank you for the review though. Very comprehensive.
I believe I can offer a different perspective being that I repair DJ & Pro Audio gear. I know there's been no shortage of NS7II comparisons & based off their reputation alone, one would assume that the Rane One's build quality trumps that of Numark eventhough they're both under the InMusic umbrella. I've worked on at least a dozen NS7IIs over the years & only recently did I have the opportunity to repair a Rane One with a faulty motor assembly...same issue that many SC6000M owners are experiencing. Now that I've had the chance to look at the One's guts and components I can honestly say with confidence that the NS7II is of better quality... by far. Actually it's not even close. NS7II has superior potentiometers, capacitors, mosfets, transistors, diodes etc. down to the soldering. Even the performance pads. The pads on the NS7II are of the same pads you'd find on old school MPC consoles. The pads on The One are comparable to pads found on modern day entry level Akai midi controllers. Matter of fact, the only thing that's indisputably better on The One is the crossfader. It just goes to show how people are quick to pass judgment based on perception & past reputations. This is not the same Rane that people have come to know them by. Define "built like a tank". What are you basing that off of? It's weight? Because the same can be said about the NS7II. I would say it's just Numark with better "clothing" but from what I've seen, it's inferior to 2000's Numark. Parts don't lie.
I never really buy the first thing that comes out. I wait a good 6 month or so for many different reviews.Or even for another improved model again. But it’s a move in the right direction and I’m well happy
you’re basically describing the denon sc6000ms with a mixer of your choice-expensive but only alternative for now unless denon / range / numark decides to make a controller version like pioneer did with the XDJ lines
when they make a 4 channel, put the tension adjust on the outside, put effects and eq on the mic line and keep the Bluetooth line and make it native map with djay pro a,i even though im a Serato user, I will buy one
Thanks for the review. Another reviewer mentioned a persistent noise coming from the platters a their spinning. Did you or anyone in your office notice this during their time with the unit?
After all these years together I’ve just found out that she doesn’t love me and never has😢😢 she said no 😢 On the plus side. She moves out today and my rane1 turns up the 3rd of next month 👍👍
This controller looks amazing. I have to say , since i have owned the ns7111, it has alot more features. Shoot you can even just touch the top of the med high low , and it will mute. It has roll on the filter if you want. The platters (vinyl) are great, adjustable tourqe, they can be used like cdjs as well, and all that stuff. It is very heavy, very durable. Also it has screens you can plug into at the top, and 4 channels. I could go on. I think this would be great for a smaller version to save space. Now the 7 is about 500 dollars cheaper too. Great review, good product, i just had to put this out there because djing is exspensive! Great review as always.
Thanks for the review, really comprehensive. I've been hung up on upgrading to the Roland DJ 808 but resisted all through lockdown. I'm going to get mine on order tonight. 😎
Mr. Hartley first off superb review. Next just for me and others could you do a side by side with the RANE ONE and the NS7. Also, I had started saving towards a DDJ 1000 or SRT and the ONE appears in 2021... I do enjoy scratching and also enjoy the 4 channels of my SX2. From your review of the 1000/SRT that seems to be club dj style more than turntablists style, although it was reviewed by many as one of the best scratch decks around. The cost is to close to really cry over. How do you compare the ability to scratch between the 1000/SRT and the ONE?
If you plug a CDJ in can you use that as a 3rd Deck, so essentially Deck 1's Upfader and EQ's control the sound of the CDJ WHILE STILL HAVING a Tune playing on Deck 1? Kind of like how you can do with 'Layers' on the SB3 ect so you can blend 3 tracks ect? Also if you have a tune playing on Deck 1 and you load a sample/tune in from Scratchbank on Deck 1 does the original Tune on Deck 1 continue to play, so you can laying your Sample over what is already playing on Deck 1? Trying to figure out how gimped it is only having 2 Decks out the box, man i hate buyers remorse so so bad lol :)
@crossfader hey thanks for the review. This looks like the one. I’m a intermediate DJ. Haven’t had my hands on anything in a few years and am looking for the best feel. Thing is, I DJ for my own hobby now and really would like a 4 channel mixer as I like to blend a more complex mix. I’ve owned a ddj sx and loved it but personally it just didn’t have the feel of the vinyl I’m looking for I know it comes down to finess and have seen some friends like my boy @candlestickem do some amazing things as far as scratching with jogwheels but for me I think the resistance and jog wheel size will satisfy my craving. What do you think? Rane 1 or a 4 channel mixer
Trust me there’s no need to chase the latest and greatest equipment. You’re basically paying for look/build quality and effects. In 2021 pretty much every dj controller can do the exact same things.
@Keith Lee Push2 is a totally different product and I would never wanna switch it with a DJ controller as using ableton squeezes much more creativity out of my head than any dj software can do currently. but if i could have both worlds, I'd go for that masterpiece controller too.
@@Crossfader Bro I have the NS7III and is a well build, is like heavy duty controller tank!!! also has better quality buttons than the RANE ONE thery're plastiky ones!!. but still RANE ONE and NUMARK are the same company for several years. Props!!!
I started on software & controllers. I currently use a Numark NV. To improve my scratching & juggling, I think a motorized platter would help. Should I get this, go for a traditional dvs setup, or straight up learn on some vinyl?
Looks amazing. Minor point the pitch fader is very close to the up fader. Probably minor though in reality. I'm dead keen on getting one anyway. Great review
Great review! I think the same way, great controller. I still don't understand why in 2021 still there is no controller with 48v phantom power for condenser mics.
@@Crossfader This is because the majority of the DJs are 18-20 years ignorants and they don't have the knowledge to understand the difference. If someone explains them and show them the proper examples, then they will never go back to a dynamic mic. Yes with a dynamic mic the feedback is less pronounced, but if the condenser mic is chosen properly with the right pick-up pattern, this is a game-changer. Thanks for your comment!
@@goahead8247 ns7 might be a lil heavier but to me its the same thing really cant see whats all the hype about . that said its a n amazing kit for a civilized times

Absolutely correct. I loved my NS7. I'm sure I'm gonna love this one. Bad thing is I just bought the DDJsrt 1000 last year. lol

Take away Mag crosfader and jogwheel size and NS7III is way more superior over the Rane ONE

With decades of using Technics mixers, Vestax of every model and Rane mixers I and every other dj and/or turntablist will know the durability and quality of Rane mixers, their cross and up faders, there is nothing more to be said, their history and products speaks for themselves. I have always looked for a controller that I can work with at home and practise my sets on it so much that there becomes a comfort and muscle memory that I could also take the controller with me and have that comfort while playing out. I became a traktor user because of the mobility of an s4 that could be alternated to a z4 and turntables. However, their platters on all traktor controller's (excluding the new mk3s) has always been for me a none starter for me/crap.
This Rane controller looks so perfect it is making me want to go buy a new laptop, move over to serato and go buy one ASAP. Well done to Rane and well done to crossfader, the review is really appreciated ... Awesome, awesome, awesome. Okay I'm a little excited 😆😆😆 Can't wait for it's release... Fire!!!!
I'm like right there about to buy one of these. I just have two issues: 1) I really wish it had 10" platters, and 2) I wish the mixer section was a bit wider. It looks really cramped. Like Jaime said, "built to last a lifetime". I'd be super ticked at spending $1400 for this unit only for Rane to come out with a One.2 with 10" platters a year later.
I'd love to see a 10" platter version of this.
I had turntables when i was 18 45 now!) been using the sb3 these last 12 months and really enjoying it, still getting through using effects etc, but i want to get the feel back of using vinyl and the action of mixing it without splashing out on turntables and vinyl and these look ideal. Im guess it's not essential you need to be a scratch dj to decide to go for these, i would use them mostly for beat matching by ear etc.
Ok, I want this!!!!! It's love at the first sight!
Same here
I've heard people complain that it doesn't have internal effects, which is a silly complaint. I have over 35 years as a musician and recording/mixing engineer and *everyone* who has a digital audio workstation like ProTools, Studio One, Ableton Live, Logic Pro, has been using software effects for a very long time...like decades. Those software effects are every bit as good as anything you'll find in a hardware unit.
Thanks for the review. I learnt on the 1200’s and moved to controllers as I was not mixing as much, while that was fun I’ve been waiting for this exact thing so glad they have released it.
Just brought one and I'm ready to break it in!
Fantastic product! I've been waiting years for a controller like this! For all fellow DJs coming from a turntable background and historically for me it was Technics 1200, Numark CDX, Denon 3700, NS7 II and now Rane Twelves. This product is smaller and almost 10 lbs lighter than NS7 II which will be great for portability. There are 2 things I noticed right away that are unfortunate but I can live with.
#1. Mics don't have "talkover or ducking" feature which is so useful for mobile djs like me. Also, the little on/off switch is so small, might as well just leave them on all the time. So glad they had 2 quality combo XLR/TRS mic channels though!
#2. No sampler volume knob? Unless I missed it, I don't see how to control volume for sampler.
Thanks RANE! I'm excited about this product.

Wow! I recently purchased the Pioneer xdj-rx2, and now I need to sell it because I want that Rane.
For $1500, Pitch n Time/DJPro features should've been included! Hardware FX and a 4 channel would be dope. Or, a 72 middle screen & features.
What's the warranty? Brushless motors?
Great review. This as a standalone who can also read Rekordbox USB sticks (as Pioneer CDJs are the standard in every club here) would be my dream controller.
I am using NS7iii. After all those years I found an upgrade option now.
Not sure if this is much of an upgrade.
When big power goes to fooly brains thats big shame..
Had a closer look, and on a second thought I guess my Numark NS7iii has more options than this. I may buy this for portability. But, still 6 year old Numark NS7iii is a champ. And people portrays RAVE ONE as first moving platter controller is hurting me. I had NS7ii and NS7iii. both are with moving platters and more options.
Most detailed review out there🔥
If those platters were on the Prime 4 it would be,
GAME OVER‼️
straight!
@Crossfader, hi do you know if this is better than the DDJ 1000SRT? I just spent a boatload on that about a year ago and now this comes out?!?!? Oh man... this sucks =(
@@battosaijenkins946 - This is not as feature-packed, but it's a higher quality alternative to the Pioneer. Some are already calling this the greatest controller ever produced.
@@SuperPussyFinger Ugh... im debating on whether to sell my crappy srt now. I wonder if Rane One is holding back and maybe going to release like a better Rane One MKII like they did with the Rane 12s? Something about it really does seem lacking... like they did it on purpose.
@@battosaijenkins946 - I don't think you should feel bad about rocking the DDJ-1000-SRT. That's still a beast of a deck, and to date, still the king of controllers. The Rane One is more of a premium specialty deck for scratching enthusiasts. You've got yourself a real workhorse that can do it all, and there's no regrets in that. You are right that Rane will top itself with every iteration, as all manufacturers tend to do. Enjoy that Pioneer SRT for what it is, the envy of almost every other DJ on earth.
Wow...... That Song sampler thing that snaps tracks into decks instantly.... Siiiiccckkk for quick performance sets redbull 3 style
I would of appreciated a little screen on it to display the bpm readings so I won't have to be looking over to my laptop.
That's right! I was thinking hard what this is missing that I'm going to need! Still buying it though!
Anyway, it's 'would have'..lol
Great point👌🏼
What's wrong with using your ears?
@@54dbruno Nun is wrong with using my ears but you self would be looking at your laptop if it's on the side or in front of you. So instead all that the little display would of come in handy. I know where you coming at, but I'm pretty much old school too but beat matching by ear kinda old now.
Its cool that a new controller with spinning platters is getting attention. But I feel Numark didn't get the same love on the release of NS7iii. NS7iii is a powerful beast but I feel like it got snubbed because of the brand. I still love my NS7iii. Its feature packed and can do anything the Rane One can do, & more (4 channels, nuff said). The best thing I see on the Rane One is the layout resembling modern pro mixers which I like. I just feel that the NS7IV would've rocked if it was ever really a thing, but still not have been worthy as the brand name like Rane. Just my opinion. Thank you for the review though. Very comprehensive.
It looks really nice - maybe it's finally time to upgrade my SB2 Serato controller 😬
Yes me too :)
I believe I can offer a different perspective being that I repair DJ & Pro Audio gear. I know there's been no shortage of NS7II comparisons & based off their reputation alone, one would assume that the Rane One's build quality trumps that of Numark eventhough they're both under the InMusic umbrella. I've worked on at least a dozen NS7IIs over the years & only recently did I have the opportunity to repair a Rane One with a faulty motor assembly...same issue that many SC6000M owners are experiencing.
Now that I've had the chance to look at the One's guts and components I can honestly say with confidence that the NS7II is of better quality... by far. Actually it's not even close.
NS7II has superior potentiometers, capacitors, mosfets, transistors, diodes etc. down to the soldering.
Even the performance pads. The pads on the NS7II are of the same pads you'd find on old school MPC consoles. The pads on The One are comparable to pads found on modern day entry level Akai midi controllers. Matter of fact, the only thing that's indisputably better on The One is the crossfader.
It just goes to show how people are quick to pass judgment based on perception & past reputations. This is not the same Rane that people have come to know them by.
Define "built like a tank". What are you basing that off of? It's weight? Because the same can be said about the NS7II. I would say it's just Numark with better "clothing" but from what I've seen, it's inferior to 2000's Numark. Parts don't lie.
thanks for your experienced comment. So refreshing to hear some trade honesty 🙏
Excellent Review of the RANE ONE!
I never really buy the first thing that comes out. I wait a good 6 month or so for many different reviews.Or even for another improved model again. But it’s a move in the right direction and I’m well happy
Same, There is a big hype for the moment, I’ll wait the return of the « beta testers » before getting these.
Agree fully with @Sick James . Such a great go over of all of the features... I'm just waiting for mine at the moment... Ahh cannot wait.
Just need Rane/Denon/Numark to make a standalone version of this, HOW WICKED WOULD THAT BE????
I mean... its a no brainer right? Imagine a lovechild of this and Prime 4???
you’re basically describing the denon sc6000ms with a mixer of your choice-expensive but only alternative for now unless denon / range / numark decides to make a controller version like pioneer did with the XDJ lines
as long as it doesn't use Engine,that software is booty!
when they make a 4 channel, put the tension adjust on the outside, put effects and eq on the mic line and keep the Bluetooth line and make it native map with djay pro a,i even though im a Serato user, I will buy one
They need to make something like this for rekordbox ❗️❗️❗️
YES! I much prefer Rekordbox.
Thanks for the review. Another reviewer mentioned a persistent noise coming from the platters a their spinning. Did you or anyone in your office notice this during their time with the unit?
Everything I've been waiting for in a portable controller!!!!!
Really wish they put the tension adjust on the front of the controller
I have rane12s and now I want the baby version 🔥🔥 how can I sneak this in without the misses finding out🤔🤔🤔😂
"Honey, I shrunk the Twelves"
I know right!
say you washed them and had machine set too hot... "doh silly me"
Antifreeze and alcohol.
After all these years together I’ve just found out that she doesn’t love me and never has😢😢 she said no 😢
On the plus side. She moves out today and my rane1 turns up the 3rd of next month 👍👍
This controller looks amazing. I have to say , since i have owned the ns7111, it has alot more features. Shoot you can even just touch the top of the med high low , and it will mute. It has roll on the filter if you want. The platters (vinyl) are great, adjustable tourqe, they can be used like cdjs as well, and all that stuff. It is very heavy, very durable. Also it has screens you can plug into at the top, and 4 channels. I could go on. I think this would be great for a smaller version to save space. Now the 7 is about 500 dollars cheaper too. Great review, good product, i just had to put this out there because djing is exspensive! Great review as always.
Nice, waiting for Rane TWO with dual effects independently for each channel, mic echo, sampler fader volume
Thanks for the review, really comprehensive. I've been hung up on upgrading to the Roland DJ 808 but resisted all through lockdown. I'm going to get mine on order tonight. 😎
i have the 808 and honestly I would not switch to this one
I have the ns7 ii. Time to upgrade. Hope is not as heavy as the ns7. Tanx for the review.
The Rane ONE comes in at 10kg
Really debating now if getting the MKII with my xdj-xz is a good thing lol 🤔 might just have two setups! Thanks!
good review... im still thinking about the pioneer str1000
i love it they thought of everything.good job!
This looks nice. I bought a ddj 1000 four months ago. I wish I would have known about this one.
Mr. Hartley first off superb review. Next just for me and others could you do a side by side with the RANE ONE and the NS7. Also, I had started saving towards a DDJ 1000 or SRT and the ONE appears in 2021... I do enjoy scratching and also enjoy the 4 channels of my SX2. From your review of the 1000/SRT that seems to be club dj style more than turntablists style, although it was reviewed by many as one of the best scratch decks around. The cost is to close to really cry over. How do you compare the ability to scratch between the 1000/SRT and the ONE?
If you plug a CDJ in can you use that as a 3rd Deck, so essentially Deck 1's Upfader and EQ's control the sound of the CDJ WHILE STILL HAVING a Tune playing on Deck 1? Kind of like how you can do with 'Layers' on the SB3 ect so you can blend 3 tracks ect?
Also if you have a tune playing on Deck 1 and you load a sample/tune in from Scratchbank on Deck 1 does the original Tune on Deck 1 continue to play, so you can laying your Sample over what is already playing on Deck 1?
Trying to figure out how gimped it is only having 2 Decks out the box, man i hate buyers remorse so so bad lol :)
I've used the 12s slot and I was looking at getting some but I might just get these instead. It's a good price and well worth the money
they shouldve added the screens from the NS7III to make the unit a must have in the arsenal even though I have a Prime 4
Even from first glance, this looked like a solid scratching controller, and its certainly one of the best!
It really is! We love it!
Gr8 review crossvader, I'm looking to upgrade and maybe this is the controller for me thanks.
The force is strong with crossvader☄💫
I have a NS7III what would make me buy this???
@crossfader hey thanks for the review. This looks like the one. I’m a intermediate DJ. Haven’t had my hands on anything in a few years and am looking for the best feel. Thing is, I DJ for my own hobby now and really would like a 4 channel mixer as I like to blend a more complex mix. I’ve owned a ddj sx and loved it but personally it just didn’t have the feel of the vinyl I’m looking for I know it comes down to finess and have seen some friends like my boy @candlestickem do some amazing things as far as scratching with jogwheels but for me I think the resistance and jog wheel size will satisfy my craving. What do you think? Rane 1 or a 4 channel mixer
Wow what a beauty of DJ Hardware!
I was kind of worried about the 7 inch as well, but I'm about to get this
Just brought it today, yes baby
I just bought a push 2 last week...whhhhyyyyyyy 😭😭. I want this! Great review as always. I’m a rekordbox dj but I’d learn serato for this
Trust me there’s no need to chase the latest and greatest equipment. You’re basically paying for look/build quality and effects. In 2021 pretty much every dj controller can do the exact same things.
I feel your pain, I just bought a DDJSX3 in November 2020 at full price. If I had known about this I would have waited
@@Smiley869 true but I have a ddj 800 and I’m still using composite jog wheels. I guess that’s why this is intriguing to me
@@keithlee4963 gotcha, that’s understandable 👍
@Keith Lee Push2 is a totally different product and I would never wanna switch it with a DJ controller as using ableton squeezes much more creativity out of my head than any dj software can do currently. but if i could have both worlds, I'd go for that masterpiece controller too.
I've read a lot of reviews about the FX paddles breaking on this controller pretty fast within a week or two of using it
The design is insane 🤩. If denon could make their stuffs as pretty they would sooo be ahead
Rane and denon are owned by the same company (inmusic), as is numark
CrossFader: is the first time we've seen such a build with moving platters on a DJ controller
The NS7-3: Um, excuse me?
On a controller of this build quality :)
@@Crossfader NS7 is well build.
@@jsz5506 Dude the filter notch wears out in like an hour lol.
right LOL i was like come on supposed to be dj ? how you gonna say 1st controller with motorized platters
@@Crossfader Bro I have the NS7III and is a well build, is like heavy duty controller tank!!! also has better quality buttons than the RANE ONE thery're plastiky ones!!. but still RANE ONE and NUMARK are the same company for several years. Props!!!
it worked! thank you so much!!
I started on software & controllers.
I currently use a Numark NV.
To improve my scratching & juggling, I think a motorized platter would help.
Should I get this, go for a traditional dvs setup, or straight up learn on some vinyl?
My dream product🔥❤️
Asking this in 2024… Which one does Jamie prefer now? Rane One vs. DDJRev7?
Looks amazing. Minor point the pitch fader is very close to the up fader. Probably minor though in reality. I'm dead keen on getting one anyway. Great review
The Prototype. Probably do 10 inch platters next touch screen or screens and standalone lovely
Great review! I think the same way, great controller. I still don't understand why in 2021 still there is no controller with 48v phantom power for condenser mics.
The demand for condenser mics in the DJ world is very very slim, hence no one supporting them.
@@Crossfader This is because the majority of the DJs are 18-20 years ignorants and they don't have the knowledge to understand the difference. If someone explains them and show them the proper examples, then they will never go back to a dynamic mic. Yes with a dynamic mic the feedback is less pronounced, but if the condenser mic is chosen properly with the right pick-up pattern, this is a game-changer. Thanks for your comment!
How's this different from my NS7iii ?
Ns7 is the GOAT
@@goahead8247 ns7 might be a lil heavier but to me its the same thing really cant see whats all the hype about . that said its a n amazing kit for a civilized times
@@tonywilson7240 exactly
I really love it. Would you take this over DDJ-1000, if you´re not at battle or scratch dj?
sounds great but no mention of ns7 mk3 which was 1st with 4 channels?
Will order one this year
