[@RahulSingh-wg2ic]

That screen on mixer is the smartest thing I have ever seen. No need to look at laptop No distraction. 👍👍👍.

[@DJCouchKing]

Everyone is hating on the S9 already... Dat Magvel fader tho! Won’t be ditching mine right away.

[@joshuahunt6689]

Oh my fuckin God. I got my 72 today. It's seriously something else. I just had an hour in my headphones and I was blowing kisses at it. Pads feel so so sic and the ease of changing through the modes is so easy that it changes the dynamic if mixing for me anyway. So amazing. I love my rane

[@kiumeafuraka9900]

DJCITY TV thanks for the upload and Mojaxx great presentation! I've been waiting for the 72 to drop as I have been contemplating the S9... 1800 I will be investing on the 72. Much respect from the Stl! Da Original Mixing Mr J

[@djopulence]

Absolutely incredible. So many bells and whistles. Neat options, or we can just go with "Phase"

[@Borderlands808]

Plot twist. The Rane 73 AND 74 are in production and ready to release right after you get this one. Lol

[@deejaycarbon]

a combination of turntable and a controller all effects dope

[@StevanDjumic]

Very feature heavy unit, this is easily the best two-channel mixer ever.

[@Djtonydraper]

The entire set-up is Dope!! Thanks for the review Mo.

[@CHATV10]

that mixer and da 12s greatest thing made in djing love it

[@leoprozczinski]

As a proud Z2 owner, I like to see the S9 and 72 on the market as a great combo of mixed and full controllers.

[@jackdaniels9899]

Whens that new Traktor mixer coming out? Or update to Traktor? No? Nothing? Sit down then. Traktor users are the Vegans of the dj world.

[@DJCouchKing]

@Jack Daniels tell that to Crave and Qbert LOL

[@leoprozczinski]

Shiftee says hi.

[@FlipTheCatOfficial]

I only wanted the turntables and then I just checked out the mixer out of curiosity. I already have a DJM 900 Nexus and now I'm convinced I need this to go with the twelves. Hot damn

[@ruudimus]

This was sick! Can't wait to see the PHASE review.

[@druthedj]

This is INSANE! Packed quite a bit into that mixer it's almost overwhelming! #Dope though. The waveform display on the mixer screen is a nice touch if you're like me and struggle to get the markers right.

[@StacksSats]

i still use a Rane TTM-56 lol that Seventy-Two is dope!

[@TheAnunnaki-NYC]

I love my TTM-56S

[@oblevins]

Chris, Outstanding review! I WANT ONE!!! Keep on rockin it my friend...

[@djAXCESSmusic]

Looking forward to doing my first impressions video tomorrow. Great rundown guys!

[@vonz5048]

Cant wait to get my ichy hands on this solid setup mbro

[@tharukkus]

There's so much, it's almost overwhelming.

[@iTomAnks]

Tha Rukkus ! Agreed, it's definitely intimidating for anyone who's new to DJing

[@_brndnbrndn]

I literally was just thinking that as I scrolled down like who in the hell will have time to do all of this

[@monarale11]

I have 12's already and this looks like a pretty good set up and getting ready to go buy one. I can bang a party with anything. I see all these responses on here. Put your hands on some turntables and you'll feel the difference. Some of ya'll new school Dj's stuck on controllers, cdj's whatever you're used too. Don't knock it until you try it.

[@djshaunreed8215]

There was always one thing I didn't like about the Raine and Serato setup, and that was you would always have to go to your laptop to change the song! Now you don't! Great rig I have to have one!!

[@DJKeo]

I'm really excited about this mixer

[@tech1238]

I’ll stick with my 1210 mk2’s and vestax pmc-05 👌😀

[@mrndlprsnr]

exactly the same set up!

[@joaquinyehuda9406]

A tip : watch movies on InstaFlixxer. Been using them for watching a lot of movies lately.

[@brettkaiser4467]

@Joaquin Yehuda definitely, I have been watching on instaflixxer for years myself =)

[@matayus2304]

Added to bucket list 🤞

[@TheFresh654]

I started on 1200s got a ns7 1 then 2 for space and portability , its the same thing to me but bigger because of the size just stick to the turntables , mixer is dope

[@DJDLS]

nice job as always mojaxx :)

[@shaun9107]

Best on ive seen yet

[@andimacthatdj]

I NEED THIS

[@cmfreeman619]

Andi Mac That Dj Bruhhhhhhhhh! Anyone need an S9?? 😂😂😂

[@DjDubStak]

Man i want that badly, but the way my bank account is setup.......... Guess I have to be happy wit my ns7iii

[@DjFrankDogg]

Can't beat my s-9. This setup is like that one guy we call one up. How many efx does a DJ need? The lights look cool but nah over kill to me. That's just my opinion.

[@beatzandwheels]

Youre just mad you havent got the shiniest newest mixer anymore. S9 is a joke.

[@dachopup8495]

If rane dropped a controller that looked like this set up that would be SICK!!!

[@cycling-john]

Using the word hackneyed is a game changer!

[@Thewphimisms]

The crossfader on these things are nothing like on the 56. The 56 had the best crossfader in the history of mixers.

[@AnalogSoundsystemInternational]

It is crazy how almost every new turntable (Midi Turntable) in this case was inspired from the Technics SL-1200 mk2. We've seen so many Decks with similar arrangements and looks which has brought so much variety to the market. I think the use of Serato Twelve in conjunction with Seventy Two is impressive, and I like the whole idea of bringing the vinyl feel into it. But at the end of the day at a price point of $999.00 and all it is, is a midi turntable that DEPENDS on software for control is not really worth it. I really like the mixer though, its very impressive.

[@MIXPRO68]

MAN IM SOLD-ID DEFINTELY WOULD GET ONE-SERATO DID IT AGAIN-SALUTE!!!!!!!!!!

[@richyabautista1254]

El talento no solo es la marca

[@mrbowtie64]

Dope setup! Love the 72 screen.. serato should update ipad remote app to display same features as 72 screen.. i’d pay a good amount for that.

[@SeemaDee]

This is awesome!!

[@killyamomz]

Sup with the lag using needle search? Check the screen on the mixer when he uses it. Those pads are pretty loud too when tapped but the mixer looks good.

[@EddieLynn]

I'm pretty disappointed in the response on that touch screen through the entire demo. It doesn't appear to be as "punchy" as it should be.

[@djresqvideomix]

Good looking out :)

[@connectheezdots]

I'm interested to see how Phase effects CPU performance while Serato is running. Which is why I'm leaning more towards the Twelve's.

[@mrblue1976]

Do these turntables eliminate the fluttering BPM in the Serato DJ Pro software you get with using analogue Technics turntables & DVS control vinyl? If they do, does it even eliminate the fluttering BPM using a digital file ripped from vinyl? Thanks

[@samlinden898]

why put the pitch slider in battle position when you have no harm ???? the only reason we put the technicjs 1200 like this was too avoid to have the harm in the way of the scratch movement. still theses 12 seems very cool

[@mikedenovan4606]

So the RANE 72 is an updated version of the " PIONEER DJM 909" 😅

[@mixit313]

Ugh!!!!! So Dope!!!

[@MCMLXXVIII]

Hello, I would need technical advice regarding the RANE 72 to find out if this mixer is compatible with Mac OS Catalina 10.15.5 (latest update) The drivers available on the RANE site are they functional under Catalina, as well as the firmware update of the mixer. Is all this compatible? Thanks in advance 😊👍

[@tallras1]

Thats awesome!! Cant wait to see the price tag on that setup though

[@jackdaniels9899]

$3,500 USD.

[@tallras1]

Gotcha, give thanks brethren

[@DJCouchKing]

Jack Daniels for everything? That’s not bad actually.

[@Alejandrogurrola]

Great gear!

[@gravelbikestore2844]

Hello I need to know about the precision RANE 12 km2 of the pitch in hid mode like demon sc 5000? Best regards

[@djlive3783]

I'm still trying to get a 62 lol.

[@DeBanked]

Is nice, i think i will keep my sl1210s with rekordbox interface2 and ddj 1000. Great to see though where it is going next

[@LioSintra]

In next year twelve mk2 will have a pendrive port? 😁😁

[@XBASS247]

I like them but how about if you don’t want them in battle mode and got the usb and power lead sicking out like that

[@jeroneallison8978]

I need this

[@analyst_dnb]

Yes for turntablelism, No for clubs

[@klausmogensen8691]

The needle strip didn't look so tight when demoed, and so I doubt the hot cue mode will be really useable for a routine. Maybe it'll get better with a future firmware update

[@EddieLynn]

It looked like there was a delay in loading the waveform on the display.....dodgy.

[@djstarboymixpro-official]

thanks so much, i got it

[@DJLostOne]

The real test will be if the industry adopts them in their booths. I get that what theyve created is great, the mixer will be able to be brought in a djs normal carry but those 12s are just adding weight and baggage fees. For a mobile DJ great, but for club djs, traveling djs , etc thats just another bells n whistle turntable that didnt answer the need. The "phase" answered a HUGE need , the replacement of needles. Its lightweight,compact,rechargeable and NEEDED. The mixer has a shot, much more NEEDED features than a S9, the screen for example. Those 12s though are just not practical with "phase" being developed

[@kayeaye9772]

Dude we've said this for good hardware for years. Its not going to be adopted..

[@asr1083]

Here is my dumb question: with no needle does this just sound like scratching of MP3s or do these sound analog like on old 1200s with a needle? I am assuming it sounds very clean and digital.

[@djeditz473]

Do the Twelves only work with Serato? Can they be used with traktor?

[@ludovicsaurel1418]

Je les rêvé rene serato la fait !!

[@RadINation]

how would I go about linking the rane 12 to my NS7iii

[@jobrwibs]

Beastly stuff. The s9 is good but the 72 beats it by miles.

[@bigdog4789]

This is nice

[@THESUPREMEDJ]

Swap one demon for another, not staring at the laptop anymore but now looking at the mixer.... whatever works, dope mixer, one thing I don’t like is, selecting the effects, seems like too much when I can just press one button to get to my echo or flanger and change the length or parameter, quickly. I’m probably gonna buy the 72 buuuuuut after a few more reviews. And the 12s could have had a way to link them like those V7s back in the day, so you won’t need to use 2 usb, Mo mentioned using it with a different mixer but the other guy didn’t really confirm confirm it but it would make sense. Overall it’s like the flux capacitor of mixers right now

[@yusefandrews6620]

Great product. Didn't realize it was $800 tho. Yesh

[@anttiskate]

I can see how the 72 is a game changer, since it has everything an S9 has and more, but at the same time how it's not a game changer and rather traditional (and complicated). Now, image if you could just come into a venue, pop in a USB stick with your own music and custom settings, and start DJing (like RB and CDJs). That would be something. Feels like Serato DJ itself is still holding back all the possibilities. You still need a laptop, and if you're used to a heavily customized set of settings, you would still need to go through endless menus on a tiny screen to get the mixer performing the way you want it. Switching DJs mid set? Ugh. Still, this just killed the S9. Would definitely grab one, if I had the money.

[@anttiskate]

Although it would be convenient, the technology life cycle of a chipset and storage are way below an average mixer, plus I don't see a future were a mixer would solve your music production and editing needs. I still rather prefer bringing a laptop than my own mixer to a gig.

[@djspair]

I'm only buying it for the Duck Echo!

[@equest943]

He said "the Flex FX were the on-board effects inside the mixer" but he doesn't mean that in terms of the Seventy-Two having an internal effects processor, correct? Like, I can't use regular vinyl and echo out like I could on a Pioneer 909, right?

[@Mojaxx]

GoFYourself There are built-in hardware FX, plus access to the Serato FX, and you can combine the two at the same time (which you can’t do with the S9).

[@equest943]

MojaxxVDJ nice. Thanks for the info.

[@nismonotmugen]

Can you switch the waveforms to horizontal?

[@DonaldSeungIlChoi]

Need to think about relocating buttons. Not everyone is going to use that mixer so the cue buttons will be a pain to use if you need to reach over the platter.

[@monstroPR1969]

Where can I get those blue end color power cables for the Rane 12? Anyone!

[@traum640]

Removable tonearm would have been great

[@akinkunmicook2977]

Dope!

[@D-One]

1:44 The Touch-Strip doesn't​ look very responsive...

[@playlistshift]

i like Hackney though... used to get the oatsbars from the offlicense. who's selling microsds to afford this? Four gran' with the cases and still I gotta get a fast laptop. Finsbury with the tlds

[@faenarae_]

Can you swap out the vinyl for a different color, or put a new slipmat on it, I wonder...?

[@corleon83]

Mark Meighan yes u can

[@mbf6160]

That setup is insane bruh smh

[@theofanistzevelekos4147]

Hello guys. Does anybody know in which country is RANE TWELVE controller made in ?

[@MisterRemix]

Mojaxx. Please tell me you snagged two set ups when no one was looking? Don’t forget about your Mexican cousin, man....

[@SegaSavageMusic]

these are like the techincs sl1200 mk2 the modded edition ones they really should make those and pay the guy for his idea.

[@doublek6966]

Is there any lag with the twelve? Seems no one wants to answer that question. Saw a comment on IG where someone asked if they "fixed the lag". Said they were on a beta unit tho at the time. So lag or no? Or is it dependent on CPU specs maybe?

[@Mojaxx]

Double K This was still pre-release hardware and software, but much closer to final release stuff, and I didn’t notice any of the latency or drifting which people talked about after NAMM.

[@doublek6966]

MojaxxVDJ that's good to hear. Thanks for the reply and all of your thorough reviews!

[@naughtyneill6507]

Nice

[@DJJRCO]

Rane’s 12 inch version of Numark’s V7

[@DjJDUBS]

I want one 😢

[@popscratchie3985]

if the twelve was a player rather than a controller so you could play in standalone mode (with out a computer ) using the mixer screen as computer. they may have had something

[@msbelljones4677]

I LIKE THE REAL TURNTABLE BETTER YOU CAN PLAY YOU OLD SCHOOL 45S ON IT

[@XBASS247]

We don’t wanna be pushing the jog wheel no more or Losing USB sticks, just want vinyl back 🤧I don’t mind paying for Dubplates again

[@djBlindFaith]

We now know what came of the Numark V7mkII... InMusic slapped a Rane sticker on it lol sleek setup but like many have said in the comments the 12 is irrelevant because of PHASE... now if the thing was able to play audio files, you know like have a stripped down Serato built in. That would be a first maybe a game changer...

[@popscratchie3985]

dj blind faith I aggree this set up mixer and two twelves but no computer. That is something I would pay money for

[@chaseaustinmusic]

I just felt that the rane twelve was a let down, it had a chance to go after the CDJ by making it USB compatible; but instead your left with a huge midi controller that 75% of DJ won’t use. The phase quiet honestly bury the following product, espionage since phase will be compatible with Serato, Traktor, Recordbox, you name it. I’ll be waiting for the phase to come out.

[@Ferbeldeyberb]

I'll get you Butler!

[@NastyRhythm]

I love the mixer but i don't think anything will get me to change my 1200s

[@rawselectmusic4395]

Not trying be a hater or anything but I can’t wrap my head around this at all. Most clubs already have a universal setup (cdjs or turntables), and this lacks the portability of a controller. Unless you plan on lugging this from gig to gig or never leaving the house, I just can’t figure out how this is a practical solution to a problem that didn’t exist.

[@elitefamilysports8621]

Raw Select Music no needles that what I like about it

[@kayeaye9772]

Its for DJs that want to stick to turntablist-style DJing. Something you wont get from a controller. Not everything is about practicality... its about who wants to stay true to the art form.

[@coronathevirus3166]

can you use the 72 with real tables ?

[@Mojaxx]

Daniel Corona Absolutely! It’s just a regular Serato DJ enabled mixer.

[@Dannypizano209]

DO NOT USE HEADPHONES WHEN WATCHING THIS VIDEO MOJAXX IS HELLA LOUD !

[@reinsphoenix]

1:42 ummm...ahhhh lol

[@dtwistrewind7361]

Put a tone arm on it or drop £500 off the price, that table is a toy joke,the mixer has some nice features but not really anything extra that can't be done a midi mappable mixer .

[@D-One]

The mixer: is an analog mixer + digital + midi controller + audio interface + onboard Fx + software + screen + touchscreen + 2 computer with one mixer + dedicated software controls, etc, etc.... Not exactly the tipical MIDI mixer.

[@dtwistrewind7361]

D-One agreed its a nice unit but its comparable to a all in one stereo system as apposed to dedicated separates, so that's a lot of device's to be without when it goes down, also laptop face will be replaced with mixer squint, too small to be usable for long periods.

[@D-One]

I agree that if it breaks its a huge problem but Rane has a good reputation for build quality and this is for a very very specific Battle/Scratch audience, we tend to prefer all in one so we dont need to carry a million things to a show, especially in crowded Dj booths.

[@Reticuli]

Which is why having a tonearm on it and media playing functionality off USB drive in addition to the MIDI/HID would be optimal. Also, pretty sure it's made at InMusic's Taiwan factory. The latter might be ok... don't know yet.

[@BisMaxx]

You are a good candidate for a Turntable. Go buy them if you don't already have them. The 12s fill a gap for many. They are awesome.

[@modEfied]

Are they lighter than 1200s?

[@mortlow6688]

no

[@djboogie504no]

as far as new technology .... its bad ass... but for an old school dj... its a bit much because your learning a new language .... but you know somewhere down the line,something else will drop and take the place of this ....

[@iknNR]

no pitch reset? :-O

[@teapots1513]

Looks boom, but the price way too high......

[@TCAMACHO92]

Might as well buy a real turntable with that price. Mixer is the only plus!
