Dj Carlo, great review. I bought this controller and I love it but i have an issue. It drifts my tracks really badly when beat matching. Even if i am using instant doubles, could it be that my platters are defective? Or is there a Serato setting I need to change?

[@BoomDocs14K]

In my opinion, this is one of the BEST videos that I have seen to date covering the Rane Performer launch. Your infographics explaining the features were on point as well as the B-roll footage and comparison sections! You get 10 stars from me because I'm a videographer/editor and DJ. You knock this one out of the park, Dude! #salute

Good morning. When applying the sticker on the platter, is the goal to line the sticker up with one of the 'notches' and, if so, which one? The notch at 12 o'clock or the notch at 2 o'clock? Or does it simply not matter when I place it? There are little white markers at the 12 o’clock position and 2 o’clock position. Was just wondering if there were landmarks I could use when lining up the platter marker. Thanks. Thanks in advance!!

[@CHARLESMADSEN-v9f]

Carlo thanks for all of the great videos you post! I've been dj'ing for a long time and working on getting back into it along with my live sound engineering. Every time I watch one of your videos I learn something new. I bought the Rane One in 2022 partly based on your review of it and my love of Rane products going all the way back to the MP44 and owning a TTM54 for years before moving to Serato and a 61 which I had a big problem with the fader reverse buttons on the deck. I still have my 1200's but they don't go out with me anymore and now I want the Performer!

[@djcarlo]

The Performer is essentially the product of a union between the One and Four! Everything good about each is present in it. I do love your history with Rane too; those are classic bits of technology there!

[@geocapistrano4364]

Great Content as always! I totally agree with you. I personally prefer a more simplified workflow and only 2 channels. The more buttons and knobs and features are fantastic, but for me just leads to confusion and worry about hitting the wrong button when mixing. Rev7 works best for an ol school cat like me.

Fantastic video! Are the Performer's jog wheels plastic or metal? They look plastic yet you state at 2:39 the Performer is entirely metal. I tried the Rev7 earlier this year and returned it immediately due to the jog wheels being plastic and feeling extremely cheap and flimsy. Thanks again for the awesome video!

The top is the only plastic part if I recall right. The rest is either high-grade plastic, or metal. I'll need to check again, but they felt very sturdy

[@JRthepyroguy]

@@djcarlo I'm hoping so Carlos. Thanks for the response.

[@Lava-Puperze]

One important question, at least for me, regarding the feel of the motorized platters...on the rev7 I found it quite hard to sync manually by touching the sides of the platters, slow down is no problem, but push forward/faster was difficult. I'm an old vinyl junkie and on the 1210s we had the spindle in the middle or we could slightly push the top of the vinyl or give it a smooth push at the metal on the side of the wheel if you know what I mean. Everyone had his own technique for it. I found it hard to get the feeling right in this regards on the rev 7, it was not as precise and forgiving as I was hoping for. I know we have the plus and minus buttons, they do their work and they do it good...but...it feels wrong to me to push a button to match the speed of my tracks. Is there a difference between the Performer and the Rev7? Is it "easier" and more precise on the Performer? 😬

[@djcarlo]

Truth be told, there's barely any difference from how I felt it. I actually mentioned that at the start of the review. Nothing can really replace the feeling of a couple of 1200s, especially with the middle spindle to "catch up" with the beats if you ask me

[@Lava-Puperze]

@@djcarlo thanks a lot 👍

I'm thinking of upgrading my 1200s to a performer. I could really use 4 channels with a battle format. This seems to be the answer.

Damn and I just got the rane 4 2 months ago

[@djcarlo]

It's still a good controller! It does like 90% of what the Performer does too

[@magicseadog8674]

Are we going to see a standalone CDJ with stems soon? It seems like controllers are miles ahead of standalone players.

[@djcarlo]

Hopefully! The way things are going, it'll probably happen sooner than later!

[@comptemoi4160]

thx this is really cool however I am waiting after new controllers with the stems function from pioneer

[@djcarlo]

Indeed! The FLX10 only has 3 stem functions. Serato can do 4 different channels, so I wanna see if Pioneer will add more buttons

[@DJKILLAZ2345]

Xd they releasing new controllers and im still here struggling trying to save and get the FLX4

[@djcarlo]

That's a constant in any tech industry I'd say! Cars, phones, gaming consoles, etc. Take this from a guy who was rocking a Nintendo DS all the way till the Switch came out haha

[@Mixalot140]

Is the Performer have better and faster processor than the Four?

[@djcarlo]

I'd say so, just due to the extra features

[@trelawnytownmaroons8456]

RaneOne did not have screens on the Jog. Where did that come from?

[@djcarlo]

Did I say Rane One? I was talking about the Rane Four the entire time! I don't think I mentioned the One at all in this video

[@wilsongyimah8290]

I understand your question. Here’s your reply: Rane got inspiration from pioneer’s rev 7 - first motorized dj controller with a jog wheel display.

[@YassLeTough10]

I have the Pioneer Ddjsx2 since 2014 but this one is so fucking awesome #Flawless love it ❤️🇲🇦🫶

[@djcarlo]

It's intense! This has to be one of the biggest drops of the current decade if you ask me, especially if you're an open format DJ

[@DEEJAYKLONE]

Does this have a mic talk over option? Where the music lowers when you talk on the mic?

[@djcarlo]

I believe so, but let me check again. I recall the Four having it

[@larshardwaretests9561]

Since when does the rev 7 Work with recordbox DJ?

[@djcarlo]

I believe there was an update a few months ago. I mean, finally, after 2 years, right?

[@larshardwaretests9561]

@@djcarlo yeah just saw it on the Website. thanks for telling me, thought about buying a rev7 when it released but as im a rb user and didnt want to switch to serato i stuck with my xdj rx2. Might have to think about that now, i really enjoy using motorized jog wheels...

[@dj2big]

Does it work with DJay IOS

[@djcarlo]

For now, not yet natively. But, the dev team from Algoriddim says it's possible to map it to Djay Pro

[@dj2big]

@@djcarlo thanks for the info

[@Sheriffvlogs]

Would the rane performer work with the rane 12 or 6000m?

[@djcarlo]

Yup yup! Plugging them in to channels 3 & 4 should make 'em work

[@Sheriffvlogs]

@@djcarlo and what about the rane12 please

I know this is off topic but what two record pools do you recommend? I used bpm supreme in the past.

Crate Connect is another good one!

@@djcarlo create connect is good 👍🏻. Thank you.

[@kasperpaisa4245]

I don’t like scratching. In the past I had 1210 turntables. I used it for only for techno. Would this performer be something for me, or is it purely made for scratch DJs?

[@djcarlo]

If you don’t like scratching, the Rane Four might be a better fit for you

[@kasperpaisa4245]

@ Thanks for the quick response 🙏

[@Supaslicer]

I just want spinning platters for the occasional non TT session...like the occasional ftee gig for benefit or personal block party Is the performer or rev7 recommended for a better feel, or would the rane one suffice?? My norm is 1200 mk5s with rane 62 mixer

[@djcarlo]

The Rane Performer would be the closest I'd say

[@misterluxu3886]

Hey carlo whats the best setting for reverb on rane four to sound like the djm or serato fx??

[@djcarlo]

The build in Reverb effect is great! It actually sounds like the DJM ones, so just set it to your favorite parameters

[@misterluxu3886]

@@djcarlo ive tried all parameters cant really get the actual effect to sound like the djm on its regular setting + 40%

The european Price is to high . Its near 1k more than the Four…. I keep my One - otherwise it would be a Option . Great Video Carlo , Thank you .

[@djcarlo]

They did add a lot of extra features! But the One is a great controller as well

Now which laptop should i use to perform with this beast ? M1 is enough?

REV-7 still my best choice

[@djcarlo]

It’s still a good one!

[@djtredeucepodcastmixxworld7891]

The controller is awesome, but the layout is what turns me off still ( I have no use for 4 channel any way), I'll stick with my Rev7 (You can use the scratch banks for Stem Separations by Mapping them, which I did and using clear protection around faders to protect the paint) and wait for Pioneer counter-act with their new surprise, we should already know its coming, it just a matter of time when.

[@djcarlo]

Ohhhh, what don't you like about the layout? And fair point on the mapping, but I still feel like Pioneer should actually solve that paint problem instead of us consumers needing to buy more stuff haha

[@djtredeucepodcastmixxworld7891]

@@djcarlo The layout of the pad buttons not being in the middle but I understand what they did in regards or it would kinda been a clone of the REV 7 but four channel, So I understand them to keep as "Rane Distinguished Quality" from others, besides that its still a nice controller. The Rev 7 I'm cool with for now.

[@neftalifigueroa0866]

Are they compatible with Virtual DJ?

This should be compatible with VDJ!

[@DJSamwellOfficial]

This is the first non-Pioneer controller that I heard of that is Rekordbox compatible.

Oh, you must've misheard. It's mainly for Serato, and the mention of Rekordbox was about the REV7

[@DJSamwellOfficial]

@@djcarlo Oh, OK. Thanks for clearing that up. My bad lol

[@mystery6013]

Dj Carlo. I suggest you make a series of tutorials on how to play on professional equipment. what do you think?

[@djcarlo]

I'd actually consider higher end controllers to be professional equipment! But if you mean CDJs and mixers, the tutorials and techniques I've put up, like beat matching, cueing, transitions, etc all apply

[@mystery6013]

@@djcarlo Yes. the issue of software, file analysis and the technical side is the same. I mean limitations on players such as three hot cue points or four hot cue points. The displays of older players are not colorful and do not have such a clean waveform view. Which gives us mixing mainly by ear. As we know, not everyone can afford the CDJ 2000 or 3000. The CDJ 900 is expensive and does not have a color LCD. I'm learning to mix on a denon sc2900 and a djm 800 mixer. I also have a ddj 400 but I prefer to mix on my denons. now it's a lot easier for the DJ. and I'm making it difficult for myself... Valuable tips from you would be useful. You are a very good teacher.
