      I wouldn't worry. The Rane Four still has the new functions on the EQ with the latest updates. Individual EQ knobs now control Stems. So you have full analogue control using the EQ knobs from value 1-127 (zero to max) on Stems. The new Choppa effect is now on the Four as well. So that leaves the motorised jogs, enhanced displays and enhanced sliders and a couple more FX.
      I mean, how many FX do you really use? I use stutter, echo, echo out, filter, filter roll and that's basically it. All on the Four.
      I don't think I'd use the new slider FX. Already got enough going on!
      Unless you are a professional (I'm not) I really don't think this someone you necessarily need (but you might want - that's another story). Another plus, the Four is lighter. And no motorised jogs means less to go wrong as well.

    One important question, at least for me, regarding the pitch bend...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? 😬

    This thing is great. I am not a turntablist, nor have I ever been one. I’ve simply been making trance/techno/breakbeat mixes in my garage since 2001. Back then, I bought the original CDJ-1000’s and, I was mixing with them right up until two weeks ago.
    I planned on upgrading by buying CDJ-3000’s and a new Pioneer mixer, however, after seeing this controller, I decided to hold off on the 3000’s for the time being. I bought this instead and love it. And, if you shut the motor off, it behaves like a CDJ behaves when vinyl mode on the CDJ is turned off. The best of both worlds. Like anything else, it takes some getting used to, especially if you’re use to nothing but Pioneer gear. But once this thing is learned inside and out, it may very well end up being my favorite piece of DJ gear, yet. I really like the creative options the Performer provides. Thanks for this video.

    Nice review. I’m considering replacing my Rane 72 and 12s setup with this. Mainly because it’s Rane, 4 channels which I like to have for flexibility, has the moving platters, and is more compact. Thoughts?

    • @digitaldjtips

      If the reason you want to make that switch is because of the things you say here, then yes, it makes sense.

  • @rdenir
    @rdenir 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    The only thing that I found was innovative was the ability to have the library view on the Jog wheel displays,,
    I have a Rane One and it’s midi mapped to my liking including the ability to switch from Traditional eq to Stems Eq at a touch of a button all running through my IPad Air on Algoriddim DJ software.
    I really don’t use any effect other than Echo and the odd Filter so all those effects (some of which didn’t sound too nice) are wasted for me,, Not to say it’s not suited for others of course..
    I agree with you that a good controller should last you over 6-7 years.
    Thanks for the review though Phil,, Always as informative as ever

    Is the display the same size as the rane four ones? I think Rane four has 2" displays. Just got a Rane Four a week ago to pair with a Rane 12 and PLX1000 and love the setup. One of my gripes is the lack of customization of the display layout. You can only change time elapsed and remove needle marker. I would like more layout options. Hope they release a new firmware to enable more

    I agree, that myself being a scratch dj, the metal jog wheels are nice, but most scratch djs prefer a battle style layout. My feeling is the pad and pitch placement on the rev 7 is much better, but the 4 channels, effects and stem features on the Performer are great. I hate reaching over performance pads to scratch on most controllers.

Specifically what you referred to around the 7 : 40 mark in your Four review. Are they controlling Serato FX? Can you only use filter on decks 3 & 4 when not plugged into a laptop?

    You are old vinyl DJ, whats your take on this smaller moving platters compared to the ”real sized” like on Rane12 or Crss12? If it’s not the same feeling then you might aswell try to learn use non-moving platters?
    But I really feel uncomfortable on plain controllers atm compared to my 12” moving platter. But since working with vinyl and not working between 1995-2020 that are perhaps easy to understand. But I’m afraid small wheels will feel uncomfortable aswell?

This would indicate I should get an FLX10 but I really want great stems and minimal beatgrid prep - rekordbox is just so bad at stems and beatgrids. Djay pro is so much better - stems sound great and I never have to beatgrid. Is serato very close to DJ pro in these areas?

Having just binged all 3 videos including the comparison video and this one, I remember you saying (and I could be off) that the FLX10 was better for all of the info one could get from those displays. These Performer displays look larger than the ones on the Four which makes me hope that the information available has increased as well. Is that wishful thinking? Am I off?

    I know this is a pie-in-the-sky dream, but it would be nice if they would release a retrofit kit for us techy folks who already have the Rane Four. (I know, I know, that would cut down on profit margins...) Still... I already have moving platters on the 12's so no go for me just for moving platters (unless my Four takes a dump post-warranty).

    x2 CRX12's and a S7 double the price of this and half the features.
    Rev7 kinda shoe horned Rekordbox to work with it but similar price with x2 less Decks and less features.

    Its cool and all but the engineers have to step up their game and stop with the same layout, all though the magnic vinyle is a new tech in platter control, but much of the same thing dont get me wrong in music in my opinion is a TANK in dj hardware but i think its time we see something that is not the the same layout these units are very exspense for pretty much the same stuff you said it a unit that is truly in all one where serato is still the software but integrated into the unit but tablet form were you can remove the tablet and use it for prep mode exct...again hats off to rane for there bulid quality and hearing what dj want

    • @digitaldjtips
      @digitaldjtips  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      This is to be fair a variation on an existing unit, deliberately. We have to also ask: How much does DJ gear really need to change? Do saxophones, drums and guitars change too much every year? Arguably these things are just tools, really.

    • @fatz6782
      @fatz6782 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @digitaldjtips I understand not everybody would want the motorised variant. But given the choice, I would have gone for the motorised platter. The release of the Performer is so close on the heels of the Rane 4 that they must have had both variants in the lab at the same time surely they
      could have waited and released them both together, thus giving the option to Djs to choose their preference. But hey, ho, what do I know !!!

    soon we will see on these dj controllers a way to change the voice of the original artist with that of another artist. artificial intelligence will be present, you will be able to make so many changes to a song that in a few years no one will know what the original sounds like
