this lacks features basic 2 channel controllers have, you sound like a sell out now I'm unsubbing, not objective anymore

You always give it to straight when it comes to the “pros and cons” that you see! Much appreciated.

Just purchased this and am new to the controller world. Have been following this channel for a while now and I love the way you are being honest and helpful with your reviews. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Merry Christmas 🎄

i really like this set up, ive been tryna upgrade the ns7 but its still alive and kickin 10yrs later.. your review definitely helped. thank you

Been waiting for this review, leggoooooooooo.

Great review Terry. I like how you’re honest about the pros and cons. Well balanced and informative. 👊

Now this is what I call a honest review! Thanks for keeping it real!

This controller is for the Dj’s whose heart is turntables. I’ve never felt at ‘home’ even on the 1000SRT. They’re not much fun imo. Sure they work great and get the job done. I Dj full time, and have been long over lugging turntables to gigs 2-4 times a week. This controller seems to be exactly what mobile vinyl Dj’s have been wanting for a long time. Mine is on pre order, I’m just waiting for it to ship and it can’t come fast enough. Respect, T. Mad respect.

You always do a great job with your reviews. When Cleveland Terry speaks I listen... this controller is great to me and I’m getting it. I currently have an NS7II.

I been waiting!!! Let’s Go!!!👍🏾👍🏾

I been waiting for a review from you

Your videos are getting better. Great work.

Great video! I've watched all the others from Digital DJ Tips, Crossfader but I don't commit to a product until Cleveland gives a thumbs up! I have a denon prime 4 and prime go, so i'm invested into the denon eco system HOWEVER...this controller just looks like so much fun to use. I like not having to bring a computer with me to events but this has really got me thinking...

Reviews is really where you shine bro. Great work!!

Been waiting on the review as well man. Love your content and honesty. I always watch you and dj city. Yup gonna get it. Just right for me.

Great review bro, been my channel to go to for reviews on equipment. Double thumbs Up! Thank you

Very nice review. Thanks! RANE has been known for quality for decades now. This will be my next controller. Very excited to get my hands on one.

Nice review & explanation. Thanks CT.

Great review! Sorry I didn’t say it n the first post. I was waiting for you to review the Rane one as well. Definitely one of the good guys in the community whose word is trustworthy!

Thanks. Been looking daily for your review.

Good job great review Terry, I just picked mine up yesterday. This controller is a BEAST !!!!!! I also have the DDJ 1000 I'm thinking about selling my 1000 now.

Terry excellent excellent review on product you answer a lot of questions of concerned about appreciate the information keep up the good work🎚🎛🎧🎙🎼

I gotta go get me this!! Thanks for the review

Just got mine today! Can’t wait to play with it.

Thank you this. I too was waiting for you to get your hands on the new Rane and give a review. I respect your opinion on gear and wanted to know what you thought after getting your hands on it.

Excellent review man!. One of the best I have watched. Really don’t understand why they didn’t just do a tension control on the outside of the mixer Knowing that a lot of scratch DJs will be using this. I think you brought up a really good point about not having the beats per minute visual with the effects. But overall this thing is pretty sweet.

Superb review as always!!!

Great content fam! Very helpful.

Great review as usual!

RESPECT! Thank you for your work. Dope video!

super dope info!! thank you

My wife got me a 70 for Christmas and I was already looking for a controller. Like your said... Should be a comfortable transition. Perfect home and away set up.

Good Review Terry ! Thx 👍

I just got mine today..... Finally! :D really really impressed with the build quality and CAN'T keep my hands off of it! I absolutely love this controller❤️🤟🤟

Always dope reviews! Thank you! I wonder how hard it would be for rane to integrate the DDJ-SB2 style tech where you have control over 4 decks with 2 channels? Same sleek layout but more creative options...

This is a REALLY nice controller. I currently use an NS7iii and it is A Giant and HEAVY. If I can find a buyer I'd pull the trigger on this controller no doubt. BTW, a great review. Keep up the good work CT.

Great review CT as always! Just curious to know your thoughts on the mics not having an Echo or not being able to talk over? Do you think this will be fix on later versions?

As always great review,

Great video Terry. Thank you

Thanks, your reviews are on point for real world mobile DJs 👍🏽

Everything is transportable if you are strong enough. Lol Great review CT.

Good review King! Very informative. In your opinion is this controller better than the NS7III?

Great review! How do you like the Rane One compared to your DDJ 1000?

Waiting for this...I know it's gonna be good!!

Nice review CT!

I've been using the Numark ns72 and ns73 for several years now more than7 years and I love them both. I simply need an update so after 6 months with the rane I'll hit you back up and let you know how it goes. Thanks for the review.

Thank you for the great review. I have been djing about a year and change and feel like I outgrew the basic pioneer controller I have been using . I have one of these on the way today and I am confident and happy with my purchase. Thank you sir .

Amazing review CT.

Hey Terry, thanks for the video what do you think the 12’s or the Rane One Your Thoughts Thanks

Thanks again CT. I Agree, The Effects would be nice.

Thanks for the information and review. Do you think it's worth upgrading from my Pioneer DDJ-1000 SRT? 🤔

I went to try it in a shop and it is really fun to play with. On the other hand, I have been very disappointed by the upfaders. So I am wondering if it is possible to replace them with other Mag Four faders for exemple ? It is also a shame that the tension adjustment for the cross fader is only accessible from the inside...

Great review! What camera do you use for your overhead?

Hello... I was initially super stoked to see this release. I am still pretty stoked , and this will be a great unit for a lot of DJs. You touched on a few of my main issues with this unit... I do use 3 decks, and the 4th for an Aux. external input... the scratchbank feature could MOSTLY eliminate the need for the 3rd deck, but not completely. I use the Auxiliary as well as 2 mics, so the Aux/Mic implimentation on this I think is the dealbreaker. You mentioned the switches, no talkover, etc... and the auxiliary taking one microphone slot... that I just don't think I want to work around, not for 1500 bucks. Here's to hoping this sells really well, and gets Rane some great feedback... making them have incentive to update it with a future Rane Two or something... better Mic implimentation, with nicer switches, would be a huge plus. An Aux that was separate from the mics,.with a cue function, could possibly eliminate the need for more than 2ch on the mixer... I get this aux will work fine for some folks running looped beats to practice to, etc... and for most.other folks this unit would be workable...so I do see this selling well for Rane. The hardware effects you mentioned, even just a somewhat simple inbuilt effects unit would be great, allowing thimgs like echo out on an analog input would be a big plus... Aside from those things, and hoping for a Rane Two in the future.... a Rane Four could easily be a bit bigger, about the same size as the 1000 or other 4ch controllers, and impliment those extra features...that would be sweet, especially if there is no NS7 IV in the works... I'd live to see the decks made into separates... Seven decks, with a full pad section, and looping controls, stop adjust, etc...that would be completely awesome, then a Rane Serato mixer without the pads and such, freeing up plenty of room to make the mixer plenty awesome, and even a bit cheaper than the Seventy... maybe a Rane Fifty mixer..... a setup lile that , a Rane Fifty/Seven ....would be soooo awesome, and named just about perfect...lol Thanks for the great review... I'm going to have to stick with my current setup a bit longer while I decide what is truly the next best update to my workflow.... thankfully the buold of MC7000 is pretty solid, and the flight case should help it last a few more years, of needed...

Best, simple review 👌

I don’t understand the hate. Great review and I love your vibe man. One thing I can’t understand how nobody noticed or mentioned - there’s no dedicated knob for the SAMPLER volume. That’s one of the most basic thing on all controllers. It’s not a matter of a price, I just think that’s a really really good enrty level scratch controller. A niche of it’s on. Keep up the good work. Gonna search for the Prime 4 review.

Great review Terry. I like you did thing in your review I have not saw with your details and I saw a ton of them while comparing if I was going to buy the Rave Twelves vs Rane One so I like how you should it with the 12. I get my mine on Friday 30. I been rocking with Techs 1200's since 1984 still work great still original pop up lights but minus the scratches and feet being taped on they play and work great.I know this sound crazy but I feel bad leaving the Techs they are so comfortable to me and all I know never rocked a controlla I hope I made the right buy. I love that Rane put the sep bass and treble on mics again I hate the tone on my Rane 70 the mics do not sound as good as my TTM57 I felt bad having to retire that the summer 07/20 also but damn that 70 is a beast!. I went with the 12's because I also bought from ZZOUNDS love the payment plan and the Rane One is not instock but I felt Rane is holding back on features some complaints you mentioned and I just feel like buy July there will be a new Rane controlla out with the features that every is wanting they have to to keep with Pioneer DJ. So for now I will have my fun with the Rane 12's and maybe I will buy one later ONE MKII lol. PS I just bought the Neural Pro and best $50 I spent in a long time if you don't want to buy Virt DJ you may want to do a review on that love the price and ease to use on the fly. but thants again for what you do I been waiting for your review on this.

I saw your video, I like the information you provided, could you provide me with what capacity do I need on my computer to support the serato program with this controller? I would appreciate it in advance. I await your answer and good mixes.

Good information..

@CT are there supposed to be any other drops coming? I'm just trying to see who has the Rane One "In Stock".

Question, at the 10:45 mark, I noticed when you demonstrated the pitch bend of slowing it down or speeding up, the pitch gets affected and does not keep the pitch locked as it normally does. It seems to lock after you finish slowing or speeding up. This does not happen on turntables using Serato, of course. I don't recall the 12 doing this either. This seems to happen regardless if motors are on or off. Also, if you move the pitch slider quickly, you will also hear the pitch move, even though Pitch N Time is keeping the tempo. Have you noticed the very obvious pitch bend adjustment and it not keeping the pitch locked as it should, and only affecting tempo, even when "bending" slowly or fastly?

You do not need a dedicated “silent cue” for the Rane one. It stops and starts on a dime. It does not spin up like a turntable. Just pressing start on high torque acts as silent cue would or you can press your cues pad and then reach over and hit start. It responds just like a dedicated silent cue.

Thank you for the indepth review - nice to know that the Rane One will mostly likely fit in my DDJ-1000 Flight case. 👍

Great review. The Rane One is in a class by itself ; if you're still using a laptop. I have been using Denon decks; because of the moving platter. I've gotten use to not having a computer. It's a freedom indescribable. Lol. Also the Prime 4 is excellent. True standalone is lovely.

Love this controller my first rane product I use 1200s and pioneer mixer plus used a ns7 2 until it stopped working few weeks ago , having so much fun with it I can deal with onboard effects as I used the ns7 for years only one bad point for me the lay out of the load buttons but will get use to it in a few weeks

Your Deck on the your left hand side has the pitch control and Up fader which looks in close proximity .Whats your take on that seeing you have the product with you .

This controller is on my gotta have list. Love it.

Silent cue isn’t necessary on the rane one because it starts immediately with no drag unlike standard turntables.

Have you tested if the knob for the effects controls the wet/dry in single mode as well? I'm definitely a user of the echo fx in many different instances so i need an echo with a low cut/hpf on it and it seems the only way to get that in SDJ Pro is to go into single mode with the echo and adjust the hpf just like i would on any mixer that has built in efx.....if the knob on the One also controls the wet/dry knob in the software even when you go into single mode then that would be perfect for me!!! That or Serato needs to add like a new low cut echo to their list of effects tbh

Hi Terry I love my music and I do my djing in doors but I need a proper controller because mine is very old numark n4. Can you recommend a controller that one day I can go beyond house/bedroom djing. Thanks

Thanks for this.

Great review, are the legs detachable?

What is the weight difference to the ns series controllers

Weighty. Ha ha Mr Cleveland Terry. You have been Killing the Guest Dj Interviews. I would like to see you do an international artist DJ YUTO.(goldies runner up) vs Medina.His transitions are dope.Do some research sir & let me know what you think.

I finally got one! Cant say that it feels as responsive as vinyl for scratching (for me) but I think thats because Im rusty and also need to get used to the fact that they are only 7's but what a cool piece of machinery. Im looking forward to getting used to it and getting my battle-scratch game on :) Great honest review - I subscribed :)

Terry is always on point

You are the truth when it comes to reviews..... You keep simple and understandable for use Neighborhood City DJ's that are community famous! Every product I have brought has been after I listen to your reviews and they have been correct every time. The times I did not listen to your reviews the product I got was crap. So now I am torn between getting this and my Mixtraxx3 PRO FX... That I am in love with but I think this is what I want cause I do use my NS7 for the studio only cause it is HEAVY ASS HELL... Flash back to the Coffin on wheels days when you had to have a roadie to help you with good sounding equipment. I am really leaning to make this purchase. Thanks again for your Knowledge.... DETROIT representing @DJBIGKAHUNADJ @DDHTRADIO

Appreciate the review and giving us honest feedback about what you like and don't like. I was probably getting one anyway unless people would have shown that it sucks. I went from an NS7 I to the V7s because the NS7 | plus case was about70 pounds. And just because you can carry something doesn't mean you should :-p The V7s were a lot more manageable. Then I saw your review on the RANE Twelve and felt like it was a worthy "upgrade" to my V7s as I really don't need a whole lot of bells and whistles. Then you come out with a video saying not to spend any money and then the RANE One drops (Gee, thanks Cleveland :-| -- fortunately I was able to return the RANE Twelve and order the RANE One so all is forgiven). A lot of people have been waiting for something like this--basically a more carry-friendly NS7 with a nicer crossfader and platters, excellent sound quality, professional-grade connections, etc. I think RANE got it just right with giving basically a more portable RANE Twelve and 70 like setup--all for the price of one RANE 70 (so I'm not understanding why people are complaining about the price--a Traktor S4 costs $999 if you want a cheaper all-in-one motorized platter option). Thanks again Cleveland for keep it informative and keeping it honest.

My first controller, have had for a year and im satisfied.

Are the effects also working when you use a CD Player on the line in?

Great review dj I'm going to go but the rane one

Hey Cleveland for the sake of clarification, is the outside of your unit actually metal?

What's up? , Please tell me how to use the twelve and two markers on the Rane one with serato dj pro

Hi Terry, great video! How is the cut in/out distance of the crossfader please ?

love your reviews bro-this pandemic has def been working for u

Patiently waiting for the 10" spinning platter version by Pioneer 😎😎

What are the Serato DJ controllers with built in FX in the hardware?

Thanks for breaking it down. Peace!!!

Does it have a reverse feature to play the music backwards?

Thanks bro

Good afternoon enjoyed the review, wanted to know about the sound card. Would you say it the best.

I know you recommended not to update to the new M1 Macbook pro. However, I have a late 2011 Macbook pro and it doesn't work at all with the Rane One DJ Controller. In general this old Macbook has a lot of issues. Therefore, I have no other option than upgrading. Do you or anyone else have any advice how to use the Rane One with the M1 Macbook pro? Many thanks in advance.

top one ,, just over a year ago , I picked up a ns7 one , previous owner had to give it up because of an mac os update (mac os updates best time to look out for preowned gear ) lol .. this has addressed the gripe that the ns7 is too heavy . i am happy practising , on the 7 for now , and will differently consider side grading to this controller after covid , I see quite a few grumbles about the price , to many people expect champagne for lemonade money . anyhow , what are people doing with the money that the current situation is preventing from spending , time to turn these day's from negative to positive lol .

A lot of controllers can be annoying to use with turntables due to the level differences such as you pointed out here. A work around is setting the auto gain in Serato DJ to 89 DB since levels on digital audio files tend to be hot (Will vary user to user), If you're using a high output cartridge like the Shure M44-7 the levels will be closer and you won't feel like your records sound weak in comparison.

Hey bro... any idea if those vinyls/ acrylics with ez-clamp would work on the NS7iii ?? The platters look identical..

I think the reason why the sound you hear when the platter spins is because of the fan at the back side is active....the numark ns7lll does the same thing when you turn on either side of the motor the fan at the rear side will kick on and when you turn off the motor the fan will turn off but I could be wrong about the rane one but I know the ns7lll does this type of thing.

Is there a way you can add for example a CDJ to use as a third Deck? Obviously you only have controls on the One for decks 1 & 2 but could you map the CDJ to act as a 3rd Deck 'Layer' like some of the entry controllers SB3 or Roland 202 that only have 2 channels but decks 3 and 4 using layers???

When I press echo out automatically it turns on one of the fx in the second Chanel. Do you know how to stop that ? Thanks

Good review and what the DJ world needs to realize is that Numark bought Rane years ago, so of course they are gonna make a version from the ns7 series. The ns62 was a minature version of the ns73, minus the spinning platters and this is no different, just a smaller version of the Rane 12. If you are a talented DJ, stick to what you know and good at and focus on practice, getting gigs, especially right now with what's going on in our genre, due to the pandemic. Best bet, wait for what's next and see where this tech in djing is headed. Stay safe and keep up the good reviews.

Looks like the SZ2 is still the king of Serato controllers. Thanks for the honest review.
