  FP User Reviews's review

  Characteristics

  Features are great! FX send/recieve, has dry/wet control for FX right on the mixer. Complete EQ cut. AUX in/out. 2 Master outs. Curve and reverse for all faders. XLR outputs would be nice to have, and maybe some OS2 switches like the Stantons for better use of the phono/line switches. Stanton mixers do not come close to this mixer though, lets get that straight!
  
  
  
  $725

  Utilization

  This mixer is extremely easy to use. The setup is similar to a battle mixer but dont let that fool you, this mixer is for all types of music. The manual has a lot of extra stuff like how to get the most out of your mixer. What kind of cables to use and things like that. These Rane guys are hardcore!
  
  
  
  This thing is built like a tank! You wont be breaking this mixer any time soon. Magnetic faders assure extremely long life without wear or bleed. Very High Quality mixer.

  Sounds

  The Signal to Noise ratio on this thing is outstanding. Sound quality is just great. Really clean. This mixer can be used for any application. Studio, bedroom, club, just about anything, and for any type of music. Its excellent for mixing and scratching. The best of both worlds!!!!!

  Overall Opinion

  I love this thing. Its Great. You could not get me to switch mixers!

  Characteristics

  Table Rack 10 "
  
  2 channels 2 phono / line
  
  To 1 in / 1 out with the control knobs
  
  A departure / return an effect
  
  RCA connectors on the whole table
  
  2 x 6.35 mm jack master output of the XLR would not have the luxury!
  
  1 entry mlicro

  Utilization

  Handling very intuitive, everything is very clear and obvious there are many parameters to edit the race faders and crossfaders
  
  A big effort has been made on the headphone that section is simply the best I've tested: the selection of the track to listen is via a mini fader to the right and left cheek tracks 1 & 2 to middle of the two sources are mixed where the assurance of optimal gain control output!
  
  The VU meter provides a real plus to the game as it allows the signal to juggle separate tracks at the entrance table and the mixed signal to the output table!
  
  Manuel could not be more clear embellished with numerous sketches in English and not really necessary if we already know to use a mixer
  
  Faders very nice and sturdy!

  Sounds

  Console completely transparent! pre amps high quality!
  
  No breath
  
  The equalizer is perfect! the 3-band amount to 6db and completely cut the frequency to a minimum
  
  I read that some were disappointed that the frequencies do not rise to 6db, they probably do not know that engineers are paid to the master and therefore the regulations would be playing the signal to 0!

  Overall Opinion

  it's been over 3 years I own this table and I have no regrets, it is robust and quality headphone section is a real treat!
  
  an annual cleaning is recommended, after 3 ½ years I had noise on the gain knobs I put a little WD40 and left it as 40!
  
  sliding faders and it's wonderful to think like the cleaning from time to time
  
  I tried a lot of other tables (Freevox club Dj, Cx Vestax, Vestax PMC 55, Rodec, Allen & Heath ...) it has nothing to envy from the number of tracks!
  
  This table is a reference in the field I play as well as techno and hip hop speedcore, the brekcore of drum'n'bass, classical music, rock ...
  
  it is "pass"!
  
  Excellent quality / price ratio!
  
  Smoothly and with eyes closed I do it again this election!

  Characteristics

  This table is rack
  
  is a two-way tables
  
  ... Battle mixer core for now ...

  Utilization

  It is very intuitive and even without reading the world of employment is one hour became familiar with the beast and with its small sympatoche options ...
  
  So all functions are clear and accessible, the worst is the manual (in English)

  Sounds

  The console is (I think) transparent, it does not introduce a breath of equalizer that cut the sound completely

  Overall Opinion

  I received this morning, and for now it is a Turer
  
  thanks to the CROSS! sublime, a ouevres of art!
  
  before I had a gemini UMX 09 that is nothing to do
  
  brief ...
  
  I bought it used it had already three months and I bought 600 euros, so it's expensive but the market from the table is in high-end prices
  
  I do not have enough experience, but right now, yes yes yes and yes I would do this choice

  boogiedj's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  I managed to connect an auxiliary synth on the track.
  
  It can also plug into the microphone, except that I have an echo effect. I do not know how to cut.
  
  So it's been a 3-4 vote instead of two.
  
  I do not like the transformer that looks like a phone jack will not pull the cable too. To change and probably will have to order the United States.

  Utilization

  - The upfaders are too close to the crossfader. We tend to rush right in the scratch. And it's the drama if the track was deliberately cut.
  
  -The equalizer cuts well but they are notched. So that for those who are used to cut quickly they will end up with a detent which will stop the race.
  
  - The curves are well studied, but the use if you want to change quickly is a bit complicated.

  Sounds

  The power of sound is not strong enough but otherwise the sound is perfect.

  Overall Opinion

  - How long have you use it?
  
  1 day
  
  - What is so special that you like most and least?
  
  Crossfader wear out, 3 band equalizer, adjustable curve
  
  - Have you tried many other models before buying it?
  
  05 pmc, pmc 07, VMC 300
  
  - How would you rate the quality / price?
  
  Expensive but the quality is to go.
  
  - With experience, you do again this choice? ...
  
  Yes without hesitation.
  
  
  
  I recommend to all hiphop DJ. You can store your vestax dominates the Rane.
  
  
  
  I wanted to buy colored facades, but I found no stores that sell french.

  Characteristics

  Is Rack?
  
  -YES
  
  
  
  How many lanes, bus attendant, of dparts, returns ...)?
  
  -2 Channels (as usual '2 RCA phono + 2 lines)
  
  -1 + 1 output effect between Jack (6.5)
  
  Between -1 + 1 auxilary output (RCA)
  
  -2 Master outputs (1rca + 1 jack 6.5)
  
  -1 MIC Input (6.5)
  
  
  
  Too bad there is no XLR (But hey ca would be luxury) ;-)
  
  
  
  FADERS AND MAGNETIC CROSSFADER !!!!!! 10/10
  
  
  
  I like that that is the adjustment of the panoramic mode thanks to two faders (changemenent balance thanks to the faders) to effect a Kid Koala's style .....
  
  
  
  but for more info or go to the website of rane .....

  Utilization

  RAS
  
  
  
  SAME AS FOR OTHER MIXERS

  Sounds

  THEN THIS IS HUGE .....
  
  
  
  I went from a vestax rane has pmc05 III, I had the impression he had made a compressseur INSIDE .... LOL .... the sound took on a different scale .... The sound was much fuller and hot ....
  
  Personally I find that Eq are terribly powerful ...
  
  
  
  so rane have known Abors t equalizer thanks to their powerful ......

  Overall Opinion

  - How long have you use it?
  
  
  
  I use it for about 8 months and so far I have found no problem ....
  
  
  
  - Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
  
  
  
  yes I have in my pocession:
  
  
  
  1 vestax pmc05 III with which I started and I was disappointed because of the short life of the crossfader
  
  
  
  Sh1200 a technics that m 'is much more but the cross were not specific enough (eg for Crabbe) and over the curve is not adjustable ....
  
  
  
  I had the opportunity to try
  
  
  
  Vestax pmc 1 o8 of very good features but the General cross hardens quickly
  
  1 box of scratch in Rodec then it's a beautiful beast but I have not had enough time to fully exploit
  
  Ecler HAK 360 and 1 the same is a very good mixer as the cross is the most flexible, but I try (it's only 1 personal opinion) I find it just too soft c, a, d too lightweight ....
  
  
  
  But my preference is still largely for the Rane ....
  
  cross adapts well to our hands ..... he just need the flexibility ...
  
  the fader are extra (convertible crossfader)
  
  it delivers a sound egg .....
  
  
  
  How do you report qualitprix?
  
  
  
  CHERO but a little well worth the ca .....!!!!!!
  
  Exprience with, you will do again this choice? ...
  
  
  
  it is clear without hesitation ....... In any case, if not, it would be to buy a Rane TTM 57SL or an empath .........
  
  
  
  overall rating 19/20

  Overall Opinion

  I bought it to replace a 320 Hak on which I used a little too I got the crossfaders (2 per year), we must say that I scratch hard enough to fawn. I used to mix both (all styles). APRS a year of hard service I have not yet changed the cross (is possible, anyway?). I do not regret my purchase of it. But even when a small BMOL hack because I had to get a rev cut short distance of each cross the cot. (Laying Butes home)
  
  I cross rgulirement disassemble for cleaning as the guide takes the wear and dusts, as long it becomes less flexible.
  
  
  
  This is the major criticism, lack of consistency in the flexibility of the cross.

  Opooly's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  The Rane TTM56 is a 2-channel mixer 9 "3 magntiques faders, each channel is fitted with phono / line, a 3-band qualiseur dbraillable, an FX, and r tings of curves.
  
  
  
  On each fader can be rgler velocity curve with a fader "Contour", the faster the "Cut in time" is the same as that of the crossfader, ideal for scratching two on the same mixer.
  
  The faders can also be a possdent inverss and "Mode 2" to say the least original, because in this position the fader will control over the volume, but the pan: no sound in the center, above the his left, and down his right.
  
  Cf: Here (http://www.rane.com/faderesp.gif).
  
  
  
  The crossfader possde also an inverter and two "Contour", one for each channel, we can have a rglage "dry" for a cot and a progressive on the other (eg), the " Mode 2 "as it allows to have one and only one plate each of the Crossfader cot and no sound in the middle.
  
  Cf: Here (http://www.rane.com/crosresp.gif).
  
  
  
  The channels are reversed, but unlike a Vestax 07Pro (eg), only the faders are inverss, it will therefore reverse the crossfader to have the same connections, the power trim / Eq / Fx is not reversed more it remains the same regardless of the rglage.
  
  
  
  The effects loop is composed of a dpart Stereo and a return, the amount effect in the mix is ​​a gre Fader "Dry / Wet" when one takes only the "Wet" signal "Dry" is shot and the effects can be in Send (ex: Reverb, Delay) or Insert (Comp, Disto).
  
  Nb: The effect is dpart POST Trim / EQ / Fader / Crossfader.
  
  
  
  In the more traditional functions, there is a microphone input jack with Insert (for Gate / Comp for example), a monitor output / Headphone switchable Cue / Master, two master outputs (RCA jacks and symtriques), and INTERESTED thing of VU meters with switchable PFL / Master.
  
  Nb: The prampli headphone is one of the most powerful, Sennheiser HD270 on over 4 volume is unbearable ;-).
  
  
  
  The "Scratch Sessions" are allowed since the TTM56 has an AUX IN and Out In Out Cable for the amp and the table of collgue.
  
  
  
  At the physical level, the knobs (Trim, EQ, Master, etc.) and the faders (Pan, Dry / Wet, Cue) seem trssrieux / solid, it's the same for UpFaders and the crossfader.
  
  
  
  The "Faceplate" is a Contents which is reminiscent of "cot plastic" and "Butter Rugs" (fawn tflon), so it does not get dirty like a Technics SHxx-1200 (eg) and do not mock a Vestax (eg), since the srigraphie is in plastic, use it always remains like new.

  Utilization

  Despite its advanced functions, the rest TTM56 a mixer like the others, then you plug and play. ;-)
  
  
  
  This mixer has Turntablism t Designed for the "Channel Reverse" (eg) had to be pens for the Euro Scratch (among others) since only the faders are inverss, the consideration is that it is impossible to make "the low Plus One" since the EQ not reversed, the EQ Switch On / Off can be used to level ...
  
  
  
  Obviously something else "impossible" on the mixer: the EQ Drumming, as it ncessite of EQ fader (eg 07Pro Vestax, Stanton SA-5/12), and here are the EQ knobs.
  
  
  
  Everything else is absolute happiness, pass the time to adapt to (Cross) faders, indeed faders magntique trs are individuals:
  
  
  
  _ They are lgrement shorter (40mm instead of 45mm)
  
  _ They are flexible but trs trs without any bounce or touch heavy
  
  _ They are "adjustable" in hardness via a spring fix on each "slide" of faders,
  
  _ They make no noise contacts against the plate, it can be Gnant for those with the "Clicks" with the sound mtallique (See Vestax / Numark / Stanton for example), but in the end it trs enjoyable.
  
  
  
  For Scratch and Beat Juggling the crossfader is a rgal, for me the best, as the publicity says: "The crossfader knows exactly what your hand is," and it's true ;-)
  
  
  
  The "Mode 2" of UpFaders can scratch effects by panning at the same time, provided s'avoir scratch with a finger (Tony Vegas Style). ;-)
  
  
  
  The effects loop is very practical to indulge in the Scratch Music "Live" with a Boss RC-20, Ambiloop, Live, Sonar, etc. or for any type of expression: a Vocoder Beat with a "never ending" scratches with delay (fun), scratches with reverb (fun too), scratches with fast tremolo to "simulate a Vestax 07Pro D" ;-), etc..
  
  
  
  NB: not hiring FX and by the "Wet" Basically, we can fully use FX return as a 4th channel (Lines 2 + 1 + 1 To return Fx) in case o. ..

  Sounds

  The sound of this mixer is transparent, without a breath or distortion, and the quality of phono pramplis is excellent.
  
  
  
  The EQ trs are effective because they can cut their compltement range frequency drives, and with at least 3 EQ, there is no sound, this is closer to the EQ switch on / off to imagine the kind of fantasies that can be done with.

  Overall Opinion

  I did not blame this table is what I've seen better up Submitted the cart price is quickly forgotten seen the strength and quality of all .
  
  
  
  I test some prt everything is done in "Battle Mixers," and it seems to be the very best, some even prtendent Scratch that one better with, and I am quite agree.
  
  
  
  Conclusion: Try the and you may be like me, the "Thunderbolt".

  Characteristics

  Well all I can tell you that the Rane is that this table is just great and you understand why so many DJs (DJ Shadow, Z-Trip, Kid Koala and so on) is used.
  
  The huge cross .... the best in the world right now (going to see the demo on their site or they crossfader in the Coca-Cola !!!), the quality of its excellent short ..... I am super happy!
  
  As for the Pioneer I do not know these new models, they must be good too but I think that expensive for what c c. ..... I would say anything because I do not know!
  
  In any case the Rane in France is around 1300 euros, I got it in the States is 690 euros including shipping and customs charges ... + 10 euros for a lil tranfo 220 -> 110V and delivered home via UPS in 3 days .... the site: www.agiprodj.com, everything is done by mail and fax and seller, Jason is super friendly and super efficient.
  
  Voila, good buy and a good mix!

  Utilization

  Top notch ... a little confusing at first, then just great!

  Sounds

  The sound is nickel ..... no breath, the stuff really PRO!

  Overall Opinion

  Nothing else to say .... BUY LA! You will not be disappointed ... quality / price unbeatable by the commander in the States .... if the choice was a remake I would do the same!
