In a world that is “Prime” for integration and consolidation, we now have the Rane One Serato Controller which opens the door to the Rane brand at an “All in one” price point never before available. Check out our Rane One DJ controller review below.
First Look
ONE LOVE with the new RANE ONE All-in-One Serato DJ Controller, a new performance controller that is next-generation ready. The new Rane One All-in-One Serato DJ controller opens the world of Rane DJ to a broader audience with its space and cost-saving design. All without compromising the build quality and feature set that you’ve come to expect from Rane.
The Rane DJ ONE controller takes everything you know and love about the Rane Twelves and Rane Seventy mixer and consolidates those features into “ONE”, a single piece of gear with a smaller overall footprint. This consolidation is what allows the feature list to be so long, while at a price point under $1500. Now, of course, this smaller footprint will be different from using the Rane Twelves (Which have a standard turntable-sized platter), and the Seventy mixer separately. We’ll be interested to touch and feel it when it comes in the next few weeks.
Without having seen it in person yet, we can’t give a true opinion. But we like what we see so far in the features and the specs. To be honest, we can’t remember the last Rane product that wasn’t a game-changer. Can you? From what we’re told this is very similar to using 2 smaller Twelves and a slimmed-down Seventy mixer. Feature-wise, this makes sense. For now, we have a few surface-level features and specs. These include the Magvel contactless fader, dual USB inputs, and seamless Serato integration.
