The new RANE SEVENTY-TWO Serato DJ mixer is my new favorite two-channel scratch mixer of all time. Yes, all time.

The SEVENTY-TWO has superb build quality, a slick touch-screen, excellent MAG-THREE faders and lots of effects and pad functions to keep DJ’s satisfied for a long time to come.

The RANE SEVENTY-TWO has almost every Serato DJ performance pad function right at the DJ’s fingertips and easily accessible. The touch-screen shows all of the necessary information regarding the mixer and Serato so that DJ’s don’t need to stare at a laptop screen all night during a performance.
