#Rane sl2 serato dj pro software
The control tones tell the software information about how you’re manipulating the music. So when you’re DJing with such a system, you leave the same “records” on all the time, changing tunes on software. These contain “control tones” (sometimes called “timecode”, but Serato insists its technology is different from what some people call timecode. So also in the box are two slabs of Scratch Live vinyl.

Plug this into your existing decks and mixer, hook up your laptop, install the supplied Serato Scratch Live software, and you’re ready to go. You need a little more than just the audio interface to crack it. What you need, sir, is a digital vinyl system – an example of which is today’s review item, the Rane SL2. How about music discovery? Software effects, loops and cues? Etc etc). But you’d really like to go digital (after all, the advantages of digital aren’t just in the gear. You have no wish to replace them with new gear. So, you have record decks (or CD players, but from now on, we’ll assume it’s record decks).
We want to truly represent digital DJing in all of its flavours.
The clue is in the name after all: digital. We’ve traditionally neglected to cover digital vinyl systems (DVS), which is something we’ve decided to put right. We’ll be covering them in due course…)įinally, before we begin, if you’re wondering about the fact that the Rane SL2 is over a year old and yet we’re reviewing it only now, there’s a reason for that. As for a native Traktor mixer like the Rane Sixty-One? Well, I for one don’t think Native Instruments will leave it too long, and Pioneer already does. (By the way, Traktor’s digital vinyl audio interfaces now comes packaged in exactly the same way as Rane’s always have, ie packaged with control vinyl as a “complete system”, and we’ll be looking at a Traktor’s digital vinyl system in a week or so. But what if you already have decks and a mixer, and just want to move over to digital? That’s where the Rane SL2 comes in.
A couple of weeks ago we reviewed the Rane Sixty-One mixer, a Serato Scratch Live-compatible standalone DJ mixer and audio interface designed to let you DJ using turntables and/or CDJs but manipulating audio via Serato Scratch Live software and your laptop.
