Next-gen Remixing, Forecasted for Your Setup!

Rane’s dedication to DJing has earned a well-deserved place among the craft’s leading innovators, and the Performer sets the bar for next-generation remixing. The 4-channel DJ controller merges Precision Feel tactility with cutting-edge performance tools, including their advanced suite of stem separation technologies, RGB-backlit performance pads, comprehensive sampling capabilities, and an effects arsenal ported straight from A-Trak’s signature Rane Seventy mixer. Each 7-inch jog wheel is outfitted with vivid Day Mode-capable displays, providing real-time information and feedback as you dial in the details with exacting precision via high-torque faders. Furthermore, the Performer’s I/O array and onboard Serato integration make back-to-back or multimode DJing seamless. Between its adjustable Mag Four crossfader, 4-channel architecture, and customizable interfacing capabilities, Sweetwater’s DJs are in staunch agreement: the Rane Performer is the gateway to boundary-pushing remixes, daring you to explore where conventional mixing ends and next-gen production begins.

Stem separation: unmatched open-format mixing

With the Rane Performer, there is no shortage of creative tools at your disposal, and the mixer’s powerful engine delivers four modes of stem separation, including Stem Split, allowing you to instantly untangle and send vocal and instrumental parts to designated mixer channels for flexible effects enhancement. It only gets more detailed from here, with versatile performance possibilities that enable deeper stem separation, stem locking, a stem-based performance pad mode, and re-mapping a channel’s 3-band EQ to individually adjust, boost, or kill the stems specific to that channel’s track. From on-the-fly remixes and club IDs to bleeding-edge battle-style mixing and boundless mash-up possibilities, the Performer is ground zero for next-gen artistry.

Multidimensional FX and Serato-powered possibilities

Accompanying Rane’s innovations in stem-extraction technology, the Performer was outfitted with a robust suite of 25 onboard effects, as well as a fader mode that draws straight from A-Trak’s signature Rane Seventy mixer, ensuring DJs that these tools have been road-tested for voltaic performances. Its internal engine includes a customizable array of 25 Main FX, with four dedicated Channel FX that see classic Reverb and Echo modes joined by exciting additions, like Scale Down, Riser, and Recycler. What’s more, the Performer’s built-in Serato compatibility means unbridled access to the vanguard DJ software’s armature of texturization tools, immensely expanding your aural arsenal. When using the Fader FX suite, the Precision Feel faders transform into linear controls for ring modulation, pitch, and roll, opening exciting doors for mixing, remixing, and stem manipulation. Plus, because of the Rane Performer's integrative capabilities with Serato, the DJ software's wealth of streaming options is yours to mix. Across Apple Music, Tidal, SoundCloud, Beatport, and Beatsorce, hundreds of millions of tracks and thousands of playlists from your favorite DJs, producers, curators, and creators are available to wield with the full force of the Rane Performer.

Unrivaled precision and hands-on control

Precision Feel volume faders and a Mag Four crossfader utilize dual-rail systems that are fully adjustable, with easily accessed menu options for total customization, including reversals and 0–100% cut-in curve adjustments. Additionally, each 7-inch platter is supported by high-torque motors. All 16 performance pads are RGB-backlit, allowing you to maintain seamless visual tracking of your pad-fueled looping, slicing, sampling, one-shots, stem re-sampling, and more. Finally, the magnetically attached acrylic discs provide a lifelike vinyl feel and comprehensive tension adjustment, guaranteeing your hands-on control is tailored to suit.

Versatile connectivity for back-to-back and beyond

Keeping an eye on the future while firmly rooted in the DJ tradition, the Performer was designed to facilitate multitudes of mixing magic. Its dual USB Type-B ports are your bridge to Serato effects and performance tools, as well as untold configurations of multimode mixing setups, augmented by the pair of combi-jack Mic inputs and RCA stereo input pairs dedicated to the mixer’s third and fourth channels. When it comes to live arrangements, the Performer pulls no punches in its adaptability, easily accommodating back-to-back setups with its dyad of 1/4-inch and 3.5-millimeter TRS headphone jacks. Meanwhile, a toggled Split-Cue mode ensures soloists can mix with comfort and flexibility.

  • High-torque, motorized jog wheels feature magnetically attached acrylic platters, providing lifelike viny-feel interfacing with immense adjustability

What is Certified Open Box Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call "Certified Open Box" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

Certified Open Box (also known as a demo) means we’ve had it out of the box for our YouTube channel, displayed at events, tested in our studio, or maybe it was in a customer’s hands for a few days and isn’t ‘factory fresh’ as a result. Every Certified Open Box item we sell has Sweetwater’s 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty and has been tested and verified up to ‘new’ specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it’s in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Certified Open Box item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Reviews

Simply The Best!!!
I saw a DJ using the Rane1, and he blew me away with its versatility. We talked, and he explained how the four was even better, but it was still jog wheels.
I DO NOT like jog wheels. Then he says the Rane Performer has motorized platters, so I said done, gotta have it!!!
I called "THE MAN", Mr. Anthony Giraldi at Sweetwater, and he did what he always does, and that's to make sure this DJ has the latest and the greatest!
I currently use the Rev7 and I loved it until I got this performer. It blows my mind every time I turn it on. Don't get me wrong, the Rev7 is a fantastic controller, and will blow you away. The Rane Performer is that and so much more. I will keep both controllers and use both too. The Performer has taken stems to a whole new level and included motorized platters to boot. I know I'm only scraping the surface of what this machine can do and can't wait until I can dive in with both hands and put it through its paces. I can only thank Mr. Anthony Giraldi for making it happen. If you need something or want one of these, you're at the right place. Just call my man Anthony Giraldi at Sweetwater and he will take excellent care of you. Cause he's Simply the Best!!!

Rane Performer

The Rane Performer is the best DJ system that comes close to the turntables of the 80s. I've been a DJ since 1985 in a nightclub in Brazil and the Rane Performer takes me back in time, it's like I'm using my old turntables (SL 1900 Technics).
