- 29 internal effects
- released in white, not black
- STEMS functionality (STEMS pad mode, instant ACAP and Instrumental button ect.)
- 2 new pad modes, STEM Roll and STEM effects
- Touch strip replaced by more buttons
- New precision feel up-faders like on the performer
- Dedicated sampler knob on the front
- STEM EQ
- Latest and greatest converters inside
- Outputs did not change
- Same technology with the jogs
- Same footprint so fits in current DJ furniture, same exact weight
- Microphone effects in the menu, no physical control but accessed through the menu
- No MSRP set in stone but trying to hit the price point of the MK! around 1299, maybe a little more. Summer release (they are very very close)

This MK2 version has addressed all of my concerns about the original Rane One. Its an instant buy for me!

yeah, seems like they really listened to the customers and made the necessary updates. I will be getting it for sure.

lets hope the price wont be like the Phaze 2 pricing?

I'm glad they extended the platform, parts will be available for awhile, etc.

I'll be happy to see both out in the wild.

Keeping my Rane One original and going from there.

Jason(inMusic rep/Rane) said the price will be "around the same as the original Rane One ($1300 - $1500)". If so, thats a great deal!

SHOUT OUT to Mojaxx for addressing the 'elephant in the room'- the status of the business relationship between Serato & Rane(inMusic) since the collapse of the aquisition.

Many new products across all inMusic Brands are in the works... "opening the flood gates"- according to Jason (inMusic/ Rane rep).

This was great news when they mentioned it.

Performer and Four have basically perfected the controller. I don't see anywhere left to go after those two. Hopefully Rane One refresh is their last project before a standalone 4ch Stems mixer.

The day Apple finally merge OS somehow (even with “freezer mode apps” almost) Serato should came to iPads and Denon release their full Engine Dj app (rumour with some screenshots months ago)
Standalones are already happening (from Prime Go to Mixstream go+) so a mixer or just a box with usb and screen should be possible if countbeans decide is worth for their strategy…

Standalone's can't do stems. Denon just had problems with Engine DJ which required offboard processing.

For me I'm good with the Rane One, it's small and light enough for lots of mobile use and if my laptop gets too old. I replace it.

Embedded controllers are going to become a money sink. The minute the processing power is not adequate anymore, new controller.

The Performer is dope but it's too heavy and big for heavy mobile use.

The One and all the other controllers are completely different products.

The One fills the market for that portable moving platter controller well and this update is great that I have given it a second look if I had to get a controller replacement. My argument was that I already had tables and like having another platform with CDJ styled jog wheels, but thios is encouraging. The Performer and Rev-7 with the jog displays just raised my anxiety as as another failure point as well but that's a personal thing.

Hardware standalones will be later to the party for ever but they offer stability (or should).

Maybe new Jetson nanos came in congatec-SBC like form and hardware vendors get a standard to implement them (like AI Bus)

Maybe it will take another 15 years too. XD

Why is djing so stagnated? It seems more and more as time goes…

Where are these Engine DJ screenshots?

It looks a complete mess, and completely against their change in design language. To put simply it looks about as fake as fake can be.


Does this mean InMusic don’t have some prototype performance software in their lab that they play around with, absolutely not, in fact it would be a surprise if they didn’t.

Does any of that make this any more real, no.

This MK2 version brings a lot a useful features but there are still 2 remaining issues IMO:

- Horrible browse knob placement (memory muscle with others gears is too strong to get used to this unusual top left placement).

- Big Ass Front knobs (mic eq/vol, sampler volume...etc). They take too much space, they can easily break and they can be turned accidentally during performance. Why Rane does use the same compact front knobs as in the Performer ??

I would have prefer a compact 2ch version of the Performer instead of an upgraded version the One.

In fact, the king of motorised controller is still the Rev7.
They hardware, the layout, the features .... everything was designed by some people who really have every dj details in mind.

Platters still not symmetrical…why🥲

I hope they used magnetic line faders this time and not those NS7 faders which are soldered to the mainboard

in the Mojaxx video they said the faders were improved and are all tension adjustable

The faders are supposedly the same channel faders used in the Performer. Definitely an improvement over the original Rane One but they are not easy user replaceable line faders. I believe they are still soldered on to the main board &/or require taking apart the controller in order to replace the channel faders.

I do wish the the mics & dedicated sampler volume knob where on top of the controller instead of on the front. That's a design sacrifice I can live with, tho. Overall, the MK2 is a really nice upgrade over the original.

Didn't the mention that the plate is made now so that the faders are easily accssible or is that just for the adjustment and not service?

I agree InMusic should have something even could be totally different to that. I was trying to point a "possible scenario" not a "gospel truth".

Standalone will be later to the party but they will keep going since Apple is Apple and Windows is Windows. Brands can't trust them to not breaking things each new release or ditch directly a division (nuc or Win8 for embed)

Obviously since producing seems more profitable than Djing the investment goes to MPC-like first and (maybe) to djing field later. Live producing doesn't seems enough profitable to invest too much (Pioneer Toraiz line as example or the rejection from NI to make work altogether Traktor and Maschine, Serato going Studio/Sampler and slowing the SDJ improvements aside Stems...)

But just my opinion and I usually get very wrong so let's hope some new fun and interesting proposals came for all of them :D

IF they are the same faders that are on the Performer, then the channel(line) faders can only be adjusted but NOT removed via the top plate.

The cross fader IS user replaceable via the top plate.

I have one suggestion before the MK2 goes into mass production…

If its possible, please move the pitch faders up closer to the platters. The Acapella STEM/Instrumental STEM buttons can be placed below the pitch faders. This will allow more room & prevent accidentally hitting the left pitch fader when touching the left channel fader.

Please look at the Hercules T7 as a design reference. @RaneDJ @inMusicBrand
I posted this on the Rane DJ forum too.

Surely you don’t seriously think there will be hardware redesigns this far into the development cycle of a product?

The Rane One MK2 was not initially suppose to be announced at NAMM. I believe It was announced early to gain feedback before mass production begins.

As a previous Rane One owner, I'm just giving constructive feedback based on my personal experience with the controller. Obviously, InMusic Brand (Rane) can decide whether to redesign based on user feedback or leave it as is.

Btw, Rane has corrected/improved on design flaws in the past. They did it with the Rane 12s.

This is expected in Summer.
No hardware redesigns at this point.

Agree, by they can change little things like:
- all front knobs size (small like in the Rane Performer)
- pitch slider color (put them grey as for the Rane performer in order to mismatch the fader black caps)
- Bigger platters (same size as the SC6000Ms)

For the platter size, someone has already made the switch test and the results are just on point !

www.reddit.com

So please someone from inMusic/Rane takes into account our feedbacks 🙏🏾

This will noticeably improve the unit for almost nothing 💪🏾

I might try this once the Mk2 is released.

If it fits perfectly, I don't know why they didn't do this from the jump. They would definitely sell more units. <Scratches head>

The only thing wrong with it now is that it's not available in black. LOL


Plus...would have been nice to have the pitch at the top in battle style.

LOL.... agreed

According to this YouTuber, the Rane One is still in development. What was unveiled at NAMM is a prototype. Rane is looking to add reverb & delay on the mics & have a physical button to turn those effects on.

Hopefully, Rane will take a second look at the overall layout & improve the placement of the pitch fader(especially the left pitch fader that is too close to the left channel).

youtu.be

Sorry but you’ve completely misquoted what that guy said there. He said they are “looking for a way of incorporating the function into a hardware button”

Please keep things factual.

So doesn't that mean a physical button to turn the effect on? Or does it mean just using the MENU screen to turn the effect on?

To me a "hardware button" means a physical button.

It doesn’t mean anything specific, it could be a new dedicated button or simply utilising an existing button or shift function. The absolute details were not disclosed, so you using it to try and some weight to your argument that they are making hardware changes so are open to your other suggestions doesn’t really hold up, as no specifics have been provided.

Here is the direct link to the larger aluminum platter that is swappable between the Rane One & Denon SC6000M.

Instrumentalparts.com also has a larger 8" version of the Rane One acrylic disk. It's more expensive than the ones sold by 12inchskinz but they have them in stock.

Nice !!! Didn't know it could be sold separately!

**DJGrooveMix 2:10 AM - 25 January, 2025**
🔥 **Rane One MK2 is looking solid!** 🔥

29 internal effects? **STEMS integration**? And they finally added **STEM Roll & STEM effects**? This is gonna be a **big win** for performance DJs. 💯

Kinda surprised they dropped it in **white** instead of black, though. 🤔 Wonder if a black version will follow later. Also, **no major output changes**, but with the **latest converters**, I’m curious to see how the sound stacks up. (it-kiso.com)

No touch strip is an interesting move—hopefully, the extra buttons improve workflow instead. And that **dedicated sampler knob** on the front? **Nice touch.**

If they really hit that ~$1299 price point, this might be a **must-buy** for DJs who wanted the MK1 but held off. Who else is thinking of upgrading? 🚀

I'm getting it, but going to wait a bit because Rane stuff seems to have some issues when it first comes out that they stealth fix on newer production runs.

+1. Back when I had the Rane One, I noticed that the right platter kept dropping down & I had to constantly re-adjust the platter. Has anyone else experienced this? Not sure if it was due to a faulty spring in the quick release adapter or if it was me just being heavy handed.

I'm now looking at a custom adapter from 12inchskinz with a larger 8" custom acrylic disk. I hope this solves the problem of the disk dropping down & will give a larger surface area on the platters due to the smaller spindle adapter & larger 8" disk.

12inchskinz.com

Real good suggestions! I might try switching out some of the knobs & pitch slider on the Rane One MK2 with the knobs on my Performer.

happens on my 6000m as well.

i now use slipsheets + slipmats + standard control disk.

so even at the lowest point, its still slippery.

I was going to change the assembly to the 5000m type (allen key type adapter), im not doing this again because slipsheets work

Appreciate your reply! Think I will wait on the smaller custom spindle for now. I need to first test out the quick release spindle adapters to see if the locking spring mechanism has been improved on the Rane One MK2. I'm also waiting for the larger 8" control disks from 12inchskinz to be in-stock again.
