Rane 62 and Scratch Live 2.4

DJ Tapout 6:36 PM - 10 February, 2012
Can some from rane or serato give us a exact release date for the mixers and the new 2.4?
pdidy 7:43 PM - 10 February, 2012
The short answer......no
DJ Tapout 11:15 PM - 10 February, 2012
Don't hurt to try LOL
pdidy 1:48 AM - 11 February, 2012
True no harm in trying...lol
Serato no longer gives "exact release dates" because if its delayed for any reason our forum members have proven without a shadow of a doubt, they will act a complete fu@king FOOL........True story.

The new rule we have now adopted is to never ever evaaaaaa ! rush serato,
(2.0 proved that).

pdidy 7:27 AM - 11 February, 2012

DJ Tapout 10:46 PM - 15 February, 2012

Rane, Support
Zach S 10:56 PM - 15 February, 2012
Not yet. I'm not sure when they will be getting shipped but it should be really soon!

DJ Tapout 8:08 PM - 21 February, 2012
Still waiting on the 62 Z to ship :(
DJ'Que 8:36 PM - 21 February, 2012
Got my 62 yesterday playing with it today. I played with it already for 4 days straight at Namm. but I have to say Rane & Serato Did the Dam Thing. Now just need video to comeout.
DJ Tino C 6:09 PM - 22 February, 2012
I just Called Guitar Center. No word yet. How are you guys getting yours?
damehype 12:01 AM - 23 February, 2012
^ By not messing around with GC
DJ Tino C 12:06 AM - 23 February, 2012
Ok, but what kind of warranty does those other guys give? I usually buy a 3 year accidental damage warranty for some asshole maybe spilling a drink on my gear.

sam ash and gc are slow as hell. but the other like agi has 2 & 4 year accidental plans.
DJ Tino C 2:49 AM - 23 February, 2012
Good to know. Thats a huge dealbreaker for me personally. Especially going to gigs with drunk idiots.

:) we will see lol
thanks zach
AVENUE 11:56 PM - 23 February, 2012
Tapout did you pre order one because it is a limited mixer?
DJ Tapout 12:52 AM - 24 February, 2012
no because i like the look and the cable that come with it... :)
JJDJ 6:58 AM - 24 February, 2012
Looks like 2.4 is available for download....

ancientyouth 1:05 PM - 24 February, 2012
I was checkin and those cables would cost like $450???? Is that right?

Probably closer to $350 street.

They're sweet cables. I've seen them in a few touring dj set-ups lately.

I think if you don't mind the color scheme, the 62z is the better bargain if you were going to get the cables anyway.

true the cables are great but the look of the mixer is even better
DJ Tino C 3:59 PM - 24 February, 2012
If the cables are that much street value, the Z is a better deal, but if you dont like the design, I'm sure 12 inch skinz will come out with something soon.

Could've sworn that's what I was saying. :) LOL
DJ Tino C 4:51 PM - 24 February, 2012
I thought you meant if you dont mind it. Some people may not like the design or another DJ's name on their mixer, but may still want the cables.
The Version Suicides 4:58 PM - 24 February, 2012
Regardless its a better deal, even if you pay 60 - 70 bucks for 12inchskinz, you end up ahead.

At least with the quotes I've heard over the past week.

I'm pretty sure we're saying the same thing and don't know it. LOL
DJ Tino C 6:26 PM - 24 February, 2012
I think we are! Its all good.
YZ 8:26 PM - 24 February, 2012
Personally, I'd never put some other dudes name on my gear nor would I buy a damn usb cable for anything over $20 bucks, and that's even pushing it.

mcdonalds vs falet menion.......the choice is yours.
DJ Tino C 2:34 PM - 25 February, 2012
I'm with you guys on the that. Now if Rane offered and upgrade option to have YOUR DJ name on the mixer etched on, now we're talking! That would be bad ass. I also would pay for than $20-30 for cables. Can anybody say AMAZON.COM?????
DJ Tino C 2:35 PM - 25 February, 2012
I meant to say would not pay more than $20-30 for cables.
DJ'Que 5:14 PM - 25 February, 2012
You can have 12inch skins make you the graphics but the knobs (no homo) are the problem. The cables are easy.

It was a guy at namm selling the same one. Dont know if thats where there's came from.

He had all colors.
You-Lee 5:38 PM - 25 February, 2012
1. The Z-Trip mixer is an additional $100 
2. There are alot of people like myself who will buy the Z-Trip mixer simply because its a limited edition an will likely have higher resale value in the future.
3. The same was said about the 57 limited edition which some people still currently own. Anyone who has a 57 limited edition now may  have buyers willing to pay more forthan a regular 57. Which some people already do.
4. You don't want to have another djs name then don't buy the ZTrip mixer simple. 
5. Get a or make skin simple
6. Don't want to pay this or that then don't simple.
7. If someone doesn't like something about the mixer then just don't buy it. Same as food. You don't like it don't eat it.  Unless you still live with  your parents and they force you to eat your veggies. Which sounds like a lot of fools here do.
8. To each his or her own.
9. Rane is not putting anyone in a submission hold to buy their mixers.
10. You want to be a designer. Then go use your Krylon, glitter, neon lights. And maybe some popups. Whatever you want until your hearts content.
12. Why are other people worried about other peoples $?
13. Stop trying to use a Jedi mind tricks on everyone else.
You-Lee 6:09 PM - 25 February, 2012
14. It's not like if your dj name is dj joe shmoe, when you buy the Z-Trip mixer now your dj drop will say " you're now listening to dj Z-Trip. Really?

my reply was to Dj Tino C.

I was saying have 12inch make a custom skin for it.

Just a Misunderstanding.

Called the place i pre-ordered from today and told me it would be March 30th before they can ship my 62Z WTF Rane come on guys.........

Should i just cancel and stick with my 57's ???
You-Lee 9:13 PM - 27 February, 2012
Maybe that's a good thing. Hopefully they fix the mapping issue or any other issues before they release the 62z.

Very True...
You-Lee 9:35 PM - 27 February, 2012
Makes no sense why the 62 can't be mapped out as you feel fit. I own a 68. 68 owners have 4 other layers to map out if we want to. THE 62 SHOULD AND MUST HAVE THIS OPTION. COME ON MAN!!!

Hopefully Serato will be able to get this ironed out in their software soon.
You-Lee 11:15 PM - 27 February, 2012
Hopefully. It's not fair to talk about how good the 62 is when you can't do whatever you can with the 68.
DjMistaCeee 7:12 AM - 28 February, 2012
Does serato 2.4 have ableton features? I have the 62 and I can't figure out how to open the able ton view
Dazel 7:32 AM - 28 February, 2012
open ssl than open ableton,works for me
DjMistaCeee 7:44 AM - 28 February, 2012
Ssl? How do I do that? Shouldn't it be on the screen on the left in a drop down menu? Thanks for response!
Dazel 8:46 AM - 28 February, 2012
ssl (serato scratch live)

Just open Serato 2.4 then open ableton live, after that its gonna pop in the drop down menu
Dazel 8:49 AM - 28 February, 2012
in other words, just run both program at the same time
ancientyouth 3:28 PM - 28 February, 2012
How bout mixtape status for the 62? I see in the release notes for the 2.4.1 beta , sl1-4,57, 68 the mixtape feature will work...... Can we expect the 62 to work later on?
You-Lee 3:46 PM - 28 February, 2012
Wtf? Why is that not in there working already? This makes no beepin sense. RANE COME ON MAN!!!

Not Rane's fault. This is a Serato issue. Rane makes the hardware and Serato makes the software.

My bad I meant to write Serato. Thank you. SERATO COME ON MAN!!!
