WeвЂ™re pretty sure these effects were migrated straight from the Rane 68. The things that I miss the most are the J1/J2 assignable toggle switches and assignable footswitch control (the key word here is assignable). The main improvement I would have suggested was keeping some of the controls and buttons open/assignable or even having another set of function buttons (see the top section of the VCI-380, but also add SP-6 control).

They feel a bit lighter than knobs in the past, but itвЂ™s worth pointing out that the rubber grips on top of most of the knobs do add a nice new level ofВ tactility to the mixer.В The knobs also have metal nuts holding the stems securely in place вЂ“ another trademark sign of a quality mixer. Hopefully they donвЂ™t yellow with age ( the buttons on the DJTTВ office Rane Sixty-Eight is showing a bit of yellowing after a year of use).ДЄs far as the knobs on the mixer, theyвЂ™re also up to the Rane standard. As mentioned above, the cue buttons are well improved over the Sixty-EightвЂ™s tighter buttons вЂ“ with much better response and playability. This mixer is built to RaneвЂ™s usual high quality and design standards. The EQ section suffers a bit in this regard вЂ“ while the low end EQ knobs have plenty of space around them, the mids, highs, and gains are packed in a fairly small space, not ideal for folks with larger fingers. It only takes a few sessions to get used to it.В The mixing section is well spaced- plenty of room to go wild on the faders and crossfader with no fears of knocking an important control by accident.

The 62 implements larger, more robust buttons that are sure to last longer but the playability leaves some things to be desired. What most people notice first about this mixer is that the buttons are much improved from the 57SL and 68 mixers, but can still have some missed triggers if doing complex cue drumming.Д®ditors Note: The 57 buttons were easier to press but notoriously prone to breakage. The Sixty-Two is a two channel battle mixer with an effects unit, Serato Scratch Live controls, and dual USB ports/soundcards that provide the ability to seamlessly switch between two DJs. Playing with the Rane 62 for about a month, itвЂ™s pretty easy to grasp the new layout and functions of this mixer, especially for a long-time 57SL user like myself. WhatвЂ™s Missing: Intuitive FX controls that are expected at this mixer price point A New Playing Field

We called up our friend Charles at Thud Rumble (Q-BertвЂ™s crew) to see if the new 62 series is destined to become another club standard like the 57. Earlier this year at NAMM, Rane announced they were phasing out their popular TTM 56/57 line and replacing it with the Sixty-One and Sixty-Two mixers.
