      Bro u missed the most important thing ... how does the touch feel on the "vinyl" it looks soo shiny like acrilic .. is it deep grooved ? or does it actually feel like a vinyl ... anyways .... they are waaay behind my ns72 ... stating that is better than that its pretty hard to belive....

    I am a vinyl dj. Today I used the Rev7 for the first time. Absolutely mind-blowing! Of course there's always room for extras. But using the Rane One and Rane Four I think they absolutely nailed it! OMG I love this controller!

  • @HarryLoveTV
    @HarryLoveTV Před 2 lety +13

    Dude. Your videos are so helpful. I been in the market for a new mixer since Rane/Serato announced my Sixty Eight would stop working. After watching your meticulous comparison vid I decided to go with the S7 for the time being - while I get back on my practice + spend time learning Rekordbox. Without the effort you had put into succinctly defining the differences I would still be flailing as well as scratching my head with some of the functions - thankfully your vid is a good reference point.
    This said - I’m surprised there isn’t a more comprehensive set of vids from Pioneer and Serato to help really impart the muscle memory of all the different features tucked away (particularly key functions).
    There are a few annoyances about the S7 at this time (eg no mute for fx return which I am used to from the Rane 68) however I am finding that quite a few are just because I need to tweak some settings or explore further.
    Anyway, had to say thanks for the thorough vids - you and Mojaxx vids are consistently on point & invaluable.

    Thank you for the video, I used spin on Technic 1200’s back in the 80’s and early 90’s back in Chicago,but then I jumped off to pursue playing live music etc. I’m actually getting back in the game and have been looking at controllers and this one caught my eye due to the spinning platter. I really enjoyed the video and what the Ddj-rev7 can do. I’m going to go ahead and get it so I can be ready by May 20th 2022 which will be my first DJ performance since the 1992, mad respect to you and your channel and thank you once again for the review. Blessings and success to you, your family and channel.

    Thank you for posting this I'm glad I found your channel fantastic posts! I also would like to express how badly I want one of these but I'm on a tight tight budget which I'm sure a lot of us can relate to. I'd love to know if Numark and Pioneer and Hercules are ever going to make budget friendly DJ controllers with spinning platters? Or at least with spinning lights that mimic a spinning wheel. I have high hopes that one day they will have a motorized spinning platter controller with all the bells and whistles and lights for under $300 if enough of us yell about it they will listen right? Lol thank you sir

    Great video Cleveland & I agree that this will be the controller of the year. One thing the Rane One can do that this can't is using the Skratch Attach to play real vinyl but this may be an attachment that few may be interested in. I noticed during your video too the DJ City TV logo on your Rev 7 which means Mojaxx probably tried it before you, hehe. Thanks again for the video mate. Cheers

  • @djel-g6389

    Imagine a standalone controller with 12 inch spinning platters. That would be the most expensive, heaviest, most professional controller ever made. If pioneer makes it, call it the Rev-Max. Or Rane...just call it the Rane Infiniti.

    • @djchrisdisc

    First I'm glad you reviewed this cause there are some djs who will remain nameless who truly need some work on youtube period. My question is how is the build quality compared to the SX or DDJ series? Is there a lot of plastic vs metal?
    Also have you ever done a beat juggle video? I ask because the way you explained the visual I have never had it explained to me that way. I think it would be very helpful especially to someone like me to know what to look for as well as listen for. Just thought it was great how you just gave vision to it bro.
    Keep up the great vids. I'm definitely a fan. D2thaC- St. Louis

    The Rev-7 looks more professional than the Rane one (and I own a Rane One).
    The Jog Wheels remind me of a modern take on the Technics DZ1200 CD Turntables (with the spinning outer ring)
    Concerned about sound quality/output and build quality.
