RANE Four Review: Does It Live Up to the Hype? | DJ Controller + Stems

🔥 Get Yours! https://passionatedj.com/hookup_ranefour
The RANE Four is a four-channel controller, meant to bring stem separation into the mainstream. But does it hold up to the hype? That's what I hope to find out today. There are a few things I expect from RANE gear:

Sturdiness
Scratch-friendliness
Tight integration with Serato
A forward-thinking (but uncomplicated) design.

My hope was that the FOUR would meet all these expectations, while offering an experience that convinced me of the usefulness of stems (the breaking down of a song into individual parts).

Outside of stems, the FOUR is a standard all-in-one DJ controller for Serato, with paddles that give access to 22 MAIN FX, 4 knob-controlled CHANNEL FX, and Serato DJ software FX.

It has 16 performance pads, topped by 8 beautiful OLED screens which give pad-related feedback. You’ll also find 8.5” high-resolution capacitive static platters with full-color center display, and support for external connections (such as turntables).
