I'm starting to see the appeal of this mixer...so let me get this straight...Serato is "built-in" to this mixer? You would still need to buy time-coded vinyl, all the necessary cables and wires (unless Sixty-Eight ships with them), and a copy of the Serato software CD...am I right? I'm guessing Sixty-Eight ships with all of the above. There's no SL1 or SL3 soundcard to plug anything into, because it's actually built into the mixer?

Well I was seriously considering this mixer as I'm also thinking about jumping on the bridge and need a new mixer for that regardless, but at that price, it's just fucking ridiculous and not likely that I could actually afford it anytime soon when I also have to fork out for Serato as well.
I suppose being a Rane mixer and at that price, the build quality will still be there even with all these new bells and whistles.

Isn't Serato free though? Only requiring the right hardware to work fully (ie. SL-1, SL-3, this mixer or that other one TTM-57 or something). That's what I thought at least.

lol. No mate. The full up to date Serato Scratch is nearly a grand here. The Bridge is free once you have both Live 8 and Serato Scratch.

The Serato hardware is built into the mixer. You don't need stand-alone Serato hardware. I checked Rane's website and this mixer does in fact ship with all the necessary cables and the Serato software CD.

You don't need to buy Serato if you're planning on buying this mixer. That's one of the reasons for the outrageous price tag.

Yeah, that's the new feature of the TTM-57. It's almost identical to the 56, except that it has the Serato soundcard built right in.

Oh ok, my bad. What about the timecode vinyl?

"The Rane TTM 57SL and Sixty-Eight DJ mixers both include two pieces of control vinyl, two control CDs, Scratch LIVE software, and extensive color manuals."

That's from the Rane website.
