| What are the differences? Which is better? What Rane mixer is comparable to teh DJM-500 ?? Just wondering, I like the look of Pionner mixers (I have one), but a friend said I should switch up and go w/ Rane, is it really worth it? Is he even correct? I figure there both on the same level ... Any input would be great ... |

There's no rane mixer that can be compared exactly w/ pioneer. Rane for the most part uses very high end components and has unsurpassed feel and quality. Pioneer on the other hand, crams as many features into a mixer technically possiable. Personally i perfer rane b/c every rane mixer i've used had killer sound quality, great ergonomics, killer eqs, and just felt good to use.
Pioneer: lots of stuff you probably won't use live often, but has been the club standard for awhile.
Rane: Killer components, killer quality, killer sound, IMO Flexfx found on the ttm56 and empath matched w/ a decent effects processor can easily surpass the effects quality found on the DJM500/600. Rane is totally worth the $$$
If you wanna check out some rane club mixers here's a list:
MP2016 (xp2016 processor)
MP44
MP24z
mp22z
mm8z
mp2
Empath (my fav. and one i own. around the same price range as djm600)
TTM54 (turntabliist mixer)
TTM56 (Best turntabliist mixer that ever existed period!) |

| Yea, I've got my eye on the Rane Empath which I'd really like to save up for! Of course, there's a ton of other DJ gear and music I'd like to get as well, so it'll be a long time before I have enough money to buy it. ;) |
