HARNESS THE POWER OF SERATO STEMS

RANE and Serato have a long history of creating groundbreaking DJ products together, dating back to the RANE SL1 box in 2004. The RANE FOUR takes this partnership to the next level by melding the industrial-grade build and sound quality of RANE hardware with the powerful new Stems capabilities of Serato DJ software. The result is a next-level DJ controller with unprecedented Serato Stems control. A dedicated Stems Pad Mode, Instrumental and Acapella buttons, and RANE’s exclusive STEM-SPLIT feature provide you with the ultimate Stems workflow and experience to fully elevate your creativity as a DJ.

NEW LEVELS OF CREATIVE FX

The newly designed internal FX suite features 22 paddle-triggered, fully customizable Main FX and 4 knob-controlled Channel FX for adding flavor and personality to individual Stems elements and tracks.

The FOUR is DVS-enabled and unlocks both Serato DJ Pro and Serato Pitch ‘n Time when connected to laptop running the latest version of Serato. Enhanced Sampler routing options allow you to control the Sampler volume via a dedicated knob, or assign the audio to Channel 4 so that you can layer FX on top of your DJ drops, instruments, and other samples. The quick-access deck selection buttons allow for swiftly switching platter control between software decks, and the FOUR also supports external modular decks like the RANE TWELVE MKII and the Denon DJ LC6000 for a full physical 4-deck mixing experience.
