Key Functionalities of the Performer

Precision Performance Mastery

In addition to the ultra-precise MAG FOUR crossfader with adjustable tension, the Performer's mixer section includes 4 redesigned Precision Feel faders. These tension-adjustable faders use the same dual-rail mechanical system as the MAG FOUR, ensuring ultra-smooth, reliable, and consistent response during mixes. You can precisely adjust these faders via the Performer's menus, including reversing and adjusting the cut-in curve from 0 to 100% for perfect customization to your preferences.

Pushing Boundaries with Stems

With its 4 unique Stem control modes, the Performer stands out in creative DJing. Rane's exclusive STEM SPLIT function automatically isolates vocal (acapella) and instrumental sections onto 2 mixer channels, giving you complete freedom to apply effects to distinct elements and add your personal touch in real-time. The STEM LEVEL feature transforms each channel's 3-band EQ into a level adjustment potentiometer, allowing you to adjust, cut, or amplify individual elements in your mix.

Extensive Effects Collection for Limitless Performance

The Performer offers over 25 fully customizable Main FX effects triggered via pads to expand your creativity, along with 4 Channel FX effects controlled by a knob on each channel. This comprehensive effects suite includes essential classics like Reverb and Echo, alongside newcomers such as Scale Down, Recycler, and Riser.
