Alan Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 When Rane/ Serato first released this mixer, I wanted to purchase it. After much deliberation, the 57SL is impractical to have. Though the 57SL uses less cables than a mixer + the SL box - its only good for personal use anyhow. Really, how many people do you think will own a 57SL? The SL box isn't that large anyhow. Besides, owning expensive gear won't make you a better DJ - it's the person behind the decks that count. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbay Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 i think it would be useful for studio use, or maybe even club use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alkatrazz Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 it would def be useful for wedding dj's and some club or traveling DJ's. It doesnt seem very impractical since its also adding effects and a whole bunch of other features not just the ssl box inside the mixer.

Chee Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Well, initially I thought that it would be a massive hassle trying to hook up a mixer to an existing sound system, like in a club for example. But actually it would be as simple as connecting the master out from the 57 to a line input of the club's mixer, and you're good to go.

You could just place it on top of the existing mixer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Posted March 11, 2006 Author Share Posted March 11, 2006 Thanks for asking Rane to post pics of the 57SL Alkatrazz. For a picture - go ---> http://rane.com/jpg/ttm57slo.jpg (The picture is just too large to post). http://scratchlive.net/forum/discussion/?discussion_id=11498 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
