A neighboring company, CRANE, has developed an awesome laptop stand. The staff at Rane liked them so much that we become one of their dealers so that we could offer the stands for sale on our website.
The CRANE Stand folds flat, has no loose pieces to lose and is fully adjustable. The patented Cam Lever makes it easy to lock the stand in place and allows for an infinite number of positions, truly making this stand completely versatile to fit anyone's needs. The stand's unique three-legged design allows you to slide the stand underneath a turntable, mixer or any other equipment—giving you the freedom to position your computer exactly where you need it, saving you valuable workspace. CRANE Stands are made in the USA.
DJZONE AT ANAHEIM PRESENTS THE CRYSTAL DISC AWARD FOR BEST NEW CLUB DJ PRODUCT FOR 2010 TO RANE FOR RANE SIXTY-EIGHT MIXER
Anaheim CA -
January 15, 2010
The editors of DJzone, the largest online information network for DJs in the world, once again attended the annual Winter NAMM show in sunny Anaheim California in search of the best new product releases for the coming year. After reviewing all the new products geared towards club DJs for well over a day, they came to the unanimous conclusion that Rane’s new Sixty-Eight Mixer stood out from all the competitors.
On that note they were proud to award the Crystal Disc Award for the Best New Club DJ Product for 2010 to Rane for the design and creation of the Rane Sixty-Eight Mixer. Rane joins the gilded ranks of past winners of this award that include Denon with their DN-D6000 CD Player and two time winner Pioneer with the CDJ1000 CD Player and SVM-1000 Club Video Mixer.
The Sixty-Eight includes Serato Scratch Live software and is the first professional DJ mixer with two USB 2.0 High Speed ports with support for real-time connection of two computers. Two DJs can work in parallel and/or seamlessly transition from one DJ to another. The mixer features direct control of over 30 Scratch Live library, cue and loop functions.
“The thing that stood out the most about the Rane Sixty-Eight was the feel of it. It just felt and handled like a Rane. It’s a quality you can feel,” says Sid Vanderpool publisher of DJzone Magazine“ I seriously believe this mixer will be a contender in the club market.”
ELEVATOR (DJ & music store) presented Germany’s first DJ equipment technology award during the Musikmesse 2010 in Frankfurt.
Weeks ago, jury members Pascal Feos (DJ), Carsten Pomorin (Raveline magazine), Eric SSL (Sunshine Live broadcast station), Jan Walden (ELEVATOR) and D-Tale (DJ) pre-selected six products per category.
Following online voting thru ELEVATOR’s homepage, best three products per category were selected by visitors.
Saturday at the Musikmesse, the top products were presented in a short showcase by the product promoters in front of the jury. Questions and answers were following to deepen the knowledge of the product technology and features. Critical questions by jury members Carsten Pomorin and DJ Pascal Feos made the show challenging.
In the “best digital vinyl system” category, the Rane SL 3 was presented by DJ Clay-369 and DJ Riccardo La Roccia.
The product presentation and the features of Scratch Live finally convinced the jury as well as the audience, distanced the Rane SL 3 way above competition and became unrivalled and clear winner of its category.
