    great job. Ive been checkin out all the 72 reviews since i picked up the mixer. I agree the internal fx are not as strong as the S9 but after turning up the depth i am happy w the internal echo fx. I had the same problem you mentioned with the touch sensitive knobs, I took off the scroll knobs and put on some chroma caps to eliminate the issue.

    From the main menu you could adjust the loudness and punch of the on board effects by going into the main menu, select flex efx, choose your effect, hit the wrench on the left of the effect you choose, and adjust the loudness and depth.

    Yes I am aware of the settings you can change for the effects, and like I mentioned in the video even with everything turned all the way up the effects are not as pronounced as the effects on the Pioneer DJM mixers. Rane's hardware effects were very similar on the Sixty-Two as well.

    Don't be fooled, the echo's are bouncy & all over the place or too soft, not robust. Adjustments are better after the update, but gives that feel of "missed it by that much".

    Does the Rane 72 has post fader effects for Serato Dj? Also can you use the pitch bends buttons on the mixer while mixing with 12 for me be wonderfull will feel like ns73 better control especially when mixing salsa music or live stuff

    Unfortunately the Serato DJ effects are not post fader, but the hardware Flex FX are post fader.

    I’ve watched the comparison to the S9 which I currently own and for me the things that would be useful is the usb hub because I own 2 rane 12 decks. The layout and fx along with the lag on the screen left me staying away from this mixer. I think the s9 with the rane 12 decks is a good combo.

    I did find that the performance of the screen is somewhat dependent on the laptop being used with it. When I upgraded my DJ laptop I did notice some improvement but Its still not perfect.

    Personally I think the screen on it fits really well, especially for the mixer still maintaining the standard 2ch 10 inch mixer format.

    Screen has LAG. It's called LAG. Basically it is too slow to display what you are doing at the time. It's very bad thing actually considering screen is main selling point of this mixer

    Have you played on one extensively with the correct firmware? I haven't run into any issues since I the updated firmware. Just like the Pioneer S9 had some issues when it was first released (the crossfader issue), after a firmware update things are a lot better.

    Le Mex no way and its only for Rekordbox, get an SR2 it does everything you need to get the job done and if later when you learn all the features on that you can move up to bigger. I wouldnt Recommend the 1000 unless you are gonna rock Rekordbox only. I will say from experience Serato video is better than Rekordbox video just my opinion.
