The PERFORMER boasts 7" high torque die-cast aluminum platters with acrylic discs that respond just like vinyl. Magnetically attached to the platters, the discs provide consistently accurate feedback. In the center of each platter is a high-definition 3.5" LCD screen that displays deck info, moving waveforms, album artwork, and library views. The Day Mode option reverses contrast for a clear view so nothing gets washed out when in sunlight.
PRECISION FEEL FADERS
In addition to the adjustable MAG FOUR crossfader, the PERFORMER mixer section features 4 revisited PRECISION FEEL FADERS. These adjustable tension faders utilize the same dual rail mechanical system of the MAG FOUR, but in a horizontal fader that's mounted vertically on the circuit board. This translates into ultra-smooth, reliable, and consistent response when playing. The faders can be further customized in the onboard menu, giving you the ability to reverse them and adjust the cut-in curve from 0-100%.
STEMS CONTROL
With 4 unique options for controlling stems, the PERFORMER sets the standard for creative open format DJing. The PERFORMER features RANE's exclusive STEM SPLIT feature, which automatically splits the acapella and instrumental sections across 2 mixer channels, giving you the freedom to add FX to individual elements, adding your own touch on the fly. STEM LEVEL transforms the 3 band EQ on each channel into adjustment knobs, allowing you to adjust, kill, or boost individual elements.
EXPANDED FX CAPABILITIES
Add flexibility and distinct flavor with more than 25 paddle-triggered, fully customizable MAIN FX and 4 knob-controlled CHANNEL FX. This robust FX suite boasts traditional classics like Reverb and Echo, along with some newcomers such as Scale Down, Recycler, and Riser. The entire fader FX suite from the RANE SEVENTY A-TRAK SIGNATURE EDITION mixer has been ported over to the PERFORMER. This allows PRECISION FEEL volume faders to be used as linear controls for roll, pitch, and ring modulation. Seamlessly switch between the built-in hardware FX and Serato's software FX, providing plenty of options for whichever style you choose.
RANE LEGACY
The RANE PERFORMER is the only 4-channel motorized DJ controller built to RANE's rigorous standards. The PERFORMER earns the namesake from the talented professional artists that put this controller to work, making good use of the PRECISION FEEL FADERS, MAG FOUR crossfader, and industry-leading sound quality.

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
