Hi there, I want to buy a new mixer and I don't know what to choose between rane empath and ttm 56s.
I know that ttm 56s is more dedicated to scrath (I don't scratch) but I wonder what makes the empath more focused on mixing? I don't need the third line and the ttm 56s features look as good as the empath's ones...
advice? :)
thx

I just mix at home, so the only people who will be impressed by my mixer would be me and my cat! ;)Quote:

How much are you thinking of spending on the mixer mate? I stand by the DJM series. they are all good.
around 600€ max good condition second hand.
You should check on Ebay for a DJM. I absolutely adore them.
ok, I'me gonna have a look :)
thanx mate.
no bothers! I was kind of vague in my answer but here is why I love the DJM [600].
The build quality is second to none. The sound quality is fantastic and they aren't complicated to use. It does the job and is a work horse. Great for bedroom DJing and equally as effective for club DJing. The effects are basic but just right and the over all asthetic is well... chunky and solid.
get the empath.Quote:

i mean if you are going to get a two channel mixer i would recommned this, PIONEER DJM 400K - 2 CHANNEL MIXER (LTD EDITION BLUE)- EACH
but yeah if i had the cash i wud get the empath everytime.
thanx guys,
in all the reviews I've read about the empath, people said that the auto gain control generated too much compression and that they actualy didn't use it. In fact I havn't really understood what it was used for...
The djm serie looks nice but i don't need four buses as on the 600 and I don't really want effects as well, I'me quite old-skool, mixing properly good tracks is enough for me, so I prefer a simple 2 (or 3) buses unit but with really strong sound and precision, that's why I was going on the ranes.
Did one of you try the ttm56s?
cheers
