Rane MP2015 - DJ Changeover

MP2015 MANUAL
DJ Changeover
One of the biggest challenges of digital DJing has been seamlessly changing over from one DJ to the next and playing
back-to-back DJ sets. With the dual USB architecture of the MP2015 mixer, changeover between digital DJs has never
been easier.
Deck Changeover Controls
At the top of each input channel is the Source Selector
to switch input sources. If your computer is connected to
USB port A, switch a channel Source Select knob to USB
A, and the mixer assigns the corresponding virtual deck to that channel for audio playback. For example, assigning all four
channels to USB 1A-4A assigns all four virtual decks to the computer connected to USB port A.
The same applies to USB port B. If your computer is connected to USB port B, switching a channel Source Select knob
to USB B, assigns the corresponding virtual deck to that channel for audio playback.
When two DJs are connected to the MP2015, they can quickly swap deck control between computers using the Source
Select knobs. Any of the four inputs can be swapped back and forth with a simple knob twist. Nice and easy, just the way
we intended.
The DJ Changeover Walkthrough
In the scenario below, one DJ, let’s call him DJ A, is already connected to the MP2015 using either USB port A or B. With
DJ A’s computer already connected and playing music, do the following:
1. Connect your computer to the unused USB port on the MP2015.
2. Switch the Input Source on a non-playing input channel to the USB source of your computer.
3. Play a track on this Deck and mix it in when you're ready — audio from both computers are in the mix.
4. Fade out the audio playing from DJ A’s computer to the audio playing from your computer.
5. Assign the Input Source for the remaining free mixer channel(s) to your computer and continue DJing.
When DJ A is done, disconnect his computer from the USB port. If you’re back-to-back mixing with DJ A, keep the
computer connected and perform the same swapping instructions to regain deck control.
