Features

PAD SECTION WITH 7 NEW PERFORMANCE MODES

Developed for application with Serato DJ Pro, and thanks to the seamless plug-and-play integration, the RP-8000 MK2 in a DVS setup offers unparalleled creative possibilities. The 8 large pads with RGB illumination can control over 7 different performance modes (Cue, Sampler, Saved Loops, Pitch Play, Loop, Loop Roll, Slicer), as well as 2 user modes, which can be custom assigned with individual preferred functions. Furthermore, by using the multi-encoder it is possible to browse tracks directly from the turntable unit itself and load them instantly to the respective deck. Thanks to its MIDI compatibility, the RP-8000 MK2 can communicate with every MIDI compatible DJ software – this way, an additional controller for performance modes is not necessary.

BALANCED S-SHAPED TONEARM WITH UPGRADED TONE ARM BASE

The Reloop RP-8000 MK2 Upper Torque Hybrid Turntable features a statically balanced S-shaped tone arm with hydraulic lift and anti-skating mechanism. The newly developed tonearm base provides improved stability and an adjustable height/vertical tracking angle (VTA). The low-resonance tonearm comes with a universal connection for pick-up cartridge systems (SME).

PLATTER PLAY – CREATIVE PLATTER PITCH CONTROL

Platter Play mode allows users to control the platter’s pitch via the performance pads, opening up new possibilities for musical live performances and turning the RP-8000 MK2 into a legitimate musical instrument. A total of 22 scales and 34 notes are at your disposal with an option to create up to 9 user-defined scales. The two-speed select buttons can be used for pitch bending in Platter Play mode and also to respectively increase or decrease the audio material’s pitch in steps of one half-tone. Furthermore, the platter’s speed can also be controlled via an external MIDI keyboard.

HIGH-RESOLUTION PITCH SECTION WITH DIGITAL FADER

By using the high-resolution pitch fader, you can adjust the platter speed in the classic turntable pitch range +/-8%. The RP-8000 MK2 is also cable of a wider, DJ-friendly +/- 16% pitch range and a massive +/-50% ultra-pitch, allowing for increased creativity when manipulating and mixing records. If quartz lock is active, the platter speed will remain unaffected by the fader position and will spin at zero pitch (0%).

POWERFUL MOTOR WITH EXTENSIVE ADJUSTMENT POSSIBILITIES

The fine-tuned, quartz-driven motor with digital pitch correction operates at a starting torque of 2.8kg/cm, which can be adjusted up to a maximum of 4.5kg/cm. This makes the RP-8000 MK2 an extremely smooth running turntable. Also, the turntable break speed (platter stop) can be adjusted from 0.2 – 6 seconds and the precision-machined, heavy die-cast aluminium platter is lined with vibration-reducing rubber to eliminate unwanted vibrations and resonance.

URDY CASING CONSTRUCTION

By using a combination of metal, rubber, and synthetic materials, the RP-8000 MK2’s housing is more reinforced and heavier than ever before. This results in a turntable that is extremely resistant to vibrations caused by heavy bass sounds, and its shock-absorbing feet help to further improve this isolation. The surface is coated with a scratch-resistant high-quality deep black metallic finish.

HIGH-QUALITY CONNECTIONS AND INTEGRATED PHONO PRE-AMP

Thanks to the recessed rear connection panel, the RP-8000 MK2 can easily be mounted in a flight case and seamlessly positioned next to other DJ gear. Due to the additional output, the turntable can be connected to 2 mixers simultaneously, also allowing an easy switch from DVS to vinyl. An optional ground terminal offers additional protection in club environments. All cable connections (RCA/mains) are detachable and easy to exchange, which also helps with transport and storage.

UNLEASH A NEW DIMENSION OF CREATIVITY.

In combination with the Reloop ELITE it is possible for the first time to control the pad modes on various devices individually and simultaneously.
