Reloop ELITE 2-Channel DVS Mixer for Serato, 16 RGB Pads

Reloop ELITE: 2-Channel Serato DVS Battle Mixer with Dual USB, RGB Pads & Tweak FX

Built for turntablists and performance DJs, the Reloop ELITE pairs Serato DJ Pro integration with a fast, battle-ready layout. You get 16 RGB performance pads (8 per side) for direct access to cues, rolls, loops, sampler, Pitch Play, Slicer, and Scratch Bank, plus dual USB audio interfaces (10-in/10-out, 24-bit) for seamless back-to-back handoffs.

Cut with precision: three Mini Innofader Pro faders (cross + 2 line) provide smooth, reliable response with curve and reverse options. Two high-contrast OLED displays deliver at-a-glance feedback for levels and effects, while Tweak FX puts expressive one-knob effects—such as filter, crush, flanger, and noise—under your fingertips.

Club-grade I/O and monitoring: balanced XLR master, balanced TRS booth, dedicated record out, combo mic input with processing, and dual headphone outputs (1/4" & 1/8"). Flexible 3-band EQ (Classic or Isolator, full kill), per-channel filters, and Serato FX assignment round out a rugged metal chassis designed for nightly use.

• Stable clocking: consistent 24-bit conversion supports confident headroom management.

16 RGB Performance Pads & Advanced Serato Pad Modes

Eight pads per side (16 total) put creative control under your thumbs with RGB color feedback that mirrors Serato states in dark booths.

Mode depth without menu diving: reach Hot Cue, Cue Loop, Sampler, Pitch Play, Roll, Slicer, Slicer Loop, and Scratch Bank directly from the panel, with shift layers for secondary functions.

• Memory to muscle: consistent pad placement accelerates routine building.
• Performance visibility: colors communicate banks, quantize, and status at a glance.
• Live remixing: move from cues to rolls to banks in one surface flow.

Fader System: 3× Mini Innofader Pro (Curve, Reverse, Precision Cut-In)

Three Mini Innofader Pro faders—crossfader plus two line faders—deliver the smooth, consistent feel turntablists rely on. Curve and reverse (hamster) options tailor response for crabs, flares, and transforms.

Dial your style: set the crossfader for razor gates or gradual blends; match line-fader behavior to your preferred mix/scratch balance.

• Cut-in you can trust: predictable engagement improves timing on fast patterns.
• Symmetry: both channels can be matched so left/right routines feel identical.
• Longevity: proven components support nightly use and heavy practice.

Tweak FX Macro Engine & Per-Channel Serato FX Assignment

Tweak FX puts expressive one-knob control (filter, crush, flanger, noise) at center stage for builds, sweeps, and tone design without breaking flow.

Per-channel Serato FX assignment lets you target the active source, layer software effects, and punch them on from the mixer—keeping your hands on the performance surface.

• Fast phrasing: shape drops and transitions in one move.
• Focused routing: isolate FX to the channel you’re cutting or blending.
• Live dynamics: blend macro moves with pad work for musical results.

Dual OLED Displays & On-Mixer Visual Feedback

High-contrast OLEDs keep critical information visible where you need it: on the mixer. Levels, assignments, and effect states remain legible in low-light environments.

Eyes-up performance: with feedback on the panel, you can stay off the laptop and on the crowd.

• Gain confidence: check staging quickly when swapping DJs or sources.
• FX assurance: confirm what’s active before you punch it in.

3-Band EQ (Classic/Isolator, Full Kill) & Per-Channel Filter Control

Two EQ behaviors fit two different worlds: Classic for musical shaping, Isolator for dramatic, hard-cut moves. Each band offers full kill for decisive edits.

Dedicated per-channel filters add smooth low-/high-pass sweeps that sculpt space without reaching for external processors.

• Drop management: isolate lows or highs to spotlight vocals or drums.
• Blend polishing: clean overlaps with precise band cuts.
• Tactile transitions: combine filter motion with pad cues for fluid phrases.

Microphone Channel: Combo Input, 2-Band EQ, Echo & Talkover

Voice-forward control makes hosting simple. A combo mic input with 2-band EQ, echo, and talkover keeps announcements intelligible over the music without riding channel faders.

Set the presence once and focus on the show: tone, level, and ducking behave predictably from soundcheck to last track.

• MC-ready: hype men and hosts sit cleanly in the mix.
• Corporate to club: speech stays clear across different rooms.

Output & Monitoring Topology: XLR Master, TRS Booth, Record Out, Dual Headphones

Club-grade I/O includes balanced XLR master for mains, balanced TRS booth with independent level, and a dedicated Record Out for capture devices or streaming rigs.

Dual headphone jacks (1/4" & 1/8") mean any cans plug straight in—no adapters required during changeovers.

• Independent monitoring: tune booth volume separate from the room.
• Clean archiving: feed recorders or encoders without touching the master.
• Back-to-back friendly: two DJs can cue comfortably across formats.

MIDI Mapping, High-Retention USB & Smart Link Integration

Deep MIDI mapping allows custom control layouts that match your routine—reassign pad behaviors, refine shifts, and streamline access to your most-used functions.

Smart Link USB connectivity and high-retention ports support direct connection of compatible performance decks/controllers, reducing hub clutter and improving stage reliability.

• Personalized feel: align the surface to your technique, not the other way around.
• Simpler wiring: fewer loose hubs, cleaner setups, faster strikes.

Tour-Grade Metal Chassis & Reliability Details

Built for nightly duty, the metal enclosure and secured controls withstand transport, rehearsals, and club conditions. The compact, battle-oriented layout keeps critical functions close for fast, accurate moves.

Consistency across rooms is the payoff: the mixer feels predictable from practice to performance, helping routines translate on any system.

• Durable finish: resists wear in busy booths and on the road.
• Secure connections: stable USB and audio jacks minimize accidental pulls.
• Ergonomics that matter: pad, fader, and knob placement supports precision work.

How to Deploy the Reloop ELITE in the Field

1) Pre-Show Prep

• Update & power: ensure ELITE firmware, Serato DJ Pro, and any drivers are current; connect power and monitors off.
• Workspace check: give the mixer airflow and keep drinks away from the top plate and faders.
• Media plan: prepare Serato crates, pad mode preferences, and Scratch Bank content ahead of time.

2) Decks, Inputs & Grounding

• Turntables (DVS): connect L/R RCAs to CH1/CH2 phono inputs; attach ground leads to the mixer’s GND posts.
• Media players: connect L/R RCAs to CH1/CH2 line inputs; set the rear input switches appropriately.
• Mic: plug your microphone into the combo input; start with low gain and engage talkover only after soundcheck.

3) Dual-USB Workflow (Two Laptops)

• Connect both laptops: USB A for DJ 1 and USB B for DJ 2. Launch Serato DJ Pro on each system.
• Assign decks: in Serato, select ELITE as the audio device and route Deck 1/2 to CH1/CH2 on each laptop.
• Soundcheck each side: verify that switching USB focus on the mixer passes audio cleanly before doors.

4) Serato DVS & Pad Modes

• DVS enable: select the correct input type (phono/line) for each channel in Serato; calibrate the control signal.
• Pad setup: choose your working modes (Hot Cue, Cue Loop, Sampler, Pitch Play, Roll, Slicer, Slicer Loop, Scratch Bank); confirm RGB pad feedback follows Serato.
• Quantize & sync prefs: set quantize values and sync behavior to match your performance style.

5) Gain Staging & Monitoring

• Input gains: set channel gains so peaks land healthy without clipping; use the mixer’s meters for reference.
• Master/Booth: bring up master level to the PA, then set booth level for your monitor wedges.
• Headphones: use the cue/master mix knob to balance pre-listen vs. program; 1/4" and 1/8" jacks are available.

6) Faders, EQ & Filters

• Crossfader: set curve and reverse (hamster) to taste; check cut-in on both sides.
• Line faders: select curves for either sharp gating (scratch) or smooth blends (mixing).
• EQ & filters: choose Classic or Isolator EQ; verify full-kill behavior; sweep filters for transition practice.

7) FX & Tweak FX

• Per-channel FX: assign Serato effects to CH1/CH2; verify activation from the mixer.
• Tweak FX: test filter/crush/flanger/noise macros; set levels so builds don’t overdrive the master.

8) Recording & Streaming

• Record Out: feed your recorder or encoder from the dedicated Rec Out for a clean program signal.
• USB capture: configure Serato/DAW to record the master bus if you prefer a digital file path.

9) Seamless DJ Changeover

• Hand-off protocol: cue the incoming DJ on the unused USB, match gain/EQ, then switch channel USB focus and fade over.
• Visual checks: confirm deck assignment and levels on the OLEDs before cutting the crossfader.

10) Strike & Pack-Down

• Power down: lower master/booth, stop playback, then shut down Serato and the mixer.
• Cable care: disconnect and coil RCAs/USBs; store with the mixer to speed the next setup.
