RANE Twelve platter speed doesn't change when adjusting tempo

DJ Hardware

I found an interesting phenomenon. When I move the pitch fader, the pitch on the djay iOS changed synchronously. And the speed of the music also changes accurately with it. BUT!!! The platter/motor of RANE Twelve runs in a normal speed! It has no change in speed!

I don’t think this is a perfect turntable adaptation, and it also affects my scratch practice. Because sometimes I need to use it in ±25% or ±40% pitch but the motor speed is not real.

Is there a way to solve this problem or will there be updates in the future？

Addendum: I have tested it with RANE Twelve and RANE Twelve MKII. They all have the same problem! (Yeah, I don’t know why the RANE Twelve works.) And Hercules Impulse T7 has no problem with it! They are all MOTORIZED controller!!!

Thanks for the details about your setup @ry900814. I will share this with the engineering team on Monday. in the meantime, can you please try to capture a short video of the issue, upload it to your Google Drive/Dropbox, enable sharing permissions, then share a link to the video here? Thanks!

Hi @ry900814, I spoke with engineering and this is expected behavior with the RANE Twelves. Changing the speed of the physical platter or making the pitch fader purely digital are both functional ways to apply a pitch fader on a motorized controller. We chose different implementations depending on the individual controller. You mentioned that this affects your scratch practice; could you please share some more specific info on how this affects your scratching? Thanks!
