You don’t have to be a Rane surgeon…
It’s that time people – when R&D labrats are chained to desks and mainlined with a diet of triple expresso, Redbull and Haribo – and marketing types get all mysterious and chuck out a few measly morsels of teaser PR for us journos to tear apart to see if there’s a hidden code or special meaning behind carefully chosen words. Well Rane are first out of the Pre-NAMM starting blocks with a short but sweet email

He’s the DJ, I’m the writer – Rafik on the Kontrol X1
Having taken some time off to fondle the new Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol X1 on an away mission, Mr Postie (sounds better than Mr Courier-ie) just dropped off a pre-Christmas pressie in my open waiting arms – a spanking new X1 with a serial number (thus assuming it’s a final unit) but sans the usual spiffing packaging. Who cares – I would have just torn it off anyway. And coinciding with this are a handful of cracking hot Rafik vids, showing off his shit hot skills, and also what a little practice can pull off with a heap of NI gear.
