Description

Step up your DJ game with the Rane MP 2 Mixer, a compact powerhouse designed for precision and versatility. Whether you're spinning at a club or hosting an intimate house party, this mixer ensures your sound is rich, clear, and entirely under your control. The MP 2 Mixer is engineered with two dynamic Program buses, each capable of selecting any of four stereo Inputs, making it a breeze to mix and match your tracks.

Outputs feature a Tape Out with Pre/Post Mic sum, a balanced Auxiliary Output for booth monitoring, and a balanced house feed, ensuring that your sound reaches every corner of the venue.
