The Empath is the most able 3-channel, 10" format mixer available. The name implies: understanding, awareness and sensitivity to the needs of DJs.

Rane Empath Rotary Mixer Features:

Universal internal power supply - When traveling, finding power supply adapters is difficult. The Empath accepts 100 to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz power, for use anywhere in the world without adapters.

Auto-Gain - prevents performance-wrecking swings in program level when changing sources. The music is never too soft or clipped.

FlexFX - is a post-fader external stereo effects loop with individual Dry/Wet pan controls for Mic and Input Channels 1, 2 and 3.

Penny & Giles Faders - Simply the best money can buy. Smooth, accurate and reliable mixing is made possible by employing the most respected name in audio faders.

Two kinds of fader caps are provided for different mixing preferences: soft rubber caps for smooth mixing, and hard plastic caps for fast mixing.

Flash-Cue allows the DJ to rapidly select Crossfader A-Cue-sum or Crossfader B-Cue-sum with the flick of a switch, normally slow or complicated on other mixers.

Multiple Outputs. Nothing is more frustrating than arriving at a club and finding their jacks don't match. Systems may have XLR, TRS or RCA connectors. The Empath provides all three.

Low and High headphone tone controls allow the DJ to match their mixer to their headphones.

Both 3.5mm and 1/4" headphone jacks are simultaneously usable. More headphones are compatible with the Empath.

Two assignable CD triggers work with any CD player with fader start ability.

Accelerated-Slope, full-cut, 3-band tone controls are the most flexible and highest quality available.

Crossfader assign switches allow any Input Channel to be mixed on the A-side, B-side or Post Crossfader.

Level meters view Stereo Cue, Stereo Master Mix, Split Cue or Main Output signals.

Needle Dr reviews the Rane Empath Rotary Mixer
The Rane Empath rotary mixer as fun to use as it is to listen to. In use, the rotary dials provide accurate mixing with a great feel. DJs are able to literally 'dial in' their mixes with surgical precision using the highest quality potentiometers on the market. The equalizers on each channel use dials of the same quality and feel, and the crossfader is among the most reactive on any mixer you'll try. Sonically, the Empath is as well-balanced as any Rane before it, sounding great in clubs and bedrooms alike. Especially great for disco music, the Empath Rotary is a wonderful tool for both pro and amateur DJs.
