To assemble the platter system on your RANE ONE MKII, follow these steps:

1. Remove the RANE ONE MKII base from the packaging. Remove the platter assemblies from the package (on top of the ONE MKII). Place the ONE MKII on a flat, stable surface for assembly and operation.

2. Place the platters onto each deck of the ONE MKII base by aligning the pins in the bottom of the platter with the holes in the ONE MKII’s motor. Press it down firmly. Check to make sure that it rotates uniformly and does not wobble excessively.

Note: If you would like to adjust the slip friction of the disc, consider placing 1-4 of the included washers over the spindle, underneath the slipmat. The more you elevate the Control Disc with the washers, the more spinback you will get.

3. Place the slipmat onto the platter. Then place the Control Disc over the spindle (with the attached Quick Release Adapter on top). To lock the Control Disc to the spindle, pinch the top of the spindle while slowly rotating the disc until you hear it click. It locks when the groove in the spindle lines up directly opposite to the button on the side of the Quick Release Adapter.

To connect and start using your RANE ONE MKII:

1. Make sure you have downloaded and installed the latest version of your DJ software.

2. Place the RANE ONE MKII on a flat, stable surface.

3. While the power is switched off, plug the included power cable into the ONE MKII first, then plug the cable into a power outlet.

4. Power on the RANE ONE MKII using the power switch.

5. Use a standard USB cable (included) to connect the USB Port to an available USB port on your computer or a powered hub connected to the computer.

6. Open Serato DJ Pro and go!

The Mixer controls on the RANE ONE MKII have the following functions:

• Deck Source: Set this switch to the desired audio source from this channel: USB A or B (a computer connected to USB A or B port), or Line (a device connected to the Deck Phono/Line In on the rear panel). A deck’s controls will send MIDI information only when its deck source selector is set to USB A or B. If using DVS, connect turntables to the phono input but set the Deck Source selector to USB A or B.
