The TTM 57SL is an audio mixer console, also known as a DJ mixer, designed by Rane Corporation. Rane and their software partner Serato, also known as Serato Scratch Live, teamed up together to create the TTM 57SL from Rane's prior TTM 56 disc jockey DJ mixer. The unique feature of this DJ mixer is that Serato and Rane brought their respective software and mixer hardware to create a hybrid mixer integrating two products into one, thus making it the first DJ mixer of its kind.
Features[edit]
From the mixer's control panel of the TTM 57SL one can:
The Rane Serato Scratch Live is no longer being made, its actually been replace with its upgraded version the Rane SL 2. But for those of us who have used or have the SL 1 we know they they still provide support for it even though its no longer being manufactured.
Joysticks and P Knobs[edit]
Unlike other DJ mixers, the TTM 57SL has Joysticks, J1 and J2, which spread out the features of the TTM 57SL mixer. The joysticks J1 and J2 can:[1]

P1 and P2 knobs also have special usage which expand the TTM 57SL’s functions. Usage of the P1 and P2 knobs includes:[2] Serial key windows 2012 r2.
Effects[edit]
Unlike the TTM 56, the TTM 57SL includes effects that can be used internally from the mixer. Also, a list of different effects can be chosen from Serato’s software Scratch Live. Like many dj mixers with effects, the TTM 57SL has knobs for the effects usage. The effects can be changed to fit the BPM,[3] beats per minute, or how dry or wet the effect is, how much of the effect is heard. Originally, the TTM 57SL was shipped with two effects, Echo and LFO Filter;[4] however, more effects have been added since then. The TTM57 also allows two effects to be used at the same time, which other dj mixers do not. These two effects can be simultaneously assigned to:[5]

The big difference from the TTM 57SL and other dj mixers with effects is the controllability that the TTM 57SL has on its software, Serato, straight from the mixer. The TTM 57SL also has 6 switches[6] that control the effects:
Cue Points[edit]
Cue points are visible markers which are set in a part of a song and are mostly, in djing, used to mark a special place in a song. The TTM 57SL dj mixer has this unique feature of inserting cue points straight from this dj mixer—up to 5 cue points[7] can be set.
Looping[edit]
Loops, in djing, are portions of a song which are repeated over and over again. DJ looping started in Hip Hop where djs would repeat a certain part of a song so the crowd and break-dancers can dance to, this may also be known as the breaks. The TTM 57SL dj mixer loops songs simultaneously by the push of a button. This unique feature of looping is also editable to either extend or shorten the loop by using the knobs on the mixer.
Navigating Through Library[edit]
Another unique feature of the TTM 57SL is its ability to navigate through the library[8] from the mixer. From the TTM 57SL, using the P knobs, song can be uploaded to either deck 1 or deck 2 (left deck or right deck).
Recording[edit]
Unlike other dj mixers, the TTM 57SL allows a DJ set or DJ mix, an entire or parts of a DJ's mixing, to be recorded.[9] Vocals or sounds can also be recorded[10] through a microphone and then used in a DJ mix. Like the effects, TTM 57SL records through 6 signal paths:[11]
![]() Sound Card[edit]
Another unique feature of the TTM 57SL is that it can also be used as a standalone[12]sound card,[13] also known as an audio card. https://perslaclo.hatenablog.com/entry/2020/10/13/215302. The TTM 57SL has a sound card integrated that can be used through the USB cable when not using Serato.
Changes from the TTM 56[edit]
Rane's previous mixer, the TTM 56, was similar[14] in many respects to the TTM 57SL. The TTM 57SL is slight bigger than the TTM 56.[17] The TTM 57 is 13.3'H x 10'W (33.782 cm x 25.4 cm)[18] and the TTM 56 is 13.05'H x 9'W. (33.147 x 22.9 cm) [19].
Top Panel[edit]
One of the biggest changes seen at first sight is that they added more mixing buses, knobs that are on the mixer.[15] INPUT knobs, PAN knobs, Deck button, Group button, J1 and J2 Joysticks, P1 and P2 Knobs, Stereo House button, EQ Kill Switch, Channel Swap button, Booth knob, and B1 – B6 buttons have been added to the top of the mixers control panel. This gives the user more control and the mixer more features from the top panel.

Front Panel[edit]
In the front of the TTM 57SL they added footswitch jack right next the headphone jack for hands-free functions in Scratch Live. There are also two head phone jacks, a quarter inch and one-eighth inch, for more variety of headphones. They removed the mode button that was on the TTM 56. Also, the TTM 57SL does not have the 'Contour A' and 'Contour B' cross fader knobs in the front, along with the reverse button and moved it to the top of the panel for more control.[16]
Rear Panel[edit]
Only a few things changed from the rear panel. The phono-grounds, from the TTM 57SL, were moved closer to the power outlet so everything would not be so closed-in together and for free space. The AUX Out and In RCA jacks were moved next to the PGM1 and PGM2 RCA jacks so all the RCA’s jacks could be next to each other. Also, all the TRS Jacks, also known as Quarter Inch jacks, have been moved together for organization. 3 Point Jacks have been added for Main outputs. A USB output was also added to connect the TTM 57SL with a computer.

This is an archive or an article that is no longer available and describes how I set up my Rane TTM57 sl with Serato Scratch Live to automate echo / delay effect with the bpm of the beat I am scratching too.
The original article appeared here:
and is curretly archived here:
Please note that I am unable to answer questions on this process – I literally followed the instructions step by step until it worked without a deep understanding of what is happening!
This article describes how I use the echo EFX efficiently avoiding jumping forth and back between the mixers function groups. This saves a lot of stress and reduces errors a lot.
The TTM57 SL has the great feature to automatically track the BPM of either deck to use it with the EFX. This helps saving time and makes tapping the BPM obsolete assuming your audio files have proper BPM values set. The idea now is to move the “track BPM deck 1/2” function to the “group 1” (FIXME screenshot). Then we dont want to switch to the EFX group just for choosing to which deck the echo EFX will be applied to. We accomplish this by putting the echo EFX to the FlexFX chain. Then we will be able simply by pressing the “FlexFX” send button on either channel to choose to which channel the echo will be applied to.
Assign “track BPM” to group 1
Assign “track bpm EFX1” to J1, right direction, “left deck” (left joystick J1 to right direction tracks the left deck)
1 – Switch to group 1
2 – Click on ‘J1->right direction’ with right mouse click:

3 – Choose ‘track bpm effect 1’:
4 – Choose ‘left deck’:
Assign “track bpm EFX1” to J2, left direction, “right deck”
Repeats steps 1-4 as above for joystick J2.
Switch to the EFX group
https://Spider-Web-Games-Yahoo.peatix.com/. press Group button, then B6
Assign the echo EFX to AUX (shares it with FlexFX and Mic )[FixMe Screenshot]
press B3
Turn EFX on
Set the EFX parameters accordingly to your needs
press J1, right ‘1/2’
adjust the echo parameters
I use a wet/dry setting of 50%, feedback of around 60%
Insert the EFX
So the echo EFX is now setup properly. If you want to apply them to a channel, simply press the “FlexFX” button on the respective side
Serato Scratch Live Does Not Recognize Rane Ttm57 On YoutubeUse BPM tracking to determine speed of the echo EFX
Dont forget to push the joystick J1 to the right, if you want to echo on the left deck…
See how the padlock icon in the echo EFX parameter panel appears in red (anything related to the left deck is displayed in red, for example track title, beat matching display etc.) indicating that the speed of the echo is determined by the left decks BPM (in this example the left deck has a track loaded with 112BPM)
Now if you want the echo speed to be determined by the BPM of the right dekc, push joystick J2 to the left
See how the padlock icon in the echo EFX parameter panel appears in blue (anything related to the right deck is displayed in blue, for example track title, beat matching display etc.) indicating that the speed of the echo is determined by the rightdecks BPM (in this example the left deck has a track loaded with 97BPM)
Keep in mind… choosing “track BPM for EFX” (for echo) makes the echo follow the BPM on the correct deck, it makes tapping the speed obsolete!! For example if you slow down the deck by half, then the BPM will be halved as well and the speed of the echo effect will automatically halved as well!
For example, the original tracks BPM at 0.0% pitch is 97BPM, I have choose to track the BPM on the right deck, now I have changed the pitched to +8%, see how the echo EFX speed has changed automatically to 104.7BPM (thats 97BPM +8.0% pitch)
Try it out, it is really really fantastic. Make sure your tracks have correct BPM tags!
If you apply the EFX as described above there are a few things you have to keep in mind:
