Reloop RP-8000 MK2 - High-Torque Hybrid Turntable with Platter Play and Advanced Control for Serato

The Reloop RP-8000 MK2 is a professional direct-drive turntable with a high-torque motor and an integrated MIDI control section that makes it a creative instrument for turntablism . Designed for plug & play integration with Serato DJ Pro , it features 8 extra-large RGB pads that access 7 performance modes (Cue, Sampler, Saved Loops, Pitch Play, Loop, Loop Roll and Slicer) plus 2 user modes . Its unique Platter Play function lets you play melodies and scales by controlling the platter velocity from the pads, with 22 available scales and up to 9 custom scales . The real-time LC display shows pitch, BPM, scale/note, deck assignment and firmware settings to reduce reliance on a computer during performance.

The drive section offers adjustable starting torque from 2.8 to 4.5 kg·cm , adjustable dwell time (0.2–6 s), quartz lock , and a high-resolution (0.02%) pitch fader with ranges of ±8%, ±16%, and ±50% (Ultra Pitch) . The chassis combines metal, rubber, and composite materials for superior damping with anti-vibration feet , while the S-shaped tonearm (VTA) base has been redesigned for greater stability and height adjustability. The rear panel incorporates simultaneous Phono and Line outputs (integrated phono preamp) for connecting two turntables simultaneously, an optional ground socket , USB-B for MIDI data, and a recessed connection cavity for easy installation in flight cases. Via Smart USB/TT-Link, up to 4 turntables can be linked with auto-deck assignment, connecting only one to a computer.

Product benefits

• Real musical creativity : With Platter Play, the pads turn the platter into an instrument for tone play , fills, and melody lines.
• Control without looking at the laptop : LC display and dedicated pad modes with RGB feedback.
• Cabin stability : high torque, stop/start adjustment and heavy construction reduce feedback and vibration.
• Professional integration : simultaneous phono/line, TT-Link for multi-turntable setups , and a connection cavity for flight cases.
• Mixing Precision : 0.02% pitch fader with Ultra Pitch ±50% for extreme tricks and fine mixing with Quartz Lock.

Use cases

• Turntablism and battles : cuts, tone play and routines with ELITE/Serato thanks to pads and Platter Play.
• Clubs and festivals : dual outputs (Phono+Line) for quick DVS to vinyl switching and mixer redundancy.
• Studio and Streaming : Low-jitter quartz engine (Wow & Flutter 0.01% WRMS) for stable recordings.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Does it activate Serato DJ Pro by itself? No. It's an official Serato accessory , but it doesn't activate the software; you need compatible DVS hardware (e.g., Reloop ELITE).
• Which output should I use? Use Phono for the mixer's phono inputs or Line if connecting to line inputs. Both can be used simultaneously for two mixers.
• Can I link multiple RP-8000 MK2s via USB? Yes, with TT-Link/Smart USB you can link up to four units with automatic deck assignment.
• Does it support 78 rpm? Yes; selectable speeds are 33.5, 45, and 78 rpm.
