RELOOP RMP-2 Video 1 A basic review

0:00 First very basic review on this guy here

Alright folks, first very basic review on this guy here. It's from a company called Reloop. It's known as a tabletop CD player and the model number is RMP-2. Again, if you've got one of these and you want to do your own reviews, please do so. It's always a good idea to get other people's opinions and bung them underneath this video. There's a video response. Right, just to let you know as well, the track I'm going to be messing around with is David Robato. It's a track entitled Deep Inside. Right, let's press cue. I'll just turn the music up a little bit. Right, again, as with quite a few CD players, when you press cue, you keep your finger on the cue button, the music will carry on playing. As soon as you take your finger off, it stops, goes right back to the beginning. What I find with this guy is the cue is very responsive. OK, press play and then it'll carry on playing.

1:06 Reverse, alright we just put it back to the beginning again

Right here we've got track search, there we've got search through the track, folder search, of course this style play MP3s as well. Reverse, alright we just put it back to the beginning again. Okay we've got a whole bunch of effects on this as well, scratch, skid, filter, phase, echo, flanger, trans and pan. And we can use those with these guys here as well. We've got all All of the effects and what we can do, we can use the effects in different timings. So I'll press play again. Press 1 over 8 and I'm going to press the filter. Now I'm going to press 1 over 4 which is a quarter, 1 over 2 which is a half, 3 quarters, 1 over 1, 2 over 1, 4 over 1. Scratch. Also there we have the scratch with the pan.

2:55 The pitch control is very responsive as well

With the pan effect as well. A lot of people have been asking me, what on earth is a pan effect? Well basically what it means is the music, when this is engaged, the music will go from right to left on the PA system. So you'll actually hear one speaker turn off and you'll only have one speaker on and then all of a sudden the speaker that was off will go on and the speaker that was on will go off. I mean it's pretty basic so press play again. Right, the pitch control is very responsive as well. Good feel to it. We've got key lock. What that will do, it'll reduce or increase the speed when you use the pitch, but when key lock is engaged, you'll have the same feel, the same tone of the track. Have a listen. We'll disengage key lock, turn that off, now have a listen. Okay, also with this we've got plus or minus 4, plus or minus 8, plus or minus 16, plus or minus 100.

Now, on the back here, a feature I do like with this CD player, there's a couple that have got this as well, and any companies out there, I think every CD player should have this, and that is a headphone socket. Why? The reason being is, you know, we don't always want to turn on mixer, two CD players and amplifier. We would like to sometimes just turn on a CD player and listen to one CD. So with this guy you can. You can turn this on... Plug your headphones in, microphone, sorry, microphone, headphone volume there, beg your pardon, and you can just listen to your CD turning this guy on and nothing else. Alright, first initial basic video on this guy, alright? It's from Reloop, it's known as the RMP-2. Now, in my opinion, it's built like a tank. It's very solid, very sturdy, and I'm going to give it a good going over over the next couple of months. Practice and enjoy.
