4.6.3 Assigning Decks to the FX Unit and Bringing In the FX
Now we need to assign this FX Unit to a Deck. To do this, we use the FX Assign buttons at the
top of each channel on the Mixer (below the GAIN/FILTER encoder):
The FX Assign buttons on each channel.
Let’s assign the FX Unit 1 to Deck B:
1. Press the left FX Assign button (labeled “1”) on channel B to assign Deck B to the FX
Unit 1.
2. Slowly turn the DRY/WET knob clockwise to bring in the FX.

You now hear the track on Deck B being processed by the FX Unit 1.
You can also assign another channel to the same FX Unit. For example, if you also want to
apply these FX to the samples loaded on Deck C or D, simply press the FX Assign button
“1” on the corresponding channel(s) in the software.
4.6.4 Controlling the FX Unit
You can control each FX in this FX Unit by turning the respective FX Knob 1-3:

activate/deactivate each FX individually by pressing the corresponding FX Buttons 1-3 be-
low.
