SOUND COLOR FX
The unit is equipped with four “SOUND COLOR FX” functions
(ECHO, JET, PITCH, and FILTER), achieving a wide range of musical
arrangements.
By simply turning the control, it is possible to create the effect you want,
and a variety of remix can be achieved such as adding original arrange-
ments to the music.
Also, BPM information can be obtained from “Serato DJ”, making it
possible to add the ECHO effect linked with the BPM of the song being
played back.
OSCILLATOR
The unit is equipped with the “OSCILLATOR” function for generating
four types of sound (NOISE, DROP, LASER, and SIREN). Operation is
simple. Just press the button of the sound type you wish to output. You
can take music to an entirely new level by superimposing oscillator
sound over the track you are playing back or further emphasizing the
climax of the music. Also, you can change the tone by simply turning
the [OSCILLATOR PARAMETER] control, making it possible to generate
oscillator sound that is matched to the track.
SLIP MODE
This unit is equipped with a Slip Mode function by which the sound
continues in the background while such operations as looping, scratch-
ing and hot cueing are being performed. This allows DJ performances
without changing the original track’s development after such playback
operations as looping, scratching and hot cueing are completed.
NEEDLE SEARCH
Points can be searched for simply by touching the touch pad with a
finger. This makes for intuitive, speedy searching with the sense of
touching the music directly.
