18
Phaser
The Phaser effect is similar to Flanger (in Tip 17 above), but more subtle — not
quite as dramatic.
Phaser is good for adding a little bit of warm animation and
movement to the sound.
Use the CONTROL knob to change the speed of the
modulation.
19
Slice
Chop up the beat, slice and dice — completely change the feel of the rhythm!
Use the CONTROL knob on this happening effect to change the “slice” Patterns,
and come up with new rhythms on the fly!
20
Delay
Delay is a popular effect that repeats the sound in rhythm.
(There’s a related
Echo effect; see Tip 21 below.)
And check this out — no rocket science needed!
The DJX-II automatically syncs the delay time to the current bpm, so you don't
even need to re-adjust the knob, even when the bpm is changed.
Use the CON-
TROL knob to change the relative delay time to match the rhythmic effect you
want.
The DJX-II syncs to note values — 16th, 8th, 4th, triplet, etc.
Be careful
— changing the delay time (by changing the CONTROL knob or
bpm) may result in some noise.
