11
01 Playing the Sampler During the Song
Although we won’t record it in this example, let’s try playing the sampler along with the song you recorded.
1. Press the [p] (play) button to play back the song.
2. As the song plays, press the pads to play samples.
For example starting at the beginning of measure 1, try
pressing pads [2] and [6] simultaneously. If you press the
[HOLD] button while pressing a pad, those pads will be
held and their sounds will continue playing.
02 Applying the TFX (Total Eect) to the Song
Let’s use TFX (total eect) to apply an eect to the entire song.
1. Press the [p] (play) button to play back the song.
2. Press the [SELECT] button to make the “p”
symbol move to the lowest position.
3. Turn the SOUND MODIFY [5] knob to set TFX
SELECT to “DJFX LOOPER.”
4. Starting with the SOUND MODIFY [6] knob
turned all the way to the left, turn it slowly
toward the right.
The eect is applied according to the position of the
knob.
Try out various TFX
Turn the [5] knob to try setting TFX SELECT to “DELAY”
or “PITCH SHIFTER.”
To turn TFX o, turn the [5] knob all the way to the left.
Using the Sampler and TFX
05
You can use the pads to play sampler sounds during the song, and use TFX (total eect) to
apply an eect to your entire song.
Control multiple parameters from a single knob
Although the eects in the fourth row have multiple parameters, the “global control” feature lets you easily
control multiple parameters using a single knob.
