Contents of the video

0:00 First of all, tune

Right guys, bit of a demonstration here. What have we got? We've got the CDJ-900, the DJM-800 mixer, the EFX and that over there is my prescription from the doctor. It's an inhaler. Right, first of all, tune. Just check that out, have a listen. Right, we've got the filter on. So, first of all and foremost is, let's say for example, I've got the echo by the way on the EFX. That effect over to channel 2, so make sure both sliders are up. Switch over to channel 2. Now that's on channel 2. What I can do now is go to another track. Listen. Quarter and 8. Slip mode, listen. Let's stop that. Now what was going on? Now again, please class this particular sort of video as one in absolutely millions and millions of ideas that you can do with the effects.

3:08 You notice this guy, I had it on something called slip mode

Now you notice this guy, I had it on something called slip mode. Well what is slip mode? Well basically what happens is when the CDJ-900 is in slip mode, you can mess around with that platter as much as you want. What will happen is the underlying music will carry on playing. So we'll take all the effects off and let's have a listen. One, two, three, four. And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. So of course logically if you add an echo to that, listen. Small one, big one. Small one, even bigger. Small one, small, big, small, stopping you.
