Pioneer DJM-700 Demonstration on the Down Roll

0:01 Bit of a trick here with the DJM700 mixer

Alright folks, bit of a trick here with the DJM700 mixer. What I'm going to do, I'm going to use the down roll and the frequency dial. Basically I'm going to have the track playing, I'm going to sample a tiny bit of the music and we're going to have a down roll. Then by using the frequency and also the time adjust, I can almost get that down roll to get smaller and smaller and smaller while the underlying music is being played in the background by using the frequency dial. Turn the frequency around, use the time dial to bring the roll back where it originally was, Bosch, straight back into the music. I'll show you, hold on. Right, here we go, the tune is by Danny J Lewis. What I'll do, I'll put a link to his website in the description. Alright, what I've got, I've got this guy here set to down, I've got this guy here to set to number three because that's the channel I'm going to be sampling from. Level depth set to maximum.

0:56 Move the frequency, down roll, back into the music

And I'm leaving the time at the moment, if you notice there, the down roll is set to centre position 1 over 1. Let's have a listen. Move the frequency, down roll, back into the music. Move the time, anti-clockwise, frequency up, into the down roll by pressing the two beat buttons either side. Start to go off, press the two buttons again, on beat, brings them back in. Press that, down loop, and there you go, back into the track. So basically, by messing around with the frequency and the time, we can get that down loop smaller and smaller and smaller, reduce it while still having the track playing in the background and mess around and really twiddle and twang with the sound itself. I hope that's been a help. Practice and enjoy.
