3 Wide variety of effects
1) Beat effects
The "beat effects" so popular on the DJM-600 have been given
further evolution. Effects can be applied in linkage to the BPM (Beats
Per Minute) count, thus allowing the production of a variety of
sounds. Some of the effects include delay, echo, filter, flanger,
phaser, robot, and roll.
2) Beat select buttons
Automatically set the effect time linked to the BPM. Allows selection
of desired BPM for synchronizing beat effects.
3) IN-LOOP sampler
Detects the current track's BPM and records up to 5 of 4-beat sources
in banks, and plays a loop in time with the track's BPM.
