FX Mode

5.4.2FX Mode

In Traktor LE, there are 3 built-in effects available to you, and a separate FX send on each channel (FX 1 and 2). You enter FX mode by pressing the FX Preset button. It will light red to let you know the channel is in FX mode. Let’s take a look at what the different controls do in FX mode.

FX Select – This slider allows you to select which built-in Traktor effect is being controlled. (Figure 5.11)

FX Wet Dry – This controls the Wet/Dry mix of the FX. When turned up (wet), more of the effect is heard where as when turned down (dry) only the original music is heard without the effect.

FX Amount – This controls the parameter for the effect. This will have a different outcome for each effect. For instance with Delay this will control the length of the delay or echo.

Filter – The filter slider controls the filter frequency. When turned all the way up the filter will remove the lower frequencies (bass) and allow the high frequencies to pass (treble). When turned down the high frequencies will be removed and the low frequencies will be heard.

A – FX ON/OFF TEMP. Pressing this momentarily turns the FX on and keeps them on as long as you HOLD the button.

B – FX ON/OFF TOGGLE. Toggles the FX On and Off.

C – KEY LOCK TOGGLE. Turns the key lock On or Off.

D – FILTER ON/OF TOGGLE. Turns the channel filter On and Off. This works with slider 3, which controls the AMOUNT of filter.
