DJ FX
The Song mode's per fragment DJ FX provide further important tools to design sounds with.
For example, the DJ FX buffers can be used to silently prepare a buffer before the song starts. The buffer can then be used in the song in various creative ways. Examples include;
- reversing phrases/patterns/loops
- reversing cymbals or kicks (often used to lead into new parts)
- reversing a reversed-played vocal sample (see conditionals) with strong reverb, for a ghostly "sucking" effect that precedes the vocal
- buffer-locking the first step (or fraction of a step) and opening (or closing) a lowpass or high-pass filter
