Using the DJX's Multi-function Keyboard
Using the DJX's Multi-function Keyboard
The keyboard of the DJX is far different (and more powerful!) than any you've ever seen.
Let's take a look...
Each time you turn on the DJX, the keyboard is "split" into the following functions:
Indicates Part Control and Pattern Control are both on.
Beat Reverse Key
(See page 52)
What do these keys do?
Part Select
These keys let you select
specific Parts for control
with the knobs and the
RIBBON CONTROLLER.
(See page 60.)
Special DJX Demo Voice
Special DJX Demo Voice
A special DJX Demo voice (#000) is automatically selected each time you turn on the power. This
voice has a huge variety of sounds, with each key playing a different sound — percussion, drum
loops, scratch, special FX, human voice and many others!
To hear the DJX Demo voice properly across the entire keyboard, make sure that Part Control,
Pattern Control and Sync-Start are off. (See page 13.)
z
Enter the Voice mode.
