Type Of Sound-Color Effect; Using Sound-Color Effects - Pioneer DJM-800 Operating Instructions Manual

EFFECT FUNCTIONS (TYPE OF SOUND-COLOR EFFECT/USING SOUND-COLOR EFFECTS)

TYPE OF SOUND-COLOR EFFECT

1. HARMONIC
Detects deviation of the input sound from absolute pitch and
automatically compensates to the nearest key.
By rotating the dial, the pitch/key can be adjusted within a
range of ±6 half-tones.
COLOR
Input sound
LOW HI
2. SWEEP
This function shifts the frequence of the filter, producing large
changes in tone. When the dial is rotated clockwise, the effect
produced is that of a band-pass filter, while rotating the dial
counterclockwise produces the effect of a notch filter.

1 kHz
Frequency
3. CRUSH
This effect slightly "crushes" the sound, applying a certain
accent to the sound.
4. FILTER
The filter frequency is shifted, resulting in strong changes to
the tone.
Rotating the dial to the right produces high-pass filter effects,
while rotating the dial to the left produces low-pass filter
effects.

Sound-color effects are linked to the COLOR effect parameter dial for
each channel.
* Sound-color effects are not applied to microphone inputs.
1. Press the sound-color effect selector buttons (HARMONIC,
SWEEP, FILTER, CRUSH) for the desired effect.
HARMONIC:
Applies a pitch-shifted effect matching the track's key.
SWEEP:
The track is passed through the filter and output.
CRUSH:
The track's sound is output in a "crush" effect.
FILTER:
The track is filtered and output.
¶ The button for the selected effect will flash.
¶ The selected effect is applied equally to channels 1 to 4.
¶ If the flashing button is pressed, it lights steadily, and the effect
turns OFF.
¶ When power is first turned on, all effects default to OFF
(indicators are lighted).
2. Use the sound-color effect parameter dial (COLOR) to
adjust the quantitative parameter for the effect.
¶ The parameter can be adjusted independently for each
channel.
¶ The color of the harmonic indicator changes to indicate the
condition of the harmonic effect.
Red: Does not match frequency of key scale.
Green: Matches frequency of key scale.
