OPTIONS
K
Type: choose what kind of controller is connected to the channel: turntable or CD player.
Mode: choose the control mode of your turntables or CD players.
Absolute: in this mode, the playback position of the control record/disc corresponds precisely to the playback position of
the audio file in the player. Use the Absolute mode when you want to use your turntable's tonearm (or the seek function
on your CD) to skip through the track. If you are using CD decks, you can use their cueing and looping capabilities as
well.
Relative time: needle drop support. Needle drop is proportional to the vinyl time. If you want to go to the middle of the
song, place the needle to the middle of the vinyl record. In this mode, MIXVIBES VFX will not update the position of the
song if there are needle small moves. Then the position in the vinyl and the song can be different. With this mode, you
can loop or skip to location (cue point). This mode is interesting for mixing.
All Relative: in this mode, the playback position of the control record/disc does not correspond to the playback position
of the audio file in the player. Use the All Relative mode when you want to use non-linear functions like hot cues
(Locations) and Loops. In this mode you can use the 'drop to location' feature.
'Drop to location': with vinyl, setting the needle on a vinyl position (3s-1mn/1-2mn/2-3mn/3-4mn/4-5mn) allows to go to a
MIXVIBES VFX location. With CD, store locations on the CD deck at positions ~50ms/100ms/150ms and go to these locations
allow to go to a MIXVIBES VFX location.
Audio interface: select your audio interface.
