0:01 You'll know exactly what I'm on about

All right, ladies and gentlemen, do you ever get the days when you think not a lot of people know about this? Not a lot of people know about that. That phrase is going out the gene. You'll know exactly what I'm on about. Right. Track I'm using is by The Disciples. It's a track entitled They Don't Know, and it's got one wicked bass line. What I've done, I've just formed it a loop. A bit more of the track. Okay. Great tune. But what we're doing is we're using the DJM 2000 and we're going to use the noise effect, white noise. First of all, I'll play the loop, give a demonstration of white noise using this filter dial here. So go back to the loop. White noise is engaged. Turn the filter dial from seven o'clock.

1:02 Let's leave the filter there

Through to max. Right, let's leave the filter there. I'm now going to engage roll. We can hear the filter is staying at a constant. Now move the dial and we don't get any change at all. All right. Just have a listen to this. Now that is wacky. You get a wah, wah, wah, wah, wah. So I'm going to do it again. I'm going to engage the roll while the filter is on. And let's have a listen. So back to other clock. Roll, move the dial. Nothing's happening. Now exactly the same procedure this time. As soon as I press the on off, I'm turning the dial at the same time. So there's two movements, but they both happen at the same time. So engage noise. So we're getting a definite effect with the or definite effect added to the white noise. I'm going to try quickly to turn the filter even more now to see if we can get more of an effect. Now do exactly the same movement, but not move the filter when I engage the roll. Okay, so what is happening? Well, we are getting the roll over the white noise effect. So the roll is actually changing the style

The feel of the white noise effect, but that can only be achieved if you turn the filter dial very quickly at the same time as you hit the on off button to engage or disengage the effect. All right, check it out. I don't think even Pioneer know about this. They might do, but have fun, practice and enjoy. Thank you.
