One-hand Effector control!

This technique may take a little practice and some digital dexterity — but once you’ve got it down
and are able to play in the pocket, you’re on your way to being a true DJ wizard!

Grab the Control knob with your forefinger and thumb, and use your middle finger or ring finger to
flick the effect switch on and off. This lets work the effect in rhythm — and still have your right
hand free to change Patterns and work the Scratch Pad. Or use your right hand to further mangle
the sound with the Isolator or Part Controller knobs!

As always, keep the rhythm steady — a master DJ is only as good as his time! However, this effec-
tively starts the same Pattern with all its original settings, including resetting the Key Shifter to “0”
— and puts you back at home base!
