Reply to Cool beatmashing with S4 jog wheels - Ean's S2 jog wheel effects reloaded

Hey everyone,

Ean's S2 video got my imagination going and I actually created a mapping for the S4 that pretty much emulates the settings he has in that video. However, Ean's mapping was made especially for that cool Depeche Mode mash-up he created. It doesn't really work for general mixing. So I decided to work out the best part of that mapping for both Decks A and B and I'd like to present it here to you now.

The jogs both control a beatmasher and peak filter in group mode in the first effect bank and turns on the T3 Delay in the second effect banks.

There are some cool things you can do with the jog wheels with these effects.

1. Catch and beatmash the track, changing the rhythm on the fly with the jog wheel.
2. While beat mashing, you can use your other hand to jump to another cue point or use the scroll knob to bump the song forward, then find a break or 1 beat and let go of the jog. The transition is pretty smooth.
3. You can catch some vocals in one deck and beatmash it, while a rhythmic part is playing in the other deck making a great mash-up.
4. You can catch a beat on the running deck and play with the rhythm while blending in the other deck, then towards a break, you can turn the jog counterclockwise causing the peak filter to add a sweep effect. This adds to the energy of the break.
5. You can do the same thing in the current playing track and create a different sort of sweep into a break. You just have to turn the jog wheel fairly quickly.

This TSI requires 4 effect banks and also the Load button selected to turn jog wheel effects on. I also fixed the problem I had with the browse mode and the load buttons.

My next step is to be able to use the load button with shift button, to load different effect groupings. My first will be to make armyofme's sweep. Any other ideas for effect groups or other cool stuff that could effectively use the jogs would be appreciated.

Have fun!
