Changing The Settings - Pioneer DDJ-S1 Manual De Instrucciones

 PHASER
The phaser uses filters to shift the frequency spectrum to create a sweep-
ing effect on the audio source. A low frequency oscillator will alter the
speed of the sweep. [FX MIX] will change the depth and feedback of the
effect.
Use these to set the cycle for moving the phaser
PARAMETER control effect as of time of 1/6 – 32/1 with respect to the time
of one beat of the BPM.
The further the control is turned clockwise, the more
the effect is stressed.
LEVEL/ DEPTH control
When turned all the way counterclockwise, only the
original sound is output.
 FLANGER
The flanger effect is when two identical sound sources are mixed
together at slightly different times, creating a more natural sounding
audio sweep up and down the frequency spectrum as you change the
parameter of [TIME]. [FX MIX] will change the depth and feedback of the
effect.
Sets an effect time of 1/6 – 32/1 with respect to the
PARAMETER control
time of one beat of the BPM.
The further the control is turned clockwise, the more
the effect is stressed.
LEVEL/ DEPTH control
When turned all the way counterclockwise, only the
original sound is output.
 CRUSHER
Crusher adds distortion and lowers the bit rate resolution of the audio
source. This effect can either sound glitchy or overdriven depending on
what point your bit depth is set to.
PARAMETER control Adjusts the degree of the effect.
The further the control is turned clockwise, the more
LEVEL/ DEPTH control
the effect is stressed.
 TREMOLO
The Tremolo modulates the signal volume, lowering and increasing it
rhythmically to the set time divisions, as if you were performing a series
of cuts on the mixer's crossfader. [TIME] determines the rate of the vol-
ume drop, while [FX MIX] modifies the modulation on the signal volume.
The depth of the cut is determined by the wet/ dry amount, with 100 %
being a cut to silence.
Use these to set a cut time of 1/16 – 8/1 with respect
PARAMETER control
to the time of one beat of the BPM.
Sets the balance between the original sound and the
LEVEL/ DEPTH control
effect sound.
 BRAKER
The braker acts like a classic turntable styled "stop" braking function,
where the audio winds down to a complete stop before resuming play-
back once again. Depending on the length of [TIME] set this effect can
sound like a quick fire stop button brake all the way through to the clas-
sic "turning the turntable off" technique, allowing the audio to slow down
to a complete stop.
Sets a brake time of 1/16 to 8/1 with respect to one
PARAMETER control
beat of the BPM.
Sets the frequency at which the brake sound is
LEVEL/ DEPTH control
applied.
 REPEATER
This effect repeats audio chunks similar to a loop roll function. You can
control the "chance" the playing audio stream will be repeated, the count
at which the audio section will be repeated for, and the time of the audio
division to be repeated.
Use these to set a repeat time of 1/16 – 8/1 with
PARAMETER control
respect to the time of one beat of the BPM.
Sets the frequency at which the repeated sound is
LEVEL/ DEPTH control
applied.
 REVERSER
This effect reverses a section of the audio signal, mixing it with the origi-
nal audio. You can control the length of the audio stream to be reversed,
and the "Chance" of repeating audio.
Use these to set a reverse time of 1/16 – 8/1 with
PARAMETER control
respect to the time of one beat of the BPM.
Sets the frequency at which the reversed sound is
LEVEL/ DEPTH control
applied.

Changing the settings

ITCH's environmental settings can be changed according to the usage
conditions.
1 On the computer screen, click [SETUP].
The ITCH setup menu opens.
2 Click the tab for the item you want to set.
The details of the setting items are displayed.
For details of the various tabs, see the individual explanations described
later.
! The ITCH version information is displayed at the bottom left of
the [SETUP] menu.
! If the computer is connected to the Internet, click [CHECK FOR
UPDATES] to check whether more recent software is available.

 HARDWARE
FIRMWARE
This unit's firmware version can be checked here.
! When [Update Available] is displayed, a newer version of the
firmware is available. Click [UPDATE FIRMWARE] to update the
firmware. If [Up to Date] is displayed, there is no need to update the
firmware.
GENERAL
The USB buffer size "usb buffer size (latency)" setting can be changed
here.
ITCH divides the audio data into small packets for playback. This packet
size can be adjusted here.
! If the buffer size is made small, the operation of the jog dial is trans-
mitted accurately and the system's transmission delay (latency)
decreases, but dropouts in the audio data (interruptions in the
sound), etc., may occur.
