Use the Aux out, so you can use the Aux knobs to effect any channel, not necessarily the live one. If you don't want to use the crossfader to control the effects, you could always go into channel 1 or 2 (the return channels), and keep your 1/4" to 1/4" cables. Aux Out to Input 1 (or 2) generally serves as the 62's Send/Return.
I have to say that Harriz' use of the crossfader is a pretty cool idea, as I like to use the crossfader to control the filters on my 92. |

I like using the faders as I play techno & tech house, but I only play techno & tech house in my bedroom ''out there'' I play underground hip hop at partys
( :lol I like to use the word underground I mix commercial in too ;) (sorry guys, got to keep the girls dancing!! Girls dance -> Party happens -> I get more gig's!!! -> getting gigs -> good!!!!!!!!)
I also use the cheap treak harmonic mixing thing to make up for my mediocre
hip-hop programming ( hey.. at least I am honest!)
fs2 at the decks ->tractor 3.0 looping the intro -> reedit of the mix with efx ( usually the opposite of what zabiela does ,or better put what zabiela does but backwards
boom bassline ''magically" kicks in,a key higher, macking up for the fact that I am actually playing alicia keys & 50 cent ( I suck i know! ) ;) everybody's like ''WOW this guy is good'' And no, in case you are wondering I wasn't born with a ''strange sence of melody , dom philiphs (OF THE GU FAME) is EMBARACENGLY full of with those liner notes that ruin what would have been descent prog compilations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :whip: )
so yeah... use of the crossfader comes natural (because of practice) to me.
Unless you will be mixing 4 line level channels at once (and.. no c-loops doesn't count!)
I would keep the efx routed to the crossfader for quick rhythmic eq & fx changes of the signal)
(Again excuse my ty spelling as I am foreign!!!!!!! )
english -> second language for me |

I just ordered a Korg KP2, I was planning on getting a efx, but I need a record box aswell, so I just decided on the spur of the moment to get the KP2 instead and a record box, save a little cash so I can upgrade my mixer.
I hope I didn't make a mistake with the KP2 instead of a efx.
Btw can the efx record samples? and if it can how long? |

I only ordered it today, it will be here next week only.
I was just wondering if it was a bad idea or not, compared to getting a efx. |

No. But you can create infinite loops with the Echo effect. |

By doing a Feedback Loop (infinite echo), you can "sample" up to four beats of a tune. |

How do you like the Numark 500FX? I was thinking about getting that vs a dxm-09... I just need a 3-4 channel mixer for 3 deck techno |
