BUILT-IN EFFECTS
The DCD-PRO1000™ comes with nine built in effects. These effects can be used one at a time or you may
choose to overlap the effects and use up to four at a time. The Built-in effects include Scratch, Skid, Filter,
Phase, Flanger, Echo, Robot, Pan, and Trans. It is important to understand that only one effect per an effect
bank can be turned on at one time, but all four effects banks can be used at a time. For example the Flanger,
Echo, and Robot are all stored in the same effects bank but only one can be used at a time. You can choose to
use the effects with their default setting or you may choose to customized each effect by changing the param
-
eters. The parameters values for all the effects will range. Some effects will have more adjustable parameters
than others. The parameters have two adjustable values, PR (Parameter Ratio) and PT (Parameter Time).
All
parameters will be reset to there default values when power is shut off!

FILTER/PHASE EFFECT: The Filter and Phase effects tweak
the original sound to add different tonal definition. When the Filter
Effect is activated the FILTER/PHASE BUTTON (5)
will glow amber,
when the Phase Effect is selected the button will glow red. The
reaction these effects have to the original tonal definition can be
altered by changing the PARAMETER TIME (2) and PARAMETER
RATIO (3)

SCRATCH/SKID EFFECT: The Scratch Effect simulates real
time turntable scratching. The Skid effect simulates the sudden
platter stop of a turntable, like pressing the stop button on a turn
-
table. When the Scratch Effect is activated the SCRATCH/SKID
BUTTON (4)
will glow amber, when the Skid Effect is selected the
button will glow red. Once the Scratch Effect has been activated
the JOG WHEEL (20) may be used in the same fashion a turntable
platter is used. Use the JOG WHEEL (20) to simulate the scratch
motion on a turntable platter and to manipulate playback. Both
the Skid and Scratch TIME PARAMETERS (2) can be adjusted
from 0010 to 9990. 9990 will give you the longest Skid times. The
SKID value ranges from a 10ms to ten seconds.
