Filter, Echo, Trans, Skid, Phase, Flanger, and Pan. You can choose to use the effects with their default

SCRATCH & SKID EFFECT: The Scratch Effect simulates real time
turntable scratching. Once the Scratch Effect has been activated the
JOG WHEEL (9) may be used in the same fashion a turntable platter
is used. Use the JOG WHEEL (9) to simulate the scratch motion on a
turntable platter and to manipulate playback. Both the Skid and Scratch
time parameters 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.
