A.D. (Artificial-Dissemination) – Reduces the bit rate of the music creating increasing distortion with intensity.
CHOP – This effect works best when the Beatkeeper™
is properly aligned. Chop breaks up the music by
turning the volume on and off based upon the BPM of
the Beatkeeper™. First activation of the effect plays
1/8
th
note or half of every beat. In the BPM display will
indicate an 1-8 which means one measure (4 beats) of
music has been broken into 8 parts. Rotation of the
wheel to the left decreases the parts to 1-4, 1-2, and 1-
1. At 1-1 the music plays for 4 beats then is silent.
Rotating to the right breaks up the music into 1-16, 1-
32, 1-64, then smaller increments making for another interesting effect. When the effect is first activated the
music will play the section then turn off for a section. This is important because you can reverse the sections
that are off and on by activating the effect in the other section. If you deactivate the effect then turn it on
again it remembers the last set parameter.
PAN - This effect also works best when the
Beatkeeper™ is properly aligned. Auto-pan
alternates playing right and left audio based upon the
BPM of the Beatkeeper™. First activation of the
effect plays alternates on 1/8
th
notes or half of every
beat. In the BPM display will indicate an 1-8 which
means one measure (4 beats) of music has been
broken into 8 parts. Rotation of the wheel to the left
decreases the parts to 1-4, 1-2, and 1-1. Rotating to
the right makes faster changes of 1-16, 1-32, 1-64, then smaller increments making for another interesting
effect. If you deactivate the effect then turn it on again it remembers the last set parameter.
Isolate - This isolation filter lets you play only a
specific frequency of the music. Rotation of the
wheel moves the frequency played through the
audio spectrum. If you turn off the effect then on
again it remembers the last set parameter.
KILL- This elimination filter lets you play all but a
specified frequency. Rotation of the wheel moves
the frequency not played through the audio
spectrum. If you turn off the effect then on again it
remembers the last set parameter.
Reverse- Plays the music backwards. When the effect is activated the music will play backwards until it is
released. There is no limit to the amount of time you can reverse.
Bleep- The effect activates as soon as the button is
pressed. It is a temporary (forward) reverse
function for “bleeping” dirty lyrics or creating
interesting effects. By pressing the button the
music plays backwards from buffer until released or
until the buffer runs out
. When the button is
release, or the buffer runs out
, the audio plays
forward form the point where the music would have
been if the button was never pressed. For example, is the effect is activated for 5 seconds at 10 seconds
into a song, forward play will resume at 15 seconds. The buffer time for this operation is variable depending
upon the number of loops set and anti-shock buffer available.
