VirtualDJ 5 DJC Edition
c) Backspin
The backspin function sends an impulse backward on the music track, as if you
had momentarily pushed a vinyl record counterclockwise.
The backspin action must be short, otherwise you stop playback of the track.
The backspin effect stops when you push the button again.
Setting the backspin effect
You can set the backspin effect by pressing the Backspin button and turning
the jog wheel at the same time:
- the left jog wheel sets how long the backspin will last (shorter =
counterclockwise, longer = clockwise),
- the right jog wheel sets how fast the backward impulse goes (slower =
counterclockwise, faster = clockwise).
d) Overloop
The Overloop function sets a 4-beat loop of the current track and plays it in the
background of the track's playback.
To enable the Overloop function, press the Overloop button once,
To disable the Overloop function, press the Overloop again.
e) Beatgrid
The Beatgrid is a beat repeater: it samples 4 beats of the current music track
and play this 4-beat pattern over the music, during 4 beats, which adds
intermediary beats to the music.
If you keep the Beatgrid button pressed down, the 4-beat pattern is added
continuously as a loop over the music track.
If you release the Beatgrid button, the 4-beat pattern stops at the 4
th
beat, while
playback of the music track continues.
