What is the FX Pack
Alongside essential DJ effects like Filters, Echo, and Reverb, DJ.Studio now offers the all-new FX Pack—an exciting collection of over 30 effects to add even more energy, width, clarity and creativity to your mixes. Designed specifically for vocals, buildups, and drops this pack includes everything from subtle mastering effects, to bold combinations that bring extra power to your buildups and make your mix standout more.
Each effect is crafted by professional sound engineers who have transformed complex sound design into easily accessible tools, making them simple to use for any DJ. For advanced users, every effect can be fine-tuned manually, giving producers even more control over their sound.
Note: FX and effect blocks are not exported to Ableton for now.
