Effects section
The Effects section gives you full creative control over how you shape your sound. From detailed manual adjustments to one-click instant effects and expressive X/Y pad gestures, you can choose the workflow that best matches your style. The Effects section is a central hub for customizing and performing with FX in djay.
To open the Effects section, tap the Tools button.

You can use the FX section in three modes:
- Pad
- Instant
- Manual
Pad
Use the X/Y pad to control the selected FX with intuitive trackpad or mouse gestures. On a trackpad, use two fingers to adjust.
Choose your effect by tapping the dropdown next to the effect name or the skip button to choose the next effect.

Instant
Quickly access eight one-click effects. Use Edit Mode (pencil icon) to customize which effects are shown in the panel. You can also choose how effects are triggered. You can either tap or hold to trigger the effect manually, or activate Hold mode to keep the effect engaged automatically.
When Hold is highlighted in blue, it means the effect will stay on until you turn it off.

Manual
Access up to three effects per deck and change them by clicking the effect name. Use the controls next to each effect to turn them on/off, adjust the dry/wet mix, and control effect intensity.
Depending on the effect you select, a slider or beat control will appear beneath its name.
