FX MODE


Press and hold (for about 1 second) the ROLL mode button [M2] to set the Pads to FX mode (led will be flashing). The Inpulse300 FX* Pads page will be also displayed on the GUI of VirtualDJ, reflecting the operation of the 8 Pads. The functionality of the Pads in this mode is mostly hard-coded in the Inpulse firmware and most of it cannot be changed. As a result of this hardware functionality, the Pads on the GUI do not offer any functionality if triggered from GUI, they just offer an aid showing the selected FX mode and an idea of what each Hardware pad does.

*Note: This special Pads Page will be available to select, only if the Inpulse 300 MK2 is connected.

Notes
* For best results on the Reverb and Echo Effects, it is advised to enable the Post Fader Effects setting (from VirtualDJ Settings->Options tab->fxProcessing setting to Post-fader). This will allow these Effects to continue trailing for a while, when the Volume fader is moved to the minimum position

** If you wish to replace the assigned Pads page of the FX Mode (Mode 6), you will need to disable the Hardware functionality. To do so, open VirtualDJ Settings->OPTIONS tab->CONTROLLER sub-category and select the Software mode for the FXmode setting
