Equalizing
Each deck of TWITCH features a 3 band equaliser (EQ section) with low, mid and high controls.
The EQ controls are used to cut or boost specific frequency bands. You can use them to
balance the sound of two tracks that have been mastered differently, to make a track sound
“right” on your particular system, or for creative mixing techniques. With EQ, less is usually
better - when boosting do so sparingly. Cutting frequencies is also usually better than boosting
them. For example, if you have a track with too much mid range, rather than increasing bass
and treble to compensate, it is better to reduce the mid frequencies.
The controls’ range of cut/boost can be set on the SETUP screen, at MIXER > HARDWARE >
GENERAL.
Keylock
Normally, changing the speed of a track results in an accompanying change of the pitch of the
music. With KEYLOCK on, when you alter the speed, the track will retain its original pitch. This
can be used to avoid two tracks sounding out of tune when mixing them together. KEYLOCK has
scratch detection, so that the pitch processing is disabled when scratching, for a more natural
scratching sound.
