PRODUCT OVERVIEW


OVERVIEW

A new, limited edition EFX-500-R gives a red-hot new look to Pioneer's increasingly popular EFX-500 DJ effects unit. The metallic red colour has been introduced in response to DJs wanting to add extra visual flair to their set up.

Using unrivaled digital technology the EFX-500-R offers a tremendous selection of sounds for the most dynamic and challenging mixes, easily creating Delay, Echo, Pan, Flanger or Transformer effects with its Auto BPM function. The Auto BPM counter automatically measures beats per minute of music and turns it into digital indication, creating live effects in sync with a pre-set beat. DJs can visually confirm the BPM of the input music source. The Effect Frequency Selection allows selection of a specific frequency from the three bands (Hi, Mid, Low), which vastly improves the musical expressions. One, two or three frequency ranges can be selected at the same time. A Momentary On/Lock On system is used for smooth transitions.

An easy-to-use Digital Jog Break Dial enables Jet, Zip, Wah, Ring or Fuzz effects to be created, while a Jog Memory Play feature memorizes Jog Dial movement and reproduces its motion at the press of a button. The depth of the original sound also can be modified.

There is a high quality 3-band equalizer, which cuts sounds up to infinity dB and completely silences the audio in each band, as selected by the DJ. A midi port can be used to connect the EFX-500-R to compatible electronic keyboards and other instruments for beat-matched effects. The metallic red style of the EFX-500-R helps a DJ create a "signature look" – and a" signature sound". Availability of the EFX-500-R is planned for early 2005.




EFFECTS


3-BAND EQUALIZER
The high quality separate 3-BAND EQUALIZER (HI, MID. LOW) cuts sounds up to -oodB and almost completely silences the sound of instruments in each band.


ISOLATOR LEVER SWITCH
Momentary ON & LOCK ON method is adopted. The switch at the Momentary position returns to OFF when you takes your finger off the lever, allowing smooth ON-OFF changeover of effects. The switch, at the LOCK ON position, continues to be ON.


BEAT EFFECTS
Press the AUTO BEAT EFFECT button (1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1/1, 2/1, 4/1) to produce live effects, DELAY, ECHO, AUTO PAN, AUTO FLANGER and AUTO TRANSFORMER, in linkage with beat set in advance.

This machine, with free selection of 3 bands (HI, MID, LOW), enables a wider range of performances than conventional effectors.

Turn the DEPTH and MIX knobs to change the depth of effects and the balance of the original sounds and effect sounds, respectively. In addition, normal effects, not linked with BPM, are possible.

You can set the beat by various methods such as AUTO, TAP, msec, BPM and MIDI BEAT.


EFFECT LEVER SWITCH
Momentary ON & LOCK ON method is adopted for smooth ON-OFF changeover.


AUTO BPM COUNTER
This counter automatically measures the BPM (Beats Per Minute) of music and turns it into digital indication. You can digitally confirm the BPM of input music sources.


TAP BUTTON
You can set BPM instantly by tapping the button with your finger. Press the button twice to input the tempo as desired.


EFFECT FREQUENCY
Button operation allows you to freely select specific frequency from the 3 bands (HI, MID, LOW) and produce effects. You can combine the bands as you like - for example, producing effects only in the MID (picture), or, conversely, selecting the LOW and HI for effects with the original sounds in the MID.


DELAY
You can set DELAY sounds at any tempo.


ECHO
You can set ECHO sounds at any tempo. Turn of the DEPTH knob to MAX produces HOLD DELAY effect, in which
repeat continue when BEAT EFFECT is OFF.


AUTO PAN
You can automatically swing sounds to the right and left.


AUTO FLANGER
This produces a sound effect like when a jet plane ascends and descends periodically. The DEPTH knob can be used to change the strength of the waves.


AUTO TRANSFORMER
This cuts sounds periodically.

DIGITAL JOG BREAK
"Digital Jog Break" is equipped for producing new digital sounds on the spot.

A turn of the JOG DIAL controls 5 effects, JET, ZIP, WAH, RING MODULATION, and FUZZ.

The DEPTH knob can be used to freely set the strength and depth of effects as well as the balance of the original sounds and effect sounds.

You can enjoy a variety of DJ performances with an instrument-feel.


LEVER SWITCH
Momentary ON & LOCK ON method is adopted for smooth ON / OFF changeover.


JOG BREAK METER
This optically indicates the motion of the JOG DIAL and the change of sounds, allowing you to visually confirm the motion.


JET
This is a function to add SHORT DELAY. Turn of the JOG DIAL creates wave sounds, with the FLANGER effect made by using 2 analogue turntables.


ZIP
The JOG DIAL can be used to change the pitch of reproduced sounds without changing the tempo. Lowering of the pitch produces sounds resembling those made by slowing an analogue turntable.


WAH
This, is a function to change cut-off frequency. Turn of the JOG DIAL makes the sound of a certain instrument strong or weak. It feels like the sound is moving.


RING MODULATION
Modulation of sounds produces a tone like the ring of a bell, providing effects such as a cosmic sound or a robot voice.


FUZZ
This is a distortion effect on sounds. The JOG DIAL changes the distorted band.


HOLD FUNCTION
With the function on, the present state can be maintained if you stop turning the JOG DIAL. With the function off, it returns gradually to the state of the original sounds.


JOG DIAL MEMORY FUNCTION
This is a new function to memorize and reproduce the motion of the JOG DIAL. When you turn the JOG DIAL and simultaneously press the MEMORY button, the motion of the JOG DIAL is memorized for as long as 8 seconds. While pressing the PLAY button, you can replay the memorized action in all the 5 effects as many times as you want.


OTHER FUNCTIONS
The EFX-500 is equipped with MIDI IN/OUT terminals for controlling the CLOCK signal of MIDI instruments. The BPM of input analogue sound signal is measured automatically, converted to MIDI-CLOCK signal, and output so that the beats of connected MIDI instruments can be synchronized.

The EFFECT MONITOR SYSTEM monitors each of BEAT EFFECT, DIGITAL JOG BREAK, and master sounds. The volume & meter controls input/effect output levels. The auto-lighting, button indicates Rear Panel the setting of each effect. The compact size makes this machine portable
