As far as i can see he is using the fx on the djm 2000 and not any external efx unit.

It's just a high pass filter, with a lot of resonance to get that "woosh" sound.

As the track has a kind of rythmic "acceleration" each time he uses the filter, I can't tell if it's a high pass filter with an LFO or not.
If it has an LFO, it must be set to something like 1/16 of a bar.

Try both and you'll see.

I think its a high pass with a trans at a high rate.

At 3:16 maybe, but not 3:45.
Trans + HPF requires 2 hands and at 3:45 he's only using one. Hence my LFO suggestion.

What software is he using on the computer?

Tough to tell for sure with YT sound quality but it sounds like it's just the pio high pass filter turned quickly up, then quickly down. He did this a fair bit in his mix at Ultra.

I think u're right man. Thanks so much for the inputs guys! I tried every filter/fx in TP2. Chirping noise using LFO, was weird, haha.
Best result i got was from filter up and down quick. but the volumes dropped badly each time, so i eq-ed up the highs for the 1 beat.

Sounds really close, so you used filter turned to the right and back real quick aswell as the highs?

With Traktor's filter? Yeah it's not going to sound the same because the pio filter has more resonance and a different db/oct cutoff (I just woke up and can't remember the term for that atm).
