I can't decide if i'm simply being narrow-minded and not creative enough, or being realistic.
On the real, the majority of Traktors effects are useless, and even more useless on the fly.
Is this the general consensus?
I use stuff like Delay or Gater when I have it planned out to some extent, even Transpose stretch on vocal samples. I can use filter without planning, Ice Verb is pretty easy to use with out planning. Beatmasher you can use on the fly I guess, but it gets pretty tiresome.
The rest? I deem useless. Flanger? Really? Does that EVER sound good? Even using Reverb on the fly is risky because of how heavy handed it sounds unless you have it tweaked and worked out to begin with.
Any tips on incorporating more effects? I think they're fun, and gives me something to do. But I can't decide if I'm just wasting my time and if they're simply taking away from the mix.
Thoughts?
