Fade to Grey?

Can anyone explain to me in detail how to get the fade to grey effect like in Ableton. Ive been using low pass filter + high pass filter + delay on the ultra knob settings, but I cant seem to get them adjusted properly to get same effect. Thanks!

I did this a while back and also posted the tsi I think… I’ll see if I can find it

Thanks man, that would be great!

I cant find it. I’m wondering if some of the older posts have been deleted within the forum move :disappointed:

I’ll keep trying.

Here you go.

Seriously, if anyone tells me to use search on this forum at the moment they clearly haven’t used it themselves! It’s horrendous at the moment.

I had to go and use google to find the post, as not only is it a bit silly the way you have to get to search at the moment, once your there its not up to the job! :smiley:

Search here is a PITA right now! Fix it please, guys…

It’s being worked on right now.

[/quote] Cool that sorta helped, but I’m using Serato Scratch Live and it wont work the same. I’ve played with the settings for hours now and I’m just not getting the same effect. Thanks for you help though.

Thanks for the help, but I’m using SSl and its just not the same.

Ahhh sorry I didn’t realise.

If I remember right it’s explained when to kick in what, in that thread. I’ve never used Serato so can’t really help much more than that. Hope you get sorted :slight_smile:

Thanks again. I think serato needs to step it up a notch or two for controlerist. I’m about to switch to traktor.

Traktor won’t get you fade to grey either. The issue is that it uses Ableton’s Ping Pong Delay……I’m not sure SSL has anything similar. I don’t have my SL1 with me, so I don’t think I can check on it’s effects, but the right chain (without a PP Delay) is LPF → HPF → beat-sync’d delay → an auto-pan with the pan time set the same as the delay time, which IIRC, was about 3/8 of a beat. The knob should lower the LPF cutoff and raise the HPF cutoff so they cross and end up passing silence, while turning up dry/wet on the delay from 0% to 100% and raising the feedback from 0 to about 25 or 30% …ish (give or take, IIRC) and turn the auto-pan 100% dry to 100% wet.

I couldn’t exactly duplicate it in Traktor, but it would take 3 FX units to do it (one in chained, two in detailed).

I’m not sure if SSL can do it at all.

[/quote] That seems about right. The best I could do with Serato was combine Lpf with hpf and delay and then manually use the loop roll effect. seems to work allright, but not exact.

I thought we nailed it from what I remember, but it was a while ago. :slight_smile:
