Roll vs slip roll

Roll vs slip roll

hey all, so im not sure u have seen pioneers new djm2000, they say they added an effect called sliproll, it is done in this video, but they do not explain the accual difference between a regular roll and a slip roll, does anyone know?

from the video i would say:

regular roll: like the beatmasher in traktor. takes a sample, which you can shorten

slip roll: the audio slips through, so everytime you press a new length button it instantly mashes the audio in that particular moment, not only shortens the loop you recorded some seconds ago..

it’s just an assumption i made, don’t know if it’s right..

Seems it takes a new sample each time you hit a parameter button.

that’s what i meant :stuck_out_tongue:

roll = press beatmasher in traktor, with the length being how short/long that sample is

slip roll = everytime you change the length, it retriggers the beatmasher while changing the length so that the sample changes also.

You wrote faster, I didn’t see your reply until after I posted.

He even explains in the vid that the sliproll takes a new sample each time :wink:

Seems rather playable so to speak… Might try to setup something like that in ableton, could be fun.
