Zedd Effect
Hey guys,
can someone tell me how i get this effect with traktor? at 08:05 and 09:15
thanks!
Beat masher?
I got a chance to see zedd before he got famous, and I appreciate that his mixing skills are very basic but he still does what he likes loves.
Masher at dry/wet 60-70% with slight pitch sweep (key or transpose).
It sounds like a mix of a beat repeat, and a delay, but I do agree with Stewe, it does sound like there’s some dry/wet work in there. I like using gaters and beatmashers by starting the effect very dry, and then bringing it in. I think people are kind of used to hearing them hammered into the mix at full pressure, but if you bring them in very softly at first it adds a kind of “boiled frogs” feeling to the mix.
Funny thing…That same mix, those 3 songs, with that build up, he did live in oslo on a show i saw…Love the guy though…Easely a fun time…
When I saw the thread title, I wanted to guess beat masher. I haven’t seen him live yet, but from videos I’ve seen he seems to use it a lot.
my guess: part of the track + the hook effect
Kind of related but , pioneer sent him a 900 nexus and two 2000 nexus, so will be curious to see how long b4 he stops using the s4 n how he will incorporate traktor with it
from the mix in of ‘epic’ from ‘kick out the epic mofo’ fom 9:03 I think he used the same effects for the transition. my guess would be he activated the beatmasher to roll the sample then the ramp delay at the same size as the beatmasher and moved whatever knob changes the pitch of the delay to create the wind up tension… then again it’s probably just the pioneer rmx-1000 with some tweeked settings
Disclaimer I actually use VDJ not traktor.
It all comes to down to how comfortable he is with his setup, if he enjoys using his S4 and feels very capable with it then probably he won’t leave it. I think he has some kind of partnership or sponsorship with NI too and thats why he uses their products heavily. (From germany too 
)
Well, I tried the beatmasher 2, the tape delay, the delay t3 and pretty much everything else discussed here, but I still can’t imitate the sound. Been trying as well as it interests me just as much as the TS. More idea’s anyone?
Thanks guys. I also tried some an couldnt really get this effect. Maybe someone knows how exactly we can get this?
uh ramp delay in advanced mode 
start with the wet/dry at zero. set the duration at around 4/4 and the rate at 1/4 with feedback off. turn up the wet/dry to add delay then click the feedback button for the ramp up to begin. now turn the rate to the right all the way to ramp up the sound.; it sounded like the beatmasher was used prior to introducing the ramp delay though as stated before. it is hard to get a perfect balance between the two effects, but i’m sure stewe can figure out a mapping.
Yeah, it’s definitely beatmasher and delay
could even be the auto bouncer in place of ramp delay as it has a much more intense ramp up and has a dedicated transpose but is a little more unpredictable in the first few tries. it shouldn’t be too hard to figure it out though as there is only a couple of sliders
ramp delay in advanced mode comes pretty close
hm i thought it would but doesnt work well. has anyone somer more ideas or a mapping?
It’s just a part of the track and Beatmasher effect on 60-70% wetness so build can still be heard in back.
Okay, i gonna try this. But what do you mean by " its a part of the track"?
