Using the DJ filter effect in VibeDeck Studio

The filter is the DJ’s most used effect for a reason. One knob takes the track from full sound to a thin, phone-like sweep and back, building tension before a drop. In VibeDeck Studio the filter sweeps from low-pass to high-pass live, while the track keeps playing.
