- What are the effects or types of effects available?

Delay, Echo, Pen, Flanger, Trans, Jet, Zip, Wah, Ring, and an equalizer Fuzz

UTILIZATION

The it's all good. The configuration is thought to tombersous fingers.
So we ask more questions (which is good because when you have to manage the mix in addition to it quickly becomes complicated)

SOUND QUALITY

- Effects are they effective, responsive and realistic enough?

Yes is not: The effects are great EXCEPT the Fuzz and Ring that break the ears. It's not a problem if you use them but hey the pioneer of ca disappoint me. 2 useless functions

- Which ones you prefer, you hate?
I like Echo, wah, Get, and Trans Flanger
I like using: fuzz and ring

Otherwise, I have noted that the tienda equalizer is one of the best I've seen from Pioneer!

OVERALL OPINION

- How long have you use it?

6 months with a DJM 600

- What is so special that you like best?

Configuration (joogle and general)
Quality
The equalizer
The effects of applicable rates selectable

- What is so special that you like the least?

Ring and Fuzz effects that disappointed me !!!!!

- Have you tried many other models before buying it?

Table has no effect but the mix with effects and I must say that going to a level supperior!

- How would you rate the quality / price?

For the pioneer is not too bad even more!

- With experience, you do again this choice?

Without hesitation, because I can not do without. on the other hand I've ever tested EFX1000 ... So who knows if one day I sub ...

You should know that the function send / return of the djm 600 can pass on what path nimporte instantly! And that's really the top.

PIONEER THANKS!

Finally I would say that this table has effect is not perfect but as it is can be tasted without it!
