Roll & Trance Gate DJ Effects

Roll & Trance Gate DJ Effects

  • Create professional stutter, roll, reverse roll, and trance gate effects effortlessly.

  • Roll Mode repeats the selected beat length from the audio buffer for rhythmic stutters.

  • Trance Gate Mode applies rhythmic amplitude effects directly to the live signal.

  • Reverse your rolls for glitchy, chopped textures and creative sound design.

  • Invert the trance gate envelope for unique rhythmic effects and dynamic transitions.

  • X-axis controls beat length selection for precise timing control.

  • Y-axis can control rise/fall ratio, envelope curve, effect amount, or be disabled entirely.

  • Fully MIDI controllable—trigger beats using any MIDI keyboard or sequencer.

  • Visual highlighting and mapping provide intuitive feedback for live performance.
