Hi
I've searched the forum (and the ADDONS/VDJ8 page on the VDJ website) but I can seem to find any Gate FX to use in VDJ8.2.
The last forum-post about a gate effect dates from 2012 ...
I'm looking for a simple Gate effect, with adjustable settings (1/8, 1/4, 1/2 beat).
I tried the 'Transform' effect, but that effect only affects beat-parts of music (when there is no beat (for example only synth) in the music the effect doesn't do anything).
I'm also searching for a Echo Out effect (like in Traktor Pro: Freeze Delay): 1 button effect with adjustable (1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 1 beat) parameters. When button pushed, Echo kicks in and music stops, leaving only Echo to continue and slowly fading out by volume or (HF, LF) filter (fade length adjustable via parameter) (Pre Fader).
Would love to hear suggestions

Not true, the transform effect and audiocut 8 follow the cbg beat or no beat, the only time they don't work is if you call either effect before the point that is recognized as the first beat.

Where do I find the 'audio cut 8' effect ? Did a search on the Virtual DJ 8 ADD-ON / Effects-page but no result (neither on the Virtual DJ 7 ADD-ON / Effects-page) ...

Tested Transform again, with the given info by Locodog. The issue is indeed due to fact that in some cases (when song beginning with a synth of a capella), the first beat (red line-marker in POI) is set AFTER the synth or a capella. And as it seems (and mentioned by Locodog), Transform is applied from the first beat on (red line-marker in POI).
So, is there a gate effect that functions on the beatgrid (tempo), wherever the first-beat-marker may has been set ?
(So also BEFORE the frist-beat-point)

The regular echo works as a echo out when you set fxProcessing to post fader
Here is an example:
Here is an example:
Remember that just about everything in VDJ is programmable
So for instance if you want to combine post fader echo with stopping the track instead of stopping it manually, you can program something (a keyboard key, a custom button, a button on your controller or a button on a custom pad page) to something like this, which starts the effect and stops the track after 100ms, but the post fader setting then lets the echo continue:
effect_active 1 'echo' & repeat_start 'stop' 100ms 1 & stop
You can even combine it with setting the echo strength and length so it's always the same when you press the button.
That'll be something like:
effect_slider 1 1 75% & effect_slider 1 2 50% & effect_active 1 'echo' & repeat_start 'stop' 100ms 1 & stop
Of course you can change the values in all scripts as you like
