G Audio bpm ...page 62 If you’ve got a favorite beat on CD or vinyl, you can easily sync it up to the DJX-IIB! The DJX-IIB “hears” the beat (from a connected CD player, MD player, etc.) and automatically locks into the rhythm by auto-adjusting the bpm of the DJX-IIB’s pattern. -

Panel Controls Top Panel P 01 N Be careful! Avoid pressing three or more panel buttons simultaneously. Doing so can cause the DJX-IIB to behave erratically. -
Page 9: E Demo Button
KEY SHIFTER button... 36 This convenient button lets you change the overall pitch of the DJX-IIB to match the music on your CDs or vinyl, or to create chord changes. You can change the key of the pattern by pressing this button while the pattern is playing. -
Page 10: Changing The Scratch Pad Cd
ROM disc with a disc of your choice. To change the disc, follow the instructions below. • The DJX-IIB does not read audio or other data from the Scratch Pad CD or CD-ROM. It merely functions as a physical “platter” for controlling the Scratch Pad, and provides added decoration. -
Page 11: Rear Panel & Connections
Amplifier The LINE OUT jacks are used to send the DJX-IIB output to a keyboard amplifier, stereo sound system, mixing console, or tape recorder. • Connect the DJX-IIB to external equipment only after turning off power for all devices. -
Page 12: Setting Up (Power Supply Connections)
Setting Up (Power supply connections) Although the DJX-IIB will run either from an optional AC adaptor or batteries, Yamaha rec- ommends use of the more environmentally safe AC adaptor. Follow the instructions below according to the power source you intend to use. -
Page 13: Switching On The Power
• Even when the switch is in the “STANDBY” position, electricity is still flowing to the instru- ment at the minimum level. When you are not using the DJX-IIB for a long time, make sure you unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet, and/or remove the batteries from the instrument. -
Page 14: Tips To Be A Dj
Hitting another button instantly switches to a different Pattern (actually, a variation on the main Pattern). Since the DJX-IIB starts the Pattern right away, be careful to press the key in time with the rhythm Practice this a while — there’s no better way to get your timing tight and develop a solid sense of rhythm! To stop the Pattern, press PATTERN STOP. -
Page 15: Switch Between Banks
Chapter 1 Pattern Player Basics Switch between Banks Even though there are five buttons in the PATTERN PLAYER, you have a total of ten Patterns at your disposal — thanks to the A/B BANK button. Each Bank, A and B, has five Patterns. When the A/B BANK button lamp is off, you can play Patterns A1 to A5. When the A/B BANK button lamp is on, you can play Patterns B1 to B5. -
Page 16: Mixing Main And Fill-In Patterns
Mixing Main and Fill-in Patterns Try mixing it up! As you learned in Tip 2 above, each of the DJX-IIB’s Patterns has ten different Variations. The main Patterns are played with buttons 1, 3, and 5, while the fill-in Patterns are played with buttons 2 and 4. (Fill- in Patterns are usually used as dynamic breaks or transitions.) - Page 17 p 01 G Exploring other Patterns Category Pattern Name Japan Beatz TECHNO Detroit DISCOMANIA Disco House CLUB VIBES Hard House DRUM'N'BASS Jazz D&B Light GANGSTA Female FUNKY HIP HOP Club Funk OLD SKOOL Scratchin’ TRIP HOP Deep Chapter 1 Pattern Player Basics Flashes 01.

Page 18: Come Down On The "One
The key to great timing is knowing where the “one” is. And the “one” is the first beat in a four-beat Pattern. Another key to timing is feeling the downbeats (four downbeats to a Pattern). The DJX-IIB makes this easy to do! Check this out: While the Pattern is playing, the dot in the bpm display flashes rhythmically. -
Page 19: Keep The Bpm Steady
Actually, the DJX-IIB takes care of this for you — automatically! If you change Patterns while a Pattern is playing, the bpm setting stays the same. However, if you stop the Pattern and start a new one, the bpm is automatically reset to best suit the newly selected Pattern. -
Page 20: Live Effector Basics
The Live Effector gives you a wide variety of real-time effects that let you mangle and munge the sound in wild and exciting ways. All of the sounds of the DJX-IIB — the Patterns and the Scratches (→ page 26) — are processed by these versatile sound shapers. You can turn the effects on and off in time with the rhythm, and adjust a pre-programmed key effect parameter and the balance (depth) of the effect in realtime as the Pattern plays. -
Page 21: Distortion
Distortion This popular effect lets you distort the sound — from a soft grunge to a full-on metallic assault. Turn the CONTROL knob to the right for more crunch and bite. Auto Pan Get your sound moving in space! This effect shifts the sound in the stereo image back and forth between hard left and hard right. -
Page 22: Phaser
Echo effect; see Tip 15 below.) And check this out — no rocket science needed! The DJX-IIB automatically syncs the delay time to the current bpm, so you don't even need to re-adjust the knob, even when the bpm is changed. Use the CON- TROL knob to change the relative delay time to match the rhythmic effect you want. -
Page 23: Echo
Like Delay (in Tip 14 above), Echo produces repeats of the sound for rhythmic effect. However, the CONTROL knob is used to change the number of repeats (also called “feedback”). Naturally, the DJX-IIB automatically syncs this effect to the bpm of the Pattern. -
Page 24: Isolator Basics
Chapter 3 Isolator Basics More sonic control to you! The Isolator lets you tailor the sound just the way you want it — phat and round, thin and edgy, or big and banging! Tweak the sound just right! Need a beefier low end? Want to put some edge and shimmer in the top? Tweak these knobs to your heart’s content, and get the sound just the way you want it! Try turning the Low and High knobs of the Isolator a little bit to the right, and make the sound more punchy. -
Page 25: Filter Basics
Chapter 4 Filter Basics Pump up the energy on the dance floor a serious notch or two with these powerful filter tools! Cutoff and Resonance The CUTOFF and RESONANCE knobs control the filter effects. And what are “filter effects,” you ask? Well, filters have been used for a long time with analog synthesizers, and in the right hands they are capable of turning static, boring sounds into something really dynamic and animated. -
Page 26: Scratch Pad Clinic
No need for vinyl here — leave your records at home! The DJX-IIB has a whopping total of 73 spe- cial Scratch “kits” that you can call up instantly and scratch right along with the Patterns! To change the Scratch kit, hold down the SCRATCH button and simultaneously turn the Scratch Pad. -

Page 28: Eighth-Note Scratching
Eighth-note scratching Once you’ve mastered quarter-note scratching, eighth notes are real easy! Just double up your scratching and play two scratches (forward and back) on every beat! For this example, call up P39 and play V B5. For your scratching, try out Scratch 01 and rock the pad back and forth in short 1/8 turns. -
Page 29: Shuffle Feel
A common DJ technique is to scratch a vinyl loop a couple of times, then let the rhythm play. On the DJX-IIB, you can do the same thing! Call up Scratch 01 and press the LOOP button (the lamp lights). Now, give the Scratch Pad a light push or pull, and the drum loop starts! To stop the drum loop, press LOOP again (or press PATTERN STOP). -
Page 30: Scratch Pad Arpeggios
Scratch Pad sound effects The DJX-IIB’s Scratch Pad has a slew of special sound effects you can fly into your tracks and give your mixes a unique, dynamic touch. -
Page 31: Stop The Turntable
You’ve heard the effect — where the whole track drops in pitch and slows down to a grinding halt! Guess what — you can do the same thing on the DJX-IIB, and have fingertip control over it, too! Select Scratch 72. This assigns the Scratch Pad to control both pitch and bpm simultaneously. -
Page 32: Part Mixer Basics
Not to mention creating some slammin’ and smokin’ tracks! What is a Part? The DJX-IIB Patterns are made up of several different instrument Parts: Kick, Snare, Hi-Hat, Per- cussion, Bass, and pitched Phrases. Each Part has its own unique function and sound within the rhythm. -
Page 33: Extra Texture
N Helpful hint: If you’ve muted several Parts, you can turn them all back on again instantly! Simply press LOOP — do this on the “one” downbeat — and the whole rhythm kicks in at once! Extra texture! Work on your instrument textures. All the mixmasters and mixologists do it! Why? Because it works like a charm! Here’s a specific example to get you started. -
Page 34: Crossfader Basics
Chapter 7 Crossfader Basics The DJX-IIB has a feather-touch Crossfader — just like those found on real DJ mixers — that lets you crossfade between your beats and your scratching! Work the Crossfader! This short-throw, feather-touch Crossfader gives you easy and fast control over the Pattern/Scratch balance. -
Page 35: Crossfader Cuts
Chapter 7 Crossfader Basics Crossfader cuts This is one of the most basic moves in the DJ’s collection of Crossfader techniques — cutting in with a scratch. Hit a Pattern and keep the Crossfader all the way to the left so that only the Pattern is heard. While the Pattern is playing, work the Scratch Pad (even though you can’t hear it). -
Page 36: Intermediate Techniques
Chapter 9... Transpose the key The Key Shifter section of the DJX-IIB lets you take the pitch (or “key”) of the overall sound, and transpose it up or down — instantly! Believe it or not, changing the key of the overall sound makes subtle but fundamental changes to the character of the sound as well. -
Page 37: Change The Bpm
N Be careful! If the Pattern is stopped and you turn the scratch pad past 280.0, “Sync” appears in the display and the DJX-IIB goes into the Sync Mode (see page 66). To get out of this mode, simply turn the scratch pad clockwise, until bpm values appear in the display again. -
Page 38: Fade In, Fade Out
MASTER VOLUME up to normal and burst in with a new Pattern! Travel light! Small and light, the DJX-IIB is made for the road! And with the two special hooks fastened onto the bottom of the unit, just slap on a guitar strap — and you’re ready to go! -
Page 39: Tweak The Cutoff
Tweak the cutoff Select P06 and start V A1. Set RESONANCE to about 2 or 3 o'clock, then slowly turn the CUTOFF knob to create a slow sweeping effect. Twiddle the knob back and forth quickly and create a wah- wah like trembling effect. -
Page 40: Warped Vinyl And A Cheap Turntable
Here’s a real convenient feature! You’ll never have to worry about your Scratch Pad Drum Loops drifting out of time — the DJX-IIB automatically matches up the bpm of the loops to the bpm of the Pattern. (For information on playing Drum Loops, see Tip 25.) However, the DJX-IIB can’t sync up your loops if you don’t play them on time! Be careful to turn... -
Page 41: Pattern Player Power Tips
Chapter 9 Pattern Player Power Tips Hitting a new Pattern and Variation — at the same time! There will be times when you’ll want to change not only to a new Pattern, but to a specific Variation — instantly and at the same time. Here’s the best way to do that! First, simultaneously hold down PATTERN and turn the Scratch Pad to call up the new Pattern num- ber. -
Page 42: Break To A New Pattern
Break to a new Pattern! One sure-fire method to turn up the heat on the dance floor is to use a break or a drop-out just before hitting a new Pattern! Here, we’ll try dropping everything out for a full measure (four beats). While the first Pattern is playing, count the beat in your mind and tap it out with your heel —... -
Page 43: One-Bar Patterns - All In A Row
One-bar Patterns — all in a row! Nearly all of the DJX-IIB’s Patterns change every bar (four beats). Some loop in two-bar patterns, some loop every four bars. Some Patterns have more obvious changes than others (for example, listen to P59, V A1), but all have some sort of musical or textural progression that make the music flow and breathe. -
Page 44: Crossfader Power Tips
Pattern loop vs. scratch loop Try Tips 52 and 53 with a Drum Loop instead of a scratch! Since the DJX-IIB keeps the Drum Loop in sync with the Pattern, you can switch seamlessly between the two — and create a ton of new rhythms! Select one of the Drum Loops in the Scratch kits. -
Page 45: Using The Bpm/Tap Button
Chapter 11 Using the BPM/TAP button Tap out the beat! Change the bpm in real time! Tap the BPM/TAP button twice rhythmically, while the Pattern is run- ning — and the bpm automatically changes to the tapped speed. Start with a tap... You can also get the Pattern going at whatever speed you like by simply tapping it out. -

Page 48: Live Effector Power Tips
Chapter 14 Live Effector Power Tips Distortion This little trick can kick your tracks into high gear! Use the Distortion effect selectively, applying it only to certain beats in the Pattern, places you want to add an accent — such as on the 2nd or 3rd beat of the bar. -
Page 49: Ring Modulation
Ring Modulation As we pointed out in Tip 10, this effect is a powerful one, so you’ll want to save it for huge, in-your- face intros, transitions and endings. Here’s how you can use Ring Modulation to build to an enor- mous climax: First, set the controls —... -
Page 50: Delay
Delay Clever use of Delay is a cornerstone in many different styles of dance music — especially dub. For a dub flavor, set the BALANCE knob to around 2 or 3 o'clock, and turn on the effect only for certain beats. -
Page 51: Echo
Echo Many styles of dance music use echo effects in surprising, unique ways. The DJX-IIB’s Echo effect lets you use the popular 3/4 beat delay to build up dramatic rhythmic rolls and fills. It also gives you some fascinating echo textures to use in transitions and endings. -

Chapter 15 Isolator and Filter Power Tips Isolator to the max! Play the Isolator in real time! Get the Pattern running, then tweak the knobs to their extreme set- tings for radical changes to the sound — on the fly! For example, try cutting back Low and Mid to zero, and bring High up to the max —... -
Page 53: Dark Mixes And Deep Grooves - Cut The Cutoff
Dark mixes and deep grooves — cut the Cutoff! Here’s a powerful trick to instantly darken up your tracks — if that’s what you’re after. It’s also great for getting a phat, bottom-heavy sound! First, set the Cutoff and Resonance to zero. Notice how all the high end disappears from the sound, and all your left with is a pulsing bass! You can accentuate this effect even more by boosting the Isolator Low knob to the maximum and setting Mid and High to the minimum. -
Page 54: Scratch Pad Power Tips
— doing sixteenth notes for just one beat or less, and leaving spaces or putting in odd accents. Keep in mind too that not all of the DJX-IIB Patterns lend themselves equally to triplet scratching. Some work well, some are a bit hard to scratch to, and a few may not work with triplets at all! Select some different Patterns and try it out for yourself, looking for what works and what doesn’t. -
Page 55: Scratch On An Intro
Scratch on an intro! Improvise on the Scratch Pad for a bar or two, then start the Pattern. To pull this off properly, you’ll want to have the bpm firmly in your memory. Also, keep your scratching simple — doing that helps you feel the rhythm and helps you lock into the coming Pattern! N Helpful hint: Try taking the bpm from the display. -
Page 56: Instrumental Dropout
Instrumental dropout Here’s a cool outro that’s like a fade-out — only much more interesting! While the Pattern is running, select Scratch 73 (Part Mixer). Turn the Scratch Pad counter-clock- wise slowly to take instruments out of the mix, one-by-one. After playing a couple of bars of only the last instrument, hit PATTERN STOP right on the “one.”... - Page 57 Three Four Bring back the whole mix — press LOOP.

Page 58: Advanced Techniques
Chapter 17 Advanced Techniques Delay fill-in and fader cut Like Tip 69 above, this shows you another way to use Delay for a fill-in — while you flick the Cross- fader to mute the Pattern. First, select the Delay effect and set the CONTROL knob to about 1 o’clock and the BALANCE knob to 12 o’clock. -
Page 59: Bored? Add Some Chords
Bored? Add some chords... and scratching! While you’re scratching along with a repeating Pattern, sometimes it may feel as if the rhythm’s going nowhere. And no amount of intense scratch work can keep the Pattern from getting old. The best way to spice things up is with some key changes! Try setting the Key Shifter to 2, and release the KEY SHIFTER button on the downbeat. -
Page 60: One-Hand Effector Control
One-hand Effector control! This technique may take a little practice and some digital dexterity — but once you’ve got it down and are able to play in the pocket, you’re on your way to being a true DJ wizard! Grab the Control knob with your forefinger and thumb, and use your middle finger or ring finger to flick the effect switch on and off. -
Page 61: Instant Reset
Need to know what the bpm of a certain track on CD or vinyl is? Here’s a convenient tool! Just tap out the rhythm of the music as you listen to it, and the DJX-IIB displays the bpm for you — automat- ically! (Make sure to turn down the MASTER VOLUME to keep the DJX-IIB Pattern from sounding.) -

Page 64: Outro -Tro -Tro -Tro
Taking the pulse The DJX-IIB has a variety of bpm-related tools that help you get the proper bpm — such as tapping it out (Tip 55) or capturing the bpm from an external source (Tip 90 above). Sometimes you may find it difficult or impossible to get an accurate reading, however. -
Page 65: Sync Applications - Using The Djx-Iib As The Master
Sync applications — using the DJX-IIB as the master The advanced sync features of the DJX-IIB let you lock it together with the rhythm and bpm of another device, such as a DJX-II, another DJX-IIB, or an external sequencer. No drift, no slipping out of sync —... -
Page 66: Sync Applications - Using The Djx-Iib As The Slave
DJX-IIB as the slave Here we’ll do the opposite of Tip 97 above. This sophisticated application lets you play sequenced patterns and song data on an external sequencer and have the Patterns of the DJX-IIB lock into the bpm of that device. -
Page 67: Get More Patterns
Once new Pattern data is loaded, select one of the Patterns U1 - U5 to play the desired Pattern. (U1 - U5 appear only when User Pattern data has been loaded to the DJX-IIB.) Up to five Patterns can be loaded at one time. -
Page 68: Tip 100 Create Your Own Patterns
Simply use a conventional MIDI sequencer software (such as XG Works) to record your original Patterns as MIDI data — then import the data to the DJX-IIB using the special Pattern Launcher software. Data for up to five Patterns (maximum of 85 KB) can be loaded to the DJX-IIB. -
Page 69: Saving And Loading The Sequence Data
• Save the file using Standard MIDI File Format 0 and make sure that the file extension “.mid” is included in the name. • Load the Pattern file to the DJX-IIB using the Pattern Launcher software. (Refer to the online Help file in the software for specific operation instructions.) -
Page 70: Appendix
Check whether the BPM is set to “Sync” or not by pressing the BPM/TAP button. When set to “Sync”, the external MIDI de- vice can start the Pattern of the DJX-IIB and the DJX-IIB itself cannnot start the Pattern. Make sure that the DJX-IIB is not set to “external sync” (see Tip 98). -
