Invert Button
Activating this button reverses the behavior of the Strobe, so that what was muted is un-muted and vice versa.
Reverse
Reversing the playback direction of a song is a useful technique for adding emphasis to certain sections of a
mix. The traditional method for reversing playback is to actually reverse the rotation of the turntable. This has
a couple of inherent problems.
First, the turntable can’t change direction immediately as it must slow down to a stop then speed back up in
the opposite direction. This can make reversing playback seem sluggish. Additionally, if the song is playing
backwards, it will no longer be in the proper location when you resume normal playback. For example, if you
reverse playback as a way to add emphasis one bar before the chorus in a song, you’ll find that playback is now
two bars before the chorus when you resume normal playback.
Torq overcomes these shortcomings by implementing reversed playback as an effect rather than as a function
of the Deck. By doing so, you can reverse playback instantaneously—there is no lag due to the turntable
changing directions. Furthermore, since this is an effect, the song on the Deck will continue to play normally
(the waveform will continue to scroll in the forward direction) thus keeping the play position correct as you
switch the Reverse effect on and off.
Enable Button
When using the Reverse effect, this button is always on and cannot be turned off.
Amount Knob and Routing Button
The Amount knob has no function. The effect is routed as an Insert effect by default.
Tweak Knob
The Tweak knob has no function.
Reverse! Button
This button will turn the Reverse on and off. This button is momentary, meaning you have to keep holding
it while the song plays backwards. When you release the button, normal playback will resume.
