< Very soon, you’ll reach the end of the song “Defective.” To help make the transition as
smooth as possible, you’ll use the Filter to gradually muffle the song until it ends.
1. When QuickCue 2 of Deck A passes under the Now Line, slowly turn down the Filter
on Deck A.
2. You’ll want to do this slower than before, as your goal is to have the Filter knob at the
9 o’clock position, right when “Defective” ends.
3. At the same time, put your hand on the Low EQ knob for Deck B. Turn this knob to
the 12 o’clock position the instant “Defective” ends. That action allows the bass from
“Picture Of You” to take over when “Defective” ends.
< Now that “Defective” has ended, it’s time to load a new song in its place. You’ll use “A
Spirit Lost” by The Nova Dream Sequence:
1. Now that “Defective” has ended, turn off the Sync button on Deck B. This will keep
“Picture Of You” playing at its current speed when you load the next song.
2. Click and drag “A Spirit Lost” from the File List and drop it onto Deck A, replacing
“Defective”.
3. This song is not as loud as “Defective,” so turn the left Volume slider on the
X-Session Pro all the way up.
4. Turn the left Filter to the 12 o’clock position, in order to disable the effect.
5. Turn the Low and Mid EQ knobs on Deck A all the way down. You’ll also need to
turn up the High EQ to roughly the 3 o’clock position (so the indicator on the knob is
pointing to the right).
6. Press the Sync button on Deck A to match tempos to Deck B. “A Spirit Lost” is now
standing by to play.
7. When QuickCue Marker 5 of “Picture Of You” passes under the Now Line, start “A
Spirit Lost” by pressing the Play/Pause button. The songs should sync up as shown
below:
