Topic: Help with effect that a lot of DnB and Dubstep artists use

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Listen to almost any dubstep artist and before they make a drop, or just throughout songs sometimes, there is a trick they do. Right before an artist makes the drop, the BPM (Tell me if I'm wrong) for the whole song or sometimes the whole song increases swiftly. Like it goes from "wub..wub..wub..wub.." to the "wu-wu-wu-wu" and ms before the drop it gets even faster. I'm not sure what that is and how I can increase that effect on Virt DJ (I have the free version) and do I need to buy the full version to get plugin effects? Thanks, please answer with any information, examples in videos or any helpful feedback!

yes you will need a paid version to download extra plugins.

I'm not certain but from the description you gave it sounds like a loop roll, it will loop a section of the track, but keep progressing in the timeline. rollit is the best as it can be chained with other effects, but there is also "looproll, beatmasher_single, roll, reverse roll" to choose from.
 
yes it is a loop-based thing. I figured it out, but the coolest thing you can do with a 1/16 or a 1/32 of a bar also requires an LFO, are any of the effects in the HOME FREE version similar to that, I know that there are plugins for stuff like that as well.
 
nope...
