Sorry if this is a very newbie question or posted in the wrong forum, but I was wondering how you can keep an effect going, lets say an echo or delay, after we've already switched the cross fader over to another record, or silence, so the echo is still heard but the record is not. Basically, the effect is cut off with the song, and i was wondering if there is a way around this. Thanks!

Unfortunately the DJ-FX are pre-fader only, so the effect will cut off when you close the fader. There is however the "Echo Out" effect in the Ultraknob effects which 'simulates' a post fader echo out (it will still cut out if you close the fader, but the effect echos and stops/mutes the track, hence the simulation).
