Shape the source first
The complete three-band DJ isolator gives you immediate low, mid, and high control before the performance effects enter the signal path.

Mashup EFX
Build transitions. Create movement. Perform the moment.
A focused creative-effects workstation for DJs, remixers, and producers. Shape the source, build space and rhythm, then perform transitions from one compact interface instead of stacking a long chain of unrelated plug-ins.

One performance flow from source to movement
The layout follows the way DJs actually build an effect: shape the source, add character, then perform the transition.
1
Shape
Use the three-band isolator plus independent low-cut and high-cut filtering to make room before the effect arrives.
2
Build
Add tempo-aware delay, vintage-style reverb, and rhythmic CHOP movement without leaving the main interface.
3
Perform
Use BPM movement, reverse, ping-pong, stereo motion, and the XY pad to turn settings into a playable transition.
The exact signal flow
Every stage has a deliberate position. Audio moves from tonal preparation into rhythmic performance, then through echoes and ambience so your movement carries naturally into the tail.

Why this order worksThe isolator and filters clean or reshape the source first. CHOP and the active XY roll create the rhythmic gesture next. Delay and reverb come afterward, allowing repeats and tails to carry the performed movement instead of fighting it.
Made for the moments that move a crowd
Inspired by the immediate, hands-on workflow of leading live-DJ effects hardware used in clubs and on major-event stages worldwide—rebuilt as one focused plug-in for your DAW.
Buildups + drops
Raise tension with filter sweeps, rhythmic movement, delay feedback, and controlled release into the next section.
Stutters + chops
Turn sustained audio into tempo-locked or free-rate pulses, gates, rolls, and stereo rhythmic gestures.
Color dead sounds
Add width, ambience, character, repeats, and motion to sounds that feel static or lifeless in the arrangement.
Smoother transitions
Connect sections with high-cut and low-cut sweeps, reverb tails, ping-pong echoes, reverse movement, and XY gestures.
Built to stay neutral until you move
Loading Mashup EFX should not change the level, tone, or stereo image. Every processing section begins neutral, dry, or off.
The plug-in becomes part of the performance only when you choose it. That makes it safe to leave loaded on a DJ-edit or transition bus and bring individual modules into the sound as the arrangement develops.
The compact panel keeps every important control visible while preserving a clear path from the isolator and filters to ambience, rhythmic movement, and the final XY performance area.
Six focused modules. No wasted space.
Source
DJ Isolator
Independent low, mid, and high controls for full-band shaping and transition-ready tonal movement.
Filter
Low Cut + High Cut
Two dedicated cutoff controls with shared resonance—faster and clearer than hiding both modes behind one switch.
Space
Delay
Synced and free timing, feedback, tone, mix, clean or character response, and optional ping-pong motion.
Depth
Vintage Reverb
Size, decay, mix, space type, and character controls designed for throws, breakdowns, and transition tails.
Rhythm
CHOP
Depth, speed, mix, waveform, free or synchronized timing, and stereo movement for rhythmic gates and pulses.
Performance
BPM + XY
Rise, reverse, roll, time, and pitch gestures turn the bottom panel into a hands-on performance surface.
Combine EFX modules. Create your own sound.
Mashup EFX is more than a set of presets. Stack and balance its modules into a personal performance chain: isolate the source, sweep the filter, add delay or space, introduce CHOP movement, then play the result from the XY surface.
A
Transition chain
Low-cut + delay + reverb tail for a clean lift out of one record and into the next.
B
Stutter build
CHOP + filter resonance + XY roll to create rhythmic tension before the drop.
C
Custom color
Isolator + character delay + stereo space to give a flat source a signature sound and movement.
Four views that reveal how it works
No repeated filler images: open the real menu system, inspect the closed 3D controls, see the XY pad actively performing, and examine every module as a complete hardware-style unit.
Open menu systemEvery module—complete, centered, and easy to understand
Each close-up shows the entire section instead of cropping the controls that make it useful.
High-cut + low-cut movement
Dedicated sweeps and shared resonance make it fast to remove weight, soften brightness, build tension, and restore the full spectrum at the release.
A delay system worth performing
Tempo sync and free timing, feedback, tone, mix, character, and ping-pong movement give you the depth normally spread across several specialist delay tools.
Space without leaving the flow
The complete reverb section keeps size, decay, mix, space, and character together for breakdowns, throws, and transition tails.
Create stutters with CHOP
Control depth, speed, mix, waveform, stereo motion, and free or synchronized rate to rebuild a groove into pulses, gates, and stutter effects.
See the XY surface active
The illuminated crosshair and gesture trail make the performance visible while roll, time, pitch, and hold behavior reshape the sound in real time.
Designed for live response
Low latency. Light on the session.
Mashup EFX is designed to keep control response immediate, so filter sweeps, stutters, rolls, and XY gestures follow the performance instead of feeling detached from it. Its focused modules share one interface and signal path, reducing the need to load and manage a long chain of separate effects.
That efficient approach helps keep processing overhead modest for live sets, DJ-edit sessions, and larger projects. Exact latency and processor use can vary by DAW, buffer size, sample rate, computer, and active modules, so measured specifications will be published after final release testing.
Responsive real-time gestures
Compact shared signal path
Neutral when effects are off

No inflated performance claims
Map the performance to your hardware
Automatable Mashup EFX parameters can be mapped through supported DAWs to MIDI knobs, faders, encoders, and pads. Put filter sweeps on a rotary control, CHOP depth on a fader, delay feedback on a knob, or performance gestures on the hardware layout that feels natural to you.
Hardware attitude. Software speed.
The interface is organized like a dedicated performance unit, while every state remains recallable inside your DAW session.
The signal flow is visible at a glance, the controls stay large enough for quick movement, and related choices live directly under their module. The result feels like one instrument—not six unrelated effects sharing a window.
Resizable interface and session recall keep that workflow consistent across studio production, DJ edits, and live-performance preparation.
