After we posted our popular “What’s In Your DJ Bag?” video featuring MSTRKRFT, some of you asked why Jessie Keeler kept white noise CDs in his bag along with his Serato CDs. Here, Ean shows you some ways to mix white noise over a track, including crossfading and effects tips.

I found some youtube tutorials on how to achieve this with chained effect presets in Traktor. I like this approach, because I’m only trying to run two decks at the moment. Wouldn’t want to fill one up with white noise, as it would make it impossible to transition between tracks.
The only thing I don’t understand is… If I set up the chain (usually consists of ice verb and some others I don’t remember at the moment), is it possible to quickly and easily switch back to individual effects?
Am I retarded or something? When I click the link it doesn’t let me download.. only listen.
dont forget guys another great way to use white noise is w/ a flanger. i dont kno if traktors built in flanger has enough features, but if u use ableton, theres a 3rd party plugin called endless flanger that basically transforms any white noise sample into a pitch build/ rise

Wehre i get the TSI File???? Maybe my TSI File is old. I cust want the same TSI like Ean Golden.
If you just turn up the Noise setting on the Gate FX then you don’t even need the white noise sample.
great video, inspires me to try some new stuff in traktor.

good eyes!
they were so popular that we sold completely out and I could not find one for this video 🙂
we are getting a new batch in at the end of november.

sa sert a rien du tout, astuce debile !
Thanks a lot had fun with this
Great tutorial!
Trying it now, using Behringer BCR 2000!
Thanks a lot Ean!
Great Stuff, Respect!
Nice idea!!!!
[quote comment=”23665″]I still don’t understand why he needs white noise cds and don’t uses white noise tracks in Serato[/quote]
so you can have 2 decks playing in serato and add white noise on top via cd players. An always on source of samples.
[quote comment=”23666″]You can make white noise by just turning on the moullahand drive or whatever that effect is called. Then you can use the gater on it like Ean’s doing here. I do it just for laughs 😛
Just turn on an effects unit on an empty deck, crank up the drive. Hey presto no need for an mp3 I think? Maybe I’m missing something and the white noise mp3 has advantages.
Either way this is a really quick way to chuck in some temporary noise.[/quote]
yes- this is an easy way to get white noise but it does have its disadvantages. A loud source file like the one in this post is more workable in the deck because of the signal flow.

You can elaborate on this technique even further with other wave shapes too!
Think, sine, pink noise, sawtooth, etc.
This would be the basis of a variety of synthesizers!
With some pitch shifting/time stretching you can get al sorts of tones and sounds. Throw on a gater, and it rocks.
I usually plug this little iPod touch app into one of my decks:
http://www.apptism.com/apps/oscillator
It gives you
– Four waveforms. (i.e. sine wave, square wave, saw wave and white noise.)
That you can fiddle with.
Infinite fun.
But be careful, this thing’ll peak your gear in second if you aren’t careful.
Wow, why did I not think of something like that. Thats pretty cool.
Great to see a old trick done in a new way!
Cool video. Simple technique that brings a lot to the table.
Here’s a site for some white noise.

Cheers
good show chaps!
thanks for the holiday post! 😀
Thank you sir for that splendid demonstration. I figure that might of been the use but I did even think about using the effects to further shape the sound. I really need to spend some times really exploring the possibility of the effects in tracktor pro beyond the obvious.
Thanks Again Ean!
could we get a link to that file?
Nice one!
fun! thanks for the vid (FIRST!)
