Scanning; Matching The Beats Per Minute (Bpm); Pitch Slider - Denon DN-2500F Operating Instructions Manual

Scanning

(8)
Scanning allows you to move quickly forward or backward through the CD while monitoring the sound, and is used, for exam-
ple, to locate a specific section in a song.
Turn the shuttle dial while the player is in the play, pause or cue modes to begin scanning. The disc moves rapidly forward
or backward and the sound is output. The current point (scan point) is indicated on the LCD.
The scanning speed depends on how far from the center point the shuttle dial is turned. The more it is turned, the faster the
scanning speed.
Turn the shuttle dial clockwise to scan in the forward direction, counterclockwise to scan in the reverse direction.

MATCHING THE BEATS PER MINUTE (BPM)

• With the DN-2500F, there are two ways to adjust the playing speed and match the BPMs of the two CDs:
• Use the pitch slider to adjust the BPM statically. One of three adjustments ranges can be selected by the Preset Mode.
• Use the PITCH BEND buttons to change the BPM temporarily. Use this after adjusting the BPM with the pitch slider.

Pitch Slider

(1)
• To adjust the BPM by sliding the pitch slider up or down, first press the PITCH button to enable the pitch slider. The PITCH
LED will turn on.
• With the pitch slider, the pitch can be adjusted within one of three ranges (± 4%, ± 8% or ± 16%).
( Can be selected with preset item 3.)
• The BPM decreases when the pitch slider is moved upwards, increases when the pitch slider is moved downwards.

The scanning point indicated on the LCD is automatically
stored in the memory as the cue point.
• When the shuttle dial is released during scanning, it returns
to the neutral position, scanning stops and the search mode
i s set. However, if scanning was started from play mode,
playback resumes.
• When the dial is turned all the way to the end, the point of
playback is skipped approximately one minute, played for
about 3 seconds, then skipped again, etc.
