Features - Pioneer DVJ-X1 Training Manual

RELOOP
Once set, a loop can be returned to any number of times
After canceling loop play, pressing the RELOOP/EXIT button
causes playback to return and begin again from the previously
set loop. Turning the function ON/OFF in time with the track's
rhythm allows a variety of new performance possibilities.
EMERGENCY LOOP
Pressing the EMERGENCY LOOP button causes the current posi-
tion (the point where the button was pressed) to act as a loop-in
point, with a loop-out point being set automatically for loop play.
PLAYING ADDRESS
With an analog record, the position of the stylus gives the opera-
tor an immediate grasp of the progress of playback. In the same
way, the play address display shows a bar graph that provides
an immediate visual grasp of the track's playback progress. The
current position in the track is indicated by the length of the bar;
in addition, the bar flashes to warn that playback is approaching
the end of the track.
FADER START
When the player is connected to a DJ mixer (DJM-600, DJM-
300, DJM-909, DJM-707, DJM-500 or DJM-3000 (all sold sepa-
rately)), the mixer's fader operation can be used to perform quick
start and back cue.
MULTI READ
Discs readable on this player include CD-R/CD-RW (recorded in
audio CD format), and DVD-R/DVD-RW (recorded in video for-
mat). However, since this player uses high-speed data read for
the purposes of its DJ operations, some discs may not play back
properly depending on the characteristics of the disc and the
recorder, as well as a result of dirt or scratches on the disc, etc.
PREVIEW MONITOR OUTPUT
This is an auxiliary video output that produces an overlay display
of operating information on the main video output screen, and
provides the DJ with a visual aids when operating the unit. Dur-
ing use of DVD play, cue points, loop points, and hot cue points
are displayed on a small screen overlain on the main output,
making possible interactive DJ operations.
PROGRESSIVE OUTPUT
This player is equipped with a progressive scan output connec-
tor which supports video signals with 525p frequency (compo-
nent output connector). When connected to a television monitor
equipped with a component video input connector for progres-
sive scan (525p), high definition images will be output, with
twice the data produced by conventional interlaced scan televi-
sions.
LEGATO PRO
The player is equipped with a digital filter that uses up-sampling
technology (DVD: 48 kHz \ 192 kHz; CD: 44.1 kHz \ 176.4 kHz)
for reproducing audio information lost in some disc (DVD, CD) for-
mats.
HI-BIT
This function extends the bit length of audio data. By transform-
ing 16-bit or 20-bit data to 24-bits, even minute signals can be
reproduced with smooth, finely defined sound.
About DVD playback in DJ mode
Since various special operations are supported in DJ mode,
certain limitations are placed on normal playback functions
such as SCAN. For this reason, operations which are possi-
ble in the NORMAL mode may be limited or disabled when
attempted in DJ mode. In short, if you wish to use all ordi-
nary DVD play functions, use the NORMAL mode.
Limited or disabled functions (when in DJ mode)
¶ Cannot play sub-pictures (can't display subtitles or
onscreen buttons)
¶ Cannot use password input command (when using inter-
active commands, the same operations may not produce
the same results as when in NORMAL mode).
¶ May only play midway through titles.
¶ May skip certain parts of titles.
¶ Playback may be temporarily interrupted when switching
audio functions.
¶ Playback may be temporarily interrupted when changing
viewing angle.
¶ Cannot use pan-and-scan function.
¶ The title itself may disallow use of DJ operations. In this
case, DJ operations are prohibited, and the same opera-
tions are performed as when in NORMAL mode.
