MARKER:- These are pointers used to set certain points within a song such that while playing that
song, that you can instantly or eventually jump to certain parts of the song (e.g. verses, choruses ...
etc) without having to wait until the song is finished. Midi Programs like Cubase or Cakewalk can be
used to create/insert markers within the song. When you touch MARKER, these marker points are
then displayed for you to select where (within the song) you would like to go to. You can program the
MARKER (by touching the box next to it and turning the data wheel ) such that as soon as you touch a
marker, the SD9 PRO will:-
o Immediate – Go to selected marker point in song at once
o
End bar – Go to selected marker point in song after completing the current measure it is
playing.
o
End Section – Go to selected marker position in song after completing the current section
(e.g. after completing verse).
o End Loop – Go to selected marker position in song after completing current loop.
•
AUTO PLAY:- When this is turned on (yellow), when using either PLAYER 1 or PLAYER 2, all
songs (midi or audio) within the current folder are played back to back. The silent time (in seconds)
between each song is set by touching the Space box and turning the data wheel to set between 0 (no
space between songs) to 30 (30 seconds between songs). This feature is great especially when you are
performing and need to take a break between sets but have no DJ.
•
Moive/Pdf To RGB:- When this is off (blue), if you play a movie file (mp4, avi ... etc) on the SD9
Pro, the movie will be displayed on the SD9 Pro's internal screen/display. If this is on (yellow), then
the movie will not be displayed on the SD9 Pro – however, it will be displayed on an external
tv/monitor that has been connected to the unit (at the back).
•
CDG Jump:- This function allows you to skip the initial data found on CDG files and it's cancellation
value can be set by touching the value next to it and changing with the data wheel.
•
Crossfade:- This sets how quickly (Fast1, Fast2) or slowly (Slow1, Slow2) or Normal the SD9 PRO
will lower the volume of one song while transitioning into the next song (like a DJ). So while one song
is playing, if you select another, the volume of the first song decreases (its speed being determined by
this setting) while the volume of the 2
•
Lead Chan:- Most Midifiles have a channel purposely set for the lead/melody track. For most GM
files, this channel is track 4. However, the lead channel can be reassigned here by touching this icon
and turning the data wheel to change it (to any value between 1 and 16). This value is tied to the LEAD
MUTE button on the panel. This means you can e.g. assign it to channel 5 and when you press the
LEAD MUTE button, the bass will be muted (if this is what you wanted).
