Bpm Counting - Pioneer DJm-909 Operating Instructions Manual

BPM COUNTING

Automatic Mode BPM Counting
This function automatically counts the track's speed in BPM
(Beats Per Minute), displaying the results as a numerical
value. The functions does not merely count the bass beat,
but uses a computer to calculate the track's original BPM
required by the DJ. The display provides a visual standard in
addition to the human ear, thus allowing the DJ to quickly
match two tracks possessing differing speeds.
When auto mode is used to count BPM, the calculated BPM
value is displayed on the LCD panel, allowing quick matching
of tracks with differing speeds. (Counting range: 70.0 to
180.0 BPM)
The display flashes during BPM counting.
* Some tracks may not be counted properly, in which case
manual count should be used.
