FEATURES

The Pioneer CMX-3000 is a twin CD player designed for use by DJs which provides not only the features and performance required in
a discotheque sound system in a CD player but also provides new features only possible in a CD player.
JOG DIAL
The large 110 mm diameter Jog dial enables better handling
than an analog turntable.
÷ SCRATCH PLAY
When the jog dial is rotated in the SCRATCH mode, playback will
occur in response to the direction and speed of jog-dial rotation.
÷ PITCH BEND
This function changes the music tempo depending on direction of
Jog dial rotation and speed of movement.
÷ FRAME SEARCH
Moves the disc from pause position in frame increments (1/75 sec)
when the Jog dial is rotated in pause mode.
÷ SUPER FAST SEARCH
You can search the disc faster than normal search or track search by
holding down a SEARCH button or TRACK SEARCH button as you
turn the Jog dial.
WAVE DISPLAY
This display makes it possible to find the breakpoint between tracks
in advance and use it as mix point or end point in the same way as
you can on an analog record by checking the position of the needle
in the groove.
BPM SYNCHRO HOT CUE
Each of the players can be preset with up to three Hot Cue points (1,
2, 3), thus allowing you so begin play instantly from any of the
points. Also, by setting the BPM with either auto or TAP button, that
BPM value can be used for HOT CUE synchro playback.
TEMPO CONTROL
60 mm high-precision slider coupled with a 0.05% increment
digital display (within a ±6% range) allows exact control of speed to
make tempo adjustments easy and accurate.
÷ TEMPO CONTROL RANGE
The maximum variable range can be set to four variable ranges:
±6%, ±10%, ±16% and WIDE to facilitate adjustment.
÷ MASTER TEMPO
Changes music tempo without changing pitch.
CUE
÷ BACK CUE
After storing the Cue point in memory, press the CUE button while
playing the unit to go back to the Cue point and start over.
÷ AUTO CUE
Auto cue automatically locates the song's start point even if it
differs from the track's frame, allowing the player to start instantly
at a press of the PLAY/PAUSE (38) button.
÷ CUE POINT SAMPLER
The sound from the memorized cue point can be reproduced by one
touch, which can be used as the start point check and the sampler.
REAL TIME SEAMLESS LOOP
This function simplifies setting and releasing loops. This function
lets you set a loop while you are playing a track. A loop can also be
set at the end of the track so that the track does not stop. In
addition, an ADJUST mode has been added to enable one-touch
adjustment to the Loop-out point and facilitate loop operation.
RELOOP
Allows you to replay a loop any number of times.
Press the RELOOP button after releasing loop play to return to the
loop start point. Clever use of on and off in combination with the
rhythm make it possible to create new sound effects.
LOOP PLAY MEMORY
Loop information can be programmed in the HOT CUE button, so
the desired loop play begins instantly when accessed.
EMERGENCY LOOP
When this function is used to designate a loop in-point, the loop out-
point is automatically set and loop play begins.
PLAYING ADDRESS
This bar graph provides a visual representation of track playback
progress that enables you to see current playback position just like
you can on an analog record by checking needle position. The
length of the bar shows current position and a flashing bar provides
advance notice of track end.
SLOT IN
Discs are loaded directly without opening doors or trays, making
track selection that much faster.
FADER START
QUICK START and BACK CUE can be performed using the fader
function on DJ mixers DJM-500, DJM-600 and DJM-300 (all mixers
are sold separately).
MULTI READ
CD-R, CD-RW discs can be replayed. (However, due to certain
special characteristics of some discs, recorders as well as dirty or
damaged discs, some discs may not replay properly.)
CD TEXT
CD TEXT informations are displayed if the CD includes the CD TEXT
information.
