Section Nine: Jog Mode
When the Jog Mode LED is unlit, the Jog Wheel (when in Play Mode) will
perform as a Pitch Bend.
When the Jog Mode button is pressed, the LED indicator will illuminate,
and the Jog Wheel will then allow you to search (FF/REW) through each
track. The faster the Jog Wheel is moved, the faster the unit will search
through the playing track. In order to use the Jog Mode, the unit must
be in the process of playing, not paused. (Note-Scratch mode is enabled
by default, and is turned on/off in the Setup menu)
Playback Navigation Functions
Using the Navigation keypad left & right buttons, you can search through
a track similar to using the Jog Mode function.
Using the Navigation keypad up & down buttons will allow you to skip
to the previous or next track that was found in the Search Results. For
instance, if you searched by Artist, and your Search Results displayed 10
tracks by that Artist, using the Navigation keypad up & down buttons will
allow you to skip between those tracks.
Apple Playlist Support
The HDC-3000 has support for both Itunes playlists that are contained on
an Ipod, as well as playlists created within the unit stored directly to an
Ipod or Mass Storage Device. From the main menu both types of playlists
are accessible at any time. Playlists are created in real time within the
HDC3000, and can be saved at th end of a gig so that your set can be
recalled for future use. As well, if you wish to create a playlist from your
computer, Itunes can be used to sort music into playlists before a gig.
Creating a Playlist
The beauty of the HDC-3000 playlist system is that you are creating a
playlist all time, whether you realize it or not! Every time a song is select-
ed, it is loaded into a temporary playlist. This playlist does not need to be
saved, though the option is there if you had a particularly inspired set and
wish to try and replicate it in the future. To access the Temporary Playlist
hit the edit button twice or access the playlist screen from the edit menu.
You can save your playlist at any time, and if you need to write over a
playlist this is possible so as to be able to update your playlist at any time.
If you perform a search or enter a folder and wish to load all songs match-
ing your criteria into a playlist, simply press Shift+Enter to load all match-
ing songs into the Temporary playlist.
