Hold down SPICE A. (Don't release the button
until you complete step 2.)
The display will read "SCT MODE."
Still holding down the button, turn MULTI JOG.
Depending on the direction in which you turn MULTI JOG,
different scratches are produced,
The Scratch mode is disabled when you release the A button.
Using the AUTO SPICE function
The AUTO SPICE function produces the sounds of SPICE A
and B in sync with the music, the sound of A in response to low
frequency signals, and the sound of B in response to high
frequency signals.

The AUTO SPICE function cannot be used together with the
BEAT function.
Depending on the music the AUTO SPICE function may not
work the way you'd expect. In such a case, use the SPICE A/B
function instead.
The AUTO SPICE function is not available when making a tape
copy between two tape decks using SYNC DUB.

Press AUTO SPICE.
"A-SPICE" will show in the display.
Press SPICE A.
You'll hear the sound currently stored in A, its name appearing
in the display,
Each time you press A the sound is produced.
If you want to change the sound of A, turn MULTI
JOG until you find the desired sound.
(If a time-out occurs after completing step 2 and before
performing step 3, press SPICE A again.)
In a similar way, check the sound of B and change
it if you want to.
To adjust the level of the A and B sounds, access
the display of "LEVEL X" by pressing RHYTHM
as many times as necessary, then within 4
seconds turn MULTI JOG.
Three levels, 1, 2 and 3, are available.
The A and B levels are adjusted at one time.
Let the source start playing to audition the effect.
The blue cascade-like indicator to the left of "BBE" in the
display will flash and the sound of SPICE A will play in sync
with the bass, and the sound of SPICE B in sync with the
treble.
When a rhythm pattern is playing or while a FILL IN sound is
being produced if you flip SPICE A or B or produce scratches, a
momentary break would occasionally occur in the rhythm pattern
or the FILL IN sound. The same goes for the AUTO SPICE sounds
when you flip SPICE A or B or produce scratches.
