GENERAL FUNCTIONS AND CONTROLS (Cont.)
you to use the PITCH SLIDER to speed up or slow down playback speed without altering the tonal
pitch of the track. When this function is not engaged the original tonal pitch of the track will be altered
giving you the "chipmunk" effect when a track is played at a high rate of speed, or the "James Earl
Jones" effect when a track is slowed to much.
7. SGL/CTN - This function allows you to choose between single track play or continuous track play
(all tracks in order). This function also operates in RELAY (FLIP-FLOP) mode, when RELAY is acti-
vated.
8. TIME BUTTON - The TIME button will switch the time value described in the TIME METER between
ELAPSED PLAYING TIME & TRACK REMAINING TIME.
9. JOG WHEEL MODE BUTTONS - The JOG WHEEL has 3 effect functions;
• A. Cue Scratch Mode:
In Playback Mode - While in playback mode the JOG WHEEL can be used to return the unit to
the last set CUE point. Simply touch the JOG WHEEL surface and the unit will immediately re
turn you to the last set CUE point and start playback.
In Pause Mode - When the player is paused, touching the JOG WHEEL surface will start play-
back and will continue to playback until the JOG WHEEL is released. Once the JOG WHEEL is
released the unit will return to the last CUE point.
• Vinyl Mode: When this mode is active, use the JOG WHEEL to simulate turntable scratching.
• CDJ Mode:
In Playback Mode - When this mode is active the JOG WHEEL can work as a pitch bend dur-
ing playback. Turning the wheel clockwise will increase the pitch percentage up to 100%, and
turning the wheel in the counter-clock wise direction will decrease the pitch percentage down to
-100%. The pitch bend will be determined on how long you turn the jog wheel continuously.
In Pause Mode - When the player is paused, you can use the JOG WHEEL to frame search.
10. PITCH SLIDER - This slider is used to adjust the playback pitch percentage. The slider is a set
adjustment and will remain set until the pitch slider is moved or the pitch function has been turned
off. This adjustment can be made with or without a disc in the drive. The pitch adjustment will remain
even if a disc has been removed and will reflect on any other disc loaded into the player. That is to
say, if you set a +2% pitch on one disc, remove that disc and insert another, that disc too will have a
+2% pitch. The amount of pitch being applied will be displayed in the VFD (23).
11. (+) PITCH BEND BUTTON - The (+) pitch bend function creates a momentary "BUMP" in the
audio's BPM's (Beats per minute) while it is playing. This will allow you to match the beats between
the two playing deck's or any other music source. Remember, this is a momentary function. When
you remove your finger from this button, the BPM's will automatically return to PITCH SLIDERS (10)
selected pitch. Holding down this button will give a maximum of +16% pitch.
(-) PITCH BEND BUTTON - The (-) pitch bend function creates a momentary "Slow Down" in the
audio's BPM's (Beats per minute) while it is playing. This will allow you to match the beats between
the two playing deck's or other playing music source. Remember, this is a momentary function. When
you remove your finger from the pitch button, the BPM's will automatically return to PITCH SLID-
ERS (10) pitch value. Holding down this button will give a maximum of -16% pitch. Use this function
to slow to another playing music source. Be sure to notice that this function is a momentary pitch
adjustment, for a more precise adjustment use the PITCH SLIDER (10) to match the BPM's with
another playing music source.
