Page 8: Setting Cue Points
SETTING CUE POINTS PLAY and CUE: Pressing PLAY starts playback. Pressing CUE will return the track to the last place playback was started. This is called the Cue Point. By alternately pressing PLAY and CUE, the track may be returned and played from the Cue Point any number of times. This is called "back cueing." PLAY, PAUSE, and CUE: Pressing PLAY to start playback, pressing PAUSE, and pressing PLAY again will set a new Cue Point. - Page 9 PITCH BEND and JOG WHEEL: These controls temporarily change the tempo of the music so the beats of the two decks can be aligned.

- Page 15 SCRATCHING & EFFECTS SCRATCHING CDN88 PRO's JOG WHEEL allows you to scratch your music as you would on vinyl while using a DJ turntable. To engage Scratch Mode, press the SCRATCH button and move the JOG WHEEL as desired to scratch over the current track.
- Page 16 ECHO – Adds echo or delay to the music. Press and hold the ECHO button and turn the JOG WHEEL to select the length of echo by time division (as it relates the track's BPM) – 1/1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32, or 1/64. Turning the JOG WHEEL without holding the ECHO button allows you to fine- tune the length of echo.
