⇨ The three orange LEDs will follow your finger movement to the left, just as the playhead in
the waveform.
Alternatively, you can jump directly to an absolute position in the track by pressing
SHIFT + placing your finger on the desired position on the Touch Strip.
3.1.2 Using Touch Strip to Nudge/Pitchbend
Traditional DJ's who don't have an automatic Sync function at hand are used to physically
nudging, twisting, and tweaking a conventional turntable with either Timecode vinyl or tradi-
tional vinyl to temporarily speed up or slow down a track and align the beats manually. The S5
allows you to work in a similar way by using the Touch Strip:
The LEDs above the Touch Strip provide visual information about a Deck's phase alignment.
They help you make the necessary tempo bend adjustments to get your tracks aligned.
The following tutorial will demonstrate how to manually beatmatch the two demo tracks "Tech-
no 1" loaded on Deck A and "Techno 2" loaded on Deck B by means of the Touch Strip, with-
out using the Sync function.
First step: Playing the Tracks
1. On Deck
A press the PLAY button to start playback. The Deck will be assigned to MASTER.
2. On Deck
B press the SYNC button to disable Sync. The SYNC button's backlight goes dim.
