4.1.7 Pre-listening
The HP VOLUME knob adjusts the volume levels of the headphone output (this affects both
the 1/4-inch and the 1/8-inch jacks on the Z2's front panel in the same way). The CUE MIX
knob determines whether you hear the main mix only, the cue channel only, or both signals on
your headphones.
Pre-listening to a track works the following way:
1. Load Decks A and B each with a track and begin playback (see also ↑4.1.2, Browsing and
Loading).
2. Turn the CUE MIX knob to the center position.
3. Adjust the HP VOLUME knob to a comfortable level.
4. With the channel faders up, move the crossfader back and forth to hear one track, then
the other.
5. Move the crossfader all the way to channel A so that you are only hearing the track on
Deck A.
6. Press the Cue button B below the CUE MIX knob.
→
The button lights up, showing that Deck B is now sent to the Cue channel, which you now
hear in the headphones.
Notice that now, no matter where you move the crossfader, you will still hear Deck B, because
its cue is on.
►
Press Cue button B again to toggle it off and press Cue button A.
→
You will now hear the track playing on Deck A, no matter what position the crossfader is
in.
You can also send only the Cue signal (without the mix signal) to the headphones or only the
mix signal (without the cue signal):
1. Press both Cue buttons A and B so that they are both active (illuminated).
2. Turn the CUE MIX knob all the way to the left.
3. Now toggle the two Cue buttons on and off. Notice that when both Cue buttons are off,
there is no signal at all coming through the headphones.
4. Press both Cue buttons so that they are on.
