How to Adjust the Pitch
•
Pitch Slider
With your fi rst deck playing and your second deck cued, start playback in sync with the downbeat of the song
playing on the other deck. Quickly adjust the pitch using the PITCH SLIDER
10
to match the tempo of deck one.
Moving the SLIDER up (-) will decrease the tempo, while moving it down (+) will increase the tempo.
•
Pitch Bending
Use Pitch Bend Buttons
11
As you are fi nding the right tempo, the track position will drift until it is fi ne-tuned and the tempo is matched.
Pitch Bending provides a quick fi x to keep the position as close as possible to deck one. Pressing the PITCH
BEND – or PITCH BEND + button will decrease or increase the speed of playback temporarily. The extent to
which the speed is changed is proportionate to the amount of time the button is pressed. For example, if the
PITCH BEND + button is held in continuously, the speed continues to increase until the maximum limit set by the
PITCH RANGE is reached. Once the PITCH BEND + button is released the pitch will return to the pitch set by the
PITCH SLIDER.
•
Use Jog Wheel
16
The JOG WHEEL can also be used to temporarily bend the pitch of the music during normal playback. During
playback rotate the WHEEL clockwise to speed up and counterclockwise to slow down. The speed that you
rotate the JOG WHEEL determines the percent of pitch bend. It is recommended that you use the outer edge
of the JOG WHEEL for this type of control, as touching the top surface may cause interruption of playback in
certain modes of operation.

Key Lock
This function allows the tempo or BPM of the music to be altered without affecting the musical key. While this
button is illuminated, the key will be locked at zero.
How to Set a Seamless Loop
•
Creating a Seamless Loop
Step 1 : Press the PLAY/PAUSE button
13
to begin playback. The button illuminates solid green (not fl ashing).
Step 2 : Set the start point of the seamless loop by pressing the IN button
2
at the desired point in time.
Step 3 :
Set the out point of the loop by pressing the OUT button
3
at the desired point in time. Playback will
immediately return to the previously set in point and play to the out point, creating a seamless loop
without interruption. When the loop is activated, the RELOOP indicator on the VFD screen will now be
fl ashing. In the same time, the LOOP IN and LOOP OUT button are fl ashing.
