through songs. The more you turn the wheel in either direction the faster you search through the music.
5. JOG WHEEL - (INNER RING) This jog wheel serves two functions depending on the mode you are working in.

or set to a cue point. To set a new frame cue point, spin the wheel then press PLAY (9) when you
have determined the proper position. Press CUE (7) to return to the “CUE POINT”.

counterclockwise it will fall to -16%. The pitch bend is determined on how fast you turn the wheel.
6. TRACK BUTTON - This button is used to select a BACK SKIP track to be played.
7. CUE - Pressing the CUE BUTTON during play provides a return to the position at which play was started. If
PAUSE is used before CUE or a CUE POINT was set, that will become the cue point. Alternately pressing the
PLAY button and the CUE BUTTON allows the CD to be played from the same position any number of times.
