CONTROLS AND FUNCTIONS
1. SEARCH WHEEL (OUTER RING): This wheel has 4 forward and 4 backward speed positions for
searching through songs. The more you turn the wheel in either direction the faster you will search
through the music.
2. JOG WHEEL (INNER RING): This jog wheel serves 2 functions depending on the mode you are
working in.
The jog wheel acts as a slow frame search (1/75sec) control when the CD is not playing but either
paused or set to a cue point. To set a new cue point, spin the wheel and press PLAY when you
have determined the proper position. Press CUE to return to the “CUE POINT”.
The jog wheel temporarily bends the pitch of the music up to +/-16% if the song is already playing
by rotating the wheel clockwise to speed up or counterclockwise to slow down. The amount of pitch
change is determined by the speed of rotation.
3. TRACK SEARCH Buttons: These buttons are used to select the track to be played. Forward skip &
back skip. Press the +10 button to skip 10 tracks at once.
4. CUE button: Pressing the CUE button during play provides an immediate return to the position at which
play was started. Playback is started immediately from the programmed cue point for as long as the
CUE button is pressed. The CD player jumps back to the cue point as soon as the CUE button is
released. Also with the unit in pause mode (Play/Pause LED blinks) the search and/or jog wheel is used
to set a different start point. By pressing "PLAY/PAUSE" button then "CUE", you can confirm this new
cue point. The CUE LED will light up since the cue button is pressed until the CD has returned to the
position at which play was started.
5. PLAY/PAUSE button: every time you press the PLAY/PAUSE button the CD player changes from play
to pause or from pause to play.
6. PITCH BEND buttons: The speed rises while the “+ button” is pressed and return to the original pitch
when the button is released. The pitch drops when the “– button” is pressed and returns to the original
pitch when the button is released. These buttons can be used to synchronize the beats of 2 tracks.
7. PITCH button: This button is used to turn the Pitch function on and off. If you want to change the speed
adjustment range (+/- 8%, +/- 12% , +/- 16%), press and hold PITCH button then press the PITCH
BEND+ to select.
8. PITCH slider: Press the PITCH button, the PITCH LED is on. The speed can be changed up to +/-16%
by moving the sliding fader. The speed will not change if the PITCH LED is off.
9. OPEN/CLOSE button: press this button to open and close the disc tray in the front of the main unit.
This button is disabled during playback. If the tray is not closed after 60sec. It will close automatically to
prevent mechanical damage.
10. TIME Button: The TIME button switches between elapsed playing time, remaining time in a selection
and total remaining time of the disc. (standard = remaining /track)
11. SGL/CTN Button: with this button you can choose between “single track mode” and “continuous play”.
Continuous play: the complete CD will be played without interruption. (mostly used in pubs)
Single track: player stops at the end of each track and waits at the beginning of the next track. The
player will wait at the first music note of each track.
12. PROGRAM Button: It is possible to program up to 20 tracks. After programming the tracks will be
played in the order you programmed. Follow the steps below for programming:
Press the PROGRAM button once, the led next to it turns on and the display shows “-- P-01 00”.
Choose the first track in your sequence and press the PROGRAM button. The first track is
programmed, the display shows “-- P-02 01”
Choose the second track in your sequence and press the PROGRAM button. The second track is
programmed, the display shows “-- P-03 02”
Continue these steps until you are finished.
Now simply press the “play/pause button” to start the sequence. The first track in your sequence
starts playing while the display shows”** P-01”
The programmed sequence plays in an endless loop until you stop the program mode by pressing the
PROGRAM button for about 2 seconds”. The led next to the PROGRAM button turns off and the
program memory is cleared.
13. LCD DISPLAY: Shows all important information needed during playback. Refer to the next chapter for
more information.
14. LOOP Button: Used to make the music play in a loop, follow the steps below to create a loop:
Make sure that the track is playing.
Press the LOOP button to set the beginning of the loop: led starts flashing.
Press the LOOP button again to set the end of the loop: led is on and the music starts playing in
loop mode.
Press the LOOP button again to stop the loop mode: the led turns off.
Note: the loop is not seamless so when the loop starts again, you will hear a small pause. This is normal
while this CD-player doesn’t use a buffer memory.
15. POWER ON/OFF switch: switches the CD-player on and off.
16. DISC TRAY: Use the OPEN/CLOSE buttons to open disc tray and put the CD in place.
17. MAINS input: connect the CD player to the 230V AC mains, using the supplied power-cord.
18. AUDIO output: Output for the audio signals from the CD-player. Use the supplied cinch/cinch cable to
connect this output to a CD/line input of your mixing unit.
19. DIGITAL OUT socket: Use this connector to connect the digital signal (S/PDIF format) to the input of a
digital amplifier or digital recorder (ex. Mini disc)
LCD DISPLAY
1. TRACK: Shows current track number.
2. TIME BAR: shows either time remaining or elapsed depending on the setting of the TIME button. Starts
flashing at the end of each track to alert the user to take action.
3. MINUTE: Shows “minutes” time information of current track.
4. SECOND: Shows “seconds” time information of current track.
5. FRAME: Shows “frame” time information of current track. (1 frame = 1/75thsec.)
6. SINGLE/CONTINUE: “single” appears when the unit is set to play just one track at a time. Otherwise the
CD will play continuously through all tracks. This function is controlled by the SGL/CTN button.

7. ELAPSED, TOTAL REMAIN: indicates that the time shown on the display is the track elapsed,
remaining or total remaining time.
8. PITCH DISPLAY: Shows the percentage change in pitch (speed) of the song.
HOW TO USE …
Most of the common functions are explained in the previous chapter “controls and functions” In this chapter
we talk about the functions that need a little more explanation.
PLAYING MP3 FILES:
The CD player automatically detects if a CD contains MP3 files. The MCD1.1 is able to read several
different MP3 formats but due to display limitations it can’t show the ID3-tags (song title/performer/…). The
CD may contain up to 999 MP3- files, spread over maximum 255 folders. When the MP3-files are sorted in
separate folders, the MCD1.1 will list all files as if no folders exist.
The MP3-files may have the following file extensions: .mp3 ~ .MP3 ~ .mP3 ~ .Mp3
Check the technical specifications to see which MP3-files are allowed.
PLAYING CD-R and CD-RW:
Apart from normal audio CD’s the MCD1.1 can play both CD-R (CD recordable) and CD-RW (CD
rewriteable). Please note that you should always use the “disc at once” and “track at once” disc writing
options! If the disc is multi session, it will only play the first session:
o if the first session is CD-DA you can only play CD-DA tracks.
o if the first session is MP3 you can only play MP3 files.
SLEEP MODE:
The CD player automatically shuts off the transport and laser after about 15 minutes (when in pause or
cue mode). This extends the life of your motor drive and laser. During sleep mode the display shows the
word “SLEEP”. To wake up the player, just press the cue or play button, the display turns to normal and is
ready to receive instructions.
STORING A CUE POINT:
Put the player in pause and use the jog/shuttle wheel to search the exact location for the cue point. Once
this location is found, press the PLAY/PAUSE button to set the new cue point. (the cue led flashes 2 times
to indicate that the new cue point is set and the track starts playing from this new cue point)
Once the cue point is programmed, just press the CUE button to recall it.
PITCH BENDING:
This function is used to put the beats of two tracks in perfect sync. This can be done in two ways:
PITCH BEND buttons: The speed increases or decreases respectively as long as the PITCH BEND+ or
PITCH BEND- button is pressed.
JOG WHEEL: During play mode the JOG WHEEL will temporarily bend the pitch of the music by turning
the JOG WHEEL clockwise to speed up or counterclockwise to slowdown. The rotation speed the JOG
WHEEL determines the percent of pitch bend.
