1.EJECT – Pressing will open or close the disc tray on the transport.

2.JOG WHEEL – The jog wheel serves many functions depending on its current mode.

a)If a track is not playing, the JOG WHEEL will search slowly through a track's frames. To set a new cue point, rotate the JOG WHEEL then begin playback when you have determined the proper position. Press CUE to return to that cue point.

b)If a track is playing, the JOG WHEEL will temporarily bend the pitch of the track. Rotating the JOG WHEEL clockwise temporarily speeds it up while rotating it counterclockwise slows it down. This is a useful tool for beatmatching.

c)When the SEARCH button has been activated, rotating the JOG WHEEL will scan rapidly through the track.

d)When the SCRATCH button has been activated, rotating the JOG WHEEL will "scratch" over the audio of the track, like a needle on a record.

3.SCRATCH – Activates or deactivates Scratch Mode. While activated, rotating the JOG WHEEL creates a 'scratch' effect. The LED indicator will be blue when Scratch Mode is active. (Note: This feature is not optimal for searching through long audio passages. For longer searches, activate the SEARCH function.)

4.SEARCH – Pressing this button allows you to use the JOG WHEEL to rapidly scan through the music. The LED indicator will be red when Search Mode is active.

5.CUE – During playback, pressing CUE will return to the cue point and will pause the track. Holding down CUE will start playback from the cue point, and releasing CUE will cause it to return to that point and will pause the track. Also, if the track is paused, you can use the JOG WHEEL to locate a new cue point.

To create a cue point, move the JOG WHEEL when the track is paused. The cue point will be set once you start playback from that point (by pressing PLAY / PAUSE).

6.PLAY / PAUSE – Plays or pauses the track. (Note: When paused, pressing PLAY will only set a new cue point if the JOG WHEEL has been moved.)

7.TRACK SELECT – Used to select the track to be played.

8.FOLDER – Press this button to enter Folder Mode. The folder name will be displayed on the LCD. Here, you can press and hold the FOLDER button and use the TRACK SELECT buttons to select a folder. Release FOLDER to enter the selected folder. (When inside a folder, use the TRACK SELECT buttons to select track.) Press FOLDER again to exit Folder Mode.

9.+10 – Press this button to skip through your CD track listing 10 tracks at a time.

10.LOOP IN – Sets a new cue point or the start point of a loop (a "Loop In" point) during playback.

11.LOOP OUT – Sets the end point of a loop (a "Loop Out" point) and starts playing the loop. While playing a loop, press LOOP OUT to release it from the loop and continue normal playback.

12.RELOOP – Plays the track immediately from the beginning of a loop (and reactivates the loop).

13.PITCH – Activates or deactivates the PITCH FADER. You can also hold down this button and press the PITCH BEND – /+ buttons to adjust the range of the PITCH FADER (±4%, 8%, and 16%). The current range will be indicated on the LCD and by different LED colors.

14.PITCH FADER – The pitch can be changed by pressing the PITCH button so a PITCH LED is lit, then moving the sliding fader. The pitch will not be changed if the PITCH LED is off.

15.PITCH BEND -/+ – You can use these two pitch bend buttons to temporarily adjust the pitch and tempo of the music.

4

16.KEYLOCK – Engages the Keylock feature, which locks the musical key of the track to the original key (as if it were playing with 0% pitch adjustment). You can then adjust the tempo of the track without affecting its key or pitch.

17.TAP – Tap this button in time with the beats of the music on that deck. This will enter a new BPM ("beats per minute") reading for that track, which will be shown on the LCD. You can allow the automatic beat-counter to read the track's BPMs by holding it down until "AUTOBPM" is shown on the LCD.

18.RELAY – Press this button to activate or deactivate Relay Play. When activated, relay play will cause the opposite deck to start playing whenever the currently playing deck stops. Playback will alternate between the two decks until one of the decks reaches the end of its disc or until Relay Play is deactivated.

19.TIME – Switches the time display between "ELAPSED" playing time, "REMAINING" time on the track, and "TOTAL" remaining time on the entire CD.

20.SNGL – Press this button to toggle between Single Play (the deck will stop at the end of each track) or Continuous Play (the entire disc will be played without interruption).

21.ID-3 TAG – Press this button to display additional MP3 information. Pressing it more than once will toggle through all the available information, including the track title, artist name, name of the current folder, and file name.

22.LCD – Indicates all the functions, as they are occurring, with the CD.

23.INPUT SELECTOR – Selects the input source to be routed to the corresponding channel. Input jacks are located on the rear panel.

24.CHANNEL GAIN – Adjusts the channel's pre-fader and pre-EQ gain level.

25.CHANNEL TREBLE – Adjusts the high (treble) frequencies of the corresponding channel.

26.CHANNEL MID – Adjusts the mid-range frequencies of the corresponding channel.

27.CHANNEL BASS – Adjusts the low (bass) frequencies of the corresponding channel.

28.CHANNEL FADER – Adjusts the audio level on the corresponding channel.

29.CHANNEL CUE – Sends pre-fader audio to the Cue Channel for headphone monitoring.

30.CUE MIX – Turn to mix between Cue and Program in the Headphone channel. When all the way to the left, only channels routed to CUE will be heard. When all the way right, only the Program mix will be heard.

31.CUE GAIN – Adjusts the audio level of the Cue channel.

32.HEADPHONES – Connect your 1/4" or 1/8" headphones to this output for cueing and mix monitoring.

33.MIC ON / OFF – Mutes and unmutes the microphone signal. When muted,

the microphone signal will not be routed to the Master mix.

34.CROSSFADER – Blends audio playing between Channels 1 and 2. Sliding this to the left plays Channel 1 and sliding to the right plays Channel 2.

Note: When connecting microphones, make sure the mic channel's gain knob is at the lowest setting (or turn the mic channel off) before connecting it.

35.FADER START – When fader start is "ON," moving the CROSSFADER to a side will cause that deck to start playing automatically (if it is paused). When fader start is "OFF," you will need to start playback on each deck manually.

36.STEREO LEVEL INDICATOR – Displays the audio level of the Program mix.

37.MASTER VOLUME – Adjusts the output volume of the Program mix.

38.ZONE VOLUME – Controls the audio level of the Zone output.

1.VOLTAGE SELECTOR -- Set this switch to the voltage for your location.

2.POWER PLUG CONNECTOR – Plug your supplied power cord in here.

3.POWER SWITCH – Turn the machine on and off with this button. The unit should always be shut down with this button first before any external power is removed. Typically it is recommended that the CD player is powered on before amplifiers and powered off after amplifiers.

4.LINE | PHONO INPUTS (RCA) – Connect your audio sources to these inputs. These inputs can accept both line and phono-level signals.

5.LINE | PHONO SWITCH – Flip this switch to the appropriate position, depending on the device connected to the LINE | PHONO INPUTS. If you are using phono-level turntables, set this switch to "PHONO" to provide the additional amplification needed for phono-level signals. If using a line-level device, such as a CD player or sampler, set this switch to "LINE."

6.GROUNDING TERMINAL – If using phono-level turntables with a grounding wire, connect the grounding wire to these terminals. If you experience a low "hum" or "buzz", this could mean that your turntables are not grounded.

Note: Some turntables have a grounding wire built into the RCA connection and, therefore, nothing needs to be connected to the grounding terminal.

7.AUX INPUT (RCA) – Connect an additional line-level audio source to this input. To route the AUX signal to the mix, you will need to flip the AUX channel's INPUT SELECTOR (located on the top panel) to "AUX."

8.MIC 1 INPUT – Connect a microphone to this input with an XLR or 1/4"

cable.

9.MIC 2 INPUT – If you would like to use an additional 1/4" microphone on Channel 2, connect it to this input. To route the MIC2 signal to the mix, you will need to flip the AUX channel's INPUT SELECTOR (located on the top panel) to "MIC2."

Note: When connecting microphones, make sure the mic channel's gain knob is at the lowest setting, or turn the mic channel off, before connecting it.

10.MASTER OUTPUT (XLR) – Connect this low-impedance XLR output to a PA system or powered monitors. The level of this output is controlled with the MASTER fader on the top panel.

11.MASTER OUTPUT (RCA) – Use standard RCA cables to connect this output to a speaker or amplifier system. The level of this output is controlled by the MASTER knob on the top panel.

12.ZONE OUTPUT (RCA) – Connect this output to an external monitoring device, such as a PA system, powered monitors, or a home stereo. The level of this output with the ZONE knob on the top panel.

1.EJECT – Al presionar se abrirá o cerrará la bandeja que transporta el disco.

2.RUEDA DE AVANCE POR PASOS – Esta rueda cumple diversas funciones que dependen del modo en que se encuentra.

a.Si no se está reproduciendo una pista, la RUEDA DE AVANCE POR PASOS busca lentamente a lo largo de los frames de la pista. Para determinar un nuevo punto de cue, gire la RUEDA y comience a reproducir una vez que haya determinado la posición adecuada. Pulse CUE para volver a ese punto de cue.

b.Si se está reproduciendo una pista, la RUEDA inflexiona temporalmente el pitch de la misma. Al girar la RUEDA en sentido horario, la acelera temporalmente, mientras que si se gira en sentido antihorario la desacelera. Ésta es una herramienta útil para igualar el beat.

c.Cuando está activado el botón SEARCH (Buscar), al girar la RUEDA DE AVANCE POR PASOS se explora rápidamente la pista.

d.Cuando está activado el botón SCRATCH (Rayar), al girar la RUEDA DE AVANCE POR PASOS se "raya" el audio de una pista, como una púa en un disco.

3.RAYAR – Activa o desactiva el modo de rayado. Cuando se activa, al girar la RUEDA DE AVANCE POR PASOS se crea un efecto 'scratch' (Rayado). Cuando el modo de rayado está activo, el LED indicador se ilumina con luz azul. (Nota: Esta característica no resulta óptima para buscar a lo largo de pasajes de audio prolongados. Para realizar búsquedas más prolongadas, active la función SEARCH (Buscar.)

4.BUSCAR – Si pulsa este botón, es posible usar la RUEDA DE AVANCE POR PASOS para explorar rápidamente la música. Cuando el modo de búsqueda está activo, el LED indicador se ilumina con luz roja.

5.CUE – Durante la reproducción, al pulsar CUE se vuelve al punto de cue y se pone la pista en pausa. Manteniendo pulsado CUE, la reproducción comienza desde el punto de cue y, al soltarlo, vuelve a ese punto y la pista se pone en pausa. Asimismo, si la pista está en pausa, es posible usar la RUEDA DE AVANCE POR PASOS para localizar un nuevo punto de cue.

Para crear un punto de cue, mueva la RUEDA DE AVANCE POR PASOS cuando la pista se pone en pausa. El punto de cue se establece una vez que comience la reproducción desde ese punto (pulsando REPRODUCIR / PAUSA).

6.REPRODUCIR / PAUSA – Reproduce o pone en pausa la pista. (Nota: Cuando está en pausa, al pulsar REPRODUCIR sólo se establece un nuevo punto de cue si se ha movido la RUEDA DE AVANCE POR PASOS.)

7.TRACK (Botones de pista) – Utilizados para seleccionar la pista que se va a reproducir.

8.CARPETA - Pulse este botón para entrar al modo Fólder (Carpeta). El nombre de la carpeta aparece en la pantalla LCD. Aquí, puede pulsar y retener el botón FOLDER y usar los botones TRACK SELECT para seleccionar una carpeta. Suelte FOLDER para entrar a la carpeta seleccionada (Cuando esté dentro de una carpeta, use los botones TRACK SELECT (Selección de pista) para seleccionar la pista.) Pulse FOLDER otra vez para salir del modo de carpeta.

9.+10 – Pulse este botón para saltar por la lista de pistas de CD de a 10 pistas por vez.

10.ENTRADA AL LOOP – Establece un nuevo punto de cue o el punto inicial de un loop (punto "Loop In") durante la reproducción.

11.SALIDA DEL LOOP – Establece el punto final de un loop (punto "Loop Out") y comienza a reproducir dicho loop. Mientras se reproduce un loop, pulse LOOP OUT para liberarlo del loop y continuar la reproducción normal.

12.REPETICIÓN DE LOOP – Reproduce la pista inmediatamente desde el comienzo de un loop (y reactiva dicho loop).

13.PITCH – Activa o desactiva el PITCH FADER (Fader de pitch). También es posible mantener pulsado este botón y pulsar los botones PITCH BEND –/+ (Inflexión del pitch) para ajustar el rango de PITCH FADER (±4%, 8% y 16%). El rango vigente se indica en la pantalla LCD y mediante diferentes colores del LED.
