1. PITCH SLIDER (7):
This function will increase or decrease the tracks playback speed or "PITCH."
The maximum pitch percentage manipulation in this function is +/-100%. The
PITCH SLIDER
is used to decrease or increase the playback pitch. If the slider
is moved up (towards the top of the unit) the pitch will decrease, if the slider is
moved down (towards the bottom of the unit) the pitch will increase. The
PITCH
SLIDER
adjustment can be changed to range from +/-4%, +/-8%, +/-16%, or
+/-100% (See changing "PITCH SLIDER PERCENTAGE RANGE" on the next
page). The pitch adjustments will effect normal playback and loops only when
the
PITCH ON/OFF BUTTON (3)
is turned on. The pitch adjustments will not
affect your samples.

PITCH ADJUSTMENTS:
The different pitch adjustments allow a track's or a loop's playback speed to be manipulated. This speed
manipulation is commonly used to beat match between two or more music sources such as a turntable or
another CD player. The playback speed may be increased or decreased by a factor of +/-100. The next section
details the different pitch manipulation schemes.
