Pitch Control, Pitch Bend, and Pitch Ranges
The Pitch Control allows you to speed up or slow down the playback of a
track by a desired percentage. The HDTT-5000 offers Pitch Ranges of
4, 8, 16, and 24%, in order to provide a wide level of flexibility when
manipulating digital music files. In all modes, 0.05% Pitch Resolution can
be achieved, allowing for a more precise level of adjustment.
To toggle Pitch On or Off (the unit will not respond to pitch changes
when Pitch is Off), press both the Pitch Bend (+) and Pitch Bend (-) but-
tons simultaneously. The LED indicator will illuminate when Pitch has been
turned On.
To change Pitch Ranges, press Shift+Pitch Bend (+) OR Pitch Bend (-)
buttons simultaneously. The Pitch Display on the LCD screen of that
respective side will momentarily display the new Pitch Range.
For a momentary change in Pitch, the Pitch Bend (+) and Pitch Bend (-)
buttons will temporarily increase or decrease pitch relative to the amount
of time either button is held down.
When the Jog Mode is not engaged (LED remains unlit), you may also
use the Jog Wheel to perform a Pitch Bend.
Key Adjust and Master Tempo
The Key Adjust and Master Tempo controls allow you to have independ-
ent controls of Key Adjust and Tempo. When Master Tempo and Key
adjust are enabled, the Pitch Bend (+) and Pitch Bend (-) buttons
become Key Adjust buttons, with a range of +-5 half steps, displayed in
Sharp/Flat for +/-, and the Pitch Slider and Jog Wheel control Master
Tempo and Master Tempo bend.
To enable Master Tempo and Key Adjust, first you need to press the
Master Tempo button. If you press Key alone Key will not be enabled,
and must be turned on within Master Tempo mode.
To disengage Key Adjust, simply press the Key Adjust button at any time,
and the Key will return to it’s original value. To return to Pitch mode sim-
ply press Master Tempo or press Pitch Bend (+) and Pitch Bend (-) . If
Key adjust is enabled then that will be turned off as well at this time.
