BASIC OPERATIONS 

 

Eject: Press to load or eject the disc.   The drawer will automatically close to protect the tray from 

accidental damage while open.  NOTE: Tray will not open if the disc is in play.  In order to program 

the automatic close time press and hold 

 followed by 

.   The display will indicate 

options of 30 seconds, 60 seconds, 120 seconds, and (no) for no auto close.  This setting will be 
remembered at power down.
 

 
 
Play/Stutter: Starts the music from either the first set cue point or the last point of pause.   By starting 

from the last pause point while the unit is paused a new cue point is set.   Pressing this button 
while the unit is in play restarts the unit from the last cue point, creating a “stutter” effect.    

 

Startup speed of initial play can be adjusted by pressing 

 followed by 

 and then 

rotating the wheel until the desired seconds of startup are shown.  Pressing 

 followed by 

 twice will toggle startup between 0 to the desired seconds.   This setting will be remembered 

at power down. 

 
 
Pause:
 Stops the music while in play.  Pressing play following this sets a new cue point.  Holding down the 

button while scratching or stuttering the music will stop the music at the current position, allowing 
you to capture a loop in or cue point.  Pause speed (BRAKING) can be adjusted, by pressing 

 followed by 

 and then rotating the wheel until the desired seconds of startup are 

shown.  Pressing 

 followed by 

 twice will toggle startup from 0 to the desired 

seconds.   This setting will be remembered at power down. 

    
 
Cue:
 Returns and pauses the music at the last set cue point.   The cue point is the last place in which the 

unit was paused and then play was pressed.   Pressing a second time allows for temporary play of 
this point. You can easily edit the cue point by turning the wheel.  As you rotate the wheel the 
music will sound.  By stopping the wheel and pressing play a new point is set.    

 

The sound during wheel rotation can be adjusted from a smooth “scratch” sound to 
the tradition “stutter” sound.  To alternate modes hold 

 followed by 

.  The display will indicate “SCRATCH” when the scratch sound is active.  This 

indication will go away when the style of cue is stutter. This setting will be 
remembered at power down. 

 
 
Time:
 switches the time modes on the display between elapsed playing time, remaining time on the track 

and remaining time on the entire CD. This setting will be remembered at power down. 

 
 
Single:
 toggles the unit to play back just one track at a time (single) or play continuously through all tracks 

and then start over repeating the CD infinitely (continuous). This setting will be remembered at 
power down.
 

 
 
Track Selection: Rotate the dial to quickly find the desired track.   To advance by +10, press the knob 

while rotating. 

 
    
Search:
 Pressing the selector changes the mode of the jog wheel to a search mode.  Search 

will remain active while the wheel is being moved and for 8 seconds after.  Moving the 
wheel clockwise rapidly moves forward through the music.   Counterclockwise moves 
backwards through the music.  There are 2 search speeds depending upon wheel 
rotation speed.
