Pitch

 

Section

 

 

The

 

pitch

 

section

 

represents

 

a

 

traditional

 

pitch

 

control

 

found

 

on

 

a

 

CD

 

player

 

or

 

turntable.

 

However,

 

the

 

key

 

difference

 

is

 

that

 

the

 

pitch

 

control

 

is

 

motorized

 

to

 

support

 

functionality

 

such

 

as

 

auto

‐

sync

 

in

 

an

 

application

 

and

 

updating

 

position

 

when

 

switching

 

virtual

 

decks.

 

It’s

 

important

 

to

 

not

 

stop

 

the

 

motorized

 

fader

 

while

 

it’s

 

moving

 

to

 

prevent

 

damage.

 

 

The

 

RESET

 

button

 

will

 

center

 

the

 

pitch

 

slider

 

to

 

0%

 

automatically.

 

The

 

RANGE

 

button

 

will

 

change

 

the

 

sensitivity

 

of

 

the

 

pitch

 

slider

 

(as

 

long

 

as

 

the

 

application

 

supports

 

the

 

ranges).

 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

 

 

 

3.6

 

Transport

 

Section

 

 

The

 

transport

 

section

 

is

 

analogous

 

to

 

the

 

transport

 

controls

on

 

a

 

CD

 

player

 

however

 

it

 

places

 

a

 

few

 

extra

 

buttons

 

for

 

common

 

functions

 

found

 

in

 

DJ

 

applications

 

(such

 

as

 

auto

 

sync).

 

Each

 

of

 

the

 

4

 

main

 

transport

 

buttons

 

are

 

multi

 

color

 

back

 

lit

 

to

 

indicate

 

status.

 

 

Along

 

with

 

the

 

4

 

main

 

transport

 

buttons

 

are

 

seek

 

forward

 

and

 

backwards

 

as

 

well

 

as

 

scan

 

forward

 

and

 

backwards.

 

Above

 

the

 

seek

 

and

 

scan

 

buttons

 

is

 

a

 

freely

 

assignable

 

backlit

 

button.
