END
This function will momentarily increase or decrease a tracks playback speed. There are two
ways to operate this function with the (-) & (+) Pitch Buttons (
14
) or with the Jog Wheel (
1
).
The maximum pitch bend percentage allowed is +/-16%. The pitch bend function will work in
conjunction with the Pitch Slider (
3
) pitch setting.
Pitch Bend Buttons (14)
The (+) Pitch Bend button (
14
) will provide a speed bump and the (-) Pitch Bend button (
14
)
will provide a slowdown. The maximum range of the Pitch Bend buttons is 16%. The extent
to which the speed changes are proportionate to the amount of time the button is pressed.
For example, if the (+) Pitch Bend button (
14
) is held down continuously, the disc speed will
increase and will continue to increase until it reaches a maximum of 16% speed gain. When
you release the (+) Pitch Bend button (
14
) the disc speed will automatically return to its
previous speed.
