PITCH BEND:
This function will momentarily increase or decrease a tracks playback speed. There are two ways to operate
this function with the
(-) & (+) PITCH BUTTONS (25)
or with the
JOG WHEEL (19).
The maximum pitch bend
percentage allowed is +/- 16%. The pitch bend function will work in conjunction with the
PITCH SLIDER
(23)
pitch setting. The
PITCH SLIDER (23)
adjustment can be changed to range from +/-8%, +/-12%, or
+/-16% (See changing "PITCH SLIDER PERCENTAGE RANGE" on page 16). For example, if the
PITCH
SLIDER (23)
is set to a 2% pitch gain the pitch bending process will begin at 2% and wi
ll continue to
the maximum of -
/+16%.
PITCH BEND BUTTONS (15 & 16):
The
(+) PITCH BEND BUTTON (15 & 16)
will provide a speed bump and the
(-) PITCH BEND BUTTON (15)
will provide a slow down. The extent to which the speed changes is proportionate to the amount of time the
button is pressed. For example, if the
(+) PITCH BEND BUTTON (16)
is held down continuously, the disc speed
will increases and will continue to increase until reaches a maximum of 100% speed gain. When you release
the
(+) PITCH BEND BUTTON (16)
the disc speed will automati
c
ally return to
it’s previous speed.
Holding down or tapping on the
(+) PITCH
BEND BUTTON (16)
will provide a speed
bump in the playback pitch.
Holding down or tapping on the
(-) PITCH BEND BUTTON (15)
will provide a slow down in the
playback pitch.

JOG WHEEL (19):
The
JOG WHEEL (19)
will temporarily bend the pitch if a track is in
play mode Rotating the wheel in a clockwise direction will increase your
track pitch and rotating the wheel in a counter-clockwise direction will
slow your track pitch. The speed you rotate the
JOG WHEEL (19)
will
determine pitch bend percentage (%).
