adjustment and will remain set until the pitch slider is moved or the pitch function has been
turned off. This adjustment can be made with or without a disc in the drive. The pitch
adjustment will remain even if a disc has been removed and will reflect on any other disc
loaded into the player. That is to say, if you set a +2% pitch on one disc, remove that disc and
insert another, that disc too will have a +2% pitch. The amount of pitch being applied will be
displayed in the
LCD (20)
.
