LOADING A TRACK TO A DECK
Once you have located the track you want to play
in the library you can load it using with the Denon
DJ DN-HC5000, the mouse or the keyboard.
DN-HC5000:
LOAD TO A to load to the left deck.
LOAD TO B to load to the right deck.
KEYBOARD:
Shift + Left arrow to load to the left deck.
Shift + Right Arrow to load to the right deck.
MOUSE:
Drag the track to either the left or right virtual
deck.
TIP: Use the keyboard shortcuts Shift + Alt
+ Left Arrow or Shift + Alt + Right Arrow to
unload a track from the Virtual Deck.
STARTING PLAYBACK
To begin playback press the PLAY / PAUSE
button for that deck on the DN-HC5000. Playback
will start from the beginning of the track.
Pressing PLAY / PAUSE during playback will
pause playback at the current position. Pressing
it again will resume playback from that position.
NOTE: When "Play from start" is selected on
the setup screen, the deck will try to skip any
silence at the start of the track, and play from
the start of the audio. See page#?
KEY LOCK
Normally when changing the speed of a track you
will hear a change in the pitch of the music. With
KEYLOCK on, when you change the speed the
pitch will stay the same. This is useful to avoid
two tracks sounding out of tune when mixing
them together. Press the KEY ADJ button on the
DN-HC5000 to turn keylock on and off. KEYLOCK
has scratch detection, so that it automatically
turns off when scratching for a natural scratching
sound.
VIRTUAL DECK
The Virtual Deck shows the speed and position
of a track. When a track is loaded to the virtual
deck it will change from black to white with a
black stripe. As the track progresses, the virtual
deck will rotate. The circular progress bar around
the edge is a visual representation of the position
within the track, and will begin flashing 20
seconds from the end of the track to warn you
that the track is nearing its end.
TRACK DISPLAY
When a track is loaded, the track name, artist,
length and pitched BPM are displayed in the
track title bar. If any of this information is not
contained in the file it will not be displayed.
Displayed below this are pitch, playback, repeat
and auto loop.
The time and remaining time are displayed in
minutes and seconds.
The pitched BPM is the recalculated BPM value
of the track relative to the position of the pitch
slider.
Pitch displays the pitch value relative to the
position of the pitch slider.
Playback allows you to select which playback
mode you want. Single means once the end of
the track is reached you will hear silence. Cont
means when the end of the track is reached
the next track in the playlist will be loaded and
playback will continue.
If repeat is on, when the end of the track is
reached the track will return to the start and
playback will continue.
Auto loop displays the current loop slot. For more
on loops see page 13
CENSOR/REVERSE
Pressing the CENSOR button on the DN-HC5000
reverses playback temporarily. When released
playback resumes from where the playhead
would have been if censor was not pressed. It is
used to censor out portions of a track. Pressing
SHIFT + CENSOR will toggle reverse playback.
CONTINUOUS PLAYBACK
Press SHIFT + TIME to enable continous
playback. With this setting turned on, when
one track finishes playing the next track starts
automatically. Load from a crate to play through
the songs in that crate, or from your library to play
through your entire library.
NOTE: Play from start must be checked in the
setup screen for autoplay to work correctly.
RELAY MODE
Pressing RELAY on the DN-HC5000 will put ITCH
into relay mode, which is an extension of the
continuous playback behavior. When relay mode
is on the playback mode in the ITCH screen will
change to display relay for both decks.
In relay mode when the track on the first deck
is nearing the end it will start to fade out and
the next track in the crate, playlist or selection
will start playing on the other deck. ITCH will
continue fading back and forth between tracks
until relay mode is switched off or the end of the
crate, playlist or selection is reached.
NOTE: The crossfader on your mixer must be
set to the middle position for relay mode to
work properly so that both tracks are audible.
Press SHIFT + RELAY to change the length of
the crossfade between 0, 5 and 10 seconds.
TIP: This is can also be changed in the general
tab of the setup screen.
TAP TEMPO
If a track has no BPM information stored the tap
tempo box is displayed where the BPM usually
is displayed in the track title bar. Pressing alt-
space bar activates the tempo tapper for the left
virtual deck (press alt-space bar a second time
to activate the tempo tapper on the right virtual
deck). To calculate, tap the space bar along with
the beat. After you’ve tapped the first beat, you
can switch to double time tapping, halftime, start
of each bar etc. The range is set by the first two
taps, after that you can switch to any steady
rhythm you feel comfortable with – quarter
notes, half note, whole notes. The esc key resets
the BPM, the enter key saves the BPM to the
track. You can also use the mouse if you prefer
by clicking in the tap tempo box and clicking the
mouse button in time.
NOTE: You don’t need to be at Zero on the
pitch slider, ITCH does the math for you.
TRACK OVERVIEW DISPLAY
This area provides a complete overview of the
waveform of the track and includes a marker
to show the current position within the track.
This view is useful for finding transitions within
the track. The waveform is colored according
to the spectrum of the sound; red representing
low frequency bass sounds, green representing
mid frequency sounds and blue representing
high frequency treble sounds. You can jump to
different positions within the track by clicking on
the Track Overview display. Grey lines behind the
overview show the length of the track; a thin grey
line every minute, and a thick grey line every 5
minutes. If you have not analyzed your files the
overview will be filled when you load the track
onto a Virtual Deck.
TIP: Analyze files before you play.
