scale of the speed slider(15). You can /-4%, +/-8%, +/-16% and +/-100%.
13. PITCH LOCK Button:
(Master tempo) activates the Pitch Lock function. This
function allows you to make adjustments to a tracks speed using the pitch control
without altering its tonal pitch. This button turns red when the Pitch Lock is on.
NOTE:
be informed that the pitch lock function has its limitations. From a certain speed deviation
(depends on the music style) the pitch lock won’t be able to keep the same pitch anymore. First
you will hear a small distortion that becomes more important at higher speed deviations. This is
not always a disadvantage: at very low speeds you can also use it as a special “distortion effect”!

This button is used to turn the speed function on and off.
15. SPEED slider:
Press the SPEED button(14), so it is lit. The speed can be
changed up to +/-100% by moving the fader. The speed will not change if the

•
Single track:
player stops at the end of each track and waits at the beginning
of the next track. The player will wait at the first music note of each track. This
means that badly indexed CDs will not interfere with the instant start
capabilities of this CD player. This is a very useful feature for deejays!
18. PITCH BEND buttons:
The speed rises while the “+ button” is pressed and
returns to the original pitch when the button is released. The speed drops when
the “– button” is pressed and returns to the original pitch when the button is
released. These buttons can be used to synchronize the beats of 2 tracks.
19. HOT CUE buttons
: 4 programmable buttons where you can store ordinary cue

CUE memories are erased. Look further is this manual for more information on
how to program cue points etc.

the wheel then press PLAY(8) or LOOP IN(3) when you have determined the
proper position. Press CUE to return to the “CUE POINT”.
