active. The LED associated with each USB source will glow when
selected. The function can only be selected while in pause mode.
19. CONTROL FOLDER. Turn FOLDER knob to search the desired
folder. Turning the control clockwise the clock we forward in the
list of folders. Turning in the opposite direction to clockwise, we
backwards. To search folders quickly press the FOLDER and turn
the control wheel (Jog Wheel (8)).
Keep the button pressed for 2 seconds to enter the internal menu
(Setup Mode). Further information on “internal menu” section on
page 12.
20. BANK BUTTONS 1 to 4: These buttons are used to store 4
points CUE / Loops / CUE-loops. Each button can store a CUE POINT
or a LOOP. When SAVE button is lit, select the desired bank button
(1, 2, 3, 4) which store a cue point, the LED will turn red, or if you
store a LOOP will turn green. Once stored CUES or LOOPS pressing
the desired bank (1, 2, 3, 4) the music will instantly play and the
LED of the selected bank will begin to flash.
21. EFFECTS AND HOLD BUTTONS. SYNCRON has four
configurable effects in time and ratio. Being TIME (X) the parameter
that determines the acoustic behavior of the effect. Ratio (Y) the
parameter that determines the effect signal ratio versus the original
sound effect is played.
ECHO EFFECT. This button is to activate and deactivate the ECHO
effect. The ECHO effect provides an echo to output signal.
To understand the ECHO effect, first we will introduce the DELAY
concept:
This function allows a delay sound with beat. The delay effect is
repeated only once.
ECHO effect allows a delay sound depending on TIME parameter.
The delayed signal will be repeated several times upon the setting
of the Time parameter.
FLANGER EFFECT. This button is used to activate and deactivate the
flanger effect. FLANGER effect distorts the output signal and creates
an effect similar to the frequency of progressive and out of it. Also
similar to that produced by an oscillating phase change (some
people call it “jet” effect). We can represent the effect by the
following graph (representing the original wave form versus the
amended and added to the original):
HOLD BUTTON. For the correct explanation of this section we must
advance the HOLD function, activated by the HOLD button. Pressing
the button is light up. Once down, we set the value of the effect
parameters we are using. If the HOLD button is not selected, the
buttons doesn't lit, any manipulation of effects parameters be
temporary. When stop manipulating this parameter, it backs to its
original value.
FILTER EFFECT. This button activate/deactivate the filter effect. This
effect changes the tonality of the music depending on the type of
filter applied and the value of time parameter. We can represent the
effect by the following graph:
SKID EFFECT. This button is used to activate and deactivate the
slide effect. Skid effect simulates the sudden stop of a turntable,
such as pressing the stop button on a turntable. This effect is
supported only in CDJ mode.
SKID function is enabled by default in the SCRATCH VINYL and A.
CUE mode. Therefore in this case the start and stop speed is
determined by the parameters X and Y we have previously
established, without having to select SKID.
You can modify the start time of your player.
Start: With the skid button activated (LED lit) select the TIME button
(X). See that in the upper part of the display shows the
nomenclature ST (start) followed by time in milliseconds. Moving
the Jog Wheel you will be able to modify the start from 0 (maximum
speed boot) to 9999msec (maximum slow start.)
Stop: With active skid button (LED lit) select the RATIO (Y). See that
in the upper part of the display shows the nomenclature BT (brake)
followed by time in milliseconds. Moving the Jog Wheel can change
the stop from 0 (maximum speed stop) until 9999msec (maximum
slow stop).
NOTE: If the HOLD function isn’t activated, changes in the
parameters of the effect will be momentary, that is to sat not be
memorized
22. CLEAR BUTTON. Press the CLEAR button, the button lights up,
then select the buttons BANK (1 ~ 4) to be deleted. Or hold down
the CLEAR button and click through the buttons BANK to be
deleted.
23. Y BUTTON (RATIO). This button is used to adjust the
parameters relationship value. You can press the RATIO (Y) and turn
the JOG WHEEL to adjust the parameters relationship value. When
the HOLD function is not activated, the changes in effect
parameters are momentary, therefore not be stored.
(Y) RATIO PARAMETER MODIFICATION BY THE WHEEL
(Y) RATIO PARAMETER button (Y). Parameter Balance Dry / Wet
This button sets the parameter "Ratio" of the effect we are applying.
Press the RATIO button, it lights up, while we manipulated the
wheel, we modify the parameter.
1) If the HOLD button is not active any change of the parameter will
be momentary
2) If the HOLD button is active any change of the parameter is
permanent.
