4 Controller Overview
PLAYBACK CONTROLS
10. Cue
: If no Cue Point is assigned, or if the deck is paused, press Cue to set a Current Cue Point. While the
media is playing, press it again to skip back to the Current Cue Point and pause playback. You can hold down Cue
to start playback from the Current Cue Point. Release it to skip back to the Current Cue Point and pause playback.
You can hold down Cue and Play/Pause simultaneously to start playback from the Current Cue Point. Release both
buttons to allow playback to continue.
Shift function Cue/Set: defines a cue point on the fly.
11. Play/Pause: starts or pauses playback of a media file.
Shift function Cue Play: jumps the media back to the Current Cue Point without stopping playback.
12. Jog Wheel
: the jog wheel can be used for a number of functions. When the media is first loaded you can use
the jog wheel to cue up the media. When a media is playing and Vinyl mode is active you can use the top panel of
the jog wheel to scratch and the jog wheel margin to temporarily change the pitch of the media. When a media
is playing and Vinyl mode is not active you can use the jog wheel to temporarily change the pitch of the media.
Note: this will automatically revert back to the default pitch when you let go of the jog wheel.
Shift function Jog Seek: skips through the media at high speed.
PITCH CONTROLS
13. Pitch bend
: hold these buttons down to temporarily alter the speed the playing media. When released, the
media playback will return to the speed designated by the pitch slider.
Shift function Fine: hold these buttons down to temporarily and finely alter the speed the playing media.
14. Pitch slider: changes the speed of the currently playing media.
15. Speed/Tempo/Hybrid select: selects Speed or Tempo or Hybrid.
If Speed mode has been selected you can adjust the pitch like with a normal turntable.
If the Tempo mode has been activated it is possible to change the pitch via the pitch fader without influencing the
tone pitch. This means that the song’s tonal key remains the same while changing its speed.
The hybrid mode is a combination of the speed and the tempo warping modes, hence its name. It is equivalent to
the tempo mode in the (-33%; +33%) speed range and to the speed mode below -66% and above +66%. In the
remaining speed ranges (-66%; -33%) and (33%; 66%), the pitch is gradually increased or decreased to smooth
the pitch transitions.This mode gives the best of the speed and tempo modes: a more natural sound at extreme
speed values, and a wide constant-pitch range around 0% speed.
Shift function
Pitch range
: sets the range of the pitch slider. Push this button to change it between 4%, 6%, 8%,
16%, 32% and 100%.
16. Vinyl
: while a track is playing with this option turned on, you can use the jog wheel to scratch your media; if
this button is off, the jog wheel will allow you to change the speed.
17. Sync: synchronizes the BPM and the beat with the adjacent player.
Shift function Match: only synchronizes the BPM with the adjacent player.
