User Manual

In this mode, you can skip through the track by placing the needle at another position (“nee
dle-dropping”) or by seeking to a new location on your CD player.
12.5.2 Relative Tracking Mode
In Relative Tracking mode, the actual position on the Control Vinyl/CD doesn’t correspond
with the position in the track. You still have manual control over the track, such as
scratching and nudging, but you will notice that the track stays at the same position when
you lift the needle and place it somewhere else on the Control Vinyl (or if you seek to a
new location on the Control CD).
► Press the button with the representation of a record without tonearm to activate Rela
tive Tracking mode.
Relative Tracking mode is activated automatically when entering a loop or when synching a
track to the Master.
12.5.3 Internal Mode
Internal Playback means that you control playback on the Deck via the Play button and the
software Tempo Fader—the external turntable or CD player is ignored in this mode.
This comes in handy in case of a hardware problem or if you’re using only one turntable or
CD player to control two or more Decks.
