5 Button OPEN/CLOSE Ejects and retracts the CD; while playing a CD, the CD drive is locked

8 VFD display Shows all functions of the unit and information of the data carriers such

as bargraph, title number, pitch value, single playback mode, loops,

play or pause, repeat settings, title and folder names and elapsed,

remain or total remain time (audio CD only) indicated in minutes,

seconds and frames (1/75 second)

9 Button IN Sets the starting point of a loop (corresponding LED lights red)

10 Button OUT Sets the end point of a continuous loop which is instantly started (IN

and OUT LEDs will be flashing). The loop will continue to play until the

OUT button is pressed once again; then the IN and OUT LEDs will

stop flashing but will remain on to indicate that a loop has been

memorized and is ready to be engaged. To program another loop,

simply redefine the starting and the end point with the IN and OUT

buttons. To set the loop points precisely to 1 frame (1/75 second),

enter pause mode and use the jogdial (set to search mode) to go to the

exact spot.

12 Jogdial As default setting the jogdial can be used for pitch bend, i.e. a

temporary change of speed. In search mode the jogdial can be used

for fast forward and reverse, as well as for a fine adjustment to cue and

loop points. In scratch mode it can be used for scratch effects. The

operating mode is set with the JOG MODE button.
