FEATURES BPM Sampler 3-Band Equalizer and Kill Recognizes music BPM and records the set number of beats, making loop play possible that matches the BPM of the music being played. This 3-band equalizer corresponds to the HI, MID, and LOW channels. The attenuation level also serves as a kill function, which can decrease the level to –26dB. BPM Counter Variety of Effects The auto BPM counter provided makes music tempo visible to the eye.

PART NAMES AND FUNCTIONS BPM Measurement Range Display/ BPM Measurement Range Selector Switches: ÷ Used for making selections from the following: 70 to 139, 91 to 180, 70 to 180, and manual mode. When both LEDs are lit, the 70 to 180 setting applies. When neither LED is lit, manual mode applies. Set the BPM band to match the music for which BPM will be measured. ÷ For details on manual mode, see “Measuring BPM” on pages 14 and 15.
USING THE EFFECT/SAMPLER FUNCTIONS With the built-in digital signal processor (DSP), sound effects can be enjoyed and BPM measured. Features of Various Effectors Auto BPM Counter Automatically measures music BPM (beats per minute; tempo) and displays it digitally. It not only counts the beat of bass sounds but also calculates (using a computer) the music’s original BPM, which DJs require, and displays it digitally.
USING THE EFFECT/SAMPLER FUNCTIONS 5. FILTER 10. SAMPLER REC Changes the tone greatly by shifting the filter’s frequency in units of 1/2, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32 beats. Recognizes music BPM and samples in terms of the set beat. Example Example 1/2 3/4 1 2 1/1 2/1 4/1 4 8 10 BEAT Frequency 1 cycle = 1/2, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 or 32 beat 6. FLANGER Quickly and easily produces 1-cycle flanger effect for beats of 1/2, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32. 11.
USING THE EFFECT/SAMPLER FUNCTIONS Measuring BPM Measurement and display of the BPM of channels selected with the auto BPM counter selector and of channels selected with the effect/sampler channel selector switch make it easy to mix music of different tempos. (Range of measurement: 70.0 to 180.0 BPM) Example: Displaying the BPM of music for auto BPM counter selector CH-1 and effect/sampler channel selector switch 2 (CH-2).
USING THE EFFECT/SAMPLER FUNCTIONS Measuring BPM in Manual Mode 7 When BPM cannot be measured in auto BPM mode: If auto BPM measurement is not possible, use the tap switch for manual input. ÷ When the tap switch is pressed in time to the music’s beat, the light in both BPM measurement range displays will turn off and manual mode will go into effect. ÷ The BPM value input with the tap switch will be displayed on the effector/BPM display’s lower counter, and the display on the upper counter will turn off.
USING THE EFFECT/SAMPLER FUNCTIONS Delay, Echo, Auto Pan, Auto Trans, Filter, and Flanger Operations Items Set for Each Effect Effect Effect/sampler parameter 1 (TIME) Effect/sampler parameter 2 (LEVEL/DEPTH) DELAY Delay time Setting range: 1 to 3500mSec, in 1msec steps Effect mix ratio (Balance between original and delayed sound levels) ECHO Delay time Setting range: 1 to 3500mSec, in 1msec steps Effect mix ratio (Balance between original and echo sound levels) PAN (Auto pan) Pan time (changeove
USING THE EFFECT/SAMPLER FUNCTIONS 1 Set the effect/sampler selector switch to DELAY. 2 Set the effect/sampler channel selector switch to 2. ÷ LED “2” on the effect parameter/BPM display will light. ÷ The BPM of the music input to CH-2 will be displayed on the BPM display’s counter. * The BPM band that matches the music on CH-2 can be selected with the BPM measurement range selector switch. * LED will blink if BPM cannot be measured for more than 2 seconds.
USING THE EFFECT/SAMPLER FUNCTIONS Operating Reverb and Pitch Shifter Effector Settings Effect Effect/sampler parameter 1 (TIME) Effect/sampler parameter 2 (LEVEL/DEPTH) REVERB Reverb time (echo time) Setting range: 1 to 100%, in 1% steps Effect mix ratio (Balance between original and reverb sound levels) PITCH (Pitch Shifter) Delay time Setting range: 0 to ±100%, in 1% steps Effect mix ratio (Balance between original and pitch-shifted sound levels) Example: Display when music on CH-3 has been pit
USING THE EFFECT/SAMPLER FUNCTIONS Precautions: ÷ If the channel has been changed with the effect/sampler channel selector switch when delay, echo (pages 16 and 17), reverb and similar effects have been turned on, all of the reverberation of the prior channel’s effects will be output. ÷ Only operate the effect/sampler selector switch when effects are off (when the effect/sampler ON/OFF switch is lit orange). Operating it with effects on could generate noise.
USING THE EFFECT/SAMPLER FUNCTIONS Using Sampler Recording The unit’s built-in sampler recognizes the BPM of music to be recorded and automatically records the specified number of beats (1, 2, 4, 8, or 16) only. The maximum recording time is eight seconds. Example: When recording 8 beats of the piece on CH-1 (BPM=120).
USING THE EFFECT/SAMPLER FUNCTIONS Using Sampler Playback Functions Following are the three available methods for playing back the sound recorded with the unit’s built-in sampler. SINGLE PLAY Plays only while the effect/sampler ON/OFF is being pressed. LOOP PLAY Repeatedly plays the recorded sound. STRETCH LOOP PLAY Based on the BPM of the music to be mixed, repeatedly plays the sound recorded within the set number of beats (1, 2, 4, 8, or 16).
USING THE FADER START FUNCTION If the separately sold CDJ-100S, CDJ700S and CDJ-500 II players are connected to CH-1 or CH-2, they can be started using the channel fader volume or cross fader volume control, as long as the control cables have been connected. In addition, the sound recorded with the unit’s built-in sampler can also be started using the cross fader volume control.
USING THE FADER START FUNCTION Starting with the Channel Fader 1 Turn on the fader start switch (CH-1 or CH-2) of the channel connected to the CD player to be controlled. The following is an example of starting a CD player connected to CH-1. CH-1 Example: 10 2 Push the channel fader volume control all the way to the bottom. CH-1 9 8 7 OFF 6 ON 5 4 3 Set the cue point of the CD player and set the player to standby at it.
