cutoff frequency of the playback sound when the JOG WHEEL (16) is
rotated. This allows the DJ to extract and play back specific parts
from the playback sound. The BRAKE button (29) allows adjustment in
the speed at which the CD slows down until it stops.

SUGGESTION: To avoid confusion while setting cue points, keep the time
display in ELAPSED TIME mode. When you use the DIRECT ACCESS
BUTTONS to set a cue, the track, minute, second and frame are always in
elapsed time. If the unit’s time display is in TRACK REMAIN or TOTAL
REMAIN mode, the track, minute, second and frame displayed will be the
remain time and not the track, minute, second and frame you entered.
2. To fine tune a cue point, pause play at the memorized cue point (the
cue LED will glow and the PLAY/PAUSE LED will blink), then use the
JOG WHEEL (16) or SEARCH (9) buttons to scan frame by frame (1/
75th of a second) to where you want play to begin (the CUE LED will
blink while you scan). Press the PLAY/PAUSE (11) button to save the
new cue point.
Note: During fine tuning there will be a stutter effect (to help you find the
beat). The stuttering effect will end when you press the PLAY/PAUSE (11)
button to save the cue point. Also, during fine tuning if you hold down the
SEARCH (9) buttons, the unit will scan quickly after 10 frames.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
• If the disk will not play, check to see if the disc was loaded correctly
(label side up). Also check the disc for excessive dirt, scratches, etc.
• If the disc turns but there is no sound, check the cable connections. If
they are okay, check your amplifier or receiver.
• If the CD skips, check the CD for dirt or scratches. Do not assume that
the CD player is defective. Many CDs are recorded out of spec and
will skip on most or all CD players. Before sending the unit in for repair,
try playing a CD that you are sure plays properly.
