DJ Player Operation
Auto cueing
This function automatically sets the cue point (☞ P. 15) just before actual
sound begins when a disc is loaded, or when performing track search or
changing tracks.
If the search continues for ten seconds without finding the point, the
cue point is set at the track’s beginning.
¶ Turning auto cueing on and off
Pressing the TIME MODE/AUTO CUE button and holding it down
for a second or more causes auto cueing to be alternately turned on
and off.
When AUTO CUE is on, the [A.CUE] indicator will be lit up.
¶ AUTO CUE on/off status is stored in memory and persists even
when the power is turned off.
¶ It can change the AUTO CUE level.
7 Changing the AUTO CUE level
1. Press the TIME MODE/AUTO CUE button for over 5 sec-
onds.
¶ The display will indicate [A.CUE–60db] (in the original state).
2. Press the CUE LOOP CALL button (2, 3) to change the
level.
¶ It can choose from –36 dB, –42 dB, –48 dB, –54 dB, –60 dB, –66 dB,
–72 dB and –78 dB.
¶ When the TIME MODE/AUTO CUE button is pressed or 15 sec-
onds elapses, the level change mode is canceled.
¶ Even if you turn the power off, the set level will remain in memory.
Starting playback
1. Insert a disc in the player.
This unit spins discs at high speeds to provide high performance. As
a result, disc loading takes a couple of seconds.
2. If auto cueing is on, press the PLAY/PAUSE button (6).
¶ Press the PLAY/PAUSE button only after the current time lights
in the display. The silent portion at the beginning of the displayed
track will be skipped and playback will begin instantaneously from
the first bars of the track.
¶ When jog mode is set to [VINYL], the playback may accelerate
slowly until it reaches full speed. (☞ “To pause playback”).
When one track’s playback ends, the next track is cued. The cue indi-
cator (the outer ring on the CUE button) lights, and the outer ring on
the PLAY/PAUSE button flashes to indicate the unit is in the play
standby mode.
When the PLAY/PAUSE button (6) is pressed, the next track be-
gins its playback.
If auto cueing is off, playback will begin automatically from
the first track.
¶
When auto cueing is off, playback will continue after the first track
has been played, with all subsequent tracks being played in sequence.
To stop playback
1. Press the EJECT button (0) when the EJECT UNLOCK/
LOCK switch is set to [UNLOCK].
When the EJECT UNLOCK/LOCK switch is set to [LOCK],
press the PLAY/PAUSE button (6) during playback, or
when a Cue point has been set, press the CUE button
(back cue) before pressing the EJECT button (0) to eject
the disc.
¶ Playback will stop and the disc will be ejected.
¶ Note that the CDJ-1000MK3 does not come with a stop button.
Resume function
¶
When the EJECT UNLOCK/LOCK switch is in the [UNLOCK] position,
even if the EJECT button is pressed by mistake, if the PLAY/PAUSE
button is pressed quickly (before the [EJECT] indicator lights in the dis-
play), the unit will revert to the status it was in before the EJECT button
was pressed. However, the audio output will stop during that time.
¶ Following disc eject, if the same disc is reinserted, the unit will return
to the same status it was in before the disc was ejected (with excep-
tion of loop).
¶ Following disc eject, if the FOLDER SEARCH button (|, \) or TRACK
SEARCH button (4, ¢) is pressed, the resume function will be
canceled.
To pause playback
During playback, press the PLAY/PAUSE button (6).
¶ The outer rings of the PLAY/PAUSE button and CUE button will flash,
and playback will be interrupted.
¶ If the PLAY/PAUSE button is pressed again, the button’s outer ring
will light and playback will resume.
¶ In CDJ mode, broken playback sound will be output even during pause.
If you wish for no sound to be output, lower the output level of the
audio mixer.
¶ In VINYL mode, setting the VINYL SPEED ADJUST TOUCH/BRAKE
dial modifies the speed of deceleration until playback reaches full
pause. Rotating the dial clockwise causes the disc to decelerate slowly
before the pause.
¶ In VINYL mode, setting the VINYL SPEED ADJUST RELEASE/
START dial modifies the speed at which the disc accelerates when
pause is released until reaching full playback speed. Rotating the dial
clockwise causes the disc to accelerate more slowly to full speed.
¶ After setting the unit to pause, if no subsequent operation is performed
for 100 minutes, the disc rotation will automatically stop. In this event,
pressing the PLAY/PAUSE button will cause playback to resume.
Fast forward/Fast reverse

Press and hold the ¡ button for fast forward the disc; press and hold
the 1 button for fast reverse.

tracks inside the same folder.
¶ When playing MP3, fast forward/fast reverse times may be slower
depending on the track.
7 Super-fast search
Rotate the jog dial while pressing one of the SEARCH but-
tons (1, ¡).
¶ Hold down one of the SEARCH buttons (1, ¡) while turning the
jog dial in the desired direction to enter super-fast forward or super-
fast reverse mode.
¶ The speed of the search operation varies in response to the speed at
which the jog dial is turned.
¶ During super-fast search, the search direction is determined by the
direction the jog dial is turned. The direction of the pressed SEARCH
button (1, ¡) is ignored.
¶ When the jog dial rotation stops, the unit returns to playback mode.
¶ When the SEARCH button (1, ¡) is released, super-fast search is
canceled.
¶ When playing MP3, fast forward/fast reverse is supported only tracks
inside the same folder.
¶ When playing MP3, fast forward/fast reverse times may be slower
depending on the track.
