USING THE FADER START FUNCTION By connecting the optional CD players CDJ-500G and CDJ-500 to CH1 and CH2, the player can be started using the channel fader or cross fader controls.

This means that by increasing the mixer fader control, the pause of the player will be released and the song starts immediately automatically. The cross fader can also be used to perform fader start play. By returning the fader to the original position, as the player will be returned to the cue point (back cue), sampler playing can also be performed. (DJM-500 fader start play can be performed even when combined with the CDJ-500G and CDJ-500 . However, back cue play can be performed only when combined with the CDJ-500 .) A CDJ-500 Control cable B CDJ-500 CROSS FADER DJM-500 Cross Fader Start Play and Back Cue Play A can be started just by moving the cross fader control from right to left during standby when A is at the cue point. Likewise, B can also be started just by moving the cross fader control from left to right during standby when B is at the cue point. At the same time, A will back cue (returns to the cue point). Starting the Cross Fader Starting the Channel fader 1 Turn on the cross fader switch. 2 Turn on the fader start switch (CH-1 or CH-2) of the channel connected to the player to be controlled. 3 Select the channel connecting the player with the assign switch. 4 Minimize the cross fader of the selected channel fully. (The example is the case of connecting the player to CH-1.)

The cue point may be preset in the CDJ-500 . In this case, there is no need for the player to standby at the cue point. After playing starts, if the fader control is completely returned to the original position, the player will return to the cue point and set into the standby state. 17
