During playback, press the MASTER TEMPO button. ÷ The MT indicator will appear in the display. 2. Move the TEMPO slider to change the playing speed. ÷ Even when the music's speed changes, the music pitch does not change. Using Digital Jog Break During playback, press one of the DIGITAL JOG BREAK buttons (JET, ZIP, WAH); in the display, the indicator corresponding to the selected effect will flash, and the effect will be applied to the sound in proportion to the amount the jog dial is rotated. ÷ When the jog dial is released, the sound will gradu- ally return to the original source sound alone. 7 What is JET? JET means to change the delay time by rotating the jog dial, thus mixing a short delay with the playback sound. Conventional DJ technique has been to use 2 players, starting the same track simultaneously on both players, then introducing a slight delay on one of the players, mixing the two sounds so as to produce the effect of a "jet engine." This function allows you to produce this sound effect easily using a single player. 7 What is ZIP? The pitch of the playback sound is changed in accordance with the rotation of the jog dial, allowing you to radically change the tonal pitch of the playback sound. When the dial is held rotated in the decreasing direction, a sound can be created virtually indistinguishable from stopping the rotation of an analog record. 7 What is WAH? When the jog dial is rotated, a filter changing the cutoff frequency is applied to the playback sound, in accordance with the amount the dial is rotated. This allows the DJ to extract and play back desired parts from the playback sound. Using the HOLD function Press the HOLD button while the DIGITAL JOG BREAK function is in effect; in the display, the indicator corresponding to the selected effect will switch from flashing to steadily lighted, and the amount of effect currently being applied to the sound will remain steady, even if the jog dial is released. ÷ When the HOLD function is in effect, the time display will periodically show the HOLD indicator as noted below.
