OPERATIONS
Digital Jog Break
Press one of the DIGITAL JOG BREAK buttons (JET, ZIP,
WAH) during playback.
The selected effect’s indicator in the display will flash, and the ef-
fect will change corresponding in response to the rotation of the
jog dial.
When Digital Jog Break function is ON, the jog indicator will flash.
JET
Changes the delay time in response to rotation of the jog dial, and
adds a short delay sound to the original, thereby causing an interfer-
ence between the sounds and creating a “swooshing” effect.
The delay time corresponds to the jog dial’s rotation and changes
between 0 ms (when jog dial is completely stopped) to a maxi-
mum of 3 ms.
When the jog dial is rotated continuously, the delay time repeti-
tively changes between 0–3 ms.
When rotation of the jog dial stops, the sound will gradually settle
back to the original sound.
The setting is canceled when the disc is ejected.
ZIP
Changes the pitch in response to the turning of the jog dial, thereby
changing the playback sound.
The pitch change corresponds to the turning of the jog dial; when
the jog dial is stopped the pitch change is 0 %. When the jog dial is
turned clockwise, the pitch changes within the maximum of 100 %
(1 octave higher than the original sound). When the jog dial is
turned counterclockwise, the pitch changes within the maximum
of –1500 % (15 octaves lower than the original sound, a non-audi-
ble frequency).
When rotation of the jog dial stops, the sound will gradually settle
back into the original sound.
The setting is canceled when the disc is ejected.
WAH
Adds a –12 dB/octave filter with cutoff frequency that changes in re-
sponse to jog dial rotation.
The filter changes into a maximum 4 kHz high-pass filter when the
jog dial is turned clockwise; the filter changes into a minimum 150
Hz low-pass filter when the jog dial is turned counterclockwise.

Jog dial
When rotation of the jog dial stops, the sound gradually returns to
the original sound.
The setting is canceled when the disc is ejected.
[HOLD function]
Used to maintain the effect that has been created by the turning of
the jog dial even after the jog dial’s rotation is stopped.
Press the HOLD button during usage of Digital Jog Break
function.
The [JET], [ZIP], or [WAH] indicator in the display stops flashing
and lights steadily, and the effect created at that point is main-
tained so that the jog dial’s turning can be stopped.
When the Time Mode is selected and HOLD function is turned on,
a HOLD indicator ([JET-HOLD], [ZIP-HOLD], [WAH-HOLD]) will be
shown in intervals in the section where the time is displayed.
When TEXT mode is selected, this will not be displayed.
When the HOLD function is turned ON, even if another effect is
selected, the setting prior to the new effect selection will be pre-
served in memory so long as hold is not turned off.
Cue Point Settings
Once a cue point has been stored in memory, it can be used during
playback to set the player in the cue standby mode (ready to begin
playback from the cueing position by pressing the CUE button).
1. During playback, press the PLAY/PAUSE button (6) to
pause playback at the point you wish to set as cue point.
2. Search for the precise position of the cue point.
Using frame numbers to specify cue points.
Cue points may be specified in 1-frame units (where 75 frames
are equivalent to 1 second).
Use the jog dial or the forward or reverse SEARCH button (1,
¡) to advance to the desired frame. Each rotation of the jog
dial corresponds to 48 frames in the specified direction; by
pressing the SEARCH button (1, ¡) frames will advance 1
frame in the specified direction. During the playback of MP3s,
only files inside the same folder can be searched.
Listening to the sound to determine the cue point.
While turning the jog dial slowly, return the track to the point
immediately before the desired playback point (The cue point
will be the point directly after the sound which can be heard
during the cueing pause).
3. Press the CUE button when the frame number or sound
has reached the desired cueing point.
The sound is muted, and the time display lights steadily when
the cue point has been stored in memory.
Each time a new cue point is stored to memory, the previous
cue point will be erased.
[Changing the cue point]
1. Press the CUE button during playback.
This will take you back to the set cue point.
2. Press the SEARCH button (1, ¡) and set to audible
pause mode.
3. Go through steps 2 and 3 of “Cue Point Settings” men-
tioned above.
7 REALTIME CUE
During playback, press the IN/REALTIME CUE/HOT LOOP
button at the desired cueing point.
This point will be set as a new cue point.
7 Back Cue (returning to cue point)
1. Press the CUE button during playback.
This will take you back to the set cue point.
During the playback of MP3 files, back cue can be performed
only within the same folder. As long as a new cue point is not
overwritten, the cue point will be saved after folder search as
well.
2. Press the PLAY/PAUSE button (6).
Playback will instantly start from the set cue point.
Applying Master Tempo
Press the MASTER TEMPO button during playback.
The MASTER TEMPO button and the [MT] indicator in the display will
light, and the speed (tempo) can be changed using the TEMPO con-
trol slider without changing the pitch (key).
Due to digital processing of the sound, the sound quality will drop.
