Reverse play
★This function is not supported when the rear panel NORMAL/DJ switch is set to the NORMAL position.
Set the DIRECTION FWD/REV select switch to the REV posi- tion (forward).
The reverse indicator will light and play will commence in the reverse direction.
¶The jog dial’s operation to accelerate/decelerate playback is reversed.

About fader start play
★This function is not supported when the rear panel NORMAL/DJ switch is set to the NORMAL position.
When the accessory control cord is used to connect this player’s CON- TROL connector to the CONTROL connector of a Pioneer DJ mixer (sold separately), the operation of the DJ mixer’s channel fader lever can be used to release the player from cue standby and start playback instantly. Fader start can also be started by using the cross fader operation; when the fader lever is returned to its original position, the player also returns to its cue point (back cue) and enters cue standby.
Advanced Operations
Relay play with two players
★This function is not supported when the rear panel NORMAL/DJ
switch is set to the NORMAL position.
Relay play can be performed by using the supplied accessory control cord to connect the CONTROL connectors of this player and another CDJ series CD player.
¶Set the auto cue functions of the two players to ON (auto cue (A.CUE) indicator lights in the display).
¶If connected to a DJ mixer, set the mixer’s fader control to its center position.
1.Begin playback on the first player.
2.When the currently playing track ends, the other player (in standby mode) will automatically begin playback.
3.Set the first player to cue standby at the beginning of the next desired track.
¶By repeating these steps, you can perform continuous automatic relay play between the two players.
¶By replacing the disc on the waiting player and cueing it to a de- sired track, an unending variety of tracks can be played.
¶By setting a cue point on the waiting player, playback can be set to begin automatically from any point in any desired track (☞ P.40, “Setting cue points”).
Notes:
¶Relay play may not occur smoothly if the two players’ audio output terminals are not connected to the same DJ mixer.
¶If power is interrupted to the currently playing player, the other player will automatically begin playback.
¶Since fader start and relay play require that the same control connectors be connected in different ways, they cannot be performed simultaneously.
