Pitch and tempo changes

There are four ways to change the way a CD is played back, using menu items in the Tempo Key menu: Tempo con- trol (TMP), VSA (Variable Speed Audi- tion) setup (VSA), Key control (KEY), and Fine tuning (FINE)

Tempo control

Tempo control allows you to change the tempo of a track.

Tap the TMP/KEY / CD EFF key to enter the Tempo Key menu, and se- lect TMP by pressing either the PREV or NEXT key. TEMPO blinks on the display.

When VSA is ON (see below), the set- tings you can choose are: -50, -32, -16, -12, -8, -4, 0 (off), +4, +8, +12, and +16%. Press the UP or DOWN keys to set the value.

When VSA is OFF you can change the setting between –50 and +16% in 1% steps.

Press either the UP or DOWN key to set the tempo.When the tempo is set to a value other than zero, TEMPO shows in the home display mode.

VSA

When VSA is ON, you can change the tempo without changing the key.

Tap the TMP/KEY / CD EFF key to en- ter the Tempo Key menu, select VSA by pressing either the PREV or NEXT key. Press either the UP or DOWN key to choose either ON or OFF. TEMPO blinks on the display. When the VSA is set to ON, the letters VSA are shown in the display.

NOTE

If the tempo control value is not set to 0 and you change VSA from OFF to ON, the tempo value will be automatically reset to a “VSA ON value.” For example, if the value is [-33] when VSA is OFF, it will automatically be ad- justed to [-50] when you turn VSA ON.

Key control

Key control changes the key of the mu- sic up or down by six semitones.

Tap the TMP/KEY / CD EFF key to enter the Tempo Key menu, and se- lect KEY by pressing either the PREV or NEXT key. KEY blinks on the display. Press either the UP or DOWN key to

set the value for the key. The range is ± 6 semitones (I6 – 0 (off) – O6). When the key is set to a value other than zero, KEY shows in the home display mode.

Fine tuning

Fine tuning changes the key of the mu- sic by cents (100 cents = 1 semitone). This allows you to make fine adjust- ments and allow for slight tuning dif- ferences between your instruments and the CD.

Tap the TMP/KEY / CD EFF key to enter the Tempo Key menu, and se- lect FINE by pressing either the PREV or NEXT key. KEY blinks on the display. Press either the UP or DOWN key to set the fine tuning value.

The range for adjustment is ±50 cents (-50 – 0 (off) – +50). If the key con- trol is set to O6, however, the available range of fine tuning is between -50 – 0, and when it is set to I6, the fine tun- ing range is between 0 – +50. When the fine tuning is set to a value other than zero, KEY shows in the home dis- play mode.
