Advanced Pitch Control Features

The PDX-2300 features advanced digital pitch control features. Through three different controls you are able to adjust the playing pitch by up to +/-60%.

qPITCH BEND & ULTRA SHIFT

Using the pitch bend joystick will allow you to quickly pull or push the playing pitch of this unit. To pull means to slow down, push means to speed up. Pushing the joystick towards the tone arm will result in you being able to pull (minus) the playing pitch. Pushing the joystick in the opposite direction will result in you being able to push (positive) the playing pitch. It is possible to set the increment of pitch adjustment or the pitch span to 1,2,3, & 6%. The basic pitch span setting is 2%. To change the pitch span setting press the joystick down. Pushing the joystick down once will set the span to 3%, twice 6%, three times 1% and a fourth time will set it back to 2%. You can also ultra shift the pitch by +/-50% by pushing the joystick left or right. A movement to the left will speed up the pitch momentarily whilst a push to the right will slow down the pitch momentarily. This momentary ultra shift is always set to +/-50%.

NOTE

When the power is turned on, pitch bend is set at ±2%.
