BOP EFFECT: The Bop Effect is a stutter effect that is similar to turntable scratching. You can use this effect

to create tricks in your mixing.

JOG WHEEL TOUCH SENSITIVITY: This function works with the SCRATCH effects. This function allows the

play and cue commands to be controled by tapping on the touch sensitive jog wheel.

ACTIVATING TOUCH SENSITIVITY: Before you can use the JOG WHEEL

(13) to control the play and cue commands you must first activate the jog

wheel touch sensitivity. To activate the touch sensitivity mode, be sure the

FX SELECT LED (21) is glowing green. Once the FX SELECT LED (21) is

glowing green, press and hold the SCRATCH BUTTON (19) until it begins to

flash red repeatedly. This will activate touch sensitivity mode.

IN PLAYBACK MODE: While in play mode and when the touch sensitivity

function is active, the JOG WHEEL (13) can be used to return the unit to

last cue point. Simply touch the JOG WHEEL (13) and unit will immediately

return to the last set cue point and playback without music interruption.

Essentially the JOG WHEEL (13) becomes a BOP EFFECT.

IN CUE MODE: While in cue mode and when the touch sensitivity function

is active, tapping on the JOG WHEEL (13) can be used to start playback. The

unit will continue to playback until the JOG WHEEL (13) is released. Once

the JOG WHEEL (13) is released the unit will return to the last cue point.
